### 4/5 — Good but not the best

*2023-08-01*

I played the scratch version and this is much better. But I feel like you could include the entire series into one game. Now, the fact that it’s only one game and not all of them isn’t why I’m removing a star but because it’s just a solid game but nothing that makes it go beyond that.

Pretty good, would recommend, little too short to be sweet but it’s great.

### 5/5 — Ninja

*2023-04-23, version 1.2.0*

Add the levels from all the Ninja series. Also I was playing and then out of no where was an avocados from Mexico ad

### 5/5 — Great game, but definitely could use more

*2023-04-07, version 1.2.0*

I love this game, but I think all the scratch games should be on here, I love the boss battles in the scratch games 3 and 5 it could use all the other games, and maybe a bonus boss battle, but for now a great game!

### 5/5 — Great Challenge!

*2023-02-01, version 1.2.0*

I love this! It would be fun if you added the hacked version or perhaps a timer to speed run. Amazing as it is though!

### 5/5 — epic game

*2023-01-24, version 1.2.0*

Truly amazing to see it on the App Store.

### 5/5 — Lots of room for improvment

*2023-01-19, version 1.2.0*

I think this is a great game but… it’s controls are a bit hard to use and there is so much more to be added.but in the end it’s a great game😊

### 5/5 — Amazin

*2022-12-21, version 1.1.5*

Great game possibly one of the first games I played as @scratchingpost97

### 5/5 — Just a thing

*2022-12-15, version 1.1.5*

This is a great game. I've even played the scratch version. But can you just have a jump button instead of moving the joystick upwards?

### 5/5 — 10/10 would play sequel

*2022-12-02, version 1.1.4*

Mr. Wam, this is great :D
I’m looking forward to seeing more levels!

### 4/5 — bugs

*2022-11-29, version 1.1.1*

great, but some bug. The physics is so wonky and you can get stuck to walls underwater. Also if you move, die, and an ad shows up, you are stuck going that direction until you move again. Maybe try fixing it.

### 2/5 — need control improvements

*2024-10-17, version 1.2.0*

it is fun but i think it too far to put ads on a scratch game also why can’t the joy stick be on the left ☹️ i hope it get updated

### 2/5 — Improved but controls suffer

*2022-11-29, version 1.1.1*

I have played both versions of this game and the mobile version has much better physics and engine. However the controls have suffered very heavily with the porting to mobile and is much worse than on scratch. The game is attempting to jump from a small web game to the App Store which requires much more than what has been done here. Overall a somewhat well made port but limited by controls and scope changes.

### 3/5 — Wish there was more

*2024-07-13, version 1.2.0*

It’s pretty good and a relatively faithful recreation of the original Scratch games, but I wish there was more in the game. This game can be 100% completed in like 10 minutes. I wish maybe levels from The Ninja 2, 3, 4 and 5 on Scratch were included, or maybe at least some bonus challenges. It’s a bit dissapointing. Also, I wish there was audio in the game. It might just be my device, but I couldn’t hear anything in the game. Overall, it’s alright but can definitely be improved upon.

### 3/5 — Controls could be better

*2023-05-28, version 1.2.0*

This version of the game had many improvements like lag and quality, but it has one big downside. The controls. I was playing this game and the controls made it so hard to finish a level when it shouldn’t be that hard. Porting this to the App Store gives the opportunity for a multi-touch game, and I think you could use that to your advantage by adding a dedicated jump button.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2022-12-16, version 1.1.5*

The game is good, but it has buggy controls considering it’s a mobile platformer

### 4/5 — We all came here from scratch, didn’t we

*2024-06-09, version 1.2.0*

It’s a good game. There are some times when you get stuck in the floor, but it’s a good challenge!

### 4/5 — Okay

*2024-06-05, version 1.2.0*

Okay but update it more

### 4/5 — It’s ok

*2024-03-24, version 1.2.0*

The scratch one is better

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2023-10-17, version 1.2.0*

The scratch games are amazing but will only put the first one in here so it took me under 5 minutes to beat the game and unlock all the skins. If you put the rest of the games in here I’ll give it five stars.

### 4/5 — I 100% the game and here’s my opinion

*2023-08-04, version 1.2.0*

So the game is pretty good. The addition content added from the scratch version makes it worth playing. You could of probably made a boss fight but that’s asking for too much.

Now, the game is at a medium difficulty level so you may die but not often. Not saying that this is bad, but it makes the Thumbnail skin feel earned and it’s a perfect mix of an almost impossible skin to get and a free skin to get. Retrying the levels to get the skin wasn’t worth it though…

Normally a skin is fine but that’s a reward for 100%, meaning there isn’t a big incentive to use the skin. If the skin unlocked a boss that would be cool, but it doesn’t. Still cool the skin is in the game though.

The game is a 4 stars because it’s not 3 star material and I don’t think any 2d platformer from scratch could be 5 stars with how limited the program is.

### 5/5 — My Favorite Game

*2025-12-21, version 1.2.0*

This is my favorite game its sad there is no more levels and skins.They should add more levels and skins since i beat the whole game in one day(including the skins)

### 5/5 — Decent game with great potential

*2025-03-23, version 1.2.0*

I have played all of the scratch games and this game is a great adaptation of them. It would be awesome if you added the ninja level creator and some of the other ninja chapters to it as well though.

### 5/5 — Came here from rumble.com

*2024-09-28, version 1.2.0*

Have nearly beaten every level, however level 8 is really difficult and once you get one target the other target is nearly impossible to get for me. I suggest you add another shuriken to the level. But it is still a great game.

I am still saying an account on Rumble called “Will Wam” advertised this game. Is this you? I reported the video.

Amazing game :) - LovePeaceA9

### 5/5 — Good Game😃

*2024-06-26, version 1.2.0*

Ok, hi Will_Wam!
I’m a very big fan of your games on Scratch, and good job publishing a game on the App Store! However, although a great game, the controls are hard, and sometimes it is boring. It is a great game, though!

### 5/5 — eg22884 (scratch)

*2024-05-09, version 1.2.0*

the best game I’ve ever played

### 5/5 — I love this game.

*2024-01-02, version 1.2.0*

I am Jason-Grace1598 from scratch and I love this game but it definitely needs more levels and I think you should add all the ninja games you have made.

### 5/5 — Just supporting

*2023-08-29*

Will is great just gotta support my man

### 5/5 — Great!

*2023-07-01, version 1.2.0*

Great port of the scratch original! Controls need some work though.

### 5/5 — Scratch

*2023-06-16, version 1.2.0*

I follow you on scratch

### 5/5 — 👍👍👍

*2023-05-19, version 1.2.0*
