Ninja or Die: Shadow of the Sun

Ninja or Die is a deadly blend of brutal challenge and elegant simplicity, combining incredible speed and a unique control scheme.

Master the brutal precision of platforming in medieval Japan as a deadly secret agent with lightning speed. Strategically use minimal controls to fight your way through frantic 2D levels that will take you deeper into a world of ninja vs. ninja carnage and subterfuge.

EASY CONTROLS CRAFT WITH SPECIAL SKILL

Be quick, be agile, and do it all with just one button. Leap where you point, eviscerate your enemies with your punches, and attack with increasing force.

ENDLESS ACTION

Use acrobatic platforming skills to evade and destroy hellish bosses with helpers equipped with parachutes, throwable weapons, and magic. Use speed and cunning to avoid sharp weapons, deadly poisons, and dastardly traps. One wrong move and you’ll have to start all over again.

ROGUELIKE CHALLENGE

Take on a variety of procedurally generated and handcrafted levels, unlock new areas, and replay familiar ones to pump up your memory. Die fast, but keep trying even faster with instant respawns and permanent upgrades.

UPGRADES, PROMOTION, OPTIMIZATION

Use legendary weapons like katanas and shurikens and upgrade their stats at the village blacksmith. Raise your melee, ranged, defense, and magic stats, collect scrolls, souls, and suspicious-looking food to upgrade your abilities, or just pay the local doctor. Unlock new playable agents and master different playstyles.

ONWARD AND ONWARD

Climb the endless watchtower, run through the endless corridor, but don’t stop. Fill out your combat log and beat your own records for kills, jumps, distance traveled, and damage taken and dealt.

STYLISH JAPANESE PIXEL GRAPHICS
