663 Games invites everyone to watch the first ever developer walkthrough for Realm of Ink. This announcement follows the successful release of the playable demo on Steam.
The walkthrough runs for 13 minutes with Leap Studio and Maple Leaf Studio taking everyone on a journey. In particular, the studio gives a preview of the Scarlet Sword, which is one of the weapon schools in the game, using the Twin Domain strategy. A fast and versatile weapon, the Scarlet Sword can release both light and heavy attacks. The heavy attack is a round slash around the character which deals a huge amount of damage to enemies. Meanwhile, the light attack features a triple strike to the front and deal low damage. The heavy attack can deal extra damage by charging it up and the charge-up speed can be increased if a light attack is performed first.
In the developer video, the path taken revolves on two selected Ink Gems. The first is the Venom Ink which can lay down a magical circle and deal DOT while also applying the "Poison" debuff to enemies. The second is Quake Ink which lays down a magical circle and deals DOT while applying shields to the character. What this shows is that the effects of magical circles are enhanced based on the perks selected.
