Lucky Final is pretty infamous at this point, largely due to the fact it has far more clears than it realistically deserves considering the premise. It's a game about getting lucky, featuring 4 lovely avoidance attacks that are extremely unreasonable to do with any level of consistency. Luck-based avoidances can often be pretty funny to me, after all I love Invincible Alien, and I have a love-hate relationship with Railgun's avoidance. Lucky Final is a bit weak compared to some other lottery avoidances though, as the attacks really just aren't that interesting and rarely lead to cool scenarios, which for a game like this is most of the appeal at least for me. It leads to a game which gets dull pretty quickly, which is unfortunate. There is some fun to be had here though but I think 99% of players will only need to play the game for 5 minutes to get basically everything they could ever want out of it. It's somewhat neat that it exists at least.

Fun ftfa-like save. Would have liked to see a longer game, as the jumps were pretty creative for 32-pixel needle.

I'm not surprised that this is my least favorite Gold game in FSR Side A. I think it's the worst one overall enjoyment wise. It's just way too heavy on the traps to the point of trying my patience.
Putting the traps aside the way the first 3 stages are formatted I felt hurt the game more. There were of course terrible stages to play through but I did find a few that were actually enjoyable or a good gimmick concept. Unfortunately with 9 levels per stage, they have to be short and I felt that some of them never got the chance to be fully fleshed out. The game felt more like a collection of ideas rather than having proper stages outside of the boss stages.
Phase 2 of the Final Boss almost made the journey worth it but still not enough to compensate for how I didn't enjoy the majority of my time unfortunately. I still absolutely would not recommend this game.

Very nice needle collab, I generally enjoyed the first five stages, and they each had things that were pretty cool about them, mostly pathing and some nice feeling jumps. The real highlights of the game for me however were the final two stages, by Stark and Tuhkakuppi. Both of these have a cool needle style with some really creative jumps, Stark's consists of JTool gimmicks used in some inventive ways, the whole thing feels great. Tuhka's stage is all about vine stuff, with each screen focused on a different niche way to use vines. Not everything here feels great but the creativity was nice and I still enjoyed all of it. I think this game would be worth playing just for those two stages, but the whole thing was enjoyable.
