Well we'll be very active here as we make edits and changes to the game based on your feedback. Please invite your bros and have some larger games and let us know what you think / what you would like to see

Still working on it; had it set too low earlier today and we were killing ourselves by jumping

lavish storm
#

yea i can lower the ceilings im still trying to find the right spot for them that helps with smash style roof kills without accidentally killing you for jumping too high hahah

a tip is to make it so that they only die while in hitstun, this way you cant accidentally do that

also for some reason, when ur sliding or dashing its kind've hard to move

like there's a delay when you let go of your key

it moves you a set distance- thats why dash feels awkward. if it was merely a movement speed buff with non instant turnaround, it'd feel more comfortable to many a platfighter's hands

One last thing

#

the player doesn't have the same physics that are applied to the bots?

hulko

left junco
steep crag
#

they both have huge kill power, but since there's almost no endlag on attacks there's no downside. @lavish storm the whole point of smash attacks is high risk high reward (kill power), or to be used as a punish for shield breaks

#

and without that endlag it's a little favoring towards those types of characters

lavish storm
#

appreciate this feedback for sure, will be making balance and mechanic tweaks ongoing till it feels great 😄

left junco

#

then again, early game fighting metas do lean towards simpler characters until the skill ceiling raises. If you nerf him now keep in mind he may never be viable again. An excellent example of this is Super Smash Bros Ultimate's Ike. @lavish storm

Update!

  • Can no longer move when doing a smash attack. (tap direction then attack quickly after)
  • Squareee can still move while doing smash attack, other characters might get this ability depending on their final balancing and attacks.
  • Can no longer move when doing a ground pound (tap down + attack in quick succession)
  • Quick Play is now offline, so you wont be affected by server updates, etc while playing quick play.
  • Quick play now remembers your progress between sessions.
  • Lobby navigation improvements (can return to lobby from mid-match and end match as a host, or rejoin, or become a spectator.)
  • Can become a spectator in the lobby to just watch the fight happen. Spectators take up a room slot.
  • Chat bugs and UX improvements
  • Camera and UI sizing improvements.
  • Bugs fixed! Optimizations made!

Hope youre having fun 🙂

@lavish storm did you fix the top blastzone? it feels better. Also wanted to talk about the possibility of uptilt, if you removed up as the jump button (to bind it as a key somewhere else) and instead made it a directional attack inputlike the others that adds the possiblity for upsmash and uptilt which might become crucial tools for some characters

fading spade
edgy acorn
#

Okay so first impressions:

  • Really fun, controls are easy to figure out
  • Overall the goal seems very vague - obviously it's very similar to Smash but if someone's never played Smash then they're probably gonna be very confused. For example, one might be confused as to what the percentages mean if the whole goal is to knock someone off?
  • I love the simplicity and the pixel style is great, it just feels a little misleading when the title is all hand drawn and cartoony and cool shading and stuff, and then you get chucked in and you're a pixel blob. They're both cool on their own, but they seem very separate
  • (Pretty much just personal preference) but I'm not a HUGE fan of the arcade-like physics and wish there was more realistic gravity/floatiness rather than you just pressing a button and going in that direction. I'm not sure what the word is but I'm sure you understand what I mean (again, it's clearly meant to be an arcade style game so realistic floaty physics wouldn't perfectly fit but oh well)
  • Aside from my small nitpicks I really had fun, super awesome game overall I think (and it also kinda gives me vibes of that one multiplayer tag game on Poki and a few other sites which I really like cuz it's so simple lmao)

Anyways yeah that's my impressions from my first 5-10 mins playing, can't wait to see it unfold 🗣️

@lavish storm I'm having problems with the knockback. For example, if i input a forward smash, my opponent should not go up. Once I even spiked my opponent with an up air just because he had been positioned just on the underside of my hitbox. In other words, at some point could you associate certain attacks with knockback directions so that they kill properly and earlier at 100% instead of 500%-700%, please?

left junco
#

But it is one of the only ways light characters can beat heavy characters, so a counter might imbalance things

short zephyr
#

The directional thing might be a fix as I submitted a bug last week before you guys saw it that Up-Air specifically was hitting people in the direction the attacker was facing and not the direction they were actually hit, so might be that now up-air is jsut shooting them in whatever direction they're hit, which could be down 😛

#

will look at it!

steep crag
steep crag
# short zephyr will look at it!

testing it right now w/squaree and it seems like the knockback is based on the positioning of the opponent relative to my up air.

ok i didn't understand. sorry!

One thing I really like is in Super Mario Odyssey, Cappy gives vague hints as to what you might want to do if you're stuck - for example, if you're stuck at the bottom of a large wall, Cappy might vaguely mention throwing Cappy then bouncing off of him to gain extra height

#

It's great cuz it doesn't give too much away, and because it's Mario's sidekick giving the hints, it doesn't feel forced in

ive noticed that if your fighting a smaller character whos at high percentage and you hit them up, sometimes the'll teleport to the side or smth. i assume it has to do with collision and stuff but i wasn't sure if it was a bug or not

lavish storm
#

I think whats happening is the bots dont have the same "ceiling detection" that players do so if you punch them up into a solid floor / ceiling from underneath it, they will 'warp' to the nearest other side that has no blocks... so just a bug, ill get it fixed in the next update tho!

left junco
#

Great, thanks!

lavish storm
#

Anything else you guys really want to see in the next version? My current priorities are:

  • proper move hierarchies (making sure each move has a "counter")
  • better bots
  • general bug fixes

But big picture stuff in the pipeline:

  • Proper progression + level up rewards
  • Special move(s) for each character.
  • Accounts for saving progress
  • Music + Sound Effects
  • More Animations and Character Art

Id love to see online matchmaking

The prob with that is the game is verrrrrrrrry hackable. And i see all the stuff the shell team goes through with fighting hacks and i feel like thats no life for me haha

Very true lol

You can basically just spend whole weeks not doing anything cool to improve the game but just fighting hacks because a bunch of the email you get is people complaining about hacks 😄

Ahh

#

That but with spaces

lavish storm
#

ohhhh yeah good call!

#

retry Day X

#

ill think of something for that

severe flax
#

Or maybe just a way to select certain maps and bots

lavish storm
#

hmmm yeah basically like "presets" for map + bot combos?

severe flax
#

Ye smth like that

lavish storm
#

Let me think on that, i actually dont think it would be too hard... the hard part is finding somewhere to put it in the UI. Picking the Day might be the easier way to go, like maybe in the character select when you choose Quick Play, theres a dropdown box for "Start on Day X" - then on the quick play match complete screen i can have a 'Play Again" option that lets you replay that battle again

severe flax
#

Ohh yeah

#

I think that would be perfect

lavish storm
#

so you can always go out to the title screen and choose "Quick PLay" then "Start on Day 5" and if you want to change your day, just back to title screen again and choose it again

#

cool ill do that up for ya! 😄

the info text takes up most of the screen while the actual menu is squashed off to the side. I'm guessing this isn't intentional?

Right-click on your desktop, click Display Settings or something similar, then look for Resolution, should be a number like 1280x720

1536x1024

Even using that resolution it looks fine for me, so maybe its an extension thing

edge, but no incog

short zephyr
#

So it DOES look like that in edge, but does NOT in incog?

lavish storm
#

It could just be a cache thing - if the css file is cached/old it will display like that since none of the rules to format the text are there. Control+Shift+Refresh or forcing a refresh whatever process that is should fix it.

New Ninjas Update:

  • Better scaling on smaller screens (chromebooks) so everything fits into the screen at once
  • ability to choose previous battles as your starting battle when doing quick play (thanks @severe flax !)
  • also cleared cloudflare cache so hopefully CSS should update properly

Anyone want to play

I wish that during the character select screen you could see what the attacks are as you input them in the screen, that way you can compare move sets without ever having to load a match. It'd also help introduce new characters to the community, I think.

#

Not a priority rn tho

lavish storm
#

Oh like if you could use the arrow keys + attack, etc to actually control the little preview animation? That would be cool I’m gonna add that to the wishlist 😊

theyre doing games to survive

that is recent

bc they need it

but they r losing their soul

classic .io game

short zephyr

It also is not super popular haha

upper widget
upper widget
#

at least on my school a lot of ppl used to play it

and still play it i believe

short zephyr
#

Doesnt have to be one of our games; I'll accept any recent popular game that is original for the purpose of this conversation

upper widget
#

oh

#

sidequest (funk) r doing cool original games

#

not quite popular tho

#

yet

#

but still i don't think it is the originallity what kills, "remixing" is good if you enhance the original product

#

to my mind

#

i understand ninjas is in very early developement n y'all (devs) will work hard on it

short zephyr
#

Yeah if you look at the "Popular" section of Crazygames, half of them look like the ads youve seen in mobile games 5 years ago. Tis just the way of browser games

upper widget
#

yeah i understand that

short zephyr
#

hard to reinvent the wheel while keeping it playable on a school chromebook

btw have you heard of pelican party studios

Well i understand if u r kind of mad at me, bc u have reason to be i don't pretend to judge im not a dev and i no nothing bout game industry, just wanted to know.

short zephyr
#

Sorry if it came off that way, i swear I'm jsut talking haha

#

Just trying to make the point that its hard to be completely original in the web game field, and even in the big Steam/Console field

upper widget
#

yeah but bwd only makes web games bc their based on js right?

short zephyr
#

If you look at the game that literally won Game of the Year at the game awards this year and swept with the most awards won in other categories, Expedition 33 has the turn-based system of Final Fantasy, the UI of Persona, the dodging of Super Mario RPG, etc

left junco
short zephyr
left junco
#

and then implement them into your own game

short zephyr
#

So if looking for a fast-paced 2D fighting game, Ninjas looking to Smash for inspiration is pretty logical as I would say it's one of if not THE best game in that field

upper widget
#

yeah ik, just wanted to imply it looked at lit no worked enough

short zephyr
#

that said, we don't want to just clone and re-skin, so we are looking for some things to set it apart, and like you said, it's early development and only worked on by one person who unfortunately has some other stuff going on and cant touch ninjas for a bit, but if you have any suggestions or specific criticisms, definitely drop them here!

upper widget
#

Well with that i guess its good work if just one person was involved

short zephyr
#

if theres something specific you don't like about it, let us know! Something you wish it had? let us know!
But "this game sucks" unfortunately doesn't help us make it better

short zephyr
#

"its jsut like smash" doesn't help either, especially when other people who like smash are telling us to make it MORE like smash 😛

left junco
#

Who doesn't like a good round of Smash Bros?

short zephyr
#

I am also one of those who like smash and keep suggesting smash-adjacent additions haha

upper widget
#

i said earlier that ro my mind remixing is good to enhance the original product

short zephyr
#

We also are slightly limited as to keep it on a computer, we want to keep buttons down, so we really only have WASD and Space bar to work with

upper widget
#

ik enhancing it is difficult but i guess for a free web game, trying to be as good as smash its also good

short zephyr
#

so it's a pretty simple game

upper widget
#

yeah, other attacks appart from meelee would be cool

#

and other controls

short zephyr
#

Nate wants to add projectiles on some characters, but thats a later thing

left junco
upper widget
#

i also have a completely unrelated question, my lil brother really likes cc and ik bwd owns/supports cosmic cow or cc. Now that cosmic cow team will completely change will bwd still own it

#

if it is right to ask that on this channel

short zephyr
#

So yeah, if you want, we can play a couple rounds and you can let me know if theres anything you like/dislike after playing with a person @upper widget?

short zephyr
left junco
#

I'll join in if that's okay ✌️

#

the biggest suggestion I have right now is longer names!

upper widget
#

well i just discovered im terrible at it outside of bot matches

short zephyr
#

haha

#

Yeah its a lot harder against people

#

There also was a bit of network stuff going on, I noticed a epriod where yous topped movingand my timer froze, so mighta been server or mighta just been me, but still pretty early game

upper widget
#

yeah same happened to me

upper widget

basically just wanted to ask bout bwd's position on ai as it has recently been used on some of ur games

short zephyr
upper widget
#

xD

short zephyr
#

(is sarcasm, because if we use it, we probably are okay with it :P)

left junco
short zephyr
#

Do we think it is the FUTURE of game development? no, people will always be better than AI; but for prototyping something quick, getting some placeholder art, etc, its prettty handy

upper widget
#

no i mean if u just used it to save resources or ur belive is that it can compete with real art on ur games

upper widget
#

thats cool

#

i think im more bothered of it being used for thumbnails than real game art

#

i have played kart bros and its a cool game, but if i just saw the game at an browser games page i'll won't probabbly play it

short zephyr
upper widget
#

i was asking more than for hate for getting players

short zephyr
#

Similarly a game at version 0.12 using AI is way more forgiveable than a game launching it's 1.0

Anyways, back to work for me, I'm out!

Just wanted to peek in to let you guys know that ive been tied up in other projects atm but hope to get some more stuff done on ninjas.io in the next couple months. Dagopls has been killing it on the character art + animations and ill have the full batch of new art and animations added once theyre all done. There are a surprise couple of new fighters too, but itll all come in a big update that has:

  • New fighter art + animations
  • Reward tiers (unlock new fighters and rewards as you level up)
  • Bot improvements (more difficulty, more fun)
  • Better level designs + art.

ANY feedback on the current version @ https://ninjas.io is always welcome! 🙂
