Please take a good look at our Blog as that's were most updates will be placed!
Ninja: Rekishi (Ninja:History) will be a historically correct Ninja simulation/stealth game. There will be NO flying grappling hooks or invisibility techniques. The game will come down to pure skill such as misdirection, stealth and technique. The game itself will be based around the player taking control of a Ninja/Shinobi from the feudal period in Japan. As a Ninja the player will have missions to accomplish as given to him by his ruling Daimyo and clan leader.
A lot of historical ninja tools will be available such as: Tanto, Testu-bishi, Ninja-to, Bo, Fukiya and Metsubishi. Just to name a few. For those who have no idea of the few tools I just named. It means you will be able to use everything from Blinding powders, Ninja swords and knives to blowpipes and grappling hooks. All in all the game will be very well rounded when it comes to the tools and weapons available. Though the tools themselves will be historically correct and wont have any "special" abilities and so on.
At the moment the Single player demo is underway, which will let players go through the training stage. Later we plan to release Single Player Story, Co-Op Story and Multiplayer Vs Modes.
If you think you have what it takes to help out with this mod please take a look at the positions available and feel free to send an email to the address. Depending on the position you'd like to help with please link us to examples of your work.

31/Oct - Things have however been a little on the slow side as I have recently been moving from New Zealand to Australia. Now that I've secured new work and should hopefully have living sorted we'll be fully operational again.

A friend of mine said our buildings looked pretty basic aka shitty. The work you seen in those screen captures are place holders until the real models are complete. Obviously they don't have textures or normal maps on them either. But for those of you that didn't know that they are place holders, they will be getting replaced as time and work goes on.. (^__^)
cool animations. Really looking cool.
Hey, thanks man! Things are coming along well. Those animations are still WIP though and may be changed but we'll get him moving about in game then look at changing them. Thanks again for showing your interest!
looking good. Keep it up
Cheers! Thanks for the constant interest (^__^)

indeed, really funny game man, but i think this mod is aiming for something unique.
Thanks! People have been telling me how good Assassins Creed is, I might have to give it a try :P
