This starts with several screens of platforming where you need to get to several triggers strewn throughout the screen, all on a single save. While the platforming is very simple, the trigger design results in very long saves. The second half of the platforming involves dodging rng apples while doing long but simple needle saves. This portion is actually pretty good, and also quite a bit trickier than the first section. Production values are strong for all the platforming.
The end is a simple avoidance. So simple in fact that a good 75% of it is a complete waste of time to a player of any skill level. The other 25% would be a nice intro to avoidance for new players.

The chasing at the final screen is insane.

This is a needle game with 2 areas. One is blue and the other is red. Red area certainly had the more interesting level design as blue are was generic and had the better tile-set. So it made the areas equal in terms of how much fun I had with them. The save balance compared to other PDPlayer games were much better than I thought and I genuinely liked it expect 2 saves which were both drops in the game. I recommend this game for a grind and only people who enjoy doing cancel and squished jumps.

Personally the difficulty level was right and just right.
It seems to be a needle game for intermediate level players.

One screen needle game (more or less) with short saves that require precision jumps, though not to the precision level of an L game. Playable, but also completely forgettable. There's an extra stage, it's pretty much more of the same except a little harder.

Short needle game with longish saves centered around vine use. Surprisingly, there is none of the platform or water use so commonly seen with vine game design these days. While I appreciate the "pure" approach taken the vine experience, the design suffers from repeated use of some of the more annoying things you can do with vines. Vine jumping up into awkward 32px gaps, forcing the player to fall from a long distance on to a vine, surrounding a vine with spikes (especially putting spikes right under the vine), etc. Vines interact with the Kid's movement in a really funky manner, and using tricks like these to increase the precision requirements just doesn't work well. It doesn't create a fun or rewarding experience. Still, it's a decent enough game outside of these occasional annoying vine interactions, especially during some of the more kinetic multi-vine sequence.
