Very fun Uhuhu-like needle game. A few moving objects, and some minor gimmicks like sideways platforms and triggers. Good difficulty curve - it got tougher over time but stayed fun. The only save I wasn't a big fan of was the very final save, with a certain platform jump near the end of the segment becoming responsible for about a quarter of my overall playtime.
I would recommend to anyone wanting to chill out with some needle and play some interesting jumps without awkward gimmicks.

A pitch-perfect homage to the Uhuhu series, including persistent use of moving spikes and triggers in saves towards the end. There is also a liberal usage of platform boost setups, as well as the classic wacky spike shapes you'd expect to see. Every once in a while there is a platform stack that rockets you upwards like a tractor beam gone wild, and it's pretty fun to get launched by them. While I was close to rating this game as near perfect, it does feel like it went on just a bit too long--not to the degree other Uhuhu tributes have, but still maybe a tad longer than it should have. By now, I've been told this is an inherent part of the Uhuhu formula, and while I agree it's an element of the original games, I'm not sure it's worth emulating going forward. Then again, if a game is fun, maybe you don't want it to end? I often get the feeling of "is this the last screen' far too early in good games, so perhaps I'm not the best person to ask about this.
My first tourney clear (I think?) and a great time all around. My only direct complaint, besides the length, is the medley choice—it's not even a complaint, really, other than to say I only recognized one or two snippets, and they were so short I couldn't really enjoy them. That's more or less a failing of the 'anime medley' song prescription, not necessarily the game or the designer, so it's not a real fault... just part of the never-ending quest for the perfect soundtrack.
Gruhuhuvy all over.

Really interesting spikes!! It is overall easy, but one stage really mess me up.
