short needle game where the entire idea is that you have a dot hitbox. I found the premise quite interesting, since dot hitbox needle isn't explored nearly often enough. it's a bit of a strange thing to introduce into needle, as it's typically a gimmick/idea seen in avoidances with high bullet density. the dot hitbox provides an interesting gameplay mechanic, allowing you to stand inside spikes to a degree. if this was true for all spikes, it would become increasingly more difficult to design even semi-intuitive needle around this premise, as you would be able to skip large swathes of the game. to help this, full-hitbox spikes are introduced as well - to ground you, in a sense. this is all fine and well, but I feel it's not long enough. more unique screens could be made as well, rather than just taking random screens from popular games. it's somewhat lazy, which I didn't really mind too much but still took note of. the game is also visually very displeasing, I don't like whatever color the background is meant to be

Very charming game where you basically have selective dotkid, used in some pretty infamous screens. Ends with a super easy avoidance which is even easier than the needle. Fun stuff though, the concept is super cute!

An easy needle/medley with an interesting gimmick, where some spikes treat your hitbox as dotkid, and some don't. I liked the medley choices since they are mostly iconic screens from much harder games, but adjusted to fit the main gimmick
