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.

Cara ,curti muito seu game no trailer, muyfoda
Good to see the game's finally coming out, I realized it's been a year since I played the beta.
Maybe it's because I played the beta quite a bit, but I found the demo to be pretty easy, finished it on my first try with only one death. Will there be harder difficulties on the full version? Maybe even a difficulty where one hit kills you, Contra-style?
Thanks! For now Oniken feature one difficult level, however it's a nice idea for an update!
If you like difficult you shold try the Boss Rush Mode when you finish the full version. I can guarantee that it will be difficult task!
I played the 3 level beta and i think this game's really cool, but even if i like hard games i think that tying the sword power to not being hit is maybe a little too much, isn't it?
Just played the 3 level beta. Just changed mt demo preorder to a preorder. Love 8bit like retro games. Will you implement custom keybindings in the full version.
Hey Joe!
Sadly, we were not able of implementing a custom keybiding.
You can not have "8 bit" graphics with a 256 color pallet. "16 bit" would be pushing it a bit. (Dammit I did not mean to make a pun).
If you want 8 bit, go google Commodore 64, Vic 20, Apple ][, or Atari 800.
Nice looking game though :) reminds me of some early Amiga games.
i'm off to give this game a try. beforehand though, have you tried Vice:Project Doom on the nes? if you havent i've got a feeling you might enjoy it. also, seeing that you're working with MF2, let me suggest Scirra Construct to you, which is similar but i find it to be much better, also, you can include wiiremote support, which for nes-like games is great! between Construct Classic and Construct 2, i presonally prefer classic. btw game looks awesome! you try to get it included in some bundle to make it get some spotlight!
I just know I'll be frustrated to **** knows what once I eventually get to play this, because I haven't touched a nes in 5 years.
Better start padding off the walls already!
So that I don't have to horribly disfigure my fingers or sell some internal organs and buy a gamepad to play. It's not like I'm saying you should have a gun and be able to one-shot all bosses; this won't affect difficulty as much as it does immersion.
