Before reading play this game blind!! I did, and had a great time :)

Another game that i came across while searching through delfruit. I loved this, it has a very cool atmosphere and vibe with good music and really interesting visuals, i though the dark-ish theme of the game was super cool, each stage (especially the first few) has really unique and stunning visuals, i also *did* like the first stage, which most people call a visual challenge, i can see where that sentiment is coming from though the blocks and spikes are pretty easy to distinguish and the gameplay is very simple. Alongside this, the game seems to follow a exponential difficulty graph, so the first stage is quite easy. As for the rest, it's just great, good usage of gimmicks while keeping the gameplay enjoyable and well-balanced, there is a skip i found, but it's not really an issue since it saved like 3 jumps.

Overall, I *love* the design in this game, i love the visual theme, the gameplay is super sick with good gimmicks too, I would heavily recommend playing this if it appeals to you.

P.S. i did also clear this at midnight in pitch darkness, very immersive experience, would recommend.

The atmosphere is great, like the music and the aesthetics, and the addition of a practice mode is some good QOL. Gameplay is good for the most part but the game's overall balancing I found to not be great as screen 1 is incredibly easy, and screen 2 is decently easy aswell. I also noticed that a good chunk of the jumps are kinda just more developed-upon gates or diagonals, and some of them were awkward like the semi-shuriken in s3 & s4. I also did not like the vstring drop at the end of s4. (tbf it's not required and it's likely easier to not do it but Shut Up I wanted the Swag Points) Basically i'm just saying it's a good game with good atmosphere and does easy ftfa-like pretty well but most of the jumps are super easy so you'll be spending your time with only a select few really. But this issue is not that bad because there's a practice mode.

Overall i'd recommend it a good bit, but i'm not giving it a very high rating because i think there's a lot to improve but if you want a good and accessible easy ftfa-like with good atmosphere play it.

I did NOT expect this game to be this good, it's a really cool looking needle game with screens that vary a lot more around water & vines, with different types of water aswell , the way the game expands upon these gameplay elements i found to be super engaging and great, made me use my brain to figure out what to do at a few spots which was fun, not too long aswell but also not crazy short or anything, has well-designed pathing and overall just really good gameplay alongside really calm visuals.

i'd heavily recommend this

playing to die!
it's a great game, i love the aesthetics outside of the main avoidance, good music, the practice things (or however you'd call them) are a really cool addition (not really a spoiler, but just in-case you want to go into the game blind), and the ability to change screen shake is a cool touch too, though personally i didn't use it because having it go wild was part of the fun

super cool attacks inside the actual avoidance, love the song ofc, and i think the representation of the song was really exceptional aswell, a good few attacks that fit perfectly alongside the song and almost everything is synced to the music not just the beats but the melodies too etc, created a super intense experience and definetly raised my nerves a lot at the end :sob:

gameplay i found to be almost completely great, the game does seem more intense than it is at certain points but i don't think that's really a downside and it makes you feel like an absolute madman while playing so i'm definitely not complaining about that, i did find it *decently* unbalanced, well, the section at 0:54-1:10 to be a decent bit above any other section in difficulty, i think this is because it can range from really hard to not too challenging depending on how quick its moving imo, but like any other part of this game it got very consistent after a little bit, it just takes a good chunk longer than any other section to actually get consistent at.

Edit: I didn't really go into much detail but the game's attacks are effectively 100% consistent (i think, unless you pull some unbelievable rng at like the start), it's just a matter of learning & getting consistent and the game supports this linear progression with it's practice system letting you practice and then progress it rarely if ever feels like you had no control over your deaths, and the attacks are super engaging too.

overall, loved it, my favourite avoidance currently as of writing this, super intense and fun with a cool hub aswell. Would heavily recommend giving this a shot.

also i agree with murzikk i'd suggest playing this blind, i did (except for seeing the first ~30s which made me play the game before it released here), and it was a super cool experience, did almost pee my pants at the end though.

I really love this game, it's a very good experience with fun needle gameplay with a few not-too encumbering gimmicks, has beautiful visuals which i loved, great soundtrack, and an overall vibe and story that just added to the experience. It's around a hour or two long, depending on your needle skill, so it's a good length and not too short. (Game length spoilers, I'd recommend going into this game completely blind personally)

Alike Oti's other game, I played this at midnight in complete darkness, I would actually recommend other people do so (just playing it in darkness in general, though, be warned, you will get flashbanged..) as it really immerses you into the game's atmosphere and is such a cool experience.

The game itself going into more detail comprises of darker visuals and elements, but a really cool and enjoyable ending aswell, i personally loved the long save at the end, and the ice vines too, from what i've seen making good needle gameplay at this difficulty range with long saves is pretty difficult to do so in a fair way especially when the player doesn't know how long the save is, but i think this game does it right, massive props (ending stage spoilers)

overall, really nice visuals that were a massive vibe with good atmosphere, great soundtrack, good gameplay and not too difficult, hard recommend.
