Hello there!

I've released a new build for There Will Be Ink, a difficult, tactical shooter for 1-4 players. Play solo or with friends in battles between stick figure armies drawn on a paper notepad, just like you used to draw in class instead of paying attention!

Check out the game in action:

The new build includes some needed polish and accessibility, new music & sound, a new unit (Engineer), a new weapon (shotgun), building damage, airstrikes, and new unlockable abilities.

A devlog with more details can be found here.

Game Features:

  • Fast-paced action gameplay with strategic elements
  • Take control of any friendly unit on the battlefield
  • Unlock new recruit types as you play, including assault infantry, snipers, medics, RPG troops, heavy machine gunners, and engineers
  • Full featured map editor – lay out a battlefield and jump straight into the action
  • Join a battle in progress for 4 player local co-op or vs. modes
  • Navigate dynamic battlefields, wading across rivers, taking cover behind trees, rocks, sandbags, and craters left behind in the chaos
  • Compensate for weather effects like rain, wind, and smoke rising from burning buildings and trees
  • Earn training credits, even when a battle is lost, to assign new abilities to your troops

The latest build can be downloaded here on IndieDB.

Constructive feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
