Kinda weird needle collab, it has a lot of pretty standard needle, no gimmicks, named jump, that kind of thing, but most of it is pretty enjoyable if a little forgettable at times. If you do extra you'll find more of the same as the main game except the second save in EX Jimaba is much harder and worse than the rest of the game, it just has some really awkward jumps. In contrast I think EX IeF is the best thing in the game, align maze stuff is cool and it's pretty fun precision needle. I didn't love anything in this game but I didn't have an awful time with anything either, it's fine.

generic needle game with some slightly interesting pathing near the end. it's a quick clear and doesn't feature many prominent chokejumps or balancing issues. it's a surprisingly smooth experience for what the maker is known for (i.e. Coffee's CN side stage, being one of the less fun areas). it's a pleasant surprise in that sense. it features two stages which are largely in the same style. there's also a pathing issue/oversight somewhere near the end of the game, I believe it's in the 2nd-to-last screen. you appear to be able to skip the entire second and third saves

two really good classic-style Miku fights by LunarMagic. both are pretty good, but the right warp is much better, more difficult and has one of the best Miku songs ever made. this game doesn't look too interesting and is relatively unknown, but I urge you to give it a shot if you like classic Miku stuff or just old avoidance in general. both avoidances mostly consist of simple patterns that are quite easy to learn and are fun to execute. they also have some RNG, but it's nothing insane. right warp is harder, left warp is easier
left warp has less interesting avoidance design and an okay song. it isn't the highlight of the game, but it isn't necessarily bad or unfun. there's some remembering what to do near the end, but for the most part it's pretty readable and easy to understand. right warp is the highlight of the game - fun design, good difficulty and (as I said) one of the best Miku songs ever created. it's iconic and fits the theme of the avoidance very well. there's one pretty annoying pattern at the very end which isn't really easy to understand, but everything before it is extremely fun and well-designed. it has some of the best, if not *the* best flow of any old avoidance I've ever played. despite being nothing special for current-year standards, I feel it still holds up quite well considering its age

It was fun until the purple city stage. It sucks hard from there.

One of the author's lesser known works, despite not being necessarily his oldest one (this was his 5th work apparently). This game is pretty short in itself, being a present for Dagger (600 Niconico community member celebration, I guess? Or something else revolving around the number of 600). However, did get the Wiki release as well.
Author says that even beginners can beat the game, but I can say that it is probably gonna make beginners angry, even if you were to play this game back then.
You have 3 screens / 4 saves of very generic needle. First save has 2 consecutive corners you need to do and the second save has 4 of them. Third save is the easiest one having several half diamonds and diamonds. And the last save has a ledge jump, few quite easy jumps and the only trap in the game.
After that you have a very generic boss. Boss runs from one place to another and has 3 attacks and very long i-frames. After you beat the 50% of HP, the boss uses the spell and your screen gets cut in half, and the left side is higher than the right, so you cannot even see the health bar anymore. 1 of the attacks is an easy pattern, other 2 can give potentially bad RNG.
Bad visuals, restarting guy rock, lame gameplay, you name it. It is a really bad game.
I have initially cleared it in 2022, and I did not like it already then. Replaying now was quite painful. Especially the first 2 saves are annoying.
My initial ratings would have been 46 and 3.6, but now after beating the game in 2025, I changed my mind.
For the needle section I give 54 difficulty (could be a bit too high, but I think that first 2 saves are not easy) and 1.6 rating. For the boss I give 39 difficulty and 3.2 rating.
Just watch my clear video on YouTube and do not touch this game even if you have an access to it.
Would not recommend.
