    Still, Ninja Pizza Girl is a fine little 2D platformer with a personality all of its own, a good sense of humour, and a strong message to share.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game rocks my socks off. It's weird, that's good. It's a fast, hard at times, pretty- side scrolling platformer with many mechanics from the family of existing ninja-ish side scrollers. First thing I liked was the title, Ninja Pizza Girl, which to me says "this game is both weird and cool, come play it." Second was the cover pic of a cartoon average girl doing ninja moves. Awesome. Third (and I REALLY love this part) was the kind of attitude against soul-less corporate commercial giants. It's literally a mom-n-pop pizza shop the main character works for (owned by her father) and I like the positive light it sheds on those kinds of establishments.
    It started easy but got hard at times. Some levels I had to play almost a dozen times to proceed, but that's only because I believe in conquering a game and was not willing to adjust the difficulty slider in the options which is both easy and convenient. It's not a candy coated mario game. Sometimes I literally would fail the level 5 times in a row because I simply could not find the right spot to drop down in, which is an INSANE thing to say about a side scrolling platformer, but given the game's nature I knew it had to be right there somewhere, nothing a little trial and error won't fix.
    Interviews and outfits and game modes to unlock, all great things, and not difficult to unlock either.
    Definitely an indie game, cut-scenes consist of 5-6 pics one after the other and a narrative text, which I could still appreciate.
    Fourth thing I liked was the price, 10 bucks, *shoves money forward* "I demand you take my money."
    Also, Dubstep, cuz sounds,
    but not the annoying kind, it's good and the music builds and activates when you're on a roll.
    I have one single gripe about this game and that is when i jump or fall great distances, the roll mechanic to land by pressing circle seems slightly under-calibrated, could be my controller, but at least 10+ times I pressed the button exactly when it seemed I should and it didn't work, leaving my character to fall hard, which slows her down quite a bit when this game is all about speed.
    If that's a -1 then it's made up for by the +1 of this being an indie mom-n-pop type developer who worked long and hard on this game and on a budget.
    It's awesome, you should buy it right now, and leave a review here cuz the game doesn't have enough yet lol

    This is a fun and cheerful little game. Really good uncomplicated fun. Old school. Really liked it.

    A speed running platformer that feels floaty and unresponsive when playing. Visually unappealing. More visual indicators are needed becauseA speed running platformer that feels floaty and unresponsive when playing. Visually unappealing. More visual indicators are needed because maps were often a frustration in figuring out where to go next to complete the level. Cut scenes and dialog that is embarrassing. Some of the worst sounds came out of my PS4 while playing. I would recommend 10 Second Ninja X over this game. Expand
