Controls[edit]

  • Neutral dpad: Movement
  • Start button: Pauses the game, allows selecting Ninjitsu
  • A button: Uses Ninjitsu spell
  • B button: Attack - throws shuriken at long range, or makes a short-range melee attack
  • C button: Jump. Hold for increased height.

These controls may be remapped in the options menu. In addition, there is a code that enables 6-button mode that separates the three actions from the single attack button.
