I think the game has a lot of potential. The AI could be improved a bit and maybe a few more possibilities of movement. But for this Game Jam, I think it's a great game with a great concept and good graphics.

Good Job! ;-)

Having red the description I thought the game was going to be a lot more complex but actually it was really intuitive once you were in playing the game! The music also worked well with the game! The concept also fit the no winning and no losing them really well! I also like how you incorporated being able to play as either a hunter or a ninja meaning you could experience both sides of the gameplay!

The map design could have maybe changed each round like having a rock somewhere or different patches of sand placed strategically for more tactical gameplay: this could have maybe been procedurally generated? But, I get its a jam, so time constraints are definitely heavy! Some particle effects for when you change into a hunter could have been nice too.

Overall, the concept was executed very well and made for a very unique and enjoyable game!

Awesome game! Amazing concept ! Good Job ! 

Very interesting concept which can be build upon to create a truly addictive game. Personally I think that it would greatly benefit from a multiplayer mode. Also a good idea might be to implement the use of power ups for the last guy standing or obstacles for the ninjas. My point is that I love the creativity behind it and I can see it growing bigger :) Great job!

A well put together game. Its kind of a forgone conclusion when you are the last one left though so would have been cool to be able to turn the tide against the black ninjas in that case. Kinda like a pacman power pellet to run to before they get you or something. But overall really cool. I especially enjoyed watching them all fight it out in the rounds after i lost.

The music is really nice and the concept is interesting.  However I'm not sure if it works for a game unless it was multiplayer, or even in real life (which I'm guessing you got inspiration from or there is a game similar).  It would be tough to make a multiplayer for a game jam but it would be cool with bigger levels and powerups and stuff in a large multiplayer party game.  Good work overall though!

Cool game! Good job

Very creative concept! Was a bit hard to understand that you have to become a black ninja when at least one gets turned, but my mistake for not reading closely. The sand was a little awkwardly placed in my opinion, and music went well with the game. Good job!

I like the idea but since it is very simple I would expect it to be more polished. I'm sure it was more complex then it looks though.

Hey! I love the creativity on this one. I didn't realize immediately that the first one caught also loses, but I think that's on me.
