| //Needle Day// is an annual event which occurs on November 11th, or 11/11. It was chosen for being the "pointiest date", suiting the aesthetic of [[ghost:Needle]]. The event is not formally organized with rules, but instead, the developers of Needle ([[dev:Galla]] and [[dev:Zichqec]]) release an update on the day, and new shells may be released for download as well. Fans of the ghost sometimes submit additional shells of their own. | //Needle Day// is an annual event which occurs on November 11th, or 11/11.

| The third Needle Day was the first to have releases for the day besides shells for Needle. | The third Needle Day was the first to have releases for the day besides shells for Needle and a content update. Needle v1.1.3 was released for the occasion and brought Needle to 1000 dialogues, a record in the English community at the time. It was nearly beaten out by [[ghost:Skrunkly]] which was updated less than 24 hours prior to Needle Day and was only a few dialogues short of 1000. The achievement was declared a shared victory by the devs. |

| On November 9th, Galla and Zichqec presented a pseudo-crossword game in the Ukagaka Dream Team Discord server.

The puzzle was {{event:needle_day:crossword_2024.png?linkonly|solved}}, and so the balloon [[balloon:Needloon (readable)]] was created. | On November 9th, Galla and Zichqec presented a pseudo-crossword game in the Ukagaka Dream Team Discord server.
