- Immortal Planet trailer shows off Souls-inspired action - 29 May 2017
I’m quite excited about Immortal Planet . It’s from the same Polish developer as Ronin, a turn-based stealth hack-and-slash, which I played a bit of and really enjoyed (and I wasn’t alone Marsh liked it too ). The new game is a real-time isometric action-RPG that creator Tomasz Wac awek describes as ‘Souls-like’. You’re not going to be able to go in and button mash because the focus is on slow-paced, precise combat, where not getting hit is as important and landing a strike. We now know when it’s coming out some time in July and there’s a new four-minute gameplay video with commentary to enjoy. …
- Ronin creator reveals tiring soulslike Immortal Planet - 6 February 2017
The maker of Ronin, the stylish cyberninja turn-based stab-o-platformer which Marsh dug during early access , has announced his next game. Immortal Planet is also big on patience and careful striking, only this time within a real-time isometric action-RPG. Tomasz Wac awek cites the Souls games as inspirations then takes a tangent of obsessing over stamina, making it a key resource to manage and exploit. The game looks quite pretty and all. Immortal Planet’s due later this for year but, for now, check out the first trailer: …

- Ronin review - 30 June 2015
Need To Know What is it? A 2D stealth combat game with turn-based battles. Inspired by : Gunpoint, Mark of the Ninja, did I mention Gunpoint? Alternatively : Gunpoint (Not reviewed) Copy protection : Steam Price : $12/ 10 Release Date : Out now Publisher : Devolver Digital Developer: Tomasz Wac awek Multiplayer : None Link: Official site Why yes, Ronin does look a lot like Gunpoint. As a 2D action-stealth game set across the buildings of a stylishly futuristic city, the similarities are numerous. You hack computer terminals, use the mouse to plan and execute jumps, and stick to any wall or ceiling you fling yourself against. But Ronin is less derivative than it first appears, thanks largely to the prominence of combat. It looks like a stealth game and sometimes plays like a stealth game, but there are frequent occasions where you're forced into battle. Ronin is first and foremost about…

- Ronin to exit Early Access and release officially later this month - 24 June 2015
When Devolver Digital released Ronin on Early Access last month the publisher promised it would only stay there for a month. It looks like they've kept their word, because the stealth/platformer/turn-based combat hybrid is set to release officially on June 30. Ronin will hit Steam, GOG and "other digital services" with a 25 percent discount, as well as a digital special edition including a digital comic and the game's soundtrack in both MP3 and FLAC formats. Chris Livingston enjoyed his time with the game back in March, noting that the stealth elements work much better than the violent confrontations. If you're not convinced and aren't willing to pay entry for the Early Access version (which is still available), there's a playable demo , too.
- Ronin, the turn-based action-platformer, is now on Steam - 28 May 2015
Devolver Digital has announced that the turn-based stealth-action-platformer Ronin is now on Steam Early Access . Tweaks to difficulty, controls, and other aspects of the game will be made during the final pre-launch phase, which is expected to last about a month, but otherwise it's "99 percent complete" and ready to play. Ronin is an unusual thing. It's an action-platformer, in which you play as a modern-day ninja seeking vengeance against the heads of a powerful corporation, and it's turn-based, meaning that every move you make can (and must) be carefully planned to ensure you don't leave yourself overly exposed in one of the game's plentiful combat bits. A demo was released last month, but now you can leap directly into the (almost) full game. "Ronin is a game of precision and timing so our team has worked with beta testers, other developers, and third-party testing studios to really…

- Ronin demo lets you slice through three levels - 20 April 2015
It used to be ronin were the masterless samurai of Japan's feudal period. Now they're riding motorcycles, sneaking through office blocks, hacking terminals and hanging in mid-air to perform turn-based combat. At least, they are according to Ronin. The 2D stealth action game is out next month, but has a demo available to try right now . It gives you three levels of jumpin', swordin' 'n' grapplin'. Outside of combat, Ronin plays a little bit like Gunpoint (albeit with a grappling hook). Combat is where it truly stands out. You move, and then hang in the air as each guard's laser sight points in your direction. From there, you have to dodge—weaving up and around as you systematically take out your foes. It's very stop and start in-game, but still offers the feeling of fluidity. To download the demo, head over to the game's Steam page and click "Download Demo". Ronin is due out next m…
- Ronin preview: freeform skulking and turn-based stabbing - 24 March 2015
I'm feeling pretty cool about being a ninja today. Leaping from a roof, I pause in midair to fire a grappling hook into the building I've just jumped from, then I swing in the other direction through a window, knock a guard down, and slice him with my katana before he can regain his footing. Springing to the ceiling, I hand-walk across the room and yank two more guards into the darkness with piano wire nooses, leaving them dangling out of sight. Later, I encounter another ninja. An armored ninja. An armored, teleporting ninja. It makes me feel a bit less cool about being a ninja, especially when the much cooler ninja kills me for the tenth time. I've been playing a handful of levels from Ronin , an upcoming 2D platformer with turn-based combat. Comparisons to puzzle-platformer Gunpoint are understandable—Ronin's creator even described it as a Gunpoint ripoff—and there are mo…
