The good parts: great pathing, nice visuals, most saves are fun and balanced.
The not so good parts: The music grated on me after a while, and some jumps are a significant difficulty spike, most notably a FTFA-like jump in the middle of a save and several vine jumps into a tbone (one of them in a save with an underwater dplane on top of that!)
It is a well-known tenet that restrictions breed creativity, but if you restrict yourself too much then that doesn't work too well, and sadly with 32px grid needle I feel one can only do so much without either going into FTFA territory (which is not bad per se, but not my cup of tea) or spamming named jumps (challenge: count all the tbones in screenshot 1/3)
It's still a decent needle game, and I'm glad I cleared it despite being outside my comfort zone. Looking forward to seeing what AlexBrogan can do in a less restrictive context.

longer mostly 32px consistency saves with some choke jumps if I remember correctly. the tileset is quite ugly and unpleasant to look at. other than that, it's of a decent length and doesn't drone on for too long. clearable within one sitting - it's one of those games you just kinda run through and forget

Avoidance with Guy Rock. Not my personal kind of game, but I'm sure some will enjoy it.
