The first two Neon games are short but sweet romps through pretty chill needle, on the contrary Neon 3 has much more structure and ends up creating an experience with far more identity and memorability than what comes before it. The needle just feels so much more substantial and the rooms feel like they have structure as opposed to just being a line of jumps in a row. This is combined with some strong gimmicks, especially in the floor 31 section there's some strong ones, although I wish the gravity flipper stuff was used a little better, the level design in that stage just felt a bit weaker especially compared to what surrounds it. If I want to nitpick I could also say the final stage is a bit anticlimactic for an ending. The game is still really good and fun though, I enjoyed all of it and would definitely say it's one of the best needle games I've played, super sick game.

More of the first game basically but mildly more interesting, it still keeps things simple and easy but it's a good time overall, if a bit of a short one. I think the usage of gimmicks kept things a bit fresh which was nice, although I wish there were more triggers like the first game had in some spots.

pretty tough game with some interesting ideas and some not-so-interesting ideas thrown in. the gimmicks themselves are pretty fun and make some sense, however the bosses absolutely do not.
this game has a looooot of gimmicks so be prepared for some getting used to. and they have a very sharp learning curve. Mizutori will literally instantly throw hard jumps at you two seconds after you learn the presented gimmick. unfortunately all the platforming segments are quite short, which is a bummer since i enjoyed them the most in this game.
the bosses however, are a total mess. the hardest boss in the game (not counting extra since i didn't play extra or get all the secrets) is the purple cherry, closely followed by the white cherry with the UFOs. they all exhibit this interesting, however somewhat poorly thought out idea of working like a metronome - perpetually getting faster and faster and faster until they become unbearable for the last few seconds. this effect is varied, in some bosses it's extremely noticeable, while in others its negligible and/or hard to tell what even changed (i.e. the ice cherry). the bosses are also unimaginably unoriginal and all have the basic cherry sprite and the same background. the only variation here is the color.
overall interesting game, however the execution is pretty bad and the bosses often display a good amount of trial and error until you figure out what works and what doesn't. then again, i can also credit this game as there's nothing like it that i've played or even seen on all of delfruit.
play it for a unique experience, if you will

a fairly concise and simple adventure game with a story i couldn’t quite follow. there’s a trigger needle section that was quite fun, and an odd final boss. i did a double invert somewhere in this game and that’s about all i remember
