MangaNinja

🎮 Manga Ninja A platformer without a jump button. In Manga Ninja, you cannot jump. Instead, you throw a shuriken into the air, create a grappling point, and pull yourself toward it. Every movement is deliberate. Every mistake is visible. Every success feels earned. 🥷 Core Gameplay No jump key — only shuriken grappling Precise mid-air movement Skill-based platforming Easy to understand, hard to master You must read the space, predict your arc, and commit. 🎨 Visual Style All stages are framed like manga panels. Inspired by Japanese aesthetics and minimalist design, each environment offers a different rhythm: Dojo Bamboo Forest Canal Cave Castle Rooftop Lantern Festival Each scene brings new traps and pacing. 👤 About the Developer This is my first game project. It started during my undergraduate years as a small idea — "What if a platformer had no jump button?" After friends tested it and kept retrying “just one more time,” I decided to polish it and bring it to release. The journey of building it has been as important as finishing it. 🎮 If You Enjoy: Precision platformers Grappling hook mechanics Challenging but fair gameplay Indie experimental mechanics You might enjoy Manga Ninja.
