About KUNAI

About this game

A traumatic event has shaken the balance of the world. Human life has been almost wiped out by the evil A.I. Lemonkus. Robots roam free across the earth. You take control of Tabby, a killer robot infused with the soul of an ancient warrior.Start out with nothing, progress and increase in strength by killing enemy robots to unlock abilities, weapons and kick-ass ninja tricks. Explore a world filled with secrets, hidden passages and mysterious characters. KUNAI is all about movement and agility. Use your ninja mobility to reach places where no normal robot could ever go.

Explore the different pixel-art environments of KUNAI, each with a minimalistic palette, while Tabby makes cute faces. Use a variety of ninja tricks to move around the world and unleash your deadly arsenal of weapons to fight your way through armies of evil machines, rogue androids, and mindless mechs to maximize your badassness.

  • Fast-paced action platforming with a grappling twist.
  • Silky smooth movement mechanics tuned to the pixel.
  • Lots of juicy exploding robots crafted with care (note: screenshake can be turned off at your own leisure).
  • Kunai-driven grappling fun with swinging included to amplify those deadly ninja drops.
  • A wide variety of places to explore, ranging from a fallen city, floating airships to artificial deserts and more!
  • Unique art style, with every area having its own color palette taking you back to the early days of gaming.
  • Combat mechanics and weapons in abundance to slice, dice and fire your robotic foes to pieces.
  • Friendly and not so friendly robots to meet along the way including Earl, Chief and the evil A.I. Lemonkus.
  • Rocking soundtrack with lots of 16-bit references blasting into your ears.
  • You are a NINJA TABLET. ‘Nuff said.

"A positive surprise in the metroidvania genre. Although it’s not overly complex and the game needs some time to find its own tempo. [04/2020, p.64]"

Very fun, albeit not too unique metroidvania. The only bad thing about it is the lack of fast travel, but other than that it's a great time.

I'll keep this short, but so far, I'm pretty alarmed that more people aren't talking about this game. The graphics are really great, with the style working pretty well, and the kunai mechanic also working well. There are a large variety of skills to unlock and the level design is well-designed. The bosses and enemies are a little bland but the rest of the game makes up for it.

KUNAI is proof positive that a fantastic movement system can really make a good Metroidvania into a great one. Plus, the main character sprite is very cute.
