When it comes to fangames, platforming gimmicks are some of my favorite things. This game fits the mold excellently, featuring 8 different stages, each equipped with their own gimmick. The gimmicks are of varying quality, with the Black and White maze of World 5 and the Screen Wrapping Skyscraper challenge of World 3 being a few of the better ones. There are a couple lackluster ones like the unoriginal infinite jump challenge of World 6. World 2 had a really interesting trigger maze however it only lasted 3 screens which was rather disappointing. The bosses were pretty uninteresting for the most part. Almost all of them were simple avoidance type bosses with some way to do damage. The attacks were pretty boring and the bosses were a pain to fight some of the time. The best bosses were the ones that made use of the gimmicks from the level they were in. The World 4 boss may have been the neatest, forcing the player to continue moving right at all times. Possibly the most disappointing part of the game is the final boss, which rather than being a cool compilation of all the different gimmicks we had learned over the 8 Worlds, we were greeted with a cookie cutting infinite jump boss with incredibly generic attacks. While I sound very critical, I only do it because I love the game so much. The highs are very high and I feel like if a few things were fixed this could be my favorite fangame.

Fairly easy avoidance, but has a couple tricky attacks, and the barrage at 0:30 can be annoying if you don't know what you're doing. Seems to be based at an anime opening.

Cool puzzle-ish fangame with 10 floors. Through the game, you'll get special bullets of different colors, and you can shoot spikes with them to change the behaviour of this spike. It can become solid, turn into water, start moving, block flying spikes, simply fly away and a few more.
The only issue is that the signs aren't in english, so people can struggle a bit to learn how does the game work at first (Mainly the red spikes). Also, one of the bullets requires getting through a moving spike right at the edge of the wall, so when you come back, you can't see it and will most likely run into it. Luckily, you can see the moves mirrored in the moving spike of the other room, but still, that's not nice.
Aside from that, it's a very cool game, and gets challenging quickly. The 10th and last floor is the worst part, as it forces you to use differents combinations of spikes until you get the right one, but there are so many bullets scattered through the map that this becomes hell to do. Well, it's a puzzle game, that's to be expected. But this one makes nice use of the platforming as well (At cheap ways, sometimes, mainly when a moving spike is involved). Overall, it's a nice game, but I wouldn't recommend for those who don't have much experience with fangames, as these will get double frustration - From the puzzles and from the platforming.

2-screen-long medley. Nice musics, and the visuals could be worse, but the game is way too short and the two chosen screens are quite generic and uninteresting, just like the boss. Hardly anything worth playing. Wouldn't recommend.

A great sequel to the original. the game follows the same format where there is a hub leading to various stages, each with its own theme and boss. This one has 6 stages plus a final, where the original had 8. Some of the same gimmicks are present like the auto-run, tower, and black and white, but the game is overall a bit harder than the first one, but in a fair way.

This is a great game and a great sequel to the original.

This is basically some sort of Korean troll game. Booby traps and trolls all over the place, and bosses that seem to be asian memes of some sort. Optional bosses and secret are required to see the end, which includes the infamous "Gay Tower" from Culture, and a final boss thats so stupid it will turn the hair on your balls white. If you played Culture, you saw the best part of the game, unless you like giant asian faces smashing you in the dick.

If I took a shit and put it on the wiki, this is probably what it would look like.

I've played this game over and over! Every section of platforming is well designed and really just satisfying. There is some variety to the bosses (1 purely avoidance, 2 others you need to deal damage), and they are on par with the platforming in terms of quality. Production value, from the music to tilesets and the 'bread' theme/story is definitely top ten among the fangames I've seen. The difficulty is just right so that it's suitable for beginners yet not boring, even for a more experienced player.
