Shadowy swordplay
The Spectrum is doing well for homebrew conversions at the moment. Ninja Gaiden Shadow Warriors takes its cues from the similarly titled Game Boy release from Tecmo, a horizontally scrolling action game where the player controls a sword-wielding ninja as he leaps around and skewers enemies.
From what we’ve seen during a quick play, this does a good job of capturing the gameplay of the original; the main play area is a little small but the graphics are reproduced quite faithfully and with some extra colour. Sneak over to Kikstart.eu/gaiden-shadow-spec.
