very very cool game but do not let my playtime fool you this game has no save and quit checkpoint system so if i got stuck on a boss I would simply leave my pc on overnight. we are not in the NES era please add one I'm begging
The combat feels razor sharp, the movement is buttery smooth, and every fight pushes you to get better without ever feeling unfair. It captures that classic Ninja Gaiden intensity while adding just enough modern polish to keep things fresh. If you love fast, skill based, old school action games, try this. Also the sprite work is gorgeous
Very good game Simple and fun Awesome music, smooth movement, satisfying combat, good story That's what i want in a game Simple action and a fair challenge 10/10 Thank you for all the people involved in this masterpiece Your work is really appreciated God Bless
