60 of 90 · most liked first10 Second Ninja X released over 8 years ago and I have long since accepted it wouldn't get featured in Games Done Quick, so it is very funny that it now finally has been picked when I worked on a different speedrunning game that released THIS YEAR (thank you GDQ) gamesdonequick.com/schedule/52

Overall Rating - Unplayable Trash ☆☆☆☆☆ First Impressions 10 Second Ninja (SN) is the sort of game I'd have watched on YouTube, figuring it'd be easy enough to beat all the levels, and perhaps challenge myself on the lightning fast trials.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →On 10 Second Ninja X we had an 11th hour issue with the PS4 version where the whiter the image got, the lower the alpha got, making it look dark. We had no time so our solution was to redraw the game over itself, every frame, 4 or 5 times to layer the image and that looked fine so we shipped it.
unlabelledView post →Reminds me of the classic flash games on funny games etc. Would personally pick this game up if it was on sale 80% or higher or in a cheap bundle.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →At first it seems like 10 Second Ninja X is a fun game but it falls short becoming repetitive and boring. You got a character who's obsessed with giving you instructions although they are not necessary. It looks like you have to get rid of that guy otherwise you can't play because the constant instructions just keep getting in the way.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →#VideoGameBacklog "10 Second Ninja X" (PC, 2016) is a fun but hard arcade game where each level has you killing all enemies within ten seconds. You have three shuriken and one sword to help you. There is a lot of retrying. Thanks, @gamedesigndan.bsky.social ! #indiedev #indiegames
unlabelledView post →Did not find the game fun at all. Even with the difficulty it seemed to just repeat itself with dumber obstacles.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game required too much precision timing, which I don’t find particularly fun. I played for about an hour and did as much as I could, but I couldn’t keep going. It stopped being enjoyable and demanded too much focus. I was hoping for something short, fun, and relaxing, not too intense.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Precision and Speed This game demands a lof of precision, YES! No doubt abouth that. But does that make it boring? Absolutely NOT! Calling this game a bad game just because of its difficulty is to see it through a very narrow lens. In fact, the difficulty is part of its identity, IT'S RIGHT THERE IN THE GAME'S OWN TAGS!!! The premise is as simple you're a ninja on a mission to defeat a maniacal pirate who has kidnapped your friends who have been turned into birds. To achive this, you must…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A puzzle game as much as it is a hardcore platformer, 10 Second Ninja X is a remaster of 10 Second Ninja with slightly better graphics and more levels. Complete each one and move on the next by defeating every robot in less than... 10 seconds ! Come on, work with me here, it's in the title. That time limit means the levels will never be too hard to figure out, but also that the time goals will be very tight, hence the "precision platformer" tag. Armed with your sword and 3 shurikens, every…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've almost completed it on PS4 a while ago, gaining a decent momentum with my completion until my save got corrupted. It happened again with Steam version of this game, luckily not that far into the game, but as it turns out it wasn't an isolated incident. Which is one of my main gripes with this game. It requires an incredible amount of planning and focus if you want to pull off three stars rating on each level, so you can imagine how irritating it is to get your save corrupted on two…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fun and fast-paced puzzle platformer with simple mechanics and satisfying level design. The challenge of completing each stage in 10 seconds is engaging and keeps you trying again and again. However, the style and humor feel a bit childish at times, which might not appeal to everyone. Still, it’s a solid game if you enjoy quick reflex challenges.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The leaderboard crashes the game. I had to fix it myself because the devs clearly don't care. Even after that, the game still crashes randomly. The level select screen just disappears after playing for a while, and there are parts where the game gets soft-locked. Summary: Don’t bother with this piece of ♥♥♥♥ game.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →10 Second Ninja X is a surprisingly addictive blend of precision platforming and speedrunning puzzle design that really grows on you the more you play. At first glance it looks simple — clear the level in 10 seconds — but very quickly it turns into a game about planning, timing, and finding the cleanest possible route through chaos. What makes it stand out is how each level feels like a tiny puzzle box. You’re not just reacting fast, you’re thinking ahead: which enemy to take out first, when…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →10 Second Ninja X, developed by Four Circle Interactive and published by Curve Games, is a lightning-fast action platformer that revolves around a deceptively simple premise: every level must be cleared within ten seconds. What initially sounds like a novelty mechanic quickly reveals itself as the core of an intensely focused gameplay experience that blends speedrunning, puzzle solving, and precision platforming into a highly addictive format. Players take control of a silent ninja hero whose…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Simple but difficult platformer. I would glaze it if it didn't crash every minute for no reason.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice game. But there is something wrong with the leaderboards in the 3th stage level 5 I think it was. Everytime I try playing this level my game crashes saying something about the leaderboard that's corrupt.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →10 Second Ninja X is the kind of game that arguably lies at the intersection between fast-paced precision platformer and puzzle game, with the puzzle taking the form of having to plan and figure out how to actually beat a given level within the time limit (and of course some of the later mechanics such as the switches demand a wee bit more thinking) as well as how to further optimise your route to beat it even faster and get a 3 star rating. The central gimmick of every level having a hard…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →And now I know why I recognise the gameplay. It's 3d 10 Second Ninja X, a game I suck at but love and was the first one of the first titles I worked on when I joined Curve so will always have a special place in my heart.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →100% One of the first game i 100%'ed. As the fan of thigh platformers i recommend this game from the bottom of my heart (well maybe not that much) the artstyle is cool too, the movement is very sathysfying and I always like the area form of the game, ranks, and 100% screen. Very fun game. Didn't played the first 10 second ninja before this game tho... :(
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun idea, but it gets repetitive fast. The levels are short and clever at first, but the gameplay doesn't evolve enough to stay interesting. Tight controls can't fully make up for the lack of variety. Good in small doses, but it wore out its welcome for me.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun game. but it crashes
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun little puzzle / jump skill game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →(+) A really fun concept. You only have 10 seconds to figure out how to beat each level, and if you want all three stars, every fraction of a second matters. (+) The instant respawn is fantastic. It's so addictive that you end up retrying the same level over and over until your hand starts to hurt. (+) I also enjoyed the game's sense of humor. (-) I couldn't find a single good reason to go for the final achievement: "Earn 300 Stars & X Rank All Marathon Modes." It feels like grinding for the…

It's a relatively easy fix but I wish this was patched to begin with. If you don't feel like going thru the extra effort, (it took me about 5mins) then I don't recommend buying this game on pc. Get it on console as it really is a good game. ****Please follow "how to fix leaderboard error" guide by Testikel-knuser Karsten ***…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I recommend this game if you are really good at platformers I didn't enjoy it cause I am not but hey maybe you will be better and get more enjoyment than I did. I will say the graphics and sound are really good though
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun platformer with nice challenges, though the default price might be a bit steep. While I don't find the default controls to be ideal, the ability to rebind them is a huge plus (as well as using a controller). The UI could use some changes: the pause menu is cluttered and could be divided into submenus. Most importantly, the "Delete Save" option is dangerously close to the exit button and should be moved elsewhere (even though it asks for confirmation, it's still risky). Adding higher…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game but crashes and lost saves are unacceptable
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Short, rather simple, platformer with few mini-games. Not my cup of tea for the long run (to grind all the levels to max etc.) but overall a nice quick game.

It's got a fun little story, that is clearly a nod to Sonic, that gets kind of emotional by the end. Other than the occasional error that I had to click ignore a few times to bypass, it worked flawlessly on my Rog Ally X with SteamOS. Played at a solid 60fps at 7 watts. If you want something with quick movement based puzzle levels, ala super meat boy, then this…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First side scrolling action packed game I've enjoyed in a long time! The only downside is the game is not optimized for the steam deck (of all games, this should work on it) and comes up with an error, which leads me to remake the game and start all over. That said, it does state it isn't optimized for it. I'll be grabbing a controller for my pc because the game is just that much fun. Definitely worth the dollar on sale and more!
