Tink Announced For Xbox LIVE Arcade

Tink Announced For Xbox LIVE Arcade

Turn a bleak world bright again

Written by SgtDigglesworth on 27 July 12 at 04:18

Mimimi Productions has partnered with the publicly funded company Gambitious to further developement the third person adventure game Tink.

Tink is still in its early development stages and will be featured as a working demo at this year's GamesCom in Cologne, Germany. You will take the role of the game's hero 'Tink' and wage a war of colour against the nemesis 'The Creeping Bleakness' who is filling the once colourful world with a bland grey monochrome and creatures who are void of all colour and emotion. 'Tink' is essentially a walking colour palette and he uses his powers to restore life, alter enemy emotions, and generate a vibrant colour scheme back into the world.



Johannes Roth, CEO and Founder at Mimimi Productions, had this to say regarding Tink
With Tink we wanted to create the kind of game that we miss playing in today’s climate of violent combat and bleak post-apocalyptic worlds. Our aim is to give players the same kind of feeling we had when we first played games like Banjo Kazooie, so it made sense to give our hero the power to bring colour back into his world, just as we want to do with gaming. We’re sure there are lots of other gamers out there who want it too!

Dominik Abé, Game Director at Mimimi Productions stated:
At Mimimi Productions, we’re convinced that playtesting is one of the most important parts of modern game development. We’re very excited and of course nervous to be showing a playable version of Tink for the first time at GamesCom, and we can’t wait to have the feedback from the players. But first we have a lot of hard work to do!Not a lot is known regarding when we can expect Tink to be released, however we will be sure to keep you posted as more information surfaces regarding this colourful XBLA game.

I read this as Tinker at first and vomited a tad in my mouth. Then I watched the trailer and was reminded of how much I hate de Blob 2 and will probably never finish it, vomited some more in my mouth. I finally settled down and decided that I liked the trailer and I'm interested in this game.

This here is what you call domination. It's a combination of skill and concentration.

De blob 2 + Rayman + Undergarden + Banjo Kazooie = WIN! I've played all thee games so I doubt I'll be missing out on this one either!

I'm currently in the middle of De Blob 2 and I must say that the levels are far too big and the collectibles are becoming rather painful, even with guides... But I'll get it done eventually. Patience is a virtue as they say...

I enjoyed De Blob 2 and got the full 1000g. This game looks similar so I'd definitely give it a try.
