Madness, dreams and demantia are hard themes to deal with and I truly think this game does everything wrong.

A pretty decent game with a fantastic boss.
This is a game that goes through all the colors of the rainbow, 6 different stages with 10 screens each. You get to pick either doing a boss, avoidance, or you can do both (which you should!) to progress forward. I've always really liked this format and kind of wish more games had it! I think Meltdown is the only game I've played with it besides this.
The needle in this game is... mostly okay. The first 3 stages are your ordinary needle, with the yellow stage being kind of odd. There seems to always be That One Jump in the middle or close to the end of a save thats confusingly harder than all the other ones. The needle feels a lot more creative when the last 3 stages start and some gimmicks like vines and water start showing up. Not sure if that is just closer to what Nogard likes to do or what, but it was a pretty good improvement. Though there's a few underwater diagonals that I wasn't a big fan of.
The avoidances are pretty chill, nothing overly learny or brutal RNG. Quite fair in that regard, actually. Not bad music choices as well. I wasn't too hot on the autoscrolling one, and the last section of purples felt it lasted a bit too long. The green infinite jump avoidance was a lot of fun though, and didn't feel especially ganky. I'd say even if you aren't too good or hot on avoidances you'll probably make it through them relatively fine.
But the real reason I rate this game as highly as I do is because if you are to clear all the needle and all the avoidances, you are rewarded with the true final boss of the game. It's nogard, so you can guess what it is. It's very lengthy, about 4 minutes, and mostly based on retaliation attacks. There's a lot of variety between the colors of each attack, none of them feel close to eachother, both in how you read them and how you execute them. You can REALLY feel your improvement the more you play it, as you start getting more and more colors deeper on average. It's a really satisfying boss to play, and since half of any colors attack only triggers when you shoot the boss, there is a lot of player agency. One of the best HP bosses I have played.
My only criticisms for it is that Red, especially when the boss moves to the floor, feels like it can be kind of unfair at times. It just gets too dense on one platform. And yellow takes SO damn long, it's a fun attack to learn but there isn't enough variance with it. It just feels obligatory every time it shows up by the end of the grind.
Anyways, this was a good time. Even if you don't do the avoidances or want to do the EX-Boss it's a pretty decent game all around, though I think doing just avoidances or just needle will leave some people unsatisfied if that is all you're looking for. Good stuff for me though.

Probably one of the best beginner games. Most of stages are creative and fun, mixing all of what can be a fangame.
The metal slug stage (which was really pointless) and the spamming trap in the avoidance stage are the reasons of why I give it only 8 but overall, I highly recommend it.

A game made in Scratch which is really well made for a kinda limited engine. The physics are pretty faithful to the original game, with the only exception being that you jump a bit higher than you normally would. The framerate is a bit choppy, but I had fun with it.

You have a hub with 25 warps in it, each bringing you to a set of jumps. The jumps may vary from having to jump over a few spikes to a double diamond or a downwards plane followed by a upwards plane. Let's just say the difficulty is all over the place. If you collect all the red keys nothing happens, not even a clear message. Assume that this is the end. Also, there are no traps.
