A fun platformer with a satisfying yet punishing basis. Your movement is quite fun to use once you get the hang of it! It's just a tad awkward with how the current controls are bound. But the way the level design progresses is actually really creative with how it starts making you combine the upgrades you've been given! Not to mention the music adapting as you get further in? Love that! Also the small touches of the ninja slightly bouncing and his eyes and scarf reacting to his jumps are a wonderful little touch!
A few nitpicks for me personally mainly consist from the awkwardness of the controls at time. The dash feels like it goes a bit too far for certain sections, the wall jump could be a natural part of your kit as opposed to being locked behind dashing, and the sword is charming but feels really awkward to use in the middle of platforming. Again the controls are the biggest set back here. Both S and Spacebar being used made it quite confusing to get the hang of.
Overall a SOLID entry though! This is a first entry? I'm impressed! A little polish here and there and you've got something really great!
