About Ninja Scroller

As the legend says: "To own the scrolls is to own the shadow and to cheat death."

Description


Ninja Scroller is an action runner, that is to say that we start from the constraints of a runner, then we add action game elements.
You have to collect the 100 Shadow Scrolls and defeat the Guardians, Ninjas and Wolves, within the time limit.
If you are hit and the number of Scrolls collected is greater than or equal to the cost of a Smoke Bomb, then a Smoke Bomb is launched, you survive! Used scrolls will need to be collected again. The cost of a Smoke Bomb depends on the difficulty level.
What would be a good USP for an action oriented runner?
Stop running! It allows you to break the rhythm, catch your breath and analyze the situation.

Features

  • If you lose it's always your fault.
  • Use intelligence, reflexes and stamina.
  • 7 levels of intense and epic difficulty.
  • More than 55 achievements.
  • At least 4h to complete the game at 100%.
The first Steam player to complete 100% did so by:
24242 seconds or 6 hours 44 minutes and 2 seconds.
As for the other players, none have passed the third level :)

Designer's notes


The estimated time to finish the game is the time it takes me to finish it 100%.
So it will take you at least twice as long.
For the content of my games, I always prioritize quality over quantity.

I've been playing this game since the pre-alpha versions in 2021. Experiencing this game's journey and development has been so much fun and has opened me up to new kinds of games that I otherwise would not have picked out for myself. Ninja scroller is an easy to understand but difficult to master action runner with fun graphics and mechanics. While I enjoy this game a lot, I am not necessarily *good* at it, but the challenges that come with that make the game compelling and entertaining for me, and keeps me as a completionist and achievement fiend motivated. This has been a fun game to introduce my stream and discord community to!

An infinite runner with an intriguing mechanic that allows you save a run, but the environment and enemies don't seem appealing due to their excruciating repetition. Running forward is still automatic. You can use the ever-popular jump, attack, and dodge. Attack is typical and doesn't require any explanation. You just need to make sure to press it before the enemy is on top of you because your sword's attack pattern takes a few seconds. It’s nothing unusual to kill several with a single swipe. When executed properly, jumping is great, but when not, it is a surefire way to fail. The majority of my early deaths were caused by jumping too late and believing I could hit opponents while jumping. Why this doesn’t work is because you can’t attack during the jump animation. The attack is possible only when you start falling. That’s where the dodge button comes in. While on the ground, this move grants you invincibility for the duration of the dodge. But if you press it during the jump, you will fall down quicker. This is invaluable when you miscalculate the jump. What’s unusual for this infinite runner is that you have an additional button to stop and assess the situation. Yet, you sho…

Cool pixel art and the sounds really fit the theme. It's a nice scroller and the achievements keep me going. Well done!
