3 short stages of gimmick needleventure, focusing on a system of collectibles (introduced 1 per stage) that allows the player to either unlock parts of the screen that were previously unavailable or provide them movement options when activated by pressing the shoot key.
The platforming is pleasant, although with mild jank since eyeballing the distance the movement ones launch you wasn't easy. The game ends with a bit of a letdown, with the anticipated climactic fight being reduced to a cutscene, especially given the hint through the dragon's name that there'd be a miku fight. I fully sympathize and understand the time constraint the game was made under though, so I cannot fault it, but I just hope that in the future the game would be updated to have a more satisfying ending.
The atmosphere is very basic but it works well, feeling like a slightly modern touchup of an old adventure game. The one thing I mildly dislike, however, is the overabundance of end of screen warps rather than room transitions. Of course, one could justify the usage of teleportation warps through magic considering the theme, however it does not quite feel that way.
Overall a chill bite-sized adventure game. Would recommend.

And thank you for making Summer!!
It's mostly a short easy needle game, but this year's edition adds a bunch of visual flair, a fancy menu screen, some adorable visuals, and a collection of bosses at the end that Summer has put together from past games. I think this is a great step up and helps represent growth within the community and Aiwana itself. It's very relaxing and short, but I think it's worth playing.
