An April Fool's game that is fairly short but loaded with trolls.

Yeah, the biggest problem with this game is the background. It makes the spikes almost impossible to see. The level design, however, is rather excellent and surprisingly original for an "easy" needle game. Wholeheartedly recommended, as long as you can bear the spikes almost being invisible from time to time.

Outstanding 121-floor game, very well produced. You won't get bored despite the low difficulty (on 500possible anyway), because the game makers weren't greedy: most gimmicks appear very few times (even only once), which makes the overall game very diversified. Essentially, it's Genki lite.

I'll start with the good parts of this game. First, there is a story! An actual, well-developed storyline, which is actually really great and by far my favorite part of this game.
Also, the treasure chests are already a bit common in fangames, but this game gives a Zelda-ish feeling, thanks to its puzzle-oriented nature together with the constant need of unlocking different paths with different items to progress in the game. I honestly would like to see a few more items, like a Hookshot, or maybe a Spinner, but that would probably be asking too much.
The stages are also incredibly great, mainly Stages 3 and 4. Stage 3 has the Great Bay Temple (From Majora's Mask) music, and the stage's design also reminds me a lot of that dungeon, in a really good way. Lots of switches, puzzles and exploring. By far, my favorite stage of the game. Stage 4 is also good, featuring a sub-boss for the first time, and lots of funny, well-made and well-animated traps.
Being able to switch between weapons with X + arrow keys is quite useful once you know where each weapon is, since you can switch instantly between them, allowing a much more flexible game (Try switching weapons in any Zelda game. You'll understand why did I like this game's system so much).
The bosses are a bit tough and simplistic at the same time, but still fun (The first one is a bit too RNG-based, but nothing that will take you more than 20 tries, if you're really unlucky).
Now, moving on to the bad side...First off, the story is in japanese, and there's no way of translating it. Meh. Awfully high death sound and sound effects, with a fitting restarting music. Way to ruin the mood. I really didn't like the platform wheel screen in the zoomed in stage. Memorizing where each fireball is coming from and avoiding it while making the wheel move is really annoying. And the last boss' spinning attack is one of the most boring and pointless attacks I've seen in a very long while.
That being said, the good parts are awesome enough to make up for the bad ones, I guess. Would recommend.

This is one of those games where the screens start off with no spikes then spikes are added each time you beat it. I really dislike this concept because the level design gets boring having to beat just slightly different versions of what you just played. I found most jumps to be very tedious and repeating the same weird super-F variation was pretty annoying, not to mention in the end you need to do a downward plane after one of them. Also without jump cancelling this game would be significantly harder. I did like the art style of the game, but overall I found the hard segments were trying to hard to be difficult which made them really unfun.

Less generic than the first one, with a better level design and some troll-ish saves. Also has better visuals. It's quite fun, although some saves can be frustrating for some. Would recommend, maybe.

Generic needle game. Difficulty curve is all over the place, sometimes being quite challenging. At least, the jumps don't seem randomly placed for the most part, although some shortcuts were overlooked, which makes me think that the maker didn't bother enough with the level design. The visuals are nice, but aside from that, nothing worth checking out. Wouldn't recommend.
