The background can get a bit distracting though. The level design was really quite good, it made me feel pretty cool to trow shurikens while hanging from a rope. Also the sound effects were very satisfying and felt great! I just wish you didn't have to start the whole game over when you die, I feel like restarting the level would keep the player's attention more. Great game and awesome mechanic!"},{"author_name":"HuntTheWumpus","author_uid":"30702","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 4:27pm","epoch":1387297320,"text":"Very nice graphics (and parallax background!)

This is a really awkward layout for a keyboard, making the game unnecessarily difficult.  Also, it doesn't seem like I can hoard ninja stars?  I wasn't sure if I lost my inventory after going through a door, or if I could hold no more than 2, or what, but it was a disappointment after cleverly avoiding having to kill samurai on earlier screens, thinking I'd saved a star, to find out that I didn't have as many as I thought when I arrived at the next challenge.  I felt like I was deprived of a reward for being clever.  \r<br\/>\r<br\/>All in all quite good, but needs a few tweaks to become great."},{"author_name":"BradleySmith","author_uid":"14944","time":"Jan 6, 2014 @ 5:07pm","epoch":1389027720,"text":"Neat pixel art style and colour pallet. :)"}],"images":["ld28\/30703-136bbffeef72acfcaa702ab14fb5e651.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/75988986\/Ninja-kun.zip","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/dl.dropboxusercontent.com\/u\/75988986\/LD28.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"20678","g_author":"30703","g_event":"LD28","g_eventkey":"20","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"20707","g_title":"Ninja-kun's Final Exam","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"306","g_commentcount":"23","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/30703-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Only the final ninja exam stands between Ninja-kun and his future ninja career.
