This review is based on a clear of Very Hard Mode
Popularity is a pretty well known fangame, and one of it's makers, eden, is pretty infamous in the community for the kinds of things he creates, popularity demonstrating his diabolical ideas. While there are easier difficulties in the form of medium and hard, the former of which I did end up playing and enjoyed, they are definitely not what the game is known, likely due to the kamilia games making the Very Hard final boss pretty well known. On Very Hard popularity becomes one of the biggest tests of patience and skill, not just skill in needle or avoidance, but skill in incredibly niche gimmicks you only really see in much easier adventure fangames. This creates super unique gameplay on this mode, which is definitely gonna challenge basically anyone. The best stage was the Kirby stage for me, as the gimmick is super hilarious and leads to really entertaining situations, plus it's super satisfying to clear a screen. There's definitely some weak points, like the weezing boss, and the dragon quest 2 stage, but also some high points throughout, with lots of memorable sections and bosses. The true final boss, Gravityman, is a fight that I used to hate whenever I played him in the Kamilia games, but I actually was quite fond of him, likely due to me having finally adapted to the boss. It's very tough however, but a very satisfying clear, much like the rest of the game. It's extremely far from perfect, but I really think this game is good, and worth playing at some point in your fangame lifespan.

They didn't implement physics, which is fair since it's scratch and it's gonna be hard to code, but still kinda not great. They chose the sliding sprite for the kid too, which... why? Attacks are pretty generic and easy until you get to the spinning bullet part where you just need to pray you don't die. Also, ignore what the other review said about not being able to die as that has since been implemented.

I tested this.
Quite fun and enjoyable FTFA-like, difficulty is around 75 for almost the entire game, then last save is around 85 difficulty, took me thrice the entire game took me.
Just careful on that diffspike on the last save, otherwise, quite fun!

Your reward for clearing forgettable needle is a pair of hentai titties. It's not a great trade-off.
