For: I wanna Awful Needle 4
Difficult, but very rewarding needle game with consistently satisfying design. Almost every save is inventive or clever in some way and I had a lot of fun with everything the game threw at me. Easily the best of Lucien's standalone games.
While I think this entry in the Awful Needle series is a fairly large step up in difficulty from the rest and best appreciated by veteran players, it's not a terribly long game, so players looking to push themselves into a higher "needle bracket" might enjoy it too.

Other reviews have already mentioned its humanly impossible, so instead here is something funny about the game:
Literally everything is the game is from the default engine, or GameMaker 8's "Making for first game" tutorial. The Fruit, the Background, hell even the Music and Explosion Sound Effect. The only sprites not from either of those are the dots and the solid color Blocks. Thats it.

This was obviously made by someone from the western community, I don't know who but it's very easy to tell this is trying to imitate the style of an old crappy eastern fangame but it's painfully obvious that it isn't.
The game features some funny quirks like the bullets being spikes but only one direction and the jump sounds being switched with each other among some other things, but it also has a lot of not very funny stuff like the overuse of screen spinning and some eye straining graphics, though I will admit the bosses are pretty epic. If the game didn't come with god mode then I would've dropped it very early.
Overall I can definitely see the potential in this person as a maker, but I feel he should really go back and play more old eastern bad fangames and truely try to imitate what they do but give it some new school flare to make it stand out.

Even after all these years, Kill the Guy stands up there with the greatest adventure games out there, with a huge variety of gimmicks, puzzles and challenges to provide the player with, and all covered with very well thought out design.
I was wary of how the engine would feel 7 years since I'd last played this and that the 30fps gameplay would bother me, but I adjusted to it incredibly fast. Nothing feels too precise or demanding that the different engine makes a real difference, and the main difficulty comes from a couple of tricky puzzles or boss segments. Despite that, nothing feels too obtuse or demanding, and it's all designed carefully to be pretty accessible for players of all skill levels.
Kill the Guy also features a bunch of bonus challenges, secrets and customizables to make The Kid look more like you've always wanted him to. The bonus coins all feel well placed and designed around and whilst I didn't end up going for all of them, I enjoyed the ones I went for. The secret and optional stuff just feels well done overall.
Overall just a great game. It's a shame to see it unfinished, but even it the state its in it stands as one of the all time great fangame adventures, and one that's well worth anybody's time.

Fun needle game and great music, but it was gate jump city central. There were a lot of interesting segments but some were extremely boring and repetitive

How, HOW do you ruin a needle game that looks so promising! I can't believe this game had 4 test players!
It starts as a chill beginner fangame with creative needle design, but from the end of first stage it becomes a pure aids fest full of diagonals, gates and extremely annoying 16px gaps (feat. terrible difficulty curve).
I'm very disappointed. At least graphics and music are very good.
