Dark Deep Demo - Shoot to Move & Reveal

This is a demo for the Dark Deep Game Template. It features the player (an octopus) with a unique control system: you move by shooting ink, and with the same ink, reveal the level boundaries.

This mechanic works by shooting ink balls in the direction the mouse is clicked (or finger pressed), and the player is propelled in the opposite direction by applying force using 2D physics. The same ink ball hits the walls and creates a splatter to reveal them, because the entire level is the same color, so you also need to use the ink to reveal the boundaries.

I've made a complete YouTube tutorial that explains how this mechanic works and more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QumFKurQpA

This demo has one scene set up to immediately test the mechanics. You can get the full version, which is a complete game with many other features, from here: Full Template.
