Mostly fun, but there were a couple of spots that almost ruined it for me. Biggest problem was the overuse of upward planes -- two saves with multiple planes and a bunch more scattered throughout. I don't mind them but toward the end it became really obnoxious. The notorious sphincter jump isn't horrible if you can cancel but it's still pretty dumb.

Otherwise, lots of fun stuff with a totally random difficulty "curve," which varied the pace so that's fine.

I wanted to wait to review this, but I won't be getting through the final area any time soon so I'm doing it anyway.

This has quickly become one of my favorite games. Most of the jumps are interesting and, more importantly, fun to execute. The tougher saves were enjoyable to grind and sometimes even felt educational. There are some very precise jumps, but nothing too unreasonable or over-the-top. I'm tempted to recommend it to people who might not feel comfortable with high-level needle but want to push themselves in that direction, as that's how I went into it.

That said, the final area is significantly harder and I have not beaten it. The platforming itself is pretty consistent with the rest of the game, but the saves are 2-3 times as long. I think that's appropriate and it gives me something to work toward, but I'm definitely not there yet. So take this review with a grain of salt, I guess.

Fantastic platforming, gorgeous backgrounds and tilesets, great music. A ton of unique jumps and clever segments. The jump sound can be a little annoying, and there are a couple of dumb saves, as you'd expect from a game like this. But easily one of my favorite needle games. Wonderfully designed and produced. A joy to play.

Unique, super-short, metal-themed needle with a simple rng boss. Yeah, medium difficulty is really easy, but higher difficulties are a lot more fun with significantly buffed platforming. (Hard mode is like a 50 and very hard is at least a 70.) I highly recommend playing on hard unless you're a beginner.

Short, but the platforming here is spot-on in my opinion. Fun and pleasing design. Does use a lot of similar jumps throughout, but I liked them. Difficulty is relaxed and many of the hard-looking segments are nerfed or give great align. The visuals are simple and a little brash but give it a cool Space Invaders atmosphere that I really enjoyed.
