We Love It's Guide to…

INK

INK is a 2D platformer where you navigate rooms whose terrain starts out invisible. You must reach the exit, defeating any enemies in the room along the way. Moving into terrain reveals it, while a double jump sprays paint across the surroundings. Dying also splashes paint from your last position, and that ink remains after death to help map the room on later attempts. The game contains 75 platforming levels, with hazards, enemy encounters, and boss fights. Jump on enemies to open the exit portal, using precise jumps and the painted outlines to find a path through each room.

Paint your way through invisible-platform rooms, defeat their enemies, and reach the exit across 75 fast-paced levels.

INK is a fast-paced platformer about using colorful paint to uncover your surroundings. Defeat all enemies in the room and reach the goal! However, the terrain is invisible, so you need to discover the terrain by physically bumping into it, by performing a double jump or by, well, dying.

From the Devs

INK is a fast-paced platformer about using colorful paint to uncover your surroundings.

INK has a similar feel to hardcore platformers like Super Meat Boy. The object of each level is to defeat all of the enemies in the room (if any) and reach the goal. However, the terrain is invisible to the player. The player can discover terrain by physically bumping into it, or by performing a double jump. The double jump sprays paint bullets out of the player and increases the player’s awareness of their surroundings. If the player happens to bump into spikes or falls to their death, paint will also shoot out from the player’s last position. The room isn’t wiped clean after death so that the player has an easier time navigating after multiple attempts! This expanded Steam version includes new mechanics, Boss encounters to provide a nice challenge and a change of pace.
