Difficulty/Rating based on regular clear, no extras.
A 100 floor game based on the oldschool floor games minus the BS: themed stages capped by a boss on every 10th floor. Expect long segments and to be challenged on your endurance/consistency rather than being able to cancel jumps or have lightning-fast reflexes: most of the floors are one-screen saves, and the bosses/avoidances are of the slow and dense barrage variety.
The difficulty starts off easy and steadily trends upward, with a few floors past the 70s being notable difficulty spikes. The bosses are comparatively easier and a nice break from the long platforming saves. The visuals are pretty simple, mostly one tileset plus default spikes on a gradient background.
Overall I enjoyed the game, despite 100-floor games not being my favorite archetype. 128-Up does a good job not going overboard with the gimmicks, even the ones that are harder to use well, like conveyors or ice physics. Most of the saves, while long, were well balanced, so I didn't lose motivation to grind, even the ones that took me hours (looking at you floors 93 and 97). There's a couple saves with an awkward needle jump which didn't spark joy, and I wish the visuals were a bit more varied (some tiles felt too baroque and the gradient backgrounds got stale), but that didn't mar my enjoyment much, and I feel the satisfaction of having struggled with a fair number of challenging but fair long saves, and prevailed.
Would recommend to intermediate players with a fair bit of patience, or maybe retired veterans looking to de-rust.

First stage felt kind of messed up, but it gets better after that.

It feels like one big weird mix between a thank you game and sudoku. And, of freaking course, it NEEDS to have a golden. Well, at least this one obviously did better than the garet one.

Simply incredible. This game proves that you can take 2 gimmick ideas, combine them, and end up creating an even better one. If you thought that was all, may I also mention that each stage is really short, but long enough for you to get the hang of each gimmick, which makes this the most fresh design I ever experienced. Congrats on a favorite.

It did better than the geezer one, but at the end of the day, it's 2 chairs problem and I choose to sit on the floor.
