7 stages with a variety of content as described by Gaspaco, so I won't go in depth.
Long avoidance but slow, peaceful and nice to look at.
Needle had quite a few choky endings, other than that mostly standard jumps.
Trigger / Trap stage felt a bit better although there's one trigger that may be accidentally triggered earlier than expected.
Boss stage was good I guess, most of the attacks can really be RNG non friendly though especially when it comes to final phase with the shaky stuff. Fortunately there's a way to trivialize all RNG on the first part: Dark blue won't stop if the following fruit is kept alive
Moving circle stage had a really nice pace to it
Spotlight / gimmick stage was nice, exploring the screens can help figuring out the blind spots beforehand.
Button stage would be the hardest of all by far especially the ending, which also has some choky parts and may be the longest save in the game.
Final stage is a medley rehash of 2 needle stage combined together on one screen with 3 different combinations available. The order can be chosen but all of them have to be done.
It feels easier than the button stage overall. Maybe ther could have been some better screen choices but I feel that the gimmick combination felt good.

Better than the first one for sure.
Most attacks are really boring and repetitive (the 1st attack is used 3 or 4 times, and you don't even have to move to clear them, just have to stay still and jump after the apple explosion.
Some attacks just seems that was made to make you lose time, and nothing else.

A 9 stage adventure game with a boss at the end of 8 of those stages and an avoidance to finish it off.
It starts off nicely but sadly, the further in you get, the more unfun in becomes.
To quickly talk about the stages:
Red - Chill needle with some triggers, was nice.
Orange - Fun needle with moving obstacles and some triggers sprinkled in between.
Yellow - Platforming with different gravity; last room is kinda stupid but else was fun.
Green - A bit puzzly platforming, the last room has a difficult puzzle and is long and not easy, which made it kinda tedious.
Cyan - First half is absolutely horrible. It uses a gimmick where the clouds change your speed after some time, first normal speed, then slow, then fast. Well... almost every single save starts with you needing the fast speed and makes you wait roughly 20 seconds before you can even start the save. The second half of the stage is just needle which is alright, but the first half is really really annoying.
Blue - Water1 needle, most of it is pretty boring, a few saves are okay, but overall very forgettable.
Purple - This area is really cool, it has an item you can collect roughly 1/3 in every of the rooms, which gives you a certain ability to clear whatever room you are in. There is one or two rooms that feel too hard for their own good, but generally really good area.
Rainbow - Really long saves, lots of annoying fulljumps, flying spike traps everywhere. Just seems like the maker wanted to artificially make you spend as long as possible on this. It's also relatively difficult so it makes it even less fun.
Black - Worst area in the game. It only has 5 or 6 saves but manages to take double as long as any of the others due to incredibly poor design. There is again one theme per save, but unlike the purple area, the design here is awful. Featuring a minesweeper water1 save in which u have to solve the puzzle, spanning 1.5 screens and being able to give you rng on the transition between screens that you cannot reliably solve; all that in gray water that makes it hard to see, a 3 screen invisible block maze in which you can die from time to time, moving apples with vision that make you wait minutes doing the save etc. This stage honestly is just pain and again feels like it was tried to make it just hard by making long and learny saves.
It really feels like the maker just felt the need to make the game hard for some reason and the game design really suffers from it, especially later and it feels like a complete waste.
Lastly a short mention for the bosses: The shooting bosses are.....bad. That's really it.
All of them take 5-6 minutes because they have way too much hp and i-frames. They also mostly only have 3 attacks that last forever generally so they get boring really fast as well.
The avoidance at the end of the game is alright. It's nothing special, has some instagib patterns and some rng but it was fun to play, making the game end ona positive note. However, the end game platforming was really tedious and unfun and made me lose a lot of motivation and enjoyment. If the maker makes another game some day, I'd strongly recommend they overthink their boss design entirely and focus less on just making the platforming hard, but actually enjoyable design.

Needle game with a heavy focus on moving obstacles and cycles. Some of it feels like platforming in noesis, some of it does not. Most of the saves also are really cool and interesting and fun to do with the exception of maybe 2-3 saves. The majority of the game is a great experience though and is not dragged down by those and if you can deal with some harder platforming I'd strongly recommend this.
