An ordinary needle game. The quality is good but not outstanding. Nothing challenging and the spikes are not very interesting, indeed.

It feels like three games stitched together: the first 50 or so floors are beginner needle, then up to floor 90 you have some water needle, diagonals galore, and a very annoying infinite jump section (floor 85 in particular is very unfun). Then there's the last 10 floors, which are the best by far. I wish the rest of the game was like that. There's also bosses, which are unremarkable except for the last boss, which is more of an endurance test than a boss.
Overall I'd recommend qoqoqo origin for a beginner, and better balanced 100 floor GED for experienced players.

Brilliant 30 screens birthday gift game, showing initiative pathings here and there.
Though it might be abit hard for average players, it is still acceptable considering the quality of the game.

Classic depression needle but instead of picking an emotional song close to the heart it just uses one of those stereotypical cat commercial songs. I guess if the game is this short you stopped being sad pretty quickly so congrats?

Just an awful screen of needle on the harder side with a sudoku background, not really anything that is funny or worth downloading for. There's a screenshot uploaded you can look at to basically experience the full level of humor inside.

A stunning mix of great production value, really good music, beautiful visuals, and terrible design choices. From watching the game it looked extremely cool, like it would be one of my favorite fangames, but then I actually took some time and played it. And yeah, in many ways it was extremely fun, but the majority of it was spent wondering why some decisions were made by Influcca to, in my opinion, lessen the player's experience for no real reason.
One of the core aspects of the game that struck me is that there is a currency system with additional weapons to unlock and upgrade, this is a really awesome system... except it is entirely useless for normal mode. When one of the most interesting points of the game is only available in a post-game playthrough, then in my opinion you are basically trashing the concept and ruining what the normal mode could have been. This should have been fully implemented into the normal mode, and while sure you technically can use the store from the beginning, the coin grind for normal difficulty stages would be so insanely obnoxious that there is no reason anyone would reasonably want to spend time doing that.
Another issue I had came from the absolute visual challenge of the next to last boss. At some point in the design process, a thought occurred which must have been the following: "What if the challenge here is that the player cannot see!". At this point, you've already started the process of making a terrible boss, and it was easily my least favorite in the game. It's a shame because I liked the other 4 bosses before it, they were incredibly fun and neat to learn, but this just felt like a very cheap level of difficulty that is the equivalent of making a purposely broken camera in a souls-like game.
I stopped on the final boss before writing this, though it's not too annoying actually, I do have fun with it, but the mega laser attack seems incredibly obnoxious and even after a hour I've managed to do it only once with no clue how it even works. All the other attacks seem fair though, so I don't think the boss is actually bad. However the health bar on it reminds me of another major issue, the fact that your gun has fake autofire. With the amount of HP bosses have, it should be genuine autofire, especially since the last boss has significantly larger health.
Overall, I do think this is worth playing, but you should be aware that going beyond Normal Mode is absolutely expected by the developer and the game has been designed around such.

Nine stage needle game with a mix of normal needle and precision needle stages. The precision stages were fantastic, and I especially loved the pink, light grey and dark grey stages.
