The Bad Buddies will be waiting for you, you have been warned!
Learn to Use Your Ninja Hook !
and use it to overcome many obstacles and foes during your journey. Swing between platforms, shuriken your enemies and swing again like nothing happened.

Your main weapons are your shurikens !
You can throw them, you can pick them up from the ground, you can deflect them and you can get killed ! But when you run out of shurikens, only your melee skills can keep you alive long enough to reach that last shuriken stuck in the ground...
If you complete the missions you will unlock other types of weapons making you even more unstopable!

The Solo Or Coop Missions
You can try a little solo adventure alone, or challenge your friends in a quick mission. Completing the different missions will unlock in-game rewards that will be useful to the gameplay or not !

Fun split screen game for PC's. A very well done game, obviously one i have played a lot. Would definitely get, very easy to run and affordable(of course), Well done Corbak Games.3 found this helpful
I actually did a trailer for this game way back when I was doing paid editing work. The bit of the game I did get to play was fantastic and I'm happy to support this game in anyway, especially now that it's free!1 found this helpful
"Shinobi Bad Buddies" — это аркадный экшн с яркой графикой и динамичным геймплеем. Игра предлагает классическую формулу «ниндзя против врагов», с упором на быстрые атаки и точные прыжки. Плюсы: увлекательные миссии, разнообразные оружия и стильная анимация. Минусы: скудный сюжет и повторяющиеся механики на поздних этапах. Подойдет фанатам быстрой игры, но не оправдает ожиданий тех, кто ждет глубины повествования.

I guess creating content is hard. The game featured both PvP and co-op modes, none of which went viral (the game was a complete flop, check the player counts below). The "pick up shurikens" and rope swing mechanics didn't add anything to the old, stale, dead, and boring platformer game focus. So, Shinobi Bad Buddies is a dead multiplayer game. Why did it fail? It's video game autopsy time! The chief cause of failure is the developer thinking that their game will "go viral" without actually creating any reason for it do so. Competition amongst multiplayer centric games is extreme, and there's only a finite player base to appeal to. This game failed to reach any kind of cri…
