## What is Little Ninja?

Welcome to Little Ninja, the fast-paced endless runner that tests your reflexes
and rewards your precision.

GAMEPLAY

The ninja runs. Everything else is timing:
- Tap LEFT to jump and clear obstacles
- Tap RIGHT to throw shurikens at enemies and bosses
- Chain the double jump to thread the tight gaps
- Build combos for score multipliers up to x5
- Collect coins to unlock new ninja outfits

SIX ROTATING ENVIRONMENTS

Each one brings its own look and its own obstacles:
- City: neon rooftops and construction crates
- Port: cranes, containers and metal drums
- Industrial: smokestacks and toxic barrels
- Countryside: rolling hills, hay bales and fences
- Forest: stumps and mushrooms
- Beach: seashells and driftwood crates

BOSS FIGHTS

A boss shows up roughly every 500 points. Read its attacks, land your shurikens,
put it down and keep running. The environments loop and the fights keep getting
meaner.

9 UNLOCKABLE OUTFITS

Each one carries a passive perk that changes how you play:
- CLASSIC (free) - the original, no bonus
- SHADOW - shuriken duration +1s
- SAKURA - power-up duration +1s
- ICE - combo window +1s
- GOLDEN - coins x1.5 and a coin magnet that actually pulls
- INFERNO - your double jump spits a fireball
- NEON - throws three shurikens in a spread instead of one
- PHANTOM - one extra life per run
- WHITE NINJA (secret) - +2 HP, triple shuriken, and every bonus stacked

35 MISSIONS ACROSS 5 TIERS

From "score 200 points" to challenges you won't clear on the first try:
- Score targets
- Coin hauls
- Bosses to put down
- Combo chains that shouldn't be possible
- Pure precision

Every mission pays out in coins.

THE DOJO

Sharpen your aim in the training dojo, across four modes:
- CLASSIC - 30 seconds, standard scoring
- TIME ATTACK - 60 seconds, targets back to back
- PRECISION - no timer, three misses and you're done
- SURVIVAL - one miss and it's over

Moving targets, streak multipliers, blue and gold bonus targets, and skull
targets you really shouldn't hit. Best score saved per mode.

POWER-UPS

- Invincibility Aura - temporary protection
- Shuriken Mode - unlimited throws

100% FREE. AD-FREE. NO PAY-TO-WIN.

Little Ninja is completely free, with no ads and no in-app purchases of any kind.
Every outfit, every mode, every mission is there for everyone. You play your way,
not the publisher's way.

PIXEL ART

Hand-crafted pixel art inspired by the classic platformers, built to stay
readable even when things get fast. Every ninja, enemy and backdrop drawn by hand.

CHIPTUNE SOUNDTRACK

Retro chiptune that keeps pace with the action and never lets up.

WHY LITTLE NINJA?

- Tight, responsive controls
- Endless replayability
- No grinding, no paywalls
- Progression based on skill, not on your wallet
- Pixel art that holds up
- A loop you come back to

Perfect for a five-minute run or a long session.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.9 — 2026-07-30

- GOLDEN — the coin magnet is a real magnet now. Coins across most of the screen
  are pulled toward you, faster the closer they get.
- NEON — the +5% speed is gone. It now throws three green shurikens in a spread
  instead of one.
- WHITE NINJA — gets the triple throw as well, in white.

### 1.8 — 2026-07-16

Skin update:

- WHITE NINJA — the Master's outfit now displays correctly. If you'd unlocked
  it and hit a visual glitch, this fixes it.
- GOLDEN — restyled to true gold.
- PHANTOM — now spectral and translucent.
- Fixed enemy ninjas and bosses inheriting the player's outfit.
