There's a good amount of charm to this game, although the early bits are rather unremarkable gameplay wise. The trap section is quite lengthy but it's definitely the most interesting part of the game. The bosses are unremarkable but the final one is alright. The sequel is a major glow up but this game is cool too, if a little basic.

One of my least favorite Emeralds that I played in FSR. I like the gimmick concepts but I just did not like it.
And I didn't appreciate the Jumpscare at the end of the Trap heavy Stage.

About as simple as a fangame could get, it's pretty basic platforming where the craziest jump you'll see is over 4 spikes. It sorta just exists and as sad as it is to say, it's only real relevance is how many medleys use it. At least it's short.

Very solid game overall. I had fun with many of this game's platforming screens, traps, gimmicks, and bosses. There's a pleasant variety of everything from stage to stage, and the game never felt like it grew stale or overly frustrating.
That being said, it's always easier to point out the cons than the pros. The block gimmick from Bad Apple Stage moves incredibly slowly and makes certain saves take a very long time, which was especially true in one of the screens of the final stage. A couple questions in the quiz stage also did not make sense to me (thankfully I was able to use a walkthrough). From a larger perspective, though, this game was enjoyable the whole way through.
SPOILERS BELOW FOR EXTRA:
The extra bosses were way harder than the base game and easily bring the difficulty range of Forehead 2 into the mid to high-80's. If you are not ready for a grind, I highly recommend against playing extra.
Pigment: This is one of the few bosses I would say was genuinely poorly made. The boss teleports randomly around the arena, providing no consistent way to attack it other than waiting and hoping to get lucky. The sudden screen transitions between each quadrant of the arena are also a death sentence if you try to change screens when cherries are coming at you from off-screen.
Singular: The hardest fight in the game in my opinion. I really enjoyed the variety of attacks in this fight and thought the gradual ramp-up in the final attack's cherry density was cool. Though at this level of difficulty, the fight was inherently frustrating as well.
Squares: This avoidance is about 14 minutes long. Why.
Indigenous: Like Singular, this fight was also both very fun and very hard. I do think the difficulty of the last two attacks could have been better balanced with the rest of the boss.
Replication: Fairly interesting gimmick, though once you learn the fight, it becomes a very chill pattern-based avoidance compared to the craziness of the previous fights. A nice break.
Slow Motion: Very awesome and high-energy avoidance. My only complaints for this fight are that, in general, combining RNG elements with pattern gives the cherries opportunities to wall you sometimes.
Also, holy moly, a lot of the achievements are well hidden and come in just as much variety as the game itself. Some of them were pretty insane (two ceiling double diamonds in a row, beating the Past Garden avoidance without jumping), but again, I had fun grabbing them.
