About the Game

Description

Play against your friends! Local or Online 2-4 Players. Control one of four Shiny Ninjas with the ability to dash in any direction, during which you not only slice through the enemy ninjas but can also pass through magical paper lanterns, which are spread throughout the level. This grants the Shiny Ninjas access to shortcuts around the otherwise dark level.
Kill all other ninjas or claim their bases to become the last ninja standing.

Key Features

  • Dash forward with a Light-Infused attack to dispose of enemies or pass through illuminated barriers
  • Backport ability allows you to protect your base quickly even when you play agressive
  • Your strategy must change constantly to react to and counter enemy behavior

"If light travels so fast, how come it's never caught a Ninja?"
