For: I wanna be the Just Trap
For: I wanna be the Just Trap
[Uncleared]
It's so weird how none of the reviews actually say anything about the game. This thing always gives me a nostalgic feeling. It was one of the first fangames I've ever played (Not one of the very first, but I believe it was among the first 10), and man, did this leave an impression.
You can probably tell what this is about from the screenshots, but I'll say it anyway. This is a Lovetrap fangame made by that one fangame maker we all know, and as such, you can already imagine where the difficulty level is at. It consists of a 7-boss boss rush, where you need to beat the first six bosses in order to unlock the last. Every boss is a Big Kid themed on a popular fangame boss: Solgryn, Kamilia, Geezer, Four Devils...Big Kid...Yeah. A Big Kid boss whose theme is Big Kid. Creative, huh? And there's that other Big Kid themed on a boss I've never seen in my life (Edit: Found it, it's themed on I don't wanna be the Gay). All of them are incredibly hard (Some harder than others), with ridiculously high amounts of HP and the prime definition of luck-based attacks, but not impossible (I think?) and there are a few videos on Youtube of (arguably) humans beating, or getting close to beating, one or two of them. So I guess it's no surprise that some people think that this game is humanly possible (As you can see in other reviews. Or maybe they just don't care. Why make a review if you don't care, though?).
The last boss is the problem. I mean, the problem beyond the near-impossible bosses. It's a Big Kid themed on Happil, and it's a real hope crusher. It's even longer than the other bosses, and it borrows attacks from each one of them (One Big Kid per phase), throwing everything at once at you. It's a clownfiesta of projectiles that can't be compared to the other bosses, lasting for about 8 or 9 minutes, if I recall correctly. There was a TAS video of it on Youtube a long while ago, but it was deleted, so I can't tell for sure. In other words, even if anyone were to make it to the final boss through sheer willpower, patience and lots of free time, that's where you stop. Where your biggest efforts really don't matter at all. It kind of reminds me of IWBTPro, but because I don't see anyone ever making it to the last boss and, therefore, feeling that frustration, it doesn't irk me as much. Besides, I don't want to give a full 0 to a fangame that has an interesting concept such as this, even if it's ruined by the atrocious gameplay. So, I'm giving it the second lowest possible rating instead, a way of saying that the effort the maker put in this and the interesting concept weigh nearly nothing when the gameplay is this atrocious.

For: I wanna be the Slave2
For: I wanna be the Slave2
[Uncleared]
Buffed version of the first Slave game, it consists of a short platforming section followed by a Big Kid boss. The platforming is a bit more precise than in the first game and just as fun, but the true difficulty comes from the boss. The Big Kid boss is similar to the first game, but the bullets move more quickly and the water doesn't give you double jump. It's possible that it also shoots more projectiles, but I wouldn't know, I never got too far into the fight. What I do know is that, thanks to its faster pace, you can't clear this game with skill and patience alone, like you could in the first.
Because I haven't gotten that far (I also don't have any other source of info), I can't say for sure how bad, or how difficult this is, so I'm leaving both rating fields blank. But I can say for sure that it's really bad, and really difficult, and I definitely wouldn't recommend it.

For: I Wanna Be the Emperor
For: I Wanna Be the Emperor
Emperor is a classic adventure game that holds up pretty well despite the lacking production value, full of tricky and often trigger-based platforming and memorable bosses.
The game plops you in a hub as you go and explore each path, beating their respective platforming segments which is centred primarily on traps and triggers. There is the odd slight gimmick now and again but nothing too in-depth, and the strength comes from Klein's ability to make challenging but memorable manoeuvres, often making use of moving cherries to compliment the stages. A couple of segments felt a bit unpleasant such as the moving quad-diamond in the brown stage or some parts in the final callback stage (shoutouts to Magnificent), but for the most part it stays enjoyable for the difficulty it is.
Bosses are pretty diverse, ranging from good ol' Captain Jack to the legendary Nose Guy, there's a good selection of opponents. I was most surprised at the Miku avoidance midway'ish through the game which I found a lot of fun to learn and play around, despite my usual distaste for mid-adventure vocaloid avoidances. The final boss of course is also a classic, Emperor Miku. With 8 whopping phases and some questionable nekoron(?) physics to hinder you in the inevitable infinite jump phase, you'll be in for a ride and a formidable challenge.
Klein's games have a very distinctive style to them, particularly with the platforming. This combined with the fairly fun boss fights and interesting design make for a memorable and pretty challenging adventure game, and definitely a classic one at that.

For: I WANNA BE THE EXPLOSIVE
For: I WANNA BE THE EXPLOSIVE
EXPLOSIVE is a pretty varied adventure full of traps, tricks and references to some of the classics such as Fangame, the original I Wanna be the Guy and of course the beloved Hatsune Miku and Schwarlitz Longhener who each have their chance in the spotlight.
Stages are primarily trap-orientated and don't feature too much in the way of gimmicks. Some segments get pretty tricky, although I'd say the meat of the game's difficulty lies with the boss fights which I'll get to in a moment. There is a kinda cool puzzlish stage involving shooting cherry-arrow blocks to manipulate the path of a cherry, and one of the later trap stages in particular was a highlight with mindreads at every turn.
The bosses are very hit or miss for me. There are a few pretty simplistic ones in nature without demanding too much, whereas others last absurdly long with very long choke attacks or just sudden inclines in difficulty that makes fighting some of them kinda tedious. I wasn't really a fan of the Miku avoidance either, just not finding the attacks very enjoyable to learn. I'm sure it'll be up other people's alley though, but it wasn't my kind of avoidance. The Taisa on the other hand was pretty fun despite some gripes I had regarding the pacing and tediousness of the first phase, and it made for a very intense finish.
Having said that, upon beating the boss and jumping in the game clear warp, my game actually froze and then closed and lost my clear data, but I'm counting that regardless. Who needs to see the credits anyway?
Overall a pretty decent adventure game with some real highlights and some kinda not-so-great moments.

For: I wanna beat the 2 Stage Needle
For: I wanna beat the 2 Stage Needle
Two screens of needle on a black and white visual theme. The first screen is primarily generic jumps such as corners, diagonals and other classics with one kinda tricky drop-jump at the bottom right. The second screen is basically a single jump and is kinda fun to land, although the inability to save next to the jump start is annoying. The visual for saving is also very unclear, to the point where I don't even know if they're Z saves or shoot saves with bullet blockers.
There's an extra too with another single-jump kinda thing which I didn't bother with, but that's what you have waiting for you at the end if you're feeling daring enough.

For: I wanna be the TF
For: I wanna be the TF
(this game was updated not long ago, it may address some of the issues in the review)
TF is a one-room-jump (sorta) game that starts off fairly simple with light-hearted jumps and pleasant visuals and music. Nothing too crazy but if you roll it in roulette then it doesn't seem too bad initially.
Then out of nowhere you'll be met with some ass-difficulty jump which sets a very grim tone. Then it gets easy again before returning later with some awkward precise jump requiring a nasty sequence of stutters with frame perfect jumps and pauses, all whilst the save is positioned far away so you can't even save in the setup position. I ended up quitting here but looked ahead and the game goes on for a while longer, ping-ponging between relatively normal jumps and gross hand-killers, which is just kinda weird given the readme says it was an attempt to be an easy game.
The visuals and audio are pleasant though, but the difficulty balance and design is so nonsensical that I can't really recommend it. Maybe it'll be someone's cup of tea?
