Description

Tired of watching the same boring human condition routine since the dawn of time, the Mo0n suddenly awakened and tore pieces of our planet Earth apart. Step into the shoes of a group of unfortunate souls, the Ninzas, who were also swept up in the cataclysm. Fight with ferocity and cunning, for the Mo0n will only favor the most relentless warriors who can entertain it. Push your limits and unleash your creativity, for only then might the Mo0n fulfill its promise to grant your deepest wish.

Ninza is a multiplayer fighting game like no other! Instead of directly attacking your opponents, you crush them by pushing pieces of the level. Embrace chaos and dive into an entirely new level of frenzied and creative gameplay, where the environment itself becomes both your weapon and your enemy.

Each character has a unique moveset and abilities, guaranteeing unexpected outcomes and thrilling comebacks in every battle. The game offers ample room for crafting creative strategies, tricks, and traps. But be warned, becoming a true Ninza master demands great determination. Only the boldest players can rise through the fierce competition and aspire to earn Mo0n's respect.

History

Kaihnn initially developed a platformer game prototype with the aim of creating a satisfying ninja character movement. During the creative process, Wuthrer joined in, and together, they introduced various types of platforms to enhance gameplay. Some of these platforms could fall down, leading to a critical question: what should occur if a player found themselves underneath? This question sparked a "Eureka moment" – why not focus on this mechanic for character elimination?.

The prototype's development progressed rapidly, becoming playable in under a week, with hastily added graphics. We presented the rough prototype at a game festival, where we received tremendous feedback. Players found Ninza's core mechanic highly interesting and believed it could lead to a uniquely original and enjoyable game
