Hi, I'm Jopagu. She/they pronouns please :)
I don’t play much avoidance so my diff ratings on those might be scuffed.
Clears list is all the games I played before I started reviewing them. I'm trying to slowly go through those and replay/review them all.
I review games based on how much I would recommend them to others. 0s are reserved for games I do not recommend for ethical reasons. This does not mean I have anything against people playing or enjoying those games.

A charming needle game with some of the vibes of a classic adventure. Throw in a cherry boss at the end and it would fit right in.
The game is relatively simple, but as it goes on it adds some simple gimmicks. I was a big fan of the use of breaking ice blocks. The design feels classical, but it still does a pretty good job of not relying on named jumps.
The difficulty curve got a bit steep, I feel like the last couple stages were a bit awkward at this difficulty level. Some of the jumps just felt overly precise, I think the game would've been a bit better if it stuck to the difficulty of stage 4 or 5.
The final stage was cool, I like the use of power up lines. However, the sound effect was much too loud, and combined with the lack of music it was quite jarring.
Overall, the classic feel makes this game very charming, and worth a play if you're in the mood for that kind of game.

An Uhuhu inspired game. With all the common pitfalls. Bad save balancing, overuse of common jumps, annoying low jumps, and spikes that are hard to see against the background. Towards the end, it throws in some traps, but they're not very creative, and mostly just annoying.
One of the screens ends with a trap where a warp moves away from you. But you can just move fast enough and catch the warp. However, if you do this, it will crash the game :/

A fun little christmas needle game from Verve. The gimmicks are pretty simple, but they're used well when combined, creating interesting little saves. The game is very easy, definitely a super accessible needle game for beginners.
The coolest part of the game was the backtrack, the snow bouncing was used well to create fun paths. I wish the Leap Year ice gimmick was used a bit more, it's very cool but is kind of underutilized.
Overall, a good short but sweet needle game, perfect for new members of the community

A wonderful little adventure game based on RNG Dungeon. The game focuses on randomness, but rarely in a way that feels unfair. Sure, sometimes you get impossible scenarios, but for the most part it's rare enough that they're just kinda funny (the teleport refresher section is really funny when it screws you).
The various platforming sections are really fun, with the funny hand being a highlight. It's a great getting-over-it-like, with the randomness being a unique twist that was really fun to learn how to deal with.
The screen rotating avoidance is cool, it reminds me of ultimate gravity. I love this kind of avoidance where you have to dodge very simple attacks while having to read through intense visual effects. It's a different skill set than most avoidance, with a mental aspect I really like.
The Lads fight is fun, I like how the escalating difficulty is implemented. It also isn't overly difficult, making it feel pretty comfortable, and the simple attacks don't get old thanks to this. Jonathan is the hardest one.
The Miku is the hardest thing in the game by a decent margin. It was still very fun, but it took me longer than everything else combined. Admittedly, I'm bad at avoidances. The difficulty is mostly concentrated in transitions between attacks, requiring some strategizing to figure out how to maximize your odds and deal with bad transitions. I felt like the white apple that makes a trail was the hardest attack, or at least the one that was most likely to just be nearly impossible to dodge when it spawned aiming right at me. In addition, the moments where fruit would randomly freeze and move in a new direction often felt unfair. Normally you can plan for these attacks, but here everything is random so you don't know what they're gonna do, meaning that often I'd just die because a fruit I was expecting to move would just stop, or worse fly directly into me.
The final boss is incredible. One of the coolest things I've seen in fangames for sure. It's the easiest of the three bosses, but has a few tricky attacks. I would recommend the game for this alone.
A couple nitpicks: When jumping up to the final boss, you have to go through a bunch of platforms so I was spamming jump, making me skip the tutorial text immediately. There's no clear indication that things in the final boss can be out of range, I died my first time at the ending because I didn't realize the teleport blocks couldn't be hit from where I was.
Overall, this is an incredible game, super impressive to come out of secret santa. I would absolutely recommend this for fans of unique avoidance-adjacent gameplay.

A 10 floor needle game. The needle is very simple, with only a few vines at the end. I do like the vibes, the game has strong music picks. The difficulty balance is unfortunately pretty bad. Floor 7 is vastly harder than the rest, featuring a precise drop and a straight up 9 jump.
I liked the final section the best, the scrolling camera adds a lot and throwing in vines makes the jumps more interesting.
