Oniken is a 2D platform action indie game that make use of 8-bit graphic style. My friend Pedro Paiva and I are putting a great effort to guarantee that this game feels really like an 8 bit classic. Everything on Oniken, from the character design to the music, is a tribute to the 8-bit action games from the NES era. So if you like old-school games be prepared for Oniken and remember... Oniken is NES hard!
By purchasing Oniken, you will also get with no extra charging Oniken´s Manual and Original Sound Track composed by Thommaz Kauffmann, Bruno Araujo and N-Freq.
*** Mac and Linux version uses wrappers. They're not a port, however in almost every machine that we tested the game it runs without any problem. However if you had a problem please e-mail us!

Bem Legal só faltou uma demo para Linux !
I love the way this game looks, but it hasn't worked with my XBOX Madcatz controller. Can u guys fix this bug in a patch or whatever. I tried the XBOX and generic control and it didn't work. Also can u make it that my game be downloadable to steam as well? I have greenlighted it in steam already. I love this game the story and feel reminds me of Fist of the Star and hero Kenshiro with some other anime favs.
No x86_64 version :(
Christ is that game hardcore.. A real NES retro kind of a game!
I love this game, only a little compliant: the x360 controller doesn't work with the dpad, only with the analog stick, any chance for adding an option for dpad users too?
Hey Tazi!
I'm currently researching a way to add d-pad for xbox360, for a new game that I've been working on. If it works I'll add this on Oniken too ok?
Sounds cool! :) Thanks for the reply!
To developer: please put in download description info that Linux version uses Wine.
Ok it's done. We didn't know that it would be a problem. Did you had any problem with Oniken in linux?
Hey thanks man! =)
We're not thinking about a sequel for now however we're making another 8 bit platform game! =)
