Description

The Ink Cannon is a huge turret in Octo Valley. The Ink Cannon mechanic is seen in Octo Valley, appearing in Lair of the Octoballs, Floating Sponge Garden, and Spongy Observatory. It fires missiles which can travel great distances and deal a lot of damage. Over a period of time the missile fired will experience effects from gravity. The missile works the same as a main weapon, as it fires with ZR and has an aiming reticle. The Ink Cannon does not use any of the ink from the player's own Ink Tank. The view will zoom in significantly when using the Ink Cannon. Template:-

Appearences in Octo Valley

  • The first Ink cannon can be found in Lair of the Octoballs. There is a hidden Launchpad in Checkpoint 6 that can be found trying to hide in small crates. Use the Launchpad and it'll take Agent 3 to the last checkpoint. In the last checkpoint, an Ink Cannon can be found. Use the Ink Cannon to paint the big wall, guarded by a Squee-G in the wall, and 2 Octotroopers waiting at the top of the wall.
  • The mission Floating Sponge Garden holds an Ink Cannon at the Final Checkpoint. Using this Ink Cannon will make the sponge section easier, that way Octotroopers and Octocopters won't be in the way.
  • In Checkpoint 3 at Propeller-Lift Fortress, There is an Ink Cannon that has to be used in order to get a platform with a propeller attached to it. When successful, Agent 3 will meet with 6 Octocopters, and an Octobomber that's near the destination the platform was placed at.

Trivia

  • The third Sunken Scrolls first sentence reads,
This Seems to be an Octarian assault vehicle, but it doesn't appear to have an engine.
— Third Sunken Scroll (First Sentence)

and the picture in the scroll shows how the Ink Cannon was constructed.

    • The third scroll is found in Rise of the Octocopters. However, the only strange thing is that if the Third scroll talks about the Ink Cannon, it appears that the ink cannon isn't present in the third mission.
