Ninja Ninja

You control a lone ninja in a small, enclosed arena. Your opponent, another ninja, is already there waiting. The immediate goal is to survive for as long as you can. You use the arrow keys to move your character around, dodging the other ninja's attacks. Pressing the spacebar lets you throw a shuriken, your only real offensive tool. The mechanics are basic: you move, you dodge, you try to land a hit while avoiding getting hit yourself. The pacing is relentless from the start, and the difficulty feels sharp; a single mistake often ends the round quickly. It feels like a tense, quick duel where every second counts.
