Features include:

  • An exciting and innovative dash mechanic at the core of the game.

Still not sold? Ninja Boy Returns is based on Ninja Boy, created for the GMTKJam, where it won an honourable mention. You can try it right here on itch.io. Ninja Boy Returns features vast improvements over the jam version, including tighter controls, more refined levels, a greater breadth of content, and a range of technical modifications.
