Ninja Gaiden IMPOSSIBLE RUN (Sword Only | No Damage | No Powerups) [2K 60 FPS] (FULL GAME)
I have wanted to make this video since I uploaded Ninja Gaiden Shadow at the beginning of 2022. This challenge truly tested me. I hope you enjoy the video. Feel free to ask any questions about the route I took. I learned a lot about the AI while running this game over and over...and over.
For clarification, save states were used at the start of each act. This video is proof that beating the game with just a sword without taking damage is possible. However, I don't expect it to ever be done legitimately. Bloody Malth took six hours of trying and the demon head took about an hour of trying. I've learned that most of the game can be pretty consistent, there is no real pattern to Malth. I've looked back at footage and can't tell the difference between when he'll hit or miss a ranged attack.
I'm not a fan of speedruns, so, for me, this is the end of a chapter. The final playthrough of a game I grew up with. I understand not everyone wants to watch the cutscenes so I will post the Act and Boss times below.
