This was an interesting experience. On one hand there's a ton of generic corridor needle, basically no difficulty curve or save balance and a couple terrible gimmicks (autorun, spotlight) but they're all interspersed with interesting platforming in between, some neat (albeit poorly balanced) boss fights and good application of standard gimmicks as well.
Fundamentally it ends up being a pretty fun experience because despite the major faults, the game has an identity and variety that keeps you engaged.

What an incredible challenge this game was. When I first saw videos of Crimson Needle 2, I thought it was way too difficult to beat for my skill level. But I decided to man up and try anyway.
As a player who hasn't played very many fangames, I didn't feel all that confident trying to complete a 90+ difficulty game. However, I knew the challenge would be fun, rewarding and worth it. I became surprised by how quickly I was beating some of the later floors in the game, like 50-70. I realized that I can beat the entire game as long as I stay determined, and thankfully I did. This is by far the most rewarding fangame experience I've had.
As for when the game gets truly difficult, I actually did not really have any long grinds (3 hours or longer) until floor 98 and above, and that's what really surprised me the most. I thought I would start struggling to even get to floor 30.
The final boss is incredibly fun and not really as difficult as you might think. It may seem a little unreasonable at first, but after you come up with a good strategy, it's really not that bad. It took me 10 hours, which is not that long for a hard fangame boss. I'd say it is about as challenging as Kamilia 2's final boss.
And of course, what makes this needle game better than most is how it does not rely on spamming corners and diagonals to be difficult. There are a ton of really interesting, unique, challenging and fun jumps. Also, the visuals and music make the already good gameplay experience even better.
Overall, Crimson Needle 2 is my favourite fangame (for now at least) that is definitely worth playing.

Very simple needle platformer with great level design. Great place for beginners to start out, with easy jumps and many save points.
