About this game

Enter the Blade. Defend the Realm. Become a Legend.

Shonen Blade is a fast-paced, retro-style 2D pixel art roguelite adventure where you take on the role of Shonenki, a fearless warrior fighting to protect the peaceful kingdom of Shonini from the horrors that rise from its cursed catacombs.

Wield your blade and pierce the shadows as you battle hordes of twisted enemies, powerful mini-bosses, and monstrous final bosses in each world. Journey through dangerous lands, each ruled by a powerful overlord, until you reach the ultimate evil – the Great Dragon, the source of all darkness.

🗡️ Roguelite Dungeon Crawling Action
Every run is unique. Explore procedurally designed levels, gather gear, defeat enemies, and choose powerful passive skills to upgrade your abilities and survive the ever-escalating threat.

🛡️ Gear Up and Get Stronger
Collect and equip dozens of armor pieces, swords, accessories, and more. Mix and match to suit your combat style and face every enemy with confidence.

🔥 Dual Combat Mechanics
Switch between close-range sword attacks and long-range throwing knives. Perfect your timing, dodge incoming strikes, and clear enemies with deadly efficiency.

⚔️ Unlock Portals and Conquer Worlds
Progress through increasingly dangerous worlds by opening magical portals – each one a step closer to conquering the corruption. Defeat world bosses to claim victory and restore balance to the realm.

🏆 Heroic Mode & Infinite Dungeon
Craving a real challenge? Brave Heroic Mode for increased difficulty and hardcore gameplay. Or test your limits in the Infinite Dungeon, an endless combat arena where only the strongest climb the leaderboards.

🌍 Pixel Art with Soul
Enjoy beautifully crafted 2D environments and nostalgic pixel-art animations. Each level and character is full of charm, detail, and style.

📊 Track Your Progress and Compete
Climb the leaderboards, set new records, and become a legend known across the realm.

Its the same game as "Another RPG" except they changed the main character and it has a constant attack now, instead of having to press B to attack, it automatically attacks when you get close to the enemy... Plus they added a few more certain upgrades you gradually get... I like the game... But I liked it better on the original version, I don't like the automatic attack tbh... It takes the fun out of the game... 💯

Thank you so much for your review and for taking the time to detail what you liked (and didn’t) about the game! :) I also wanted to let you know that we’re actively working on improving the game. While it serves as a foundation for another project, we’re developing new levels, mechanics, bosses, and even a battle royale mode for active players.

Castlevania-like level designs that are emersive with secrets and detail. Pixilated artwork, and the character changes armor every time you buy something new. Easy to pick up and play, regardless if you got 5 minutes or 5 hours. Strong emphasis on dodging attacks and platforming brings so much playability to each level. The game controls are flawless. It brings back the classic nostalgia that retro games make, and it keeps getting better with each update. Boss battles are challenging. Very fun

The concept is great but didn't expect it to be too simple....hero auto attacks while you just jump and dodge. Rogue like by way of choosing perks after each lvl but if you quit the perks start at none. Being able to watch ads to no end to gain coins to upgrade equipment made it too easy .
