Next Fest is here, Captain...
Hi Everyone,
Today is a very exciting day with a whole bunch of news!
[h3]🕹️ NEXT FEST DEMO[/h3]
First of all, Steam Next Fest has started, and Inkshade is taking part!
If you haven’t tried the demo yet, now is the time to give it a go. If you’ve already played the demo, there's plenty of reason to return: there are New Challenge Modes in the demo right now. Five total, in fact!
You can activate the challenge modes from the right-most tab in the options menu. They also stack if you really want to make the game impossible.
[h3]🍿 NEW TRAILER[/h3]
I made a special trailer just for Next Fest!

It highlights all the aforementioned challenge modes :)
[h3]🏅 KEY GIVEAWAY CONTEST[/h3]
Last time I mentioned a special contest to win a free game key. Well for the next week, I’m conducting a Look & Find challenge! There are 3 Easter eggs hidden in the demo that nobody has found yet. Roll on over to the big-announcements channel in the official Discord to get at the contest form. This form will show you screenshot hints for these Easter eggs. If you can locate them, fill out the form with details of where exactly they appear in the demo. After Next Fest concludes, I will randomly select a person from those who found all the Easter eggs, and that person will receive a free game key when Inkshade is fully released!
Happy hunting!
(And yes, all these Easter eggs are based on shenanigans from our Discord.)
[h3]🪔 LASTLY…[/h3]
I should also mention that the Inkshade demo won’t be up forever. So now really is the time to give it a whirl, or let your friends know about the demo if you think they might like the game.
Anyway, thanks for tuning in and checking out my game. As always, I will do my best to create something that delights you the same way that games are constantly delighting me.
Until next time, Captain.

- Double Pain Mode: enemies deal double damage to player pieces!
- Unleashed Mode: more enemies and elite enemies will spawn!
- Berserk Mode: all enemies are permanently aggroed! (This one really amps up the required tactics)
- Copycat Mode: your upgrades also apply to enemies!
- One Run to Rule Them All: entirely different run rules. You start with no upgrades and a small amount of scrip, and you have to carefully upgrade as you go. Grinding can’t save you here, Captain.
You can activate the challenge modes from the right-most tab in the options menu. They also stack if you really want to make the game impossible.
