Oniken is one of those retro throwbacks that proudly refuses to respect your time. Enemies spawn aggressively, mistakes are punished instantly and the game rarely explains what it expects from you. The controls are decent, the soundtrack goes hard, and the aesthetic nails the old-school vibe. Unfortunately, the difficulty often feels more annoying than challenging, like it’s daring you to quit. It has its moments, but they’re buried under frustration and trial-and-error deaths. Worth a look if you love tough games, but don’t expect mercy.

JoyMasher's debut feels fresh even so many years later. While the title screen feels like an homage to Snatcher, the game itself knows its main sources, Ninja Gaiden and VIce: Project Doom, fine action games enriched by some of the best 8-bit cutscenes. The parallax is more advanced, and some bosses would seem rather at home on the SNES, but overall there's a really good job to get close to a true NES style as possible. The cutscenes, while really excellent, don't go too far to break the "magic", and the characters look unapologetically '80s Japanese animation and games.

True to the 8-bit inspiration, it also offers a straightforward gameplay of just jumping, sword slashes, some grenades and a "berserk" at the cost of the sword power-ups, a brief moment of invincibility and great attack power. Some concessions are given, once a level is reached you can start from there, and the hero has a quite long health bar, you are allowed to recover from some mistakes but don't make the biggest one, to think this is an easy game because it's not. Even the stupidest enemies require good knowledge of their patterns; it's especially satisfactory to cut them down after avoiding or blocking their attacks with carefully timed jumps and slashes.
Biggest issue is with the checkpoints, which are really few and far between, giving not even some respite for bosses, as if you are killed, or fall into the bottomless pit of one of them, you have to redo more or less long sections before trying again with them. Most capable players who manage to not lose the power-ups, will be rewarded by the ability to convert them into a berserk that makes mincemeat of bosses.

Once finished there is also a fairly long level with another character, which shifts into a Contra style gameplay, interesting also in retrospective given one of JoyMasher's followng productions.

Judging from the statistics of achievements, not many will manage to see the end on their own but, as there are games costing much, much more than Oniken and actually offering less, it's still worth having in my book.

Oniken es básicamente una explosión de nostalgia en forma de juego de acción 8‑bit. Es como si hubieran mezclado lo mejor de Ninja Gaiden, Contra y cualquier clásico difícil de la NES, y lo hubieran lanzado sin filtros. Aquí no hay trucos modernos: saltas, cortas, esquivas y rezas para no caer en una trampa que te manda al inicio del nivel.

Lo que más me gusta es lo directo que es. Zaku, el protagonista, se mueve con esa rigidez típica de los juegos viejos, pero cuando le pillas el ritmo se siente increíblemente preciso. Los niveles están llenos de enemigos, explosiones y secciones que te ponen a prueba sin piedad. Y sí, los jefes son puro espectáculo retro: patrones claros, ataques duros y esa satisfacción brutal cuando por fin los derrotas.

Oniken es de esos juegos que no te tratan con suavidad, pero si creciste con la estética 8‑bit o te gustan los desafíos a la vieja escuela, te engancha rápido. Es un homenaje honesto y sin complicaciones a una época donde la dificultad era parte del encanto

Edit: Depois de ter terminado o jogo, eu tenho que dizer que eu recomendo, mas vc vai precisar de um teclado e paciência, já que:
1. No controle comum, o direcional ou o analógico, se posto na diagonal direita para cima, não registra como se o personagem estivesse andando pra frente, mas sim preparando um ataque de granada. Nisso, Zaku - personagem principal - fica parado, seja no ar ou no chão. Isso já me custou muita vida e tentativas.

2. Se morrer pra um boss, o sistema de vidas te joga pro começo do estágio da fase. Não pro inicio do boss, como Megaman e Ninja Gaiden. E as fases mais dificeis (Missão 4, 5 e 6) têm animações que vc não pode pular.

Tinha tudo pra ser muito bom, mas a dificuldade é muito artificial, os controles não são bons e as fases são desnecessariamente longas (embora o jogo em si seja até curto). As conquistas são de uma dificuldade extremamente artificial, zerei e não tive a menor vontade de fazer as conquistas restantes.
Se fosse realmente um jogo do NES, feito na época, ainda daria para entender. Infelizmente não consigo recomendar. Uma pena.

Oniken is a 2D Action Platformer about Zaku, a ninja who joined the resistance to take back the city from the ravaging army.

You play through 6 tough stages filled with platforming sections and enemies in almost every corner who will try to take you down, solid controls and fast paced gameplay that will require you to keep high attention at all times.

There are secrets in every stage to find out as well as equippable items to help you through the stage, some sections were a bit challenging at first, however once you memorize the enemy patterns and timings it gets easier.

The retro graphics brought back good memories of childhood NES days and I'm a big fan of retro graphics, I don't regret playing this in 2026 and I'm glad I did, this is from the same developers of Odallus: The Dark Call which is another spectacular retro game, loved that one and this one as well.

Great retro OST and soundtracks for each stage and a nostalgia to our childhood days.

The boss fights were awesome, I loved the designs of each one. There are those that will keep your adrenaline pumping as taking damage from them can be really disadvantageous, hence it will keep you on your toes most of the time.

It's a very recommended 2D Action Platformer from the developer "Joymasher" and I hope they work on something in the near future as I enjoyed both of their games "Odallus & Oniken".

Overall Rating 10/10

Una oportunidad desperdiciada:

Gráficos estilo retro que evoca los tiempos de Nes, música y efectos del mismo estilo bastante buena por cierto.

El problema: El control del personaje es muy tosco, respuesta lenta en los movimientos el arma que es una espada es muy lenta de usar entre ataques, la mayoría de enemigos requieren más de un golpe para destruirlos. Te dan una mejora pero al mínimo toque te la quitan con lo cual no sirve para nada.

Las granadas, entiendo que esta basado en consolas antiguas donde los botones eran escasos, pero que tengas que usar la combinación de arriba y ataque para usarlas es para hacérselo mirar, no costaba nada asignarles un botón exclusivo.

Solo he podido llegar al primer jefe (el juego se cierra después devolviéndome a Windows) una especie de gusano robótico, perdí una vida, en la segunda vida lo pase sin daños por que ya había aprendido el patrón de ataque del jefe que es repetitivo hasta aburrirse. (Ataca desde abajo con una carga golpeándose contra una pared, luego desde arriba diagonal derecha lanzando llamas y luego diagonal izquierda lanzando llamas y repite. Dale un espadazo evita daño). Aburridísimo.

No puedo analizar más por que ya cuando supero ese jefe y sigo avanzando el juego se cuelga...

Lots of cheap deaths, larger than needed levels, "memorise the enemy spawns until you finally get through" parts. We've already had our fair share of those in real NES games. But we've already learned that all those used to be nessecities of the time; now they can be seen for what they are: unfun cumbersome relics that are better left alone.

Nostalgia factor alone isn't going to cut it.

[b]Достоинства:[/b]
+ [i]Аутентичность[/i]. Игра заявлена как любовное послание эре 8-битных игр на NES, и в правдивости заявления сомневаться не приходится. Набор звуков и цветов соответствует оригиналу; здесь не встретишь неряшливых хипстерских пиксель-артов с tumblr. Есть, правда, подозрение, что некоторых боссов стандартный картридж на NES бы не вытянул: в них слишком много деталей.

[b]Может не устроить:[/b]
= [i]Графика, музыка, дизайн[/i]. Как уже было сказано, они "идентичны натуральному". Если вам этого мало - эта игра вам не подходит.
= [i]Управление[/i] героем слегка нерасторопно. Великий мастер меча находится где-то посередине между бешеным и вёртким Рю Хаябуза из Ninja Gaiden и деревянным Джо Мусаши из Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi. Несколько раз за игру вы обязательно чертыхнётесь из-за недостатка динамики в самых сложных ситуациях.
= [i]Сюжет[/i], как и положено играм данного жанра, слаб и полон клише. Впрочем, видел я и [i]намного[/i] хуже (я смотрю на тебя, Double Dragon IV). По крайней мере, здесь есть неожиданно красивые и детализированные заставки.
= [i]Сложность[/i], отсеивающая казуалов почти сразу, а более опытных игроков - чуть позже. Эта игра совсем не для слабых. Желание не осилить и бросить настигало меня несколько раз.

[b]Недостатки:[/b]
- [i]Дизайн пятого уровня[/i] - это совсем уж перебор. Мало того, что жутко сложно, ещё и невыносимо длинно. Перепроходить этот марафон - "удовольствие" ещё то.
- Местами наличествует возможность бесконечно фармить очки. Для игры с таблицей рекордов это не комильфо.

Откровенно вдохновлённый классической серией Ninja Gaiden боевик получился... адекватным. Игроки, понимающие, с чем имеют дело, останутся довольны; все остальные в ужасе разбегутся через 15 минут игры. Проблема лишь во вторичности и технических ограничениях: никаких сюрпризов игра не преподнесёт, и никакой глубины не выдаст. Вы получаете то, что видите на скриншотах, и ни пикселем больше. Inessential.

Oniken is a short, but very well polished action platformer game strongly inspired by Fist of the North Star and Ninja Gaiden. With a nice retro pallet and some very solid gameplay, this game is very 80s in its aesthetic experience, as well as its action romp segments, all while managing to skillfully dodge most of the pitfalls games from that time had, namely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ difficulty.

Not much to say about such a succint and well made experience. It is exactly what it is and it doesn't disappoint in what it delivers.

This game has an excellent presentation with the artwork and story cutscenes, even the in-game graphics are really cool for a 8 bit title.
Sadly its the gameplay itself that is woeful and lacks polish. I am no stranger to difficult 8 bit games but something about this gameplay just feels completely off especially with the timing. Its almost as if the the developer that designed the game played it and found it too easy. instead of reworking the levels and enemy placements it feels like they just increased the speed of the game by 2. It's a real pity because there are some interesting things going on creatively. But I would rather just get my 8bit action platformer fix from NES titles like :
Ninja Gaiden
Shatterhand
Batman

Historia do Jogo

Oniken: Unstoppable Edition

Para fãs de jogos que celebram os anos 80-90, Oniken: Unstoppable Edition oferece uma experiência nostálgica e desafiadora. Homenageando os clássicos de ação plataforma da era 8-bit, o game mistura dificuldade intensa com um charme pixelado único.

Lançado em 2012 e aprimorado na versão "Unstoppable Edition", o jogo acompanha Zaku, um ninja cibernético num futuro distópico. A jogabilidade simples e desafiadora exige avançar, saltar, usar espada e granadas contra robôs e mutantes. Inspirado em Ninja Gaiden e Contra, o visual remete aos gráficos do NES, mas com detalhes e fluidez que aprimoram a experiência.

A estética brutalista e sombria combina com uma trilha energética de chiptunes, criando uma atmosfera envolvente. O grande destaque é sua dificuldade extrema: ele não perdoa erros, pedindo memorização, reflexos rápidos e muita persistência para superar os obstáculos e chefes difíceis.

(Um Retro de Qualidade e tambem de Dificuldades)
........................................
Opinião sobre Oniken

Minha nota é 8.5 de 10. O jogo acerta ao entregar uma experiência desafiadora, perfeita para quem gosta de dificultar a jogatina, lembrando os tempos de NES e Mega Drive.

A direção de arte pixelada é autêntica e bem feita, e a trilha sonora energizante reforça o clima nostálgico. A jogabilidade é precisa, com respostas rápidas que exigem reflexos e memorização de padrões. A dificuldade é o grande destaque uma ótima escolha para quem busca intensidade, resistência e a sensação de conquista ao vencer um chefe difícil ou passar de fase.

Para jogadores menos acostumados, o nível de exigência pode ser frustrante, mas quem gosta de uma boa garfada de nostalgia e desafios extremos vai se divertir bastante. Se você curte jogos de plataforma tradicionais, com pegada difícil e estilo clássico, Oniken é uma excelente pedida. Prepare-se para morrer muitas vezes é parte da diversão.

Oniken é um excelente jogo retrô brasileiro feito pela JoyMasher, que desde então lançou outros jogos talvez mais famosos e cultuados como Odallus e Blazing Chrome. Esse é um jogo que eu comprei ao redor da época que saiu e vinha enrolando para jogar desde então, mas que estou muito feliz que finalmente dei uma chance: gostei muito de tudo do jogo, seja sua história exagerada inspirada em anime, Exterminador do Futuro e Berserk, sua linda arte 8-bits ou seus níveis difíceis mas memoráveis. Até o manual do jogo é ótimo, se você abrir ele aqui na Steam vai ver que ele foi feito para emular os manuais da época também, com mais detalhes sobre o mundo do jogo e ilustrações detalhadas dos inimigos, dá pra ver que esse foi claramente um projeto feito com carinho.

Ele não é muito longo, possuindo seis fases principais e uma fase bônus, eu acabei fechando em torno de 20 horas por conta de ter platinado ele - se você não achar a zerada normal tão difícil, esse sim é um desafio. Eu com certeza recomendo Oniken pra quem estiver procurando um jogo retrô que dê pra jogar em intervalos curtos de tempo, ele é excelente - especialmente considerando seu preço baixíssimo pro que ele entrega.

[b]Tags:[/b] Action, Platformer, Retro

[b]Game Review:[/b]
[i]Oniken[/i] is a brutal throwback to the NES era ([i]Ninja Gaiden, Contra[/i]), but unlike its pixelated ancestors, it refuses to hide its rage behind nostalgia. It’s not just difficult—it’s calculated in its cruelty. Every enemy, projectile, and trap is deliberately placed to punish hesitation. This isn’t a game about reflexes alone; it’s about rote memorization, tight execution, and learning the hard way.

The sprite art is detailed and thematically consistent—equal parts [i]Fist of the North Star[/i] and [i]Metal Storm[/i]—and the soundtrack could pass for a lost Famicom chip-tune LP. Mechanically, it’s responsive and snappy, with input latency dialed down to the millisecond. Yet the difficulty curve is less a curve and more a brick wall at stage 3. Bosses shift from manageable to absurd, and Boss Rush mode is downright sadistic. Even seasoned action-platformer players will find themselves on edge.

This isn’t challenge for fun—it’s challenge as gatekeeping. [i]Oniken[/i] demands multiple replays to succeed, and if you’re not willing to study and adapt, it offers no compromise. That will alienate most players, but for masochists and purists, it’ll hit the right nerve.

Runs smoothly on the Steam Deck, though you’ll need steady thumbs and perhaps a stress ball.

[b]Achievement Difficulty:[/b] ★★★★☆
[b]Completion Time:[/b] 7–10 hours

[b]Achievement Review:[/b] The Boss Rush and no-death run are the primary bottlenecks. It’s skill-based, but be ready to replay entire sections repeatedly. A test of patience more than reflex.

Finally, a game that makes you feel so MACHO that you can hit your PR in the gym right after finishing it; the good thing is that, if you blazed through Ninja Gaiden like I did, you'd finish it in two hours lol.

It would seem that the devs were in love with Ninja Gaiden as the whole game is based around the idea that enemies can literally push you into pits of doom. Oniken pits you against the Oniken, as you play mercenary rambo-looking warrior Zaku, who inflitrates the Oniken base in hopes of destroying the main core and saving humanity.

The game is in full glorious 8-bit, with a soundtrack as nostalgic as it is terrifying as it reminded me of the nightmarish Ninja Gaiden that I spent the good part of my childhood raging throughout lol. Now, Zaku gets a bunch of power-ups and he gets a quite useless diagonal grenade if you hit UP+attack; also, some jumps have to be pixel-perfect... and if that doesn't remind you of Ninja Gaiden, I don't know what will.

Oniken gets a [b]9/10[/b]... and that's not fault of its own, it's just 9 because the game terrified me at first, before I realized it's just too dumbed down for this generation; it is made with love for Ninja Gaiden but difficulty-wise, I thought I was playing a Kirby game... but that again is because I'm a Ninja Gaiden veteran myself!! Still, the game was too short and too easy haha! But it's such a power trip that I recommend everybody to play it.

Oniken pays homage to Nintendo games of the past like Ninja Gaiden and Shadow of the Ninja. If
you like tough "Nintendo hard" games you'll enjoy this. The gameplay is pretty simple, jumping
and attacking with your sword hacking and slashing through levels.

Although you will die a lot at first, the game is actually fair, and it shouldn't take too long
to figure out the patterns for each boss. You get a decent amount of health pickups in each
stage and you'll always get a little bit further. When you have the memory muscle to beat the
game it's a lot of fun.

The graphics are nice, and there's a pretty fun story, and the soundtrack is good.

You really can't do worse for this type of retro scroller than to get it for 5 euro.

The Pixel Art is very nicely done, the Gameplay is also pretty fun, the whole game is reminiscent of old school NES Era Platformers such as Ninja Gaiden. However, I believe there is a good reason why games from that time period tend to be considered "outdated". Making the core mechanic of a game purposefully hard to extend playability, to me at least, is not a very viable option as it can cause the gameplay feel frustrating and tedious. Many specific enemy types feel purposefully placed in specific platforms just to get a hit out of you or to halt your progression. The checkpoint system is also not very well implemented, as each Mission has 3 separate stages that you have to go through with a maximum of 3 lives or 4 if you find the secret in the level. As soon as you lose all your lives, the game will allows you to continue but from the beginning of the Mission instead of the stage you were in, which can lead to many frustrating moments as in each mission you have to fight a boss in each stage and can die at any point since almost everything that touches you will deal tons of damage. I would say though the levels are not very long, but having to go through a ton of enemies just to fight the boss again and through certain stages where it feels like they were designed to hit you at any possible moment gets annoying.

If you're into this sort of old school style where its very challenging and requires a lot of memorization of enemy placement and hard platforming in the mix, then get the game. Otherwise look for something else if you don't want to have a frustrating experience. I did Enjoy it for what it was, but this style of game is not for me.

I played one level and I don't think I'll play anymore. I'm still giving it a thumbs up, because I would feel guilty otherwise; this is a case of "it's not you, it's me".

This is a NES game. Not an original NES game, rather a recreation. Two buttons, lives, game overs, enemies can't be hit off-screen, very punishing by design rather than oversight and not in a particularly enjoyable manner. You're required to die and repeat stages until you've mastered them or you got lucky. The first level alone has you escape the mission area after the boss fight, with a scrolling screen, falling rocks and charging enemies. Leave something for the finale, maybe?

But yeah, it seems to be pretty good on the fundamentals of this type of game. It's not for me, but if it's the type of game you like, go ahead.

O jogo é bem legal, traz um ótimo senso de nostalgia.

O design para mim é o maior destaque, é muito bem feito, todos os personagens estética são muito bons.

O problema está no uso de controle que para mim seria primordial para esse tipo de jogo, os controles não funcionam direito, simplesmente não há resposta e você acaba colidindo ou caindo em buracos por isso.

Во вторых вы добавили кулдаун по игроку это вообще ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

[h1]Oniken: El Retorno del Ninja Pixelado[/h1]

[h2]Resumen[/h2]
Imagina que es 1989, tienes una consola de 8 bits y un montón de tiempo libre. ¡Bienvenido a Oniken! Un juego que decide tomar todo lo moderno y bonito de los videojuegos, y arrojarlo por la ventana para traerte de vuelta a la gloriosa era de los píxeles gigantescos y la dificultad despiadada. ¿Te gustan los retos? ¿Te gusta sufrir? Este es tu juego.

[h2]Aspectos importantes e interesantes[/h2]
Este juego es un homenaje descarado a la era de los 8 bits, desde su aspecto visual hasta su estructura de juego. Controlas a un ninja mientras te abres camino a través de niveles infestados de enemigos que parecen sacados de cualquier pesadilla pixelada de los años 80. La dificultad es su sello distintivo: te golpea fuerte y rápido como la vida adulta.

Además, ¡esa música! Prepárate para melodías chiptune que te harán desear haber conservado tu viejo walkman. Y bueno, la historia... Digamos que está ahí, haciendo lo que puede entre tanto espadazo y explosión.

[h2]Aspectos por mejorar[/h2]
Claramente, la nostalgia no puede cubrir todos los huecos. A veces, la dificultad se siente más como una mala broma del desarrollador que como un desafío real. Además, los gráficos, aunque fieles a su estilo retro, podrían ser un poco más variados porque a veces sientes que estás jugando la misma etapa una y otra vez con diferentes colores.

El juego también podría incluir más variedad en las habilidades del personaje o armas para hacer frente al desafío repetitivo. ¡Nada remedia un poco de monotonía como un buen lanzallamas!

[b]KAMGUSTA's mini Review[/b]

A 8-bit arcade / platform game "Contra style". They also added some limitations of 8-bit games, as only 2 buttons, enemies that are not reachable if out of screen, limited color palette and so on... There are also typical "features" of games of the time, as great knokbacks on hits, not pixel-perfect hitboxes, checkpoint system and so on... Recommended only for fans.

I am 32 years old.

My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old.

When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing.

Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side.

With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.

After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like.

Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends.

Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together.

Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that.

Thank you.

全方位仿FC风格的游戏。

4方向操控，没法斜着跳；每关固定3条命，死完重来；还有那FC恶魔城式的碰撞判定，一碰一个大趔趄直接掉坑里挂掉；以及，明明手柄上还有好多空余按钮，但却故意把扔手雷的操作绑定成了上+攻击，要不你干脆把放大招也绑定成A+B呗。

看别人玩感觉难度适中，等自己玩的时候疯狂落命。目前止步第4关，前3关还好，到第4关的时候难度陡增，就是因为不能斜着跳以及那该死的碰撞判定。

Really solid old-school action platformer. Plenty of instant death if you aren't watching your footing, nasty traps, and pure timing-based puzzles; most of the enemies shoot in such a way you'll be hit if you're just spamming attack, so you need to time your attacks with theirs so you slash through them. No enemy respawn on screen scroll, so a little exploring or moving around to avoid attacks is fine. All you get is jump, attack, and "throw grenade", and a single power-up that increases sword range/does double damage. Nice simple formula and the levels are varied and clever.

Also has wild wacky charm of the 90s. The jetbike section in stage 3 is pretty awesome and felt "right".

A little fiddly to play on a DualSense controller. Default interpretation is pretty insane. I had to turn on Steam Input for things to make sense.

This game is insanely difficult but it's playable once you get the gist of it. It's fun and enjoyable but at the same time, it's also frustrating and hair-pulling, especially in boss fights. The charming of this game is it's in retro-style, which makes it nostalgic, like the days back when I was a kid playing NES. So, all and all, this game is good, if you don't mind the trial-and-error repetitive gameplay.

A parte artística é bem feita mas os controles são travados demais e não respondem bem. Isso é crítico quando se tem um level design que exige extrema precisão por parte do jogador.
Muitas vezes você quer dar um pulo e acaba caindo do penhasco porque o jogo não entendeu que vc apertou X.
Soltar uma granada no ar parece um sacrifício, até você conseguir algo que deveria ser um movimento simples, você já foi trucidado pelo inimigo, o que acaba sendo frustrante e difícil pelo motivo errado.

I really wanted to like Oniken. On paper, a game like this should tick all my boxes, but it just didn't happen.

It's an example of a poorly designed platform game. Instead of teasing you like a true "easy to learn, hard to master", "git gud" game of the genre is supposed to, it blatantly cheats on you and expects you to fall for its lack of charm.

The controls are, to put it mildly, absolutely terrible and make all the poorly designed levels a real, and I mean a REAL chore to go through. If it wasn't for the atrocious controls, I'd probably give it more time, died a few (hundred) times more. But why bother? This is just no fun at all.

The game is 99% punishment, 1% fun. Some people apparently need that in their life, I don't.

Yes, it reeks of that NES era nostalgia, but honestly there are tons of better looking (S)NES-aping indie platformers out there which grab the feel better and don't try to hurt your eyes like Oniken does (seriously, whoever thought of using clashing colors in a fast paced platformer needs to get sent to a graphic design class for beginners, pronto).

I don't see why anyone would pick this game over any original NES game, either. There were multiple duds like this on NES, for sure, but there were lots of much better games already back there, games you can get back to, or discover for the very first time. Ghosts n' Goblins, Ninja Gaiden, Mega Man 2, Duck Tales, whatever, take your pick. These games are from around 1988-1990, that's what, 35, 36 years old. Sure, they aged, but I'd argue mostly gracefully. On the other hand we have Oniken made barely a decade ago and it already looks and plays too ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ancient for its own sake.

And there's so many good and great modern retro platform games out there to scratch one's retro itch out there... Play anything by Locomalito, for example Cursed Castilla, which is like Ghosts n' Goblins or Ghouls n' Ghosts, but better. That guy's games are also severely punishing, you keep dying - but then you also keep playing. They have you hooked. And you never get to hide your character under a platform so you could ask yourself, "WTF is that I am doing wrong?", which was my Oniken experience.

[h1]🔰Гейминг с запахом нафталина🔰[/h1]

- [u]Даже не знаю чем меня привлёк данный акт дефекации выложенный в Steam и называющий себя игрой.Скорее всего стилем как и многих ностальгаторов 90 [strike]года рождения[/strike]уровня.И если это так то знайте эта игра не имеет ничего общего с теми играми на которых вы выросли и которые вы любите.Хотите подробностей, да пожалуйста...[/u]

[h2]Об игре:[/h2]
- Игра представляет из себя ретроплатформер старой школы с закосом под игры вроде [i]Ninja Gaiden,Megaman Zero[/i] и другие подобные штуки где нам выпадает возможность орудовать мечом.
- Сюжет игры представляет собой мешанину из различных клише:В недалёком будущем мир погряз в войне и на останках цивилизации возникла злая корпорация подмявшая под себя все сферы человеческой жизни и создавшая армию кибер солдат для защиты себя и людей.Но не все оказались этому рады,возникло сопротивление и мы играем за одного из участников оного Заку,ведь только он сможет СПАСТИ МИИИИИИР.
- Игра состоит из 6 основных уровней и одного бонусного. Основные уровни открываются по мере завершения предыдущих. У вас есть 3 попытки на то чтоб его пройти и одна бонусная секретная.Не укладываетесь в 3-4 попытки начинайте уровень батенька заново.Уровни кстате поделены на зоны.В каждой зоне ваш прогресс сохраняется а жизни восстанавливаются.Это всё что вам нужно знать.
[h1]Мегадуэ Негатив[/h1]
- И вот читая мой обзор складывается впечатление что не всё так плохо,даже больше,всё ровно как мы хардкорщики и хотим.Вот только это умелая ширма за которой вас ждёт ушат говна... а вот и он кстате приятного аппетита.
🔷 - [b]Первое с чем вы столкнётесь зайдя в игру это с дубовым управлением.[/b]Персонаж не отзывчивый,двигается медленно а любое действие сопровождается приличным таким импут лагом(будто бы вы через хреновый эмулятор играете) с которым вам придётся свыкнуться если вы вдруг решили пройти эту игру.
🔷 - [b]Вторым же что вы почувствуете будет приятное чувство дежавю.[/b] Разработчики активно тыбзят геймплейные механики из других популярных проектов эпохи 8 bit вот только реализует они их как умеют.(Спойлер они вообще не умеют)
🔷 - [b]Третьим же будет Баланс а вернее полное его отсутствие.[/b]Игра максимально не честна к игроку иногда она ставит его в такие условия что поза раком в компаниии подвыпивших парней покажется вам предпочтительнее.
🔷 - [b]Четвертым вы узрите баги.[/b]Иногда они полезны когда босс зависает намертво а иногда вы проваливаетесь под уровень и только релог вам поможет.
🔷 - [b]Ну и финальная вещь которая вас ждёт это скука,мертвецкуая скука.[/b]Игра просто невероятна репететативна.Всё медленное поястоянно одни и теже анимации в некоторых зонах сведут вас с ума а катсцены с клишированным сюжетом добьют вас окончательно.(Благо их можно скипать)
[h1]🔰Вывод:🔰[/h1]
- [u][i]Oniken[/i] лишь с виду хардкорный ретроплатформер. По факту же без честный вор вашего времени и денег.Разработчики очевидно не понимали как работают старые видеоигры и просто напихали в свой проект ярлыков чтоб было похоже и судя по некоторым отзывам у них получилось обмануть часть аудитории.Вас же прошу не обманываться и не покупать эту игру ни по скидке ни тем более за полную цену да даже бесплатно в это не играйте,время дороже.[/u]

Utter ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ difficulty and more difficult than any Ninja Gaiden for the NES in my opinion. The visuals are retro style, but not emulating any particular console, it's like a blend between NES/SNES. The length of the penultimate stage made this less enjoyable, not a fan of the final boss gauntlet but it was easier than the gauntlet in Castlevania Bloodlines for example. Recommended buy if you're a fan of IWBTG, Syobon or Super Meatboy.

It's a god game for what it has to offer, or for what it basically is: Another 8 Bit sidescroller homage. The controls are OK, yet it takes time to master jumping from one platform to another. I've always wondered why developers insist on bringing back the limited responsiveness of some NES games back to life. The aesthetics and soundtrack are great, but we really don't need mediocre control systems in the XXI century. Oniken plays like a 1980s cyberpunk Animé story. Characters will definitely take you back to some of the coolest OVAs from the 80s. It's a good game, but it could be better, yet it won't because it's old.

Je suis pourtant pas pourri niveau reflexes et skill en general et j'affectionne particulièrement les jeux typés retro en 2D . J'en ai même fini des assez costauds mais là c'est juste du masochisme. Le jeu ne fait jamais de cadeaux et oe level design consiste à apprendre par coeur les niveaux. L'esthétique est sympa mais y'a trop de phases simplement frustrantes.

On se fait malmener en permanence et certaines manipulations sont trop contre instinctives. Genre lancer une grenade en maintenant haut + X ? Pourquoi pas juste B ou Y tout simplement ? . Bref le jeux est beaucoup trop frustrant pour en tirer un quelconque plaisir. Et encore une fois j'ai fini pas mal de jeux corsés mais là c'est typiquement les jeux de l'époque qui consistait à mettre peu de niveaux mais avec une difficulté des enfers. Le genre de jeu sur lequel je serait resté bloqué comme un c** au deuxième niveau étant petit. Il y a beaucoup trop de jeux mieux que celui ci pour que je m'y attarde. Heureusement que je l'ai choppé à bas prix

Points positifs la direction artistique et la musique. Et c'est tout !
