Such a fun and creative game! Very cute lil ninja guy :)
Encountered a small error when the red spikes fell on me! Also i was unfortunate enough to be hit by Lord Mouth-s balls after a killed him, heard the music and all, but i was teleported back to the start with no music playing this time.
With this out the way, i have only a few things in mind:
Axe feature is perfect, needs moooore levels! Great game!
Very neat Gameplay with a lot of potential!

Very addictive entry, I'd love to play a version with more than 4 screens!
Oh man this is great! Thanks so much for that thorough review!
I hope you could find something of use here. It's just my personal way of telling you my thoughts about your great design! Ofc. if you do draw some inspiration from that, I'd feel more than honored, but it's not necessary, as I'm just a learning designer myself :)
At first i was kind of irritated by the fact that i have to redo the same actions again after dying (sometimes i dont like such games), but man! It was amazing! I kept playing and I defeated lord mouth xD!
I like how there are different ways to kill the enemies and the teleporting feature is amazing
I liked speedrunnning through the level xD my best being 35 seconds! I liked the animation sounds, movement and all too
14:40 and 18:25 shows the winning runs :p
Awesome video! I'm so glad you liked it! That last run was excellent :D
Thanks! :)
Original style and enjoyable game play, loving the axe, well done
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Very nice gameplay ideas! Too bad it's so short ><, I'd like to play more :D
Haha me too! I'm planning to continue working on it and make it much longer. Thank you for playing!
Wel[, the gameplay is fun, the axe mechanic is awsome, and the music feel's just great!!! Amazing game!
Thank you for playing! I'm happy you liked it!
I really liked the mechanics of the axe. But I find the arrow keys to move unintuitive. WASD would work better for me.
Thanks for playing! What buttons would you use for axe mechanics instead of Z and X?
Left mouse button for attack and right click for throw. Even if you can only hit left and right, I prefer the hand position with "WASD" and mouse. But that's probably just a personal thing of mine.
Great game! With a bit of thinking involved, loved it!
Thank you!
The axe throwing/teleportation mechanic is awesome! The movement and fighting also felt very good. I think with more polished art this could become a really good game. Good job!
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it! I’m planning on spending the next month working exclusively on the art. Any thoughts on directions I should take?
I think the monochrome style with bright accent colors fits the game really well (Maybe also use some orange/yellow/green because blue and red are overused imo :D). Otherwise I would go with classic low resolution pixel art for everything (similar to "Downwell" for example).
Really creative mechanics!
Thank you sheriff!
This game was awesome ! The game Mechanics where creative and the stages have implemented those mechanics in a cool way to use !
Thank you so much!
Basicaly a 2D god of war with some teleportation :D I love it! Not sure if it really fits the theme but its a great game none the less.
Glad you liked it! God of War was the main inspiration, with a little bit of Downwell and Katana Zero :)
Oh yea downwell has some cool mechanics
Really clever levels that make great use of the mechanic. Where the theme though?
Thanks for playing! It started as wanting to pack vikings, samurai, and ninja in the same game, so I added mechanics from all 3 in the one character. I guess I could also say you have the send Lord Mouth packing haha
Super cool mechanics !
Thank you!
