I didn't know about the English Translation until after I beat this game. But god damn, is this game truly fantastic to play through from start to almost end. I didn't like the Final Boss but the epilogue setting was beautiful that I forgot about my frustrations just prior.
Highly recommend this game, especially play the English Translation to appreciate the story of this already great game.

pretty sub-par game here, I suppose it's somewhat fun to mindlessly run through, since it really doesn't require much thought to play and beat. 100 floors of needle you've already played and bosses you've already beaten before at some point. notably, this game has 20 diamonds that you can collect to get the true ending. this, to my knowledge, grants you no extra content but just displays the amount of diamonds you've collected as 20 on the clear screen. mind you, these diamonds are a pain in the ass to get and most of the time you'll just end up skipping them anyway. in case you do skip them, say goodbye to that "true end" idea, since this game has some sort of anti-save-manipulation mechanism that prevents you from savehacking quite literally anywhere in the game. this is extremely annoying and pretty much pointless - savehacking isn't often used for skipping things that you find too hard. it's usually for going back for things you've missed or getting out of softlocks. this savehack protection is an awful idea and I firmly believe less games should do stupid things like this
an interesting thing about this game is that in the second half of the game, the platforming gets oddly more difficult, spamming lots of named jumps that teeter on the edge precision needle. there's inverts, double diamonds, a super F, planes, corners, etc. floor 84 is the best room in the game, it's reminiscent of I wanna be the Butterfly in a way, except you have to account for jump timings and cherry RNG, not just arbitrary timings. honestly it's a really fun screen and could maybe have been worth getting to - if not for the fact that the game's instantly gonna descend in quality the moment you exit 84

Rating based on Normal difficulty with checkpoints.
I'm not really an avoidance guy at all but the blurb for this game intrigued me and I definitely do not regret trying it out. The production value for this game is frankly insane and impressive for a first work. The attacks flow nicely and are mostly well-balanced (there are some insta-gibs but the checkpoints help mitigate that). I look forward to seeing what else this maker creates in the future.

Brilliant needle, 9.5. Minus 1 point because it wasn't hard enough to make me want to break my keyboard, and minus 1 point because it didn't have some deep profound meaning to it or whatever

pretty fun needle/boss game
RNGesus bless you if you don't have autofire at the final boss
it has some tough jumps but they are usually at the start of saves
(also for anybody stuck on the invisible maze you have to take the hidden top path after climbing up the right path
