Ink Armada

A naval artillery duel drawn entirely in ballpoint pen on lined notebook paper. There are no image assets anywhere in it. Every ship, wave and doodle is drawn in code by a simulated pen.

Controls

Aim with the mouse, hold to charge, release to fire. Sail with A and D, and do not touch enemy hulls: colliding sinks you. Arrow keys, Space and R also work, and so does touch. Press M for sound; it starts muted.

How it works

The rendering technique is written up in the post about faking a ballpoint pen in Canvas 2D.
