Hi everyone. This is Vezelle, the developer of Inkshade. I can’t even begin to describe how amazing it is to see this video. I make games because I want to delight people in the same way that the medium is constantly delighting me. So to see this show up in my feed is special beyond words. Also thank you for playing the demo Aliensrock, I think you’re going to love the full game :)

Interestingly, I have the complete *opposite* take to the (current) top comment. I love that this game stays so close to the aesthetics of Inscryption whilst being so far removed in gameplay. I loved Inscryption, but felt like it didn’t quite levy the aesthetic as well as I expected from the Demo, instead leaning more heavily into the gameplay. If this game sticks to the aesthetics more strongly, then I do feel like it could fill that gap that Inscryption left (although Inscryption is still an amazing game, don’t get me wrong ❤)
@godlyvex554316 күн бұрын
I wish they would've either copied it more by making it the same character as inscryption, or copied it less by changing the character more. Right now it's in the uncomfortable position where they copied the homework but just changed a few words around. I would rather they either 'quote' the original work (to continue the analogy), or write it in their own words. The middle ground feels artistically dishonest.

@@godlyvex5543 You should replay inscryption because that just isn't true, like at all. Leshy is almost immediately made out to be a untrustworthy character with crazed eyes, someone to fear and be weary of. The game master in this game has almost no development into his character other than the scene where he was watching you from the stairs, his expressive eyes and movements, and sometimes, when he isn't explaining game mechanics, in what he says. He gives off a mysterious but playful personality, the only part that matches leshy is that he's a mysterious game master we know little about but even then the kinda mysterious vibe they give is different. Leshy gives off a threatening angle to his mysteriousness while the game master gives off more of a suspicious angle to his, not really threatening but more of a "he acts a bit weird and we don't know if that's just how he is or if he's hiding something" kinds way.

On the one hand, this game skews uncomfortably close to Inscryption. On the other hand, I just want to dive right back in these vibes! As for the actual gameplay, I'm intrigued by how barebones the unit attributes are, compared to the usual bloat from tactics games. Feels like the damage exchanges of Paper Mario and similar. However, I'm also very worried about the meta-progression, as it looks like no strategy or foreknowledge can hold a candle to grinding unit stats.
@theTweak028416 күн бұрын
I can see how with this game the idea of different kinds of damage (magic vs physical) and mobs of enemies could force tactical thinking and an approach, and honestly you can kind of see that in the final fight in this demo. While it would be helpful to be able to one-shot every enemy with each of your pieces, you still need to place them properly and move everything to take advantage. It also seems that your pieces have decent max values for damage so with enough tweaking I am not too worried about the potential for a "grind to max" to trivialize the game.

Inscryption is forever my favorite game to have ever seen played. It hit during a massively bad time in my life and it was the literal only joy I got in my whole day for weeks. Because of that I really grew to love that game more than probably anyone else on the planet. I still play it from time to time. Already I can tell. In 6-12 months when Tyler does the flashback to this play through as the full game releases, I will get a massive dopamine hit. This was my favorite video to watch of 2024. I’m dead serious that series of inscryption was the only dopamine I received for weeks. It brought me that much joy. No one probably understands that truly because it’s just some silly videos and a silly game…. But man during that awful time of literally being at rock bottom it was truly so much light for me. Tyler will never even know he very well may have saved me from suicide.

However I’m very open to a game that takes what inscription did and takes everything up a notch. My one complaint for inscription was the gameplay, which I did not personally find interesting. This looks like it solves that issue for me so far. I’m definitely interested in how this grows. Thanks for showing off the gameplay A-Rock!

My thoughts exactly, although I thought Inscryption's Cabin gameplay was fine. Certainly interesting enough for what it had to do, which is to brutalize you until you break the game either by figuring out the strategies or from the meta-progression. Then the same gameplay sustained a decent post-game roguelike!
@Mat-807116 күн бұрын
This is one of the few times where a game takes heavy inspiration from another but manages to still have its own identity and reasons to play over the original. In this case the similarities are mostly in the style but even that alone is enough for some people to feel like a game is just a copy or worse version so during the video I appreciated every little difference I saw with Inscryption cause it means the devs thought about what to take, what to add, what to modify and what to simply discard cause it wouldn't work for their game. A lot of people would just take all the mechanics of Inscryption indiscriminately and just put a grid and some miniatures instead of cards and call it a day

Theory, A Game Theory: Choose your pieces from each Faction by looking at the opposing Factions you will face. "Archer" factions will not harm your pieces of the same faction. Same with "Acolyte" pieces not harming your own piece from the same. With the "Werewolves" also being the same. Are the "Farmers" another Faction? I'm not sure. That 22:55 fight that you were stuck on, I reckon the way to advance is choosing same Faction pieces and just strolling through the camp all nonchalant. So the way you made that archer kill his own kin at 27:11 seemed especially brutally funny to me. Of course I see that same Faction pieces also attack your own, but I theorize that it only happens when you make your own attack first, they realize your piece is a traitor an attack it back.

I have seen how people have said how "uncomfortable" they are with how close it feels to inscription. I saw one person say that they wished that the developer either copied the homework or wrote a whole new essay. We live in a world where nothing is original, everything is inspired by something. A great example is the 'First-Person Shooter' genre. There are so many but very few people complain about them all looking similar to the original which was Doom. Doom was the first of that genre, just like how inscription was the first of this genre. Inscription isn't unique either, it took inspiration from escape rooms and card games. No one was complaining that it felt to similar to any of those though. This game has the shell of inscription, the atmosphere plus the game inside of an escape room, but it has it's own identity. The Game Master, and the game itself are different. The puzzle's are different, it even has more rooms than inscription did. Let's let the developer work their magic because I think it's gonna be an amazing game.

This looks really cool! The little figurines are quite appealing, and I'm a huge fan of the upgrade system. I appreciate that the inner game (the board game) is framed within the larger game (the first-person game)--it gives a good structure for continuity between deaths. I hope they flesh out both games appropriately, but I will note that I'm wary of further recursion. This is a strong foundation; there is plenty to build upon here without adding further games to frame these two. I'm excited to see/play the final work! Thanks for the introduction, Tyler.

I like how this looks, normally I wouldn't be comfortable playing a creepy or scary game (I very much dislike horror), but this looks like the same acceptable and fun level of creepy from act 1 inscryption that I might be interested in. I will have to wait and see though. As for the gameplay, I have some concerns - namely that the game seems unwinnable without basically "unlocking" the ability to win through upgrading units, and that ranged units feel so much more powerful than melee units - but overall I see a lot of potential in the moving around the building and the way the maps and AI work. I think that I would honestly prefer the unit upgrades to act on more of a run to run basis, but I am aware that that seems to lean further into inscryption territory with the stat boosts to cards. Maybe it is fine for the game to be literally impossible early on, it is supposed to be a scary/unsettling game, where there is a whole house to explore. If you could just ignore all of that and win then it might diminish the impact of the game as a whole... Idk. Will wait to see more before making a decision, but I will keep an eye out for it

@@hem9483 I would rather someone steal game systems than something artistic like the character design. I am fully in support of ripping assets and code and many other things if it's necessary, but I don't think it was warranted here at all. I think ripping an asset directly is actually more honest than stealing a character design and just changing a few little things about it and passing it off as a new character. If this guy was actually leshy I'd be way less upset.

@@godlyvex5543 I replied you in another comment but also want to add more, I think you're looking at this from too much of a single character perspective, try thinking about the function the characters have in both games, narratively and mechanically, it actually makes it super interesting, having a genre of games that have certain conventions like an evil dude that tells the story you're following. to me not liking the structure this game follows is a bit like criticizing fps games for having very similar gun play to each other, I think the structure itself should be done by more games since it's an interesting concept that should be explored

@@F3XT I'm not looking at it from too narrow of a perspective, the entire thing I'm talking about is narrow in nature. I'm specifically saying that this specific thing is what irks me. Specifically. Anyone launching the game who has played inscyption will see the intro and roll their eyes because it's just a rehash. The rest of the game is fine, but I think this specific element does not do enough to distinguish itself from inscryption.
