About The Lone Ninja

You control a ninja navigating a series of single-screen rooms. Your main goal is to clear each room of all enemies before moving to the next. You move left and right, jump across platforms, and use a mouse to aim and throw your primary weapon, which looks like a spear or dagger. The controls include a dash or teleport move for quick evasion and a bomb you can drop, though I mostly relied on the throwing weapons. The pace is methodical; you often wait for the right moment to attack from a distance, as enemies can overwhelm you quickly if you rush. The game feels precise and a little tense, where a single mistimed jump or missed throw can end your run.
