Bug fix 2003/02/03:

-Sometimes after jumping attack, latter attack won't works.I modified some codes to fix, hope it works on your computer.
-Recover Full HP after stage clear.
You can choose "continue" when game over in stage 2.
-Attack with "Haste" can recover your HP. And press "Up" again can turn "Haste" off.
-"Haste" doesn't work after game continue.(FIXED)

Hint:
- boss1: Attack from his back as close as possible.
- boss2: Jump to avoid hit by the wave.Using guard when boss attacks.

"Kinda Cool"

date: March 28, 2008

This game was way too easy and way too short.

For one thing, it was kind of dumb that your nimpo point would recharge over time. If you wanted to, you could could just do something else for a little bit in between each screen and then clear each screen just by hitting down. Maybe you could make it so that you earn it by dealing damage to enemies or something...

Also there wasn't much strategy involved. It was just attack attack attack attack. Maybe you should add more different attack moves and then put in combos and stuff.

Maybe you could also add a hard mode where the enemies were faster and tougher.

As for the story line, it seemed pretty uncreative. It was also too cursory and didnt explain very well what was going on, like why she was immediately attacked upon entering the future...It also didn't make any sense at the end where random people just helped her, but maybe this will be better explained in the next one.

I did enjoy this game, and I hope you make a sequel.

"Truly great for its time"

by: ralip1
date: February 18, 2008

The game was way to easy. The fact that you could just wait to gain your... haste (bar or whatever its called) and just use your kage slash from stage to stage takes the significance out of every non boss battle.
It was pretty fun though... a bit too short.

But for its time, it was PERFECTION!

"Very nicely done!"

date: January 21, 2008

Is a cery good game, reminds me of the old Shinobi games I used to play. Graphics could be a bit better, and the sound was kind of okay, but the gameplay was solid all the way through. Good job, and I hope to see more!
