As one would expect, if theres anything to count on Den for, it's eye pleasing visuals. It doesn't have much to do with the actual Gothic and Loneliness but that's fine.
But honestly, I found alot of the gameplay fell between annoying or boring and kind of lost interest a half an hour in, and felt I was just playing it just for the sake of finishing. The beginning is fine, if not a little subdued, and Den makes good use of all the arena changing and new space, but when the autoscroller segment starts happening it becomes a chore. The beginning of it functions as just a cycle where if you stop holding right you run the risk of clotheslining off one of the patterns. Do this too many times and with a little bit of awkward RNG at the end you might just get gimped by the left side orbs instead. It honestly feels like something closer to a segment in an adventure game over something in an avoidance.
There's some other nitpicks, such as the lightning fast transitions near the end being really jarring, and I personally found some of the visuals (the tunnel segment during the auto-scroller specifically) distracting, but the very ending is a cool and pretty involving segment.
So, honestly, in the end i'm not sure. It's definitely out of the sphere of normal avoidances and there's definitely some creativity, but the beginning feels tuned too soft to be really interesting and the middle is just a bunch of frustrating white noise. So it ends up as a mixed bag for me.

A classic old game and a surviving relic of the old fangame culture. Each stage, if you know the inside jokes pertaining to each of the Wannabes they're based on, has a mixture of hard platforming and playful humor (stages consist of a single room getting incremental changes). Once you're done with each stage, the boss that follows is much harder yet is based on the same Wannabes. The boss is really hard. If you're gonna try to beat it, you're in for the long haul. It might be reasonable to stop here, because by then you've witnessed pretty much everything the game sought out to do anyways; be silly fun.
Largest detractors from its value as a game are the music loops (Not quite restarting, but it doesn't loop unless you restart a room) and some of the needle design being pretty unforgivingly hard from the getgo. There are also several points where your character will straight-up die in a gravity flip without a clear indication of why it's happening. The boss can be perceived as a particularly weak point of the game, but that depends on how you perceive it.
Recommended for skilled needle players, on the condition that you understand you might not like all the platforming/screen effects and you might not get all the jokes. Not even I do.

Wasn't a huge fan of the yellow knives attack right before the first platforms appear and the attack after the 6 diagonal lines but everything else was really fun. Good avoidance.

Incredible avoidance game by Denferok, very short and fun in general with quite a bit of variety in its attacks. The visuals can sometimes make the game lag a little if you don't have a very good computer, but besides that it looks and plays amazing, the song was a great choice as well. Usually people disregard avoidance games given the nature of the genre but I highly recommmend this to anyone, it's without a doubt worth it.
