Pogo Ninja

Author Comments

Hope everyone enjoys Pogo Ninja! It's my first flash game of many!

This was my final project for Interactive Animation Design. Over the course of a semester, I independently (mostly independently; with the help of Prof. Jablonsky) taught myself enough ActionScript to be able to create this 2-D side scrolling game. I ended up receiving an A on the project and for the course, but that doesn't mean it will make a good game. You guys will be the judge of that! I'm looking forward to all of your comments and criticisms to make my next game even better!

Controls:
Hold Up - Bounce
Left & Right while bouncing to move.
Release the space bar to fire shurikens.
Don't jump to high or you may come crashing down!

The game may be a bit difficult, but don't be disheartened :) There is a checkpoint!! If you get stuck, here's a hint, use your shurikens by releasing the space bar!

probably about 100 hours including teaching myself the actionscript. i think i can make it in alot less time now and much much better, it still needs improvements :P

thanks!! :P

great art

really liked the art, but the game is programmed badly, a moving platform should always carry you with it :(
and jumps seemed a bit too fast and you couldn't go forward to fast, and not being able to see very far ahead of you makes it hard to play.
nice art tho...

gtapper responds:

ahhh i know everyone i had test it, that drove them crazy. but i had trouble programming it. hopefully when i become more familiar with actionscript, ill be able to program it better :)

thanks!! :D

hmm

Seems like a cool game and has a very good intro, but the physics are off, and the controls feel very"sticky", for one his bouncing is too fast, go and find a pogo stick and use it, and you will get a better feel for how long it takes to rise and fall, cause this feels more like trying to ride a jackhammer.
