Inverse Ninjas VS. The Public Domain

I purchased this game back in 2024, loving the spirit of what was on display at the time. The music, the art, the gameplay, it screamed to me that this was made by somebody having a great time. That's why, after supporting the kick-starter campaign, I was saddened seeing that the project had failed to reach it's goal, figuring that meant the show was over. With that being said, I was overjoyed to see the update for episode one while browsing my library, and had a blast running through the content there was. The writing was consistently witty and making me laugh, (Queer doesn't mean what it used to, eh?), the voice actors slipped into the roles without resistance, and everything I liked about the multiplayer campaign was still there. I specifically think the little trivia cards were a wonderful addition. I loved finding and learning about each of the characters, specifically how some came to pass as Public Domain in the first place. Considering the whole thesis is "Man, these are some nifty ideas, let's spotlight them!", I think it ties things together nicely, Can't wait to see where else they pull from going forward. (I think NuSky would be funny to find if you can pull it off) With that being said, I did run into this odd bug near the end of 1-2 or 1-3 that made the game really choppy, and the white pixels between Felix's legs were a little distracting, so there's clearly some ironing that has to be done in places, but over all the game runs fine. All in all, while there's still plenty of work to be done here, I can't help but be excited for this game's future. I love what I'm seeing, and if this review helps spread the word, then so be it! Give it a try folks!

It's a shame to see this project basically cancelled but it was fun giving it my $5.

Though short so far, THIS GAME IS SO PEAK I STG, PLAY IT, PLAY IT NOOOOOWWWW

Love to see a genuinely creative use of all these Public Domain Characters that's also just a really fun Shoot 'Em Up on top of that. There;s so much potential in this concept both with the roster and the gameplay, add Oswald and the game becomes a 10/10.

I've played the game for a good while since 2024. The party game aspect is simple but solid enough—it's quite entertaining, and the fact that they've added more map options from the start is pretty cool. The new story mode looks impressive! I loved the Subspace Emissary vibe, and it's shaping up to be something great with the first chapter available for now. It's cheap, lightweight, and fun, even if it’s not overflowing with content. With time and support, this game could grow and become something truly special. It's worth the price, the time, and even as a single-player experience, it's a fun time-killer in party mode. Don’t be fooled by the public domain theme—it actually makes things more interesting by doing its own thing while remaining appealing.

Just finished playing Episode One: The Call. It was a simple yet very promising start. Choosing Oswald the Lucky Rabbit as the main character instead of the more popular Mickey Mouse was an brilliant idea. I feel that having Oswald as the MC allows for a greater level of freedom in the characterization department as well as giving Oswald a adventure of his own. I found the game a bit rough around the edges with some bugs and slightly off level design , but overall it was a fun ride with some charming characters. This game was clearly made with a lot of passion and I highly encourage you to purchase this game!

I really haven't played this game much, but i have to say it's really good. Only thing I think it actually really should be fixed is how rare healing thingies are. I think they are supposed to be uncommon, but the drop rate is reaaaally low. Or maybe I'm just unlucky. Either or. Anyways, if you're thinking of buying this game, you should. It's only five bucks, and it will be more later. I'm really excited for the future of this game and fully support its developer :)

I really love the designs in this! What a great idea to just make new interesting interpretations of newly public domain characters instead of cheap horror shlock. For example, Mickey looks awesome with his new jacket and I love how Winnie the Pooh looks like a grizzled hunter as if it’s been a few years since the Disney era and he’s lived through some things. I’m excited to see this game develop over the years as it’s got a really fun base so far, it’s a blast with friends! I’d love a couch co-op story mode like what was teased. All-in-All, support this gem!
