This is my remake of the Legend of Kage that I am making for the Retro Remakes 2004 competition.

It is a ninja game based in ancient times where you take on the role of Shadow who seaks to free his kidnapped princess.

This is also the first game that I have made that has the H Unit seal of approval on it. I hope you approve as well.

Thanks every one at the H Unit who helped make this possible!

Wow, awesome! 13200 is my best score.

Is there a level beyond the tree part?

[darthlupi]

There is much more beyond the tree my friend. Just keep moving left.

If any one needs a hint look in the tree tops for aid.

[YurkShat]

yes, I noticed that when I played (it helps quite a bit) but the problem I have is the fire shooters.

[mysour]

I'm at the invisable guy, he's hard, is there a good stratagy?

[Zarthas]

Darth lupi, your games are great I love it!

[General]

yea, thats definately the best platformer made with gamemaker i love the ninja action and the blood and the sound and all that great game! only thing that got on my nerves was the jumping and trying to climb the vines it was hard beacuse the guy kept falling and didnt go the the next ledge it was hard to get up there, thats were i quit at. but good game!

thats pretty good darth, as always.
several suggestions though:
death comes waay too fast, which makes you want to avoid almost every single guy
the guy at the top of the tower is.-dies before able to speak-

Great game! I suck at it (I think)! My highscore was 8000 points . But this game rocks! I did find a error though , when jumping, and facing right, sometimes my shurikens would go to the left (I checked and my left movement button was being pressed or anything), it happened 2 times I played, for like 10 seconds, then it worked again. You might wanna check that out.

Anyways, great game! 9.5/10(if not for the error, it would be perfect. But the error made me get killed by that pesky fire guy! )

Awesome game(and I never use awesome)!

This game is pretty good. Professionally done. Reminds me of that old console I used to have which had a game like this.

I'm like stuck at the 3rd level boss. The guy that flies. So annoying. Any tips?

Btw, my highest score was 13400 or somewhere around that.

You guys seriously have to try to beat it... the scene after the credits is funny... heehehee.

[lilicedragon]

they can you please give us some tips on how to beat the guy who flies? and shoots fireballs at you?

btw, how many stages are there?

[darthlupi]

In order to beat the flying guy try crossing your fingers.

Seriousy, just let him come to you and cut em. The best strategy is to wait until he is charging his big shot and let him have a bunch of star and sword in the face. Be prepared to dodge his dropping bombs.

Seriously though, Serena is right. You gotta see the end after the end. It makes me giggle. Thanks again Serena!

Another tip for the regular gameplay, as it might not be obvious to some who haven't gotten far.
Remember you don't need to always dodge the shuriken thrown at you. Try using your sword to deflect them back, especially at guys following on the ground. Sometimes jumping out of the way is more risky then just deflecting it away (and while jumping, it's sometimes the only defense)

If you can manage the minor enemies better, you'll be able to take a hit or two from the flame guys. (just wait until you have to go through more than one at once, quite fun ^_~)

[lilicedragon]

BTW, What's the pause button?

[lilicedragon]

I finally beat it. I like that end picture with all the credits.

Also, the very end pic.

Very professional this game.

[AP-Ashley]

yes it is a great game!

[Tarik]

Great, final version!
This used to be (changed after a demo) my fav Demo-Game.

[knight666]

So, finally finished it huh?
You don't see that very often around here, a completed WIP...

Anyway, great game!
I found that the best tactic to NOT get killed is to just run really fast to the left and pray for not too many ninjas.
Also, I only found 1 health pack up in the tops...

Very cool stuff!
