Ninpek

About

Ninpek is a high-speed platformer where you take control of a rogue ninja tasked with scaling impossible heights. The game leans into quick reflexes and precise jumps, blending top-down movement with vertical challenges. Levels are tight and packed with hazards, requiring you to adapt to shifting terrain and sudden obstacles. Play alone or team up with a friend in co-op mode to share the chaos. The art style is clean and colorful, with a focus on speed and momentum. The standout here is the co-op feature, which adds a layer of coordination without overcomplicating the core gameplay. Mossmouth’s track record with chaotic co-op (see: Tower of Guns) suggests the local multiplayer here is smooth and rewarding. Released on PC and Switch, it’s a compact but punchy experience that leans into arcade-style simplicity. With a release date set for September 2024, it’s already drawing comparisons to the developer’s earlier work, fast, a little weird, and built for short bursts of competitive fun.
