Learn Ink (video game dialogue language) in 15 minutes | Ink tutorial

This is a fast paced tutorial on writing dialogue with Ink. Ink is a free, open source scripting language that's used for creating interactive video game dialogue.

Ink also has supported integration with Unity; however, I won't be covering that in this video. If you're interested in using Ink with Unity, let me know in the comments and I'll put together a video on that!

Ink is made by Inkle Studios. Their official website, Inky editor download, and other documentation can be found here - https://www.inklestudios.com/ink/

Thanks for watching! I hope the video was helpful! 🙂
