Samurai Moviestar

- NOTICE FOR THOSE USING THE BROWSER VERSION -

The browser version didn't export the files containing the text data for the buttons, so everything just reads something along the lines of "error." If you wish to play the game with correct labels, please use the downloaded version instead. If you wish to see the buttons without downloading the game, please see the gameplay video on the page (coming soon!)
Also several effects have been removed in the web build, removing some of the "juice" from the game. Because of these two things, it is recommended to use the downloaded version below.

- OTHER THINGS I MESSED UP ON -

Instead of disabling the Language button (never got around to implementing other languages) on the main menu, I accidentally disabled the quit button.... So you have to use task manager to close the game... sorry. (Both builds)
Sometimes if you button mash too hard during the intro stuff, multiple instances of a scene will be shown, causing a lot of issues. If that happens, you just need to reset the game. (Both builds)

Once again, in response Shin’nichi gave Kenichi the power of reincarnation as well. Thus begins the never-ending battle of light and darkness. This is the story of this generation’s battle against Kaokage."
"Upon entering Kaokage's fortress, Kenichi learned of his dastardly plan, Kenichi would star in a movie directed by Kaokage, where his minions will try to kill him! Can Kenichi succeed and become a true samurai moviestar? Or will he fail and die, only one way to find out..."

Overall am I satisfied with this entry?

Nope. I screwed up so many things, it's barely playable, and it's not even that juicy! ...At least I released something I guess, and what's there feels good to play (at least in my opinion). 2/5, not as bad as Ricochet or Ruben Goldberg, but not as good as The Way Back Home, or Wrath of the Sun God.
