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.

steam的第一款游戏,很早通关了,没想到有新关卡?点进去玩了一下,制作组有毛病吗?本身就很亮,颜色多的情况下,来个追踪弹,追踪弹击打到墙壁溅射墨水就算了,还来屏幕抖动,你难度再高也就算了,mb喜欢伤害玩家眼睛是吧,打了半个小时要瞎掉了,sb游戏
Not a bad little precision platformer! Definitely a fun and colourful aesthetic and vibe. Not for everybody but if you got that itch only high skill ceiling and execution gameplay can scratch this is a good one to try,
As a recently graduated game dev, I was fascinated by INK. It takes what is otherwise a very simple, tried and true gameplay framework, and adds literal rainbow sprinkles to it. This game is a fantastic example of taking a simple idea and seeing how far it can go. I've played INK on my Steam Deck, on my desktop, and my laptop and had a seemless experience through every medium. INK doesn't punish your failure. Sure, you are reset to the beginning of the stage, but your failure has now given you better insight into how to succeed and learn from your mistakes. Quite literally, it's analogous to our human experiences of learning from our failure. Where some games you die and the game mocks you with a 'YOU DIED' or 'CONTINUE??' screen, INK is well aware you know you died. It knows it's puzzles are illusive, and your prize for getting a bit farther that level is a glorious POP of pixelated rainbow showering on the world around you, literally filling it with color. You tried and failed, but now that you have, you're better for it. What was once completely invisible is now... almost beautiful. Every double jump, every death reveals a pixel more of the world moving and breathing around you. Keep trying, keep pushing, keep learning, and eventually you'll have what you need to see the path to what you want. Yeah, it's all squares and rectangles. Yes, it kinda looks like the impossible game and super meat boy got shoved in a paint bucket and "shaken until mixed" But, it's good. I'd say great. It's a cheap little game you can pick up for couch change that's both surprisingly challenging and fun. I appreciate you sharing your gem with us ZackBellGames!
Challenging, but fun precision-platformer with a coloring mechanic that brings something new to the genre. Even average players will enjoy this one. Looks great on OLED.
The game is 10/10 My patience is 3/10
You could have fun hunting for the achievements, but the whole game hinges on a gimmick that's admittedly cool looking, but wears thin gameplay wise, plus the game is incredibly short. It's a neat experience though. 6/10.
I broke my space-bar after playing for only 15 minutes and now I've been relegated to using the arrow keys. going to buy a keyboard made out of vibranium so i can 100% this insanely addictive game. the fact that it is only 13mb big is also seriously impressive and i hope that the creators of the game have been given a free pass into whichever afterlife they choose. The music is also the perfect juxtaposition to the frustrating moments of the game. did you just die 17 times in a row to a colourful fast moving cube? just take a breath and listen. then go ruin that cubes life, take out every bit of hatred you have for your boss or your elementary school bullies on that cube, GET HIM! GET HIM! lol, woops, overshot and died off-screen. next time, im sure you'll get him next time.
cheap, fun, short. levels are managable. not too easy not too hard. fun platformer. with a unique splatter illumination of the layout that makes the level easier the more you die. it was a treat.
i don't know if its positive or negative but its not that difficult until level 40 and then i started raging. prob never gonna play again its a hit or miss for some people for me its a miss. 4.8/10
Amazing game, picked it up years ago for two bucks and worth every penny
