Wish we could get more games like this....so rare..this curse of the moons and the current infernax are so awesome....Id rather play these over halo or any AAA games...
This game rocks big time. So does the soundtrack. How did you manage to beat the game in 2 hours is beyond me . It took me forever to finish it myself and a lot of hits as well
This game reminds me of a game I used to play when I was a kid call ninja Gaiden back in the 90s and I still play it till this day this is freaking awesome😊
So, enjoying this footage. I love that he is going in on this so aggressively. I'm playing this game with hesitation while this dude is going all "LEROY JENKINS!!!" in this game barely using any specials. LMAO I can dig it.
This is awkward, I'm at 14h and I'm at about the 2h mark on this video. I'm being destroyed and not even having a great time with it. I just decided that I'm going to beat the game out of stubbornness. Beat plenty of hard games in my life this one is being particularly painful.
Omg your a real ninja..the way you move I wish I was that good but the chapter 2 revisit that stupid orb head kicked my ass until watched video thank you
I was worried about a huge file size, but this one was pretty reasonable honestly. I'll probably keep recording at high res when I play on PC, at least.
Love it thank u bra this game is fantastic and ur good my friend I just one question : why u keep destroying ur little robot friend is like u don’t like wall e ? 🤔😎🇺🇸🤓
I wonder who is that person with the bird in the post credit, before showing the game's statistics. A sequel hook, or just an excuse to show your percentage??
by the appearance perhaps another survivor or descendant of the clan since the facility already torn down and some vegetation grows from it can be assumed a sequel perhaps in a different time and different character
I remember enjoying it for a while but I just didn’t wanna deal with a final boss gatekept behind another boss everytime. That and upgrades required manually traveling throughout the world alike a Metroidvania despite the game not really feeling paced like one. But overall I remember enjoying what I played.
If for any reason, you're looking for a game to do next, I'd really like you to try Ogre Tale. I have not played it yet, so it's not a recommandation. I just value your opinion.
@@Allen-jj7vv Dunno, I didn't like the soundtrack, it really pales in comparison to Ducktales 2, Ninja Gaiden 1-2-3, Shatterhand, or even Specter Knight
10:17 Bruh, Even if you Attack apparitor in This Case, sadly its Still Counts as a Back Attack, even if you didn't going to aim at its back, Really Apparitor????
It has some minor exploration, a few alt paths that lead to a health or magic upgrade, usually. And some of the early stages have rooms that are gated by powerups you unlock towards the end of the game, so you have to revisit them for 100% completion. So it's not a totally linear stage based game like Ninja Gaiden, but it's probably closer to that than a Metroid type of exploration game. I like it.
@@viewfindersisad hell yeah man to me its a fucking mash of Ninja Gaiden, metroid, and shatter hand👊!!!! And the story holy shit dude! i mean come one it was a powerful twist such a great game truly greatly put together and God dammit did it make you want more thats how good it was with all the little references included.
@@LORDKALIBURTHE7TH indeed you are right. I would also add the original NES Strider too. I actually had the chance to interview David D’Angelo of Yacht Club Games about this game when it was first mentioned along with their work on the Shovel Knight series. You can always check that out and many other interviews with folks in the world of anime, comics, movies, & games at talktimelive.com That experience just made playing this game all the more better.
The opening movie to this game made it look like it was going to be much better looking than this... I hate when they do the nostalgia thing on purpose because it just looks like an emulation of a greater game such as Ninja gaiden rather than making a new addition to the great side scrolling ninja genre.
This is the first time I've heard of this game but it looks awesome, it seems like its very inspired by some of the classic 8 and 16 bit classics and I'm definitely going to buy it for PC once I'm finished playing Hades(best game of 2020 IMO)
How come i keep failing and failing parts where you are supposed to airstrike bouncing tree targets? My ninja doesnt want to rebounce but fall too early.
Hi I'm looking for the scene where the Master girl holds out her hand (the one on your thumbnail), can't find it :((( are you able to tell me when/where is it?
That is the real thing they took from the game like ninja gaiden. The stages in ninja gaiden were okay-ish but what made stages a real torture in ninja gaiden is the timer. To balance that up they made stages "hell" and boss fight "cakewalk".
I just beat the TUNNEL CLEANER; it wasn’t a fun fight tbh. There’re some challenging boss fights that give you that gratifying feeling when you beat them - the TUNNEL CLEANER was not one of them. And the dash is giving me a hard time as well.
It’s weird in chapter 10 there’s no green thing that drops slime and then there’s a block to go into a entrance but I don’t know how to jump and power attack it open it looks totally different from your footage
i really like the game but i live in brazil and 38 reais for 2hours of gameplay (2hours for getting 100%completion) i don't think its worth my money But for anyone that likes the game and don't worry about money i would recommend it
Wish we could get more games like this....so rare..this curse of the moons and the current infernax are so awesome....Id rather play these over halo or any AAA games...
This is like Shinobi and Ninja Gaiden mixed together. Perfect 8-bit/16-bit nostalgic vibes throughout the entire game.
with some Mega Man Zero
@@DamonDukes1987 yes sir
@@DamonDukes1987 exactly what I was thinking
Game takes apparently 10 hours to beat...
Iconoclast 1 hour after release: 100% completed
This is so weird to watch without shadow going UUUURRRRRGGGGHHHHH every 40 seconds.
This game rocks big time. So does the soundtrack. How did you manage to beat the game in 2 hours is beyond me . It took me forever to finish it myself and a lot of hits as well
06:02 hours / 442 deaths, the last screen is the report.
Amazing btw, I finnished it in 11 hours.
the references to ninja gaiden, shatterhand and shadow of the ninja are evident but so cool. Waiting for a physical version.
If I was 10 again, playing this game would have been a dream of mine. The graphics, the music, the level design. It's perfect!
It's a great game. I'm about halfway through it so far. Thx for the real time "strategy guide"!
This game reminds me of a game I used to play when I was a kid call ninja Gaiden back in the 90s and I still play it till this day this is freaking awesome😊
Thank you. First video I could find on 4K with somebody that actually knows how to play.
So, enjoying this footage.
I love that he is going in on this so aggressively.
I'm playing this game with hesitation while this dude is going all "LEROY JENKINS!!!" in this game barely using any specials. LMAO
I can dig it.
He? I thought it was a she playing.
I never heard of this game and what I see is a hidden gem
Honestly, since I watched this video my shadow skills got much better.
Appreciate this gameplay video much more now.
1:40:42 God, you did *NOT* just reference both Darius *AND* Contra 3 in two sentences!
**claps slowly...**
An easter egg-ish?
*First three seconds of intro play*
Me: "I MUST FIND THIS GAME."
You can tell this guy is a mega man master. If you like mm or any ninja games you can almost feel why he moves this way.
Bro the soundtrack is amazing from the beginning of the video u know this was about to be amazing
Such a damn good game and soundtrack with all the nostalgic vibes. Replyaing it on my PS5 and can't wait to see what else this studio has ahead.
The soundtrack in Chapter 4 is fxcking awesome.
I love Chapter 1 & 6. The latter sounds similar to some of Axiom Verge tracks
NES Ninja Gaiden vibes all the way.
Потрясающий навык игры! Смотреть просто одно удовольствие! Автор молодец!

Your playing is so smooth.
The Soundtrack is sooo good.
awesome fucking game, awesome visuals, awesome music, awesome run ; great vid dude =]
Man I'm not bad at video games but this game certainly made me feel like it. Got to orbital elevator and had to put the controller down...
This soundtrack is fantastic !
This game is really great! I have just played 3 times, but more than 1 month:)
Just beat a casual playthrough last night. Sixteen hours! Ooph.
So am i. Hate this game 😠
16 hours!? I beat my first blind playthrough in 6 hours
you see the trick is to abuse the dash slash and risings flames and ground pound I was honestly disappointed with how easy the final boss was.
1:37:00 this part reminds me of Zillion II: The Triformation tri-cycle gameplay.
Yo respect for remembering that game. I had it on the Sega Master system. Those were the good ol days.
This game looks and sounds amazing
Omg your a real ninja..the way you move I wish I was that good but the chapter 2 revisit that stupid orb head kicked my ass until watched video thank you
Ninja Gaiden to the max!
Wow, i never thought you will record on high resolution like this. It took you a day to finish uploading it, right?
I was worried about a huge file size, but this one was pretty reasonable honestly. I'll probably keep recording at high res when I play on PC, at least.
@@iconoclast575 yeah, that's what i mention. Btw, why don't you play more NG3RE? I see you still haven't finished the series yet, what happened?
Love it thank u bra this game is fantastic and ur good my friend I just one question : why u keep destroying ur little robot friend is like u don’t like wall e ? 🤔😎🇺🇸🤓
Having ads every two minutes hurt because otherwise this is a solid 100% LP
Add block is my best friend 😜
I hate the way RUclips does the automatic ad placement lol. I changed it.
@@iconoclast575 Thank you
what did ihe little robot due to you for you to keep killing it. Poor guy is only trying to help you
Cool reminds me of KAGE/Shadow of the Ninja and Ninga Gaiden.
Super chingon este juego de lo mejor de 8 bits .
My only gripe with game devs that make their own retro games are the soundtracks.. they just overdo it with the synths sometimes I feel
Its a combination between Megaman, Super contra, Ninja Gaiden, Castlevania.
I was played this
It became my favorite game❤❤❤
A mi se me hizo mas difícil que la mierda, pero es un juegazo. Excelente gameplay

2:00:19 Does this boss battle looks like your fighting against Gamma from Mega Man 3? Cause it sure does.
Many places look similar to Shadow of the Ninja from NES (hero, levels, bosses).
I remember enjoying it for a while but I just didn’t wanna deal with a final boss gatekept behind another boss everytime. That and upgrades required manually traveling throughout the world alike a Metroidvania despite the game not really feeling paced like one. But overall I remember enjoying what I played.

I uploading NoDamage Run.
This video is so helpful for me!
Good job!👍
I love the music sooo perfect have this game a physical copy for ps4 ???
This game is a nostalgic masterpiece!! Can one of my gaming Conrad's please tell me what system I can enjoy this on and how much 🤔
It's on pretty much every platform, Switch, PS4/5, Xbox, PC, and even Mac for $19.99. It's been going on sale more often for around $15.
Playing it on game pass. Pretty solid game, although I feel like it doesn't really do anything particularly unique.
Agree. The soundtracks and the pixel graphic are only two amazing things in this game.
@@Allen-jj7vv Dunno, I didn't like the soundtrack, it really pales in comparison to Ducktales 2, Ninja Gaiden 1-2-3, Shatterhand, or even Specter Knight

It's like ninja Gaiden 3 nes version
1:30:36 First few bars of NES Ninja Gaiden 2, opening scene music
He made chapter 8 look Easy lol took me 4EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR LOL
Late on this, way late, but the character at the end with the hawk; is that an 8 Eyes reference?
Can anyone explain the ending to me?
How did you do this so fast!? It came out today lol
when you already played ninja gaiden this game is a peace of cake
Anyone catch the Ninja Turtle reference in Chapter 3? LOL
Yes i did with the pile of empty boxes of pizza 🤘

I hadn't heard of it. It looks good, I'd definitely try it out some day.
I'm happy for you but at the same time it bothers me how good you are at this game. It hasn't even been out that long.
obviously he got a copy early. that's how he was able to do it, although you'll hardly ever hear these people admit it.
Looks like Shadow of the Ninja, like, A lot.
Wait so, Exo was that girl with the big sword?
Did you unlock a sound test when you beat the game? Because I'm having trouble on the final boss and want to know if it's worth it to keep trying.
I didn't unlock anything.
There will be NG+ and hard mode in the future, its already confirmed.
@@radicalratretro Then I hope that either there's a sound test also coming or Pentadrangle and/or Jake Kaufman publish the soundtrack soon.

Hold up on the controller, then hit attack
This game is ridiculously hard and FULL of bs at times. I still really liked it though.
Beat it in 10 hours and I'm hoping for a sequel.
