This game is a small demo of my next fangame. It will be my best fangame, it is very well crafted and pleasant to play. The final game will be released in a couple of days, in the meantime, enjoy this demo, which is nothing compared to what the real game itself is

A short but interesting needle game, it really speaks to some creativity of the maker to be attempting a variety of styles in a very simple game. There is a particularly interesting screen with a lot of disjointed spikes, which was a fun way to play with nontraditional screen layouts and spices up the generic corridor needle. There is also a cool section that plays around with save jumping! I love seeing this kind of thing, it manages to make gimmickless needle feel unique and creative.
There are a few technical issues with the game. First, it is impossible to load a save, requiring you to beat the game in one go. It's pretty short and easy, so this shouldn't be an issue for anyone, but at the same time this is a major issue that should be fixed in future releases. Secondly, the game launches with extremely loud music, I would recommend lower the volume a bit in advance. Finally, the game was uploaded as a standalone .exe file. This causes it to get incorrectly flagged by antivirus software, potentially deleting the game. I would highly recommend zipping up the game before uploading it, to prevent this.
Also, I would encourage you to add a readme. Particularly since you are using "real music" with lyrics that have some symbolic value, I would like to be able to find the name of the song in a readme so I can find it online and read the lyrics.
Overall, a game that manages to be interesting despite its humble nature. Despite that, a lot of the needle is pretty tame and generic, as well as poorly balanced, such as the plane jump thrown in. However, the game is fun for a very quick playthrough, and it has me excited for the upcoming full release.
