Based on 100 % clear. Mostly great game when it comes to platforming - pretty interesting design of gimmicks, i really liked stage 1, which is trigger heaven, and stage 3, which is honestly one of the best switch platforming i've ever played. Stage 2 was also honestly not that bad, but kinda below those two. Also liked "secrets" a lot, especially buffed minigames in stage 2. Extra is very questionable tho, needle screen was okay, but avoidance is dumb, not worth going for
Bosses were also kinda okay, even tho they didn't feel like highlights and they were harder than stages by quite a lot. Avoidance of stage 1 was whatever ig, even tho it was fine and intense at the end. Boss of stage 2 has pretty insane mid-phase with a lot of bounces, that can destroy you blocks, and since you has small space by default, it become quite hellish and i actually not enjoyed this. Boss of stage 3 tho was decent Destination-like, but what is dragging both bosses down is fact that they are heavy on mashing
Overall, it was decent. If you search for light on traps adventure with pleasant visual style, this might be your choice
P.S: Death sounds sucks

One of the best old gimmick platforming i've ever seen, up there with Butterfly. It's honestly just fun all the way through, aside of maybe final stage and final boss, that were quite questionable sometimes. Other than that, had a blast and can easily recommend

While nothing truly bad happens, i didn't had too much fun with this one. A lot of dumb overused traps and awkward design through. Physics stage (stage 3) and vertical stage (stage 2) were kinda good at few places, and stage 4 tries, but it was still far from what i call a tasty. Boss was alright tho, and once you are in EX stage, things get better - this wasn't that bad of a stage aside of platform ride ig. EX avoidance was probably best thing in the game with some cute attacks and of course infamous pattern
In general, this is one of the old adventures that i probably didn't recommend. A lot of needle feels dated, lack of bosses is depressing and many things will just annoy you probably

Rating based on playing through the GMS version.
Beefy needle game mostly focused on vines, water, and platforms, with gravity arrows making an appearance later in the game. As is standard for Stella's games, expect some awkward sequences and unapologetic usage of corners. It never really gets that difficult, but it never gets that easy, either, with only a few gimme saves; it's well balanced in this respect, even if the game fluctuates in difficulty throughout its length. There's some very nice pathing, without ever feeling overwhelming.
Would recommend to experienced needle players who don't mind the more uncomfortable platforming sequences.

This is one of the worst games available on this platform and I hope that means a lot coming from me

Pretty fun collab game, I think the average stage is quite solid and there's good balance between the stages, some are shorter and some are longer but I think most people tended to make their stages on the harder side so in general it feels quite balanced. Not every stage is a total winner but a lot of people made interesting and cool stuff I had a lot of fun with. The stuff that stands out the most is probably Popop, Aroxon, and PlayerDash, but I don't think there were any stages I downright disliked. Fun game overall :)
