Plot
Set in the fictional city of Japan known as “Shinkakoku” where the company that owns all of it all is “Next Step Industry” a medical company founded by one Kyūseishu Genzaru who to the public is one of the best medical doctors in the country, with his research in medical and biology he was able to work on cures for incurable symptoms like diabetes and asthma in the country. He would then reveal his new work “Next Step Biology” as his best work yet which he marks as a “cure for humanity” as he came to the conclusion that humanity itself was a disease and this was his “cure”. He released this new “cure” in gas-like form across the city and any poor unfortunate soul breathing it in got transformed into disturbing mindless mutations which Genzaru declares as “his children” and will plan to spread this across the globe. But a few of his experimented patients have escaped, they too got infected by his “cure” but were said to be injected instead, therefore only mutating them slightly but maintaining human appearance and behavior but nevertheless have become mutants. They all have a personal grudge against Genzaru for what he did to them and he will pay in blood. Whether their goal is to either get revenge on Genzaru or stop him from unleashing this “cure” to the world...Is to be determined

Gameplay
Bio-Ninja is a 3D style fighting game similar to old 3D Arena fighters such as Rival Schools as it has simple-to-use special moves but the game itself is a gore game which takes inspiration from old 3D-Gore Games such as with obscure games like “Bio F.R.E.A.K.S”. Similar to the mentioned game; there are times when if a player lands a heavy attack onto the opponent at the right time it will sever a body part of the character, leaving them unable to do certain moves that acquire that body part to use it. But the characters will be able to regenerate their missing body parts after a few seconds but if either their head or entire torso is blown off (the latter though is quite rare) will result in an instant death. Bio-Ninja has finishing moves simply called “Bio Kills” which can only be done when the opponent’s health has dropped to zero, as well as Quick Kills that can be used when certain conditions are met. Outside of the combat there is free movement in the levels and there is some levels have high platforms for players to jump on and spam projectiles from high up. Meanwhile some stages have instant death hazards so if the player is near one of these hazards they need to get out quickly before it triggers.
