Although you may find other games that could fulfill INK’s purpose, INK’s music, art direction, and spastic gameplay do enough to create a small world of originality that I’d personally like to see a sequel to.
INK is a fast-paced platformer where you reveal the environment by bumping into it or with paint-shooting double jumps. Dying leaves a paint trail, making it easier to navigate after multiple attempts. The game features 75 levels, challenging bosses, and the ability to jump on enemies to defeat them, providing an intense and exciting gameplay experience.

Critic Reviews
INK Review
INK may be a simple package, but it's a good package. Thanks to a well implemented, simple idea, you will find yourself getting lost in its allure. It's just too bad there's not a lot of reason to go back once you are done. If it had more meat on its bones then perhaps it would come as a higher recommendation. Unfortunately, though, despite being enjoyable, there is just not enough to it overall to help it reach the upper echelons in the current marketplace.

In many ways, INK feels like an exploration game with an artistic side focus. By limiting the player’s sense of sight, the game creates an enjoyable and unique platforming experience.

No kids or squids, but plenty of splatting.
