This is a monster of a game in both size and scope. Ocean Princess is a pretty beefy adventure game that packs in a ton of content that is sure to take most players many hours to complete on their first play. What this game strives to do is deliver a lot of stages featuring a multitude of various gimmicks and bosses to give a wide variety of content to the player.
A lot of the good in this game comes from the gimmicks. Ocean Princess delivers a lot of gimmicks and presents them in fairly well-designed stages around them. These designs often times take the gimmicks into a puzzle-like place where you will be scratching your head staring at rooms trying to figure out how to use the gimmick to proceed. The vast majority of these gimmicks are well executed and keeps the gameplay always changing through the stages in a way that seldom feels dull.
There are times where I felt the game goes a little too deep into needle, and this is when Ocean Princess feels at its weakest. It's not to say that the needle is generic or poorly made, because it isn't. But the inclusion of needle-heaviness of some of the stages sprinkled in with well-executed gimmick stages feels jarring or uninteresting in comparison. One moment you will be solving amazingly produced puzzles, then the next you are in some needle stage where a gimmick feels like it was shoe-horned in. For me this is where the game stumbles in its pacing, and the needle feels like it sometimes is out of place in the midst of so many other good ideas. I also feel these needle areas really jack up the difficulty making the game only accessible to seasoned fangame veterans where it would otherwise been able to appeal to a wider audience.
Aside from this, the production in the game is pretty stellar throughout. The music is most of the stages is well done. There are optional collectables and extras sprinkled through the stages and an online leaderboard system that tracks of variety of stats.
This is a fangame worth your time, but probably not good for newcomers and casual players.

Unique Gameplay due to deformed spikes and quite fun overall. Music could get annoying after a while but since it's a rather short needle game I didn't mind it. fin.
