CN3 tower style jtool needle.
Rating based on extra, which is just a super long save mixed with trivial jumps and precise ones. Don't do it.

Absolutely beautiful avoidance and great for a lot of skill ranges. Looks pretty, feels good, wonderful gameplay, and easily sight readable. I recommend to anyone trying to get better at avoidances.

Needle game with a bunch of required full cancels and weird stutter drops. Apparently a Hades like, so I'm assuming there's multiple screens. No rating because haven't cleared, glhf to whoever does.
[Verse 1: Dred Foxx]
Here I come, rougher than the rest of them
The best of them, tougher than leather
You can call me Knuckles, unlike Sonic I don't chuckle
I'd rather flex my muscles
I'm hard as nails, it ain't hard to tell
I break 'em down whether they solid or frail
Unlike the rest I'm independent from my first breath, first test
Feel the right then the worst's left
[Verse 2: Marlon Saunders]
Born on an island in the heavens
The blood of my ancestors flows inside me
My duty is to save the flower from evil deterioration
[Refrain: Dred Foxx]
I will be the one to set your heart free true
Cleanse yourself of them evil spirits that's in you
[Verse 3: Marlon Saunders]
Streaking lights, loud sounds, and instinct
Are the elements that keep me going
I am fighting my own mission
Nothing's gonna stand in my way
[Refrain: Dred Foxx]
I will be the one to set your heart free true
Cleanse yourself of them evil spirits that's in you
[Chorus 1: Marlon Saunders]
Won't be frightened, I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others
Get this power to wipe out the havoc and anarchy
This is my planet, gonna fight for my destiny

I have no such things as weak spots
Don't approve of him, but got to trust him
This alliance has a purpose
This partnership is only temporary
[Refrain - Variation: Dred Foxx]
I will be the one to set your heart free true
Cleanse yourself of evil spirits that got in you
[Chorus 2: Marlon Saunders]
Won't be frightened, I'll stand up to all the pain and turmoil
Just believe in myself, won't rely on others
Freedom will be waiting when serenity is restored
This is my planet, I shall not surrender

The new porcupine on the block with the puffed chest
Out the wilderness with the ruggedness
Knock, knock, it's Knuckles, the blow thrower
Independent flower, magical Emerald holder
Give you the coldest shoulder
My spike goes through boulders
That's why I stay a loner
I was born by myself
I don't need a posse, I get it on by myself
Adversaries get shelved

It took me 6000 deaths and 7 hours to complete 102 floors and a tower climb of pure needle with standard gimmicks.
There are some very annoying design decisions, where save difficulty is all over the place—even on later floors. I shouldn't be dying 300 times on one save, only to first-try the next. The difficulty curve starts to flatten in the 70s, beyond sporadic aberrations.
My difficulty rating is based on the hardest segments; most of the saves hover between 55–65, with the early saves being around 40–50. Completing the game requires a significant investment for all but the most experienced players, who could reasonably complete it in one session.
I didn't really feel happy after beating the game. If anything, I felt relief that I could finally not come back to it with the feeling that I had to finish it, due to prior investment. I was also frustrated with my subverted expectations of receiving a proper 100th floor, and this soured my mood while I trawled through the remainder of the game without knowing how much was left to complete.
With that said, I can't in good conscience rate it any lower than a 7.0. It's still one hell of a game and the vast majority of saves are, on their own, enjoyable to play, even if they sometimes don't make much sense from a meta-perspective.
