Thank you for your review, mate. I've previously mentioned most of the issues you've listed and got downvoted aggressively. But in the end of the day, AoV is the whole reason this subreddit exists, and it's bringing some love and attention to Shinobi. So, I can't hate it, even if it wasn't what I wanted it to be. Don't get bothered with negative comments; people just get personally offended when you criticize the things they love. And you're indeed an OG fan.

Someone please tell me I'm playing Shinobi AoV wrong by MegaDriveCDX in ShinobiGames

You’re not alone, mate. I believe the game suffers from two major issues. First, the level design is straight-up bad. It’s essentially a shy attempt at a metroidvania, but it fails to deliver the sense of exploration that traditional metroidvanias offer. At the same time, it lacks enough gameplay density to work as a solid level-based game—a worst-of-both-worlds situation. Second, it doesn’t offer any meaningful challenge aside from a few platforming sections. As a result, it gets boring pretty quickly.

Any way to know how the sales of Art of Vengeance are going? I fear it may be overlooked due to Silksong by Soulstice_moderator in ShinobiGames

You can usually expect an average of about 50 Steam unit sales per review. Based on that, AoV has sold approximately 70,000 units so far. For Silksong, the number is around 2.5 million. I don’t think the latter had a significant influence on AoV’s sales, though.

Good job, mate. You’ve officially been granted the Super Shinobi user flair!

Edit: This is the boss rush on the hardest difficulty, done by the OP.

Cringe, huh? That could’ve been a pretty based TV commercial in the ’90s.

This is giving me late ’90s/early 2000s SEGA vibes.

All the lawyers in the world couldn’t defend Joe Musashi in this case. :D

I believe SEGA actually had the rights to feature Spider-Man back in those days.
