- INK INSIDE: S+ NOW AVAILABLE! - 27 March 2026
THE INK INSIDE: S+ UPDATE INCLUDES:NEW S+ ModeWhen creating a new save file, players will have the option for it to "Start S+" This makes it so this save is in "S+" mode where ANY hit will take down the player instantly. (You can still "help your teammate up" after they take a single hit though). So keeping BOTH players up and alive throughout combat becomes an INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT challenge the further into the game you go. SURVIVING COMBAT in S+ will TEST your knowledge of ALL the skills you learn in the game. As you'll need to use each Ability / JOB / Special TOGETHER with GOOD GEAR in order to complete this mode. (It is NEARLY impossible to complete this mode unless you know how to receive buffs from your gear...so we added a NEW GUIDE on Steam for how to do just that! :D).If you DO finish S+, there's a contest in our Discord server to win IRL loot!!!(Completing S+ also unlocks the…
- MANY Accessibility Options NOW LIVE! - 23 March 2026
Please visit the NEW GUIDE available on our Steam page for the FULL LIST of Accessibility Options and settings. Highlights include:The game's color space design, including the main characters, is optimized for a black-and-white color space (luminance contrast). This means all key visuals for the characters and game use colors that avoid conflicts for any form of color blindness. So to that end they do not have a colorblind option because the game's color design already accommodates players who may need it. Additionally, all in-game items feature shape and color indicators in their top left corner so players can recognize them from a distance based on the equipment slot they fill. The slots themselves are designed with the same shapes, and appear at the top of the players inventory; - Circle (Red) for cores, Triangle (Yellow) for agility items, Square (Green) for tech items, Diamond (Pur…

- The Alighieri Circle: Dante’s Bloodline – Demo Available Now - 19 February 2026
The world knows the Divine Comedy as a masterpiece of literature. For your family, it is a living prison. Today, we invite you to step into the shoes of Gabriele Alighieri and confront a legacy that returns every thirty-three years. The barrier between our world and Hell is fading, and the only way to protect your bloodline is to return to the place you tried to forget. The Alighieri Circle: Dante’s Bloodline is a first person psychological thriller that reimagines Dante’s work through a modern lens. This is not an action game. It is a narrative driven experience where tension is built through atmosphere, exploration, and the heavy weight of the unspoken. You will navigate two converging realities: the Villa, a silent place heavy with denial, and the Dive, a distorted reflection of a fragmented mind. There is no combat and no traditional power fantasy. Instead, the journey focuses on ob…

Ink Inside was designed with the SteamDeck in mind! Great on controller, and just as great on SteamDeck - Ink Inside works on SteamDeck right from install, with no additional configuration required. Buttons are displayed as native Xbox, and controller remapping is also supported. There are many additional quality setting available that can also be adjusted if the game encounters any slowdown, but it hasn't been an issue in testing yet.

We're hoping this version of the demo addresses that issue for the most of you, but it may not fix it for everyone! We're prioritizing this bug and working on a full fix for it asap! While playing the DEMO, IF you encounter…
