It’s been almost two weeks since Ray Ardent: Science Ninja went live on Armor Games<\/a>, and it’s been a pretty awesome couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

First – John Tennant<\/a>, the composer of the Ray Ardent theme song has posted both the original song and a dub remix for free download<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The player reception has been pretty split, which is what I expected. Some people love the gameplay and Ray himself, while others are “WTF?”. <\/p>\n

The game has started to spread across a lot of portals and Ray spent a good chunk of the weekend on Kongregate<\/a>‘s front page and is currently on the front page on Newgrounds<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The fan reception has been great, heck, the fact that there are Ray Ardent fans is great! <\/p>\n

Some great tweets every day from people discovering Science Ninjutsu. For a while last week, there was a ‘Ray Ardent: Science Ninja’ player on Steam, but he’s since changed his name.<\/p>\n

Another fan has created Ray Ardent on City of Heroes:<\/p>\n

If you play CoH, you might see Ray running (with super speed, of course) on the Virtue server, where he’ll be played in character – Science-tastic!<\/p>\n

The crew at DIY Gamer<\/a> also posted an article on Ray and what I’m doing with Ninja Robot Dinosaur<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ray Ardent has also garnered a few reviews:
\nSwitched<\/a> – “hopelessly addicted to its fast-paced gameplay”
\nJay Is Games<\/a> – “a solid platformer with a nice coat of polish that sets it apart from the rest”
\nIndiegames.com <\/a>– Browser Game Pick – “Sounds like a job for science!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
