This was a fairly decent attempt to replicate the Neon series. The visuals and platforming style for the first 2/3 of the game do a nice job of capturing the same vibe. The music with the screeching weeb music was out of place and sort of off putting in one of the later stages to the point where I debated muting the game.
The dotkid section of the game was OK enough, although a bit of a different style than Neon, not sure I liked it as much but it wasn't a major drag for me. The infinite jump stage near the end was a complete bust for me and the game would have been better off without it. It's basically a bunch of boring jumps as filler with some 16px shoved in there repeatedly. I just lost interest in one of the last rooms and tapped out after counting 4 16px gaps in one save. Still, it was a mostly decent game for me and hope the maker learns from some of the misteps here if he tries this sort of project again.

Probably the most miserable few hours i've spent.
This avoidance isn't very difficult, but none the less it's terribly tedious to do. No attack is fun to learn or satisfying to execute. It's the avoidance equivalent of doing a bunch of gate jumps in a row. None of the RNG is that hard (except for the absolutely awful 2nd chorus mini apple part, which can have apples randomly turn around and give you a running lariat. They're like Nues dorbs.) not are the patterns that precise (outside of one cherry avoidance (outside of the mini apple heart during the first chorus) but they don't feel great to do. It's all just doing extremely tired and annoying gimmicky attacks like doing a ledge jump in time or running down a hallway and doing a gate without stopping.
The only thing that really saves it is that Jitter Doll is a pretty great song... which is almost entirely ruined by the fact that it doesn't use any good cover or version of it, or give you the option to switch it. Not to mention the sheer tonal disconnect from the avoidance vs the song. I know that's something only weirdos like I care about, but seriously, they aesthetic of the avoidance and the song don't match at all.
I know this was the creators first attempt at a boss, and in fairness there was a clear attempt at timing the song to the beat which I appreciate, and its not completely bereft of ideas, but this was a really painful few hours to get through. I don't recommend at all.

Doesn't really feel like a full game, but what's there is decent. Nice visuals and some interesting traps.

Overall a pretty good trap game with creative traps and a boss at the end. The third screen felt way too hard compared to the rest of the pre-boss screens and the last attack of the boss can instagib you. Right after that there's a short Flappy Bird segment and the game ends.
