Oof. Character moves a little slow while the ink spawns too fast. The broom is janky, and I can't tell how to sweep it.

Got 1805 after trying about 5 times. Did not understand the controls at first. But I ended up liking it, it's a nice take on the theme and the main character kinda remind me a bit of Kuromi (Sanrio) and anoter game that is coming out for the xbox soon (don't remember the name), but it was cute. Nice work! (^-^)b

@sixbeeps I tweaked the settings a bit.
The ink is setup to drown you after some time.
You can clean the ink by clicking on the broom, pressing [Return] or [Spacebar].

@yukey0 Good to see, that you like it. Thank you for the comment.
The character is inspired by "Bendy and the ink machine".
I've changed the music, so it is not that annoying.

Oh so that was the one, nice to know, thanks :)

I agree with @sixbeeps I could see the game being just a bit faster to add some more adrenalin. But the theme fits nicely. Well done :)

Nice Bendy reference. :P

hey good work keep it up :)

The movement speed is really slow, but I like the simple gameplay, and it's very on-theme. The graphics are cute!

The objective and incentive of the game isn't clear. nice concept tho

I like that cute handwriting art. Because ink does not appear around me, it seems to continue endless. (my score is score is Gold: 268 Ink : 2603) The ink meter stretching effect is unique and cool. nice work!

@shimage2 The spawntime of the ink get Shorter and it is intendet, that you drown after some time.

The cat is cute. :)

Why the cool down bar is growing? I'd expect it to reduce to 0.

@gaoyuan-chen think of it as energy. You must regenerate your energy to take Action.

A cute Bendy and the Ink Machine fangame (?) but the controls are a bit lacking- sometimes it cleans all the ink around him, sometimes it only cleans some. Still, good job on finishing something!

Awesome job dude! My game had similar gameplay with cleaning up stuff! Your art style is awesome as well!

why am i always such a sucker for hand-drawn games?

this is a cool little game! seems like you have some kind of object pooling limit? at the end, i end up surrounded by ink but able to easily keep it far enough away by not moving and mashing space. the pacing is pretty good up to that point, seems like you probably just need a bit more randomness / turnover in ink placement?

overall, good work!

Cute and fun game! I agree with the existing feedback on the balance when the ink starts to spread all over the place, almost not moving allows to continue for quite long with little danger. Overall a nice game, good job!

@jdhollen every red ink puddle has its own list of adjacent ink plots and the random is weighted, so that the new ink is more likely to expand. This should leed to the effect, that it spread and don't stay at one point, but maybe it need a bit more tweaking.

@mikomikisomi Not directly a fangame, but it is a bit inspired. I never played the game, but I like the music on youtube about Bendy and the Ink machine and decided to take his face for the character.

@chocolat-endive I first had the feature that ink doesn't directly spawn onto the player, but this should be disabled in this version. I'll later take a look about the balance.

Nice concept but it could definately use some improvements:
- Ink sometimes spawns quite a bit away from the original piles and instakills you, perhaps a small time between spawning and killing?
- punish player for standing still and spamming space bar (I could stay alive for a very long time without moving)
- The game gets quite laggy when you do stand still for quite a while due to ink piles on the edges stacking onto each other (web version, perhaps do a check to see if the place you want to spawn a new ink isn't already occupied by a few other piles?)

I like it! My advice would be to increase the pace a bit by making the player character move faster and maybe increasing the range/fire rate of the broom.

Cool idea, and cute graphics, not a bad game at all, good job.

This is an interesting concept for a game, but the character moves a little too slow, and the wiping out mechanic just doesn't feel 'right.' Other than that, I do like your concept!

Great game to play and liked the gameplay, art and music is good, nothing wrong with it. The recharge bar looks like its cut weird but other than that I enjoyed playing the game, well done!

@jelbre Thank for your feedback. The killing time is a good idea. I can implement, that ink is slowly forming under the player, this would prevent standing.

@ranjan @artbohr @flashviper I'll tweak the speed, when I've time. Thank you.

@remco-games Thank you. I would like to stretch the middle part, but I couln't find the right settings in Unity.

Hey I got 259 points hehe. I actually think the speed was alright, the ink spawns fast but it doesnt spread out that much so that is a good call. It took me several tries to realize that I should start cleaning corner by corner, and then the game turns out to be very fun. I think what you shoudl definitely add is an indication to how far can I clean the ink when pressing space bar. Also you can add some pace to the game, like the ink spawns faster but the recharge is also faster for example, so that the game doesnt feel repetitive in mid- and late- game. Good job!
