Visually, it's very cute, I like it. Gameplay wise, I won't deny that I did find it a bit frustrating. It becomes less frustrating the more you play it though since the RNG becomes more intuitive to read, and the patterns easier to execute overtime, so just try your best to stick with it. That being said, one part that really infuriated me was the part immediately after the black background, where you have to fall down. The cherries here will fall down shortly before rising up. The problem is that it's random how far they will fall down, so I had 5 attempts in a row where they fell to nearly the bottom and my only way to survive would be by doing a frame perfect 1f or something. I think I just got unlucky though so experiences may vary.

This game has a lot of kinda weird stuff, some strange and at times very inconsistent jumps and nonexistent balance, but I think it's pretty fun. There's a lot of fun stuff here, in particular the second half of the game was more enjoyable for me as I felt it had more creative stuff that was really satisfying to pull off at times. The first half is still good but I think saves 1 feels a bit too inconsistent for my tastes at the end, just doesn't feel that great to pull off, and save 4 was mildly annoying, I didn't dislike it, it was just my personal least favorite, partially influenced by getting destroyed by it for no good reason. If you can look past a few questionable moments I think this game is worth a playthrough for sure.

If you like the usual Stella jtool needle then you already know what to expect: water grabs, vine jumps, "islands" layouts, pathing with vine and platform setups, using vines to slow your falling speed, colorful visuals and "CardCaptor Sakura"-style music. The difficulty curve slowly progresses from beginner to veteran, with a couple outlier difficulty spikes. There's this one rough save in the middle where it's almost better to skip it and go directly to the next save, because if you start from said save you have to jump out of a t-bone, which is really awkward, and redo part of the previous save anyway, but aside from that (and vine jumping from/into 16px gaps, which is a personal skill issue), the gameplay does flow smoothly, and even the harder saves in the last third, while long and challenging, felt very rewarding to slowly improve at and clear.
I think I was also fortunate to play this game at the right time, so it was hard enough to push me to improve but not so hard it became too frustrating. I'd say if you can clear needle around the difficulty of Vandal, you can enjoy Frolic and Frisk (and you should probably also touch grass! )
