This is really nice! The graphics are amazing! The physics feel pretty nice generally, too– the quick-falling feels very ninja-like.

\n

The first few levels were a bit easy, so I thought gameplay was going to be lacking, but once you get to level 7 or so, the difficulty ramps up. Pretty fun!

\n

One small nitpick: the level complete sound is kind of loud, haha. The music sounds nice, but I was keeping the volume down because of that sound

Love the feel / aesthetics of this game. Music is throwback too. Great job. I got stuck on level 7.

Great work on graphics and audio! Not super clear visually where the holes are in the ground.

Nice graphic and gameplay is simple yet enjoyable. The music also matches the game vibe very well.

Looks great - the music fits the style well - and I enjoyed playing it.

This is a great game! I really enjoyed the cat’s animation and the music. Thanks for your hard work. I’d love to play more!

Incredibly good looking game! And some nice platforming too.

\n

I don’t think lives are a good idea for a game like this. Who would want to redo ten levels after failing the eleventh?

Wow! This might juste be the best game I’ve played so far, the movement feels really smooth and the game is a litlle addictive, the audio is pretty good and the graphics too; my only complaint about this would be that I think it could be more fit to the theme, but aside from that, really an amazing game, congratulations and best of luck!

I love the look and feel. The controls felt a bit stilted. In particular, I didn’t like that jumps auto-repeat. But I guess that’s necessary for climbing walls because the gravity is so intense. But you could reduce the gravity, I bet there’s a happy balance somewhere.

\n

Real nice all around tho. Made it to level 22.

This is a solid entry on Android and PC! Wow you did an excellent job on the artwork and game! It was the right amount of difficulty progression too! May GOD bless you and please make an update for this game post game jam!

Fun little platformer! I like the music and the retro sprites. Some of the sprites were a bit blown up though, especially the spikes. Made it hard to see where you can run or not. Big pixels!

\n

The parallax was very effective, but not very utilized.

Lost at mission 15, very cool game, well done!

Great atmospheric music. Cute 8-bit sfx matching the graphics. The graphics is good and relatively easy to read. Controls are pretty good. The wall jumping and jumping up multiple platforms feels a little bit glitchy, but it’s not a blocker. I wish the controller instructions were visible in-game to remind the player without having to go back out of the game. Nice touch with mobile controls!

Can’t get past level 12 but the game feels super responsive and natural.\nKind of wished the cat had 9 lives but but I guess that’d make it too easy.

\n

Looking at the other comments makes me think everyone else is way more skilled than me 😂\nWould’ve loved to see a scoreboard!

\n

I saw Björn’s comment on the controls, I thought it’s just WASD. Did I miss something?

I enjoyed the artwork and music of this. I would say that the desktop controls feel a little bit overreactive (it’s quite possible to do what feels like a double-jump, but it’s actually a second firing of the input at the moment of landing). Good work though.

Amazing game but restarting from the beginning is frustrating. Even if I like non-violent games I think a shinobi game should have swords (and lots of blood). Anyway, this is nitpicking. Well done!

Love the game

\n

The atmosphere is great, the graphics are amazing and the animations work well

\n

Music is really cool

\n

A few times I got stuck somewhere out of sight (down holes) and could still move but not get back to the main level

Very nice!

\n

The game seemed easy at first, but as you progress, having only 3 lives seems not enough :)

\n

Loved the audio! The graphics looks good on wider full screen, but looks better in mobile or if resize the screen and limit the size.

\n

I could keep the up-control pressed to escalate walls. This made this task easier than if I had to hit the control over and over.

\n

Congrats on the submission!
