Absolutely phenomenal tribute to the original marathon games, in Save the Ship you traverse 4 old school nintendo themed stages, with megaman, kirby, mario, and metroid themed platforming and bosses for you to tackle. These are all executed very strongly, with some of the best adventure game platforming I've ever seen in my life. I absolutely adore the bosses as well, they are super fun, especially the metroid boss, and the final boss. I can't recommend this game enough, it's an absolute masterpiece, and if you like the marathon series, this is an absolute must play!

Extremely easy and simple floor game, there really isn't much here in the gameplay department, and as such the only real value I got out of this game was the wild visuals. It wasn't bad or anything, but it's not super enjoyable either, and as with most floor games, I think there are far better beginner fangames out there.

Pretty solid trappy adventure game, it has a few weakness like end of save traps, and the second stage being a bit lacking as far as gameplay goes, but for the most part it's pretty fun, and the bosses, specifically the first and third ones, are quite good. It's simple but enjoyable enough!

how not to make needle 101: tons of corners, diagonals, planes and other unfun jumps
a game that embodies generic spanish needle. the makers were so insanely lazy that they didn't even add sprites that fit the original games' sprites, they just used the same ugly generic spike sprite in every single room. when I say every room, I mean every room. this is a minor complaint but it just speaks to this game's laziness and uninventiveness. it whole purpose is to be a compilation of needle saves. not even full screens, just saves. this is like the needle game equivalent of those shitty vine compilations from 2015 youtube.
stylistic gripes aside, this game is structured in a very standard, basic and unchanged way, like every other generic medley game. 4 stages, 4 secrets, stage 5 is the guest stage. the secrets are somewhat interesting, but have the same gameplay as a bunch of screens from the stage the secret is from. they hardly feel like secrets considering how they're practically indistinguishable from the rest of the game in terms of gameplay. visually, yes, they're different, in the sense they're actual full screens, not just one half-assed save that was copied. what I find funny though, is that in initial versions of this game, every featured save was actually a full screen at some point. Sword Slinger made a video playing an old unreleased version of this game (v0.61), where stage 1 appears to feature a bunch of full screens that aren't just one save. it's like a completely different game, what happened to this version of the game? was it too fun? too good? too enjoyable? I don't get it, I really don't.
guest stages are lame, all 3 areas aren't very interesting or well-made to any sort of degree. lemon area sucks the most and sandsky is the hardest. I'll lump in true stage into this part of the review, as it comes after the guest stages and the subsequent end of the game in terms of progression. I guess it's one of the better stages, there's certainly better needle, considering it has a full CN1 floor as the last screen, and a really good CN1 floor at that. I'd go as far as to say one of the best CN1 floors considering it's part of the Needle Satan tileset, which I remember being really fun and enjoyable. the rest of it was just more standard-ish single-save crap which was like 5% more interesting than the other single-save crap before it. the L-game save they added was kinda cool, I guess.
not much to say other than disappointing and overall not great, don't play this

Decent trap fangame with poor save difficulty balance, enjoyed some of it but traps are pretty uninteresting for the most part.
