It's just ninja saga

Sit down, Tell your woes, and Clear others.

A truly wholesome game (if you can call it that) where you listen to chill beats and share your problems while you try to help others, and everyone is doing that.

I mostly played this game with Parsec with my brother, so my hours don't reflect the game time properly. We have finished the game, reached the ending and got our rewards from it. I'll shower in my thoughts regarding the game. I came into the game, not too experienced with the genre (I have a fighting game background), with a mindset that i am playing an old-school beat-em-up

Personal Good Points:
- The game is light, a decent laptop can run really well

- Impressive looking visuals, a lot of work and love is definitely put into it's animations.

- Great gameplay, combos and combat feel great, It almost feels like a fighting game even with the moves in the game. Controls feel solid and smooth, the mechanics can get quite complicated while still keeping it's simplicity. (It can get repetitive, but it does come with the genre).

- I personally love the OST, it's a subjective point though, each to their own. The synth-pop soundtrack sounds great

- The game feels Old-School by keeping the classic feature they have back then (I didn't play the classic river city ransom or double dragon tho), but also a fresh and quite refreshing take on the genre.

-Finishing the game, with a number of deaths and some exploring, will take about 5 hours to complete, finishing it will grant a new game+ or a simple "loitering" mode. There are also multiple areas inaccesible in the beginning and backtracking in encouraged. Your reward for finishing the main game is Riki & Kunio themselves, which means you can complete the game again from the beginning to end with them with each having unique animations and moves to make their own..

-The VA's did really well on the performances, do note that their is no Japanese VA option, this might be a bummer for some. familiar voices here and there, This is also subjective as the writing and action can get cringey for some people, i don't find it an issue, i find it quite charming even.

- The bosses are highlights in my opinion, each boss plays uniquely with their own gimmicks which warrants some preparation of food and multiple tries. They feel fair enough and is very fun to deal with.

Neutral Point:
- The commercial price in the U.S store is $29.99, I paid only a third of that in my country's currency (Indonesian Rupiah)! It's definitely a point to consider. I personally think at $29.99, the price is rather hefty, I might change how i feel as i finish the game.

-The OST, while wonderful, i think doesn't get enough show time in some cases, especially the vocal tracks, as going to other areas might prompt to change the music. The boss tracks in this case, is showcased well.

Bad Points:
- No online, you can't play this game online with a friend, if you want to do that, you'll have to settle with a third party program such as Parsec to do the job. Big shame though, the game would benefit a lot from it. I feel they intend to do so to keep the "Old-School" feel of the classic side-by-side co-op beat-em up.

- One button for most things,
Quick attack button does multiple things, such as goinh to the next section, puching things, grab items, and interacting with NPC's.
This can cause a issues such as wanting to hit someone near the next area, and you get transported, this is less of an issue if you're playing online with a friend, as if you accidentally do so, you can cancel the transition by pressing the special button. I think it'll be a great quality of life improvement if we can implement button mapping for each action, speaking of mapping..

- There is only keyboard mapping,
I have no issues with the control, it feels old-school-ey and honestly i do not mind too much, but other people might and will since you are paying quite the price for the game. If you plan to play the game with anything BUT a keyboard, you cannot change the mapping for your controller. Keyboard players are fine, they can remap the game to their liking. Also i think having macros/shortcuts can improve the QOL of the game.

(Tl;dr)
Some of the games strongest points come from it's presentation, the fluid animations, great performances and soundtracks coupled with the solid gameplay. Weak points come from lack of online and certain quality of life aspects such as button remaps and questionable one button for all.

Summary:
I feel the game feels great to me due to the price i got this, i feel this game isn worth it right now at $29.99, if you intend to keep playing this for quite some time. At the price i'm getting, which is a 1/3 of the original price, it is defintely worth it. Quality of life updates will help to improve the games lifespan and overall enjoyability.
