Generally first four stages were pretty fun, although first stage might be lacking, I still found it chill enough. The last stage was much more generic and precise than the others, not only it doesn't fit with the whole atmosphere, but it also has some bad jumps such as really precise last jump at the last screen, or the vstring jump at the same screen. Worth playing for the first four (or at least three in the middle) stages though, would recommend. Also the engine is weird, it had some weird input delay for me.

Pretty cool game split into two main warps, which I assume they follow the style of Emperor, Butterfly, or Noesis. Most of the saves were pretty fun, since they introduce a lot of old platforming gimmicks, just like three games I mentioned. It also has some traps, or triggers, which were not excessive at all, at least for me. I remember one save has a trap at the end of it but I think that's it. Bosses were good too, even though they might be too long or luck based. What I didn't like is two saves in the left warp with the atrocious first jumps. They were generally really awkward to do and consequently I didn't like rest of the saves. But overall, I mostly liked what this game offered and would recommend if you like old styled adventure games. The creator did a great job mimicking the style.

This is such a nice fangame, Probably one of my favorites. It's really hard but decent.

The second attack might actually be the most atrocious shit I've ever seen in an iwanna, even RNG aside.
Unlike what other reviews say, this isn't just needing to "be lucky" (although you will certainly need a lot of it to get anything even remotely avoidable); you also need to execute the few times you get lucky. And good luck doing that when everything is flying at mach 5 speeds. To put things into perspective, some people, like Mastermaxify, can beat this in a 2-4 minute interval with some regularity. I, myself, in 1334 attempts and 2 hours of grinding, was only able to make it to the 3rd attack *eight times.* You're expected to survive *four* attacks; none of my eight 3-rounders made it to round 4. Let that sink in.

I have found needle tech interesting for a long time, but strayed away for L games because of how unpleasant I found the gameplay. I've recently been feeling like giving them a chance so I picked up this game since it looked pretty doable. As I would soon find out, this is a joke game that uses the ancient Japan2 engine. I love games that are messed up and make you wonder how they even turned out this way. I don't know how I'd judge how much I enjoyed the gameplay itself, it was kinda annoying but decently satisfying to beat saves which I think is standard for L games. My favorite part was definitely figuring out how to do the saves because they are designed to abuse behaviors that are NOT standard engine behavior.
I'll detail them here:
-Bonking changes align??? If you bonk a block, while holding a direction it will move you slightly
-You can single jump a diamond with the right align
-If you collide with a spike and a wall at the same time you die. You can stand where a spike and block collide, but only with 0 vspeed. This applies horizontally and vertically and makes wallhugs pretty much useless lol
-You can save off a block, if you hold into block where the save is. I think it's probably the same issue as the collision
-Although you can save off a block, you cant save on the last pixels of it!
-v-align is saved, and required for some saves. Examples are save 5, where you need an align that is way harder to grab than usual because of the collision bugs, and the right v-align to just walk off. On save 18, you can only full jump through a corner if you have the right v- align!
-You can 1f over a minispike with no bhop (helpful in save 5 for the align grab)
-You can 5f over an upside down spike with no bhop (helpful for save 7)
-I think bhops don't exist. Every problem they usually solve just works with getting the right v-align
After writing that all out, it makes me think of how this game is kind of like a puzzle, but you get to get your mind into the inner workings of the engine and combine that with your standard engine knowledge to figure everything out. And on top of finding unusual behavior interesting, I find them funny as fuck.

a short but enjoyable game. unfortunately I can't give it a higher rating on account of it feeling unfinished and otherwise being very short. there's some fun 32px trigger needle with some clever fakeouts/traps that you likely won't expect. bosses are quite simple, you'll likely recognize them if you've played K2; they're the guys in the 2nd boss that sit at the sides and throw bouncing rocks. kinda weird seeing them not using these rocks at all and just using cherries like most other fangame bosses
recommended, you'll likely beat this in under 30 minutes
