Inked - A Draw to Win game by Inker

Inked is a draw to win type game where you must ration the ink in your meter and draw a platform your character can cross to the finish.

With pretty good graphics, and multiple levels, this new game from Inker Games will be addicting and fun to play.

I'll release the game later today and post the link on this topic. Thanks!  big_smile

Re: Inked - A Draw to Win game by Inker

I've added achievements to the game, but still it is not ready to release. I've uploaded a test though on my account, so feel free to check that out, but it's pretty glitchy and stuff.

Achievements are complete, and so are all of the other aspects of the game. I need 10 more levels then I can release it.  big_smile

Working on boss level, the Ink Breaker. A giant creature with the ability to shoot dark lasers, which can erode against ink.

Here is a screenshot of the boss level. http://i46.tinypic.com/bhnn29.gif.

Would a Scratcher be kind enough to change that into a picture? I'm a new scratcher so I can't post images.

The boss is a large black monster that you must use your ink to defeat, collecting the randomly appearing ink bottles everywhere.

Thank you Nomolos! I really appreciate it!

Game Strategies
The boss' weakness will be on the back of it's head. But to get there, you have to go under it's feet. Every couple seconds, the boss will lift his foot up and stomp back down so hard it will cause the ground to shake. The boss stomps fast enough so you can't get through, but here is a useful strategy:

When the boss lifts up his foot quickly draw a line of ink right below where the foot is hanging, about to stomp. The foot will begin to come down, but will have to stomp through the ink first, causing it to slow down to a fraction of it's normal speed, giving you plenty enough time to slip through.

Re: Inked - A Draw to Win game by Inker

I've decided to change the way you beat the boss. Now you must go behind him, causing him to turn his arm/gun around to try to shoot at you, unfortunately Ink Breaker is so dumb he results in shooting himself. Repeat that three times, he's dead and you win!

Re: Inked - A Draw to Win game by Inker

I'm using Mikeono102's platformer base for the player, so all player movement script credit goes to him.

A glitch occurs whenever you completely coat the player in ink. The player floats through the ink to the top of the drawn ink. I've fixed the glitch by making so when the player gets stuck in ink, he dies and you are forced to restart.

No cheating for you. >:]

Re: Inked - A Draw to Win game by Inker

Boss is nearly done, currently working on more levels and more achievements, maybe a system that let's you see all the achievements you've earned...

If you would like to see a very beta version in the game that had glitches galore, then go here!

Re: Inked - A Draw to Win game by Inker

Boss is now even harder. His bullets follow you and you can't escape them unless you block his bullets with ink.

But you only have ONE ink meter full for the whole boss fight. The boss has three lives, and you constantly using ink the block his bullets. I've beat the boss, but warning, it, is, hard.

Re: Inked - A Draw to Win game by Inker

I liked this a lot, but it was pretty challenging. I think I'd like it more if my ink didn't go away when I died/if I had the option to toggle that on and off but I understand it adds to the challenge to have it disappear :c


I would rather be alone than pretend I feel alright

Thanks a bunch Sellout! (Lol, that sounded...Strange.) The game is supposed to be incredibly hard, but every level is possible, incuding the boss.
