About INK
✦ AI summary
Navigate invisible levels by painting the terrain with your double jump and deaths, defeating enemies and reaching the goal in this hardcore platformer where every collision reveals your surroundings. INK combines tight controls and fast-paced action with a unique visibility mechanic that turns death into a strategic tool for mapping out your path.
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.
The Deluxe Edition includes a copy of INK plus the Soundtrack + Art DLC all in one place!

Ink is a platforming game with 75 levels. Most of the levels start off with the screen blank except for your character, and any enemies or things you must defeat/avoid. As you move around, you spread ink. This shows what platformers are available. Each time you die, it also spreads ink to show platformer. I like this platformer. It adds a bit of originality (to my knowledge) to the platforming genre. While not easy, it isn't too difficult. You will have levels that take a while to defeat depending on your reflexes and such. But you can beat the game within 3-4 hours, it took me 5 because my reflexes are not the greatest. So yes, I recommend checking this game out. It is a fun yet challenging platformer.1 found this helpful

Works on PortMaster now! Thank you so much for a great game.
Good platformer
The game is somewhat enjoyable to play when you first get into playing, however I didn't get that same feeling of 'I want to play more'. like I do when I play other games. There are only a few levels, and they are fun for the most part and filled with timed jumps and parkour challenges, however there are some real issues that make playing certain levels non-enjoyable. GL!
Dyeing helps you
