Loved the aesthetic of the scrolling camera.  Loved the ninjas' sound fx.  Appreciated the note that the left mouse button was important.

They seem to have an attack pattern that involves bouncing around aimlessly for 10 seconds and then retreating. I hear they're weak to fire!\r\n\r\n***\r\n\r\nThis is my first entry to LD, and I'm very glad to have committed my weekend to it. This has been such a great learning experience, I really had no idea just how much the pressure of the clock forces you to improvise and commit to less-than-perfect.\r\n\r\nI am obviously not an artist, but I do some audio work and have experience with Unity. If I could do something different next time...I wouldn't, because what I floundered with showed me what I need to work on for next time. I'll open up Blender more than twice a year, for a start!\r\n\r\n(I probably could have done without spending a few hours researching shaders I was never going to write)\r\n\r\n***\r\n\r\nJust realized that there's no quit button on the executable. Whoops. Alt-F4 ftw!\r\n\r\nThe game's difficulty varies by resolution, and seems to perform really poorly on web. I don't have the profiling tools to really figure out why, but it's still playable.","title":"Suddenly, Ninjas"}
