Movement is the foundation of every ninja run. Here are the essential controls:

| Move Left | ← Arrow / A | Left Button |

| Jump | ↑ Arrow / W / Space | Jump Button |

| Crouch / Slide | ↓ Arrow / S | Down Button |
| Attack | Z / J / X | Attack Button |
| Throw Shuriken | Hold attack + ↑ | Hold attack + up |
Pro tip: The double jump is your most powerful movement tool. Use it to reach high platforms, escape enemy attacks and extend your jumps over wide gaps.
Your ninja is equipped with a katana for close-range attacks and a supply of shurikens for ranged combat. Press the attack button while standing or running to perform a katana slash. Hold the attack button and press up to hurl a shuriken in the direction you're facing.
Most standard enemies take two katana hits to defeat, while shielded guards require you to either attack from behind or use a shuriken to break their guard first. Always keep moving — a stationary ninja is an easy target.
Jumping and attacking at the same time performs a dive kick — a powerful downward strike that stuns enemies and can activate certain pressure plates in the environment.

When you first enter a new level, take a moment to observe the hazard patterns before moving through them. Patience saves lives!
Each world (every 3–4 levels) culminates in a boss encounter. Bosses have significantly more health than regular enemies and attack in distinct phases. The key to every boss fight is the same: observe their attack patterns during the first phase before committing to aggressive offence.
Most bosses follow a cycle: attack → pause → vulnerable window. Strike hard during the vulnerable window, then back off before the next attack cycle begins. Using shurikens during the vulnerable window deals extra pressure when you can't safely close the distance.
If you enter a boss fight low on health, don't despair. Health Orbs sometimes drop when you deal enough damage — keep fighting and they may appear at exactly the right moment.
Once you've mastered the basics, these advanced moves will dramatically improve your performance:
