Are developpers all dead ?
This software seems to be stuck into a dead end. Any refund possible ?

Refunds can be difficult
You did buy a software that is knowingly unfinished, and most people probably have owned it longer than two weeks and used it more than two hours.

The least they can do is to give some news.

Early acces contract doesn't mean we want to buy infinished softwares. I buyed it to support its development.

One of the Developers mentioned in another thread just the other day that a large update is due to come out before the end of the year.

it looks pretty dead except for http://steamcommunity.com/app/233680/discussions/0/224446614463504308/
"A ( long awaited ) update will be released before the end of the year."

They probably wouldn't say this if they wanted to just keep milking an unfinished product.
I'm guessing the update is probably in the process of final testing and debugging or at least that's what I'm hoping. What I think is going to happen, the next update will mark the official release of the product and it will go up to $99.95 again, probably just before xmas, this is my prediction. I'm just guessing though.

Early access means you're paying for something that may or may not ever be finished and the developer may or may not deliver the final product the way you want. It's crappy for consumers, but it is what it is.

Just got wacom tablet after using mouse for over a year. Definetly the best out of all the software I have(gimp, krita, artrage). Can't wait for update with layers. But will you add ability to change shortcuts? And ability to import image as a floating layer that we can trace?

Have a nice day!

Thanks.
I add you suggestions in our request list with a +1 ;)

And ability to import image as a floating layer that we can trace?
For that you can import ( Drag & Drop ) an image into a upper layer ;)

I didn't know that thanks!
Also was there any news on multicoloured brushes?
u2bleank  [developer] Nov 21, 2016 @ 12:17am 
what do you mean by multicolored brush ?
Anyway in the next update[forum.bleank.com] it will be possible to create brush with many many colors ;)

u2bleank,

Artist Stephen Cassettari loads his bamboo brush with 2 to 4 colors or more, though, the most base part of the brush is water. It's an advanced brush technique that allows on the fly blending naturally. He also employs the Sumi technique of speed and lighter pressure combined to create a visual appearance of hardness... but this speed technique is normal Sumi(plum blossom).

So... Some of us want to do what he does with a tablet. Maybe with the next update we can.

what software are you talking about?

most painting programs support only one colour unless you are using a clone brush, perhaps you could provide a link to whatever it is you are talking about.
xyzt Nov 21, 2016 @ 3:56pm 
Talking about real life. Hoping it can be emulated.

I know of one software that emulates the speed, but as a whole, real life seems impossible to imitate.

Also, since I'm so used to using OpenCanvas for the feature, does BlackInk have new from clipboard?
