Excellent job! Pretty nice game.

dawd "The Don"...that has a nice ring to it, nice release keep up the good work man

This is looking really nice mate :) Theres a few things though...

1. The text on the intro is a bit hard to read and would be better if it exited on a button press
2. You have to press the Start button a ton of times to get it to work!
3. The menu is very unresponsive and would be better if Start started the game (as it doesnt say press X!)
4. The tutorial glitched on me a load of times (kept going between 3 and the last one!) - Maybe you should have "Press Triangle To Skip" or something too.
5. My character just stopped when I met the bad guys no matter how much joypad wiggling and button bashing I did!) plus they kept disappearing!

Oddly 2-3 worked much better the second time I played it :confused:

I know its only a beta and I hope you dont take my comments too harshly as Im only trying to help ;)

This is looking like a great game (very well presented :D ) just got a few bugs to iron out :o

1) Will be fixed in next release
2) Will be fixed in next release
3) The menu worked fine for me
4) Will be fixed in next release
5) The last part of the game is like an rpg fight...you have to press square to attack when it tells you to, you can't move around on that part ;)

Thanks for finding these glitches and posting about them, I'll get them fixed ASAP and release shinobi v0.2b soon :)

post this in pspupdates :D

Looking nice man. One/two glitches i found was if you stand still and jump the animation stays the same(just standing) and if you land from a jump and dont push any buttons the the animation stays the same.
Other than that its coming on well.

Yeah I noticed these glitches as well but I couldn't fix them, hopefully I'll get them fixed for the next release. Thanks for telling me :)

I had the same problem in my Bruce Lua game.
I think you can just have it so if player.jumpstate == "ground" then the player animation = the animation for him on the floor. But i'm not too sure.

-----Edit------
And like wise for when he jumps, so if jumpstate > ground then show jumping animation.

Thanks for the info...I'll try it later on and get back to you :)
