The first time I saw the Ninja Town trailer some time last year, I was excited over its quirky style without really knowing what the hell kind of game it was. By now, if you’ve followed the game at all, you know it’s a tower defense-style game with Ninjas in the place of towers, but not just any kind of ninjas. These ninjas look super cute until they slice or burn you to death. Anyways, some more screenshots and ninja profiles have made their way to my inbox. You can see both after the jump.

As an added ‘bonus’, I’ve included some gameplay footage from a while back and the trailer just to get you up to speed. Still, I was hoping for more information on the extremely pleased looking but hard to find Ninja Dropping. Maybe next time.

As promised, here are some of the profiles for the ninjas in Ninja Town:

Wee Ninja

Although Wee Ninjas (and their mini counterparts Pocket Ninjas) make up the general populous of Ninjatown, that hardly means they lack complexity. In fact, Wee Ninjas train constantly to refine many of the techniques all Ninjas use today, including but not limited to the Stealth Hug, Sneak Snuggle and Fists of Tickle Fury.

Motto: “Honor, stealth & cookies above all else…”

White Ninja

Engineered from birth for missions in remote snowy areas, salt mines and contemporary art galleries, White Ninja is a mysterious character within Ninjatown. Whatever you do though, don’t suggest he’s an albino! Otherwise he might break out his katana and – well, ninjas don’t actually hurt anyone, but he would threaten you severely.

Motto: “Behold my poof skills!”

Anti-Ninja

This ninja isn’t so much against ninjas as he is the anti-thesis of being a ninja. After all, day or night, it’s hard to blend into the background when you’re wearing bright orange robes. Still, even though his ninja master often shakes his head in disgust, Anti-Ninja knows he looks fab since orange is this year’s black.

Motto: “Blend in by standing out…”

Baby Ninja

Wrapped in swaddling ninja robes, this wee Wee Ninja isn’t quite old enough to learn the ropes. So for now, this ninja nugget lays around, observing the daily goings on of Ninjatown, burping, gurgling and whatever other things ninja babies like to do when they’re not sleeping.

Motto: “Goo, gah, dribble…”
