The game is fun, I liked how the NPC/Master shows you how to do it! you can try my game too
I really liked the protagonist's sprite animations, especially his little idle dance to the beat. The running animation looks really smooth and cool, but it's such a vertical map you rarely get to see it all the way through. Nicely done!
Oh thank you so much! I had little time to polish the artwork, and focused more on making the mechanics work. I'm so glad you liked it! <3
Really awesome game! At first, there was a bug where even if I didn't press anything the character would just go left and it kinda makes the game 10 times harder but after a bit, it stopped which was good! The gameplay was really simple but I feel like the jump is a bit too floaty to me maybe making it heavier would make it better. I would also love to see more variations on the parkour that utilizes the ninja aspect (throwing shurikens at things, etc). I love the interpretation of the theme where you have to follow a ninja master in its steps, its really creative! The visual design is very simple but maybe a bit more polish on the ninja to make it blend more with the environment would make it better! The audio design is also well done! Although simple, its music and sounds effects are effective and I like how there's also options to turn off the music and sound effects. Overall, really great job and well done!
Thanks for the feedback. The bugs really made the game difficult. I intended to add more items and content related to the ninjas but I had little time to work on the game, I started the project very close to the end of the submission for the Jam. Anyway, I'm very happy that you liked it and I promise that I will improve the game.
