Ninja Boy Returns, dashing to itch.io, platforming all the way

Ninja Boy Returns is out on itch.io – a platformer built around the unique and innovative core mechanic of dashing!

The eponymous Ninja Boy has the ability to dash a fixed distance in front of him, and can use this power to defeat enemies and navigate difficult platforming challenges reminiscent of old school platformers. In addition to a series of 20 levels, the game also offers the ability to play these through with a friend in local cooperative play or try for the fastest time in a specially designed speed run mode.

Its release exclusive to itch.io is in protest against Valve’s recent alterations to Steam, including the inception of Steam Direct, making it harder for smaller developers to get their games onto Steam, while itch.io remains friendly to customers and developers.

Ninja Boy Returns is available now.
