Akaru Hime: The Red Princess is a homebrew Game Boy Color game developed by Light Games for the Bit Bit Jam #3 competition. Its three main developers were Imanol Barriuso, Belinda Barriuso and Sergio Presa.

The game is simple: your character stands in one spot and defends against ninjas coming from the left and right, while jumping or crouching to dodge their throwing stars.

The gameplay may be simple, but it quickly becomes very difficult as more enemies and throwing stars come at you at once.
