The visuals in this game are truly a sight to behold, they are definitely questionable but I honestly can get behind how absurd they are. I'm a lot less fond of the gameplay, very simple and while there's the occasional cool gimmick, especially the one at the end of the demo with flipping gravity, it just feels like they don't get to realize any potential. The one boss present is also super basic and mildly annoying. Would be cool if it ever got finished, but that's a 0% chance at this point and what's here is woefully underwhelming.

Very simple needle, there's some screens which use space in a cool way but the actual jumps are kinda just there, I try to review every game I beat but it's just so hard to say anything about this one, the only thing I remember really was a room with a double invert and a save spam section to skip it :P

Totally fine game, it's a bit weird which is kind of how a lot of wonderful's older games feel but it works out in the end. The general idea is that the blocks are normal ground, ice, or vines depending on color, but that very rarely comes up in gameplay. The final stage abandons this for more conventional gravity flip needle. It's not anything particularly noteworthy but for what it is I had a good time.

I guess I reached the clear screen.
First half exists, one stage is also a guessing game in some way.
Then a chase that is not very fun to do. I like the idea behind it but the screen transitions are a bit much.
Boss 1 maybe has an HP bar, I dont know how that one works, but phase transitions can be brutal, and it's not a short boss either.
Second half actually has some more challenge and does require some precision.
Compared to boss 1, final would be more appealing to stage 1 if I had to choose their order.

I really vibe with this game, while maybe a bit lacking in production value it's got a lot of neat ideas lending to some fun platforming. I really like the traps in this game, they never really feel overdone and I never had the urge to just look up where they were because they got annoying, they are well spaced out and sometimes entertaining. Every stage brings something cool to the table generally, making for some very memorable sections. There's two bosses after the first four stages, the suwako boss is the weakest part of the game for me, very tedious and the only hard bits are at the very end, but the avoidance is pretty nice, it's got issues but I had a lot more fun than I was expecting. The game concludes with a really silly final stage and all in all, I don't have too much negative to say about the experience. It's easy to compare to butterfly because it's very much in the same vein as this game, but I would say this one is worth a shot too.
