About The Project

TODO: add screenshot

Here's why:

• I am a huge fan of NES console and enjoy japanese setting
• The game has an immersive gameplay I wanted to recreate

My version

This section gives a clear and detailed overview of which parts of the original game I planned to make.

The minimum I will most certainly develop:

• Stage 1 level, including boss-fight.
• Basic combat system.

What I will probably make as well:

• Shuriken throw.
• Additional character abilities.

What I plan to create if I have enough time left:

• Level transition animation when: 1) character is dead or 2) character moves from one location to another.
• Cut-scene in the beggining of the game.
