Beautiful experiment that sparked creativity in needle design of its era. It inspired makers to use spikes for aesthetic purposes and make "floating island" styled sections. Nowadays there are authors who expanded on that formula, turning it into one of the most visually pleasant needle styles. I really appreciate this game for its ideas.
Gameplay wise the game is a relic of a long gone simplier era, which I personally find more enjoyable then any of the recent precision floods or games that try to one up each other with some complex needle techniques or some absurdly made gimmicks.

It's kind of insane this game exists in the state it does, the visuals are pretty horrendous, I know some people find them painful to look at but personally they were fine, just really ugly. The needle itself is probably best describe by the word "incoherent." It feels like there's just random stuff strewn together, very little rhyme or reason. It's a fun game to laugh at but gameplay wise it's pretty damn terrible. If you can't get enjoyment value out of the absurdity of the game then you should probably stay away.

Had quite a bit of fun with this, pretty easy hades-like with some nice saves, it's definitely a lot more balanced than the original and just feels really nice to play. Even if precision needle really isn't your thing, you'll probably get something out of this game.

I feel as if this game struggles to stand out for most of it, just feels kinda basic. The final stage is a neat concept but still sorta just feels simple. It's a good time but probably won't leave a lasting impression unfortunately.

I found myself annoyed consistently with this game, from random jumps out of nowhere that are way harder than others out of nowhere, random fake blocks for absolutely no reason, a kinda weird way of accessing extra, all mixed with needle which is just super basic and lacks almost any interesting features leads to an actively unpleasant experience. This game has some fun saves but they get drowned out by a sea of boring or annoying ones.

This game is pretty obvious in what it's inspirations are but deviates quite heavily from the original uhuhu spike games, I would say the way it's designed is more "standard" than those games but it's also quite a bit more balanced and in my opinion flows a decent bit better. It's simple fun needle and it does a really good job at that, definitely worth a playthrough.

Good maker debut with a short beginner game, that have a decent decoration and nice platforming, trying to change the gameplay in every stage
Also the game contains 2 bosses I felt a bit boring to play for lack of attacks and long i-frames, but I think it does their job
Another notes I want to share:
- Bat sprite of cavern stage could be better with a white border, dying for lack of contrast makes a bit annoying the gameplay
- Respect save after caverns: those platforms could be hard to manage to beginners, and with a long save can be so frustrating, this save could be better executed
- Block sequence in last secret is... so boring, I prefer more block change speed and increase the reaction time
- Last boss: failing spikes are extremely unbalanced
Anyways is a good fangame, it feels that the maker put a lot of effort into the project and that is appreciated, keep it up!
-0.1 points for baiting me with the readme nah just kidding that's my real rating
