I play fangames or stuff.
I try rating game compared to what they are trying to achieve rather than compared to fangames as a whole, and with knowledge of what you're getting into; If I rate a corridor needle game, I assume the person reading the review wants to play corridor needle, as if they don't they shouldn't bother playing it anyway. With that said, I tend to be very generous on needle ratings while being very skimpy on avoidances (although you likely won't see it as if I'd give it less than a 7 I just won't clear it instead).
with extremely rare exceptions, 9/10+ is reserved to games that have left deep emotional impact, while 10/10 is reserved for games I love unconditionally.
If I reviewed it and the review doesn't say otherwise, it's safe to assume I cleared it. I try adding my clears to df but I never really cared to keep track, so some might be missing.
don't expect diff ratings to be very accurate.

A giant 3x3 needle maze utilizing gravity arrows, triple jump and a few minor triggers to create an intertwined path from start to end. The game comes with a map to help you find your way around, which unfortunately does not show triggers and may lead you to a dead end. Additionally, the 3rd save may lead you to a save that is intended to be done much later on by doing a ledge and will heavily hinder you on your path, to the point I found it easier to just start a new game. Aside from those problems which I find relatively minor, the pathing is very neat and trying to brain my way around it even with the help of the map was very fun. The needle itself alternates between heavy usage of diagonals, corners and tbones among other assorted generic jumps that is well-designed enough to not be bothersome to the more freeform drops and climbs utilizing vines and platform jumps. The final two saves belong to the first category and pose a fairly significant difficulty spike, overall taking away from the experience slightly; Other than those two, the saves feel balanced and chill overall, and I've had a good time with it. Would definitely recommend for experienced players, especially those who like pathing needle.

30 rooms of 32 pixel needle, each with its own minor theme such as a certain block formation, a popular screen layout, symmetry, or a bunch of optional corners. Despite being 32px it never feels generic, even when it does utilize generic jumps, and provides very satisfying maneuvers as well as a good variety of jumps, and overall this is some of the better "normal" needle I've played. It also helps that some of the longest & easiest screens can be skipped by doing a couple precise jumps. Do be warned though, as difficulty balance between screens is a bit over the place, with 1 screen in particular being especially annoying, and utilizing cancels in a couple places is definitely recommended. Would definitely recommend.

1 screen of non-cohesive jtool needle, mostly corridory but has a couple more open sections that somehow still feel like the rest of the map. Of note is the 3rd save which starts off with 16 px platform grab followed by 2 2frames in a row, for being the most annoying save. The engine is bugged to the point where you might hear the doublejump sound while singlejumping. S saves that don't save on the entire save hitbox and an option menu which allows you to set keys for a/d which you aren't even given complete the experience. Would only maybe recommend for people who enjoy a small fix of corridor needle, otherwise stay away, especially if you're a beginner.

7 nice stages full of bruh nothing, 1 really good sudoku stage that would be unfun in a blind playthrough but hilarious if you expect it, 1 stage of mediocre (if funny at times) beginner needle, a callback stage that's pretty fun (if somewhat too short and easy), 2 pretty fun avoidances and a great final boss. Unfortunately, the parts that aren't bruh nothing make it bad as a beginner recommendation, but due to the large amount of bruh nothing it's hard to recommend to an experienced player unless they wanna chill after doing a bunch of hard shit. If you find yourself in that position though, this game is a great way to cool down while also having some genuinely fun segments later on, and I'd recommend having it in reserve.

1 screen of "hades-like" precise dotkid needle. Pretty fun, except for the forced dotkid clips that feel like rng because vstrings (those that have a setup such as save 7 or those that are given the entire save for the jump such as save 8 and the last save are alright), and saves 4 and 5 for starting with awkward low jumps. While the execution can be improved, the concept remains interesting, and I'd definitely want to see more games of this ilk - if somewhat more refined - in the future.
