I personally wasn't a fan of this. It sort of felt like 70% of the game was really cool and fun and the other 30% was bogged down by aidsy and semi-unbalanced saves. The atmosphere of this game is very well done though and I could definitely see why it is such an influential and important fangame in the Needle genre.

One of the most visually pleasing fangames I've played, Catharsis offers a variety of unique platforming and top tier spike art. Catharsis contains few "gimmicks" and it uses them sparingly, rarely have I played a game with gravity reversing saves I actually enjoyed. The easy difficulty is a good way to be introduced to the needle genre and the normal difficulty is a great challenge that nevers feels oppressive. Overall an A+ needle game.

80% of the screens are really fun, but I can't stand the reverse gravity gimmick. Overall there is a wide range of platforming designs along with some interesting gimmicks.

Hardmode Clear. Difficulty is around 70 to 75. Decently challenging with some nice gameplay. This game could be the first fangame that combined art and gameplay perfectly.
