Descend the tower

Dead ink is a top-down soulslike set inside a single hand-crafted vertical world. You awaken at the summit of a hostile brutalist tower. To escape, you must find a way down. Explore a dense, nonlinear structure of shortcuts, locked routes, hidden drops and dangerous ledges. The tower is not a backdrop: understanding its shape is at the heart of the game.

Print your next life

Enemies yield ink. Printers turn it into your body, weapons and equipment, and form a network of checkpoints throughout the tower. Spend heavily on a powerful loadout, preserve your ink for future attempts, or risk transporting it to another printer.

Make the ink last

Every death has a material cost. Die too often or spend too freely and your ink supply can run dry, ending the run.

Deliberate melee combat with blocking, parrying, rolling, and plunge attacks.

A nonlinear entirely hand-crafted tower.

Multiple weapons, enemies, and bosses.

Hidden routes, shortcuts, and blueprint upgrades.

Full controller support.

In the year 2207 the quantum state of your brain was encoded in a stream of photons and beamed into the cosmos. A pioneer of a glorious new age of light-speed travel, destined for fame and glory... at least that was the plan.
