Solo Developer: Ninjacostar
HATMAN is a solo-driven project built with a focus on high-performance logic and hand-crafted art. As both the coder and artist, I’ve worked to ensure a seamless blend of vivid environmental contrast and precision combat. My goal was to create a technical-led experience where the "storybook" aesthetic and a sinister challenge coexist without compromise.
Thank you. Ninjacostar
