The Path to Perfect Penmanship

The Path to Perfect Penmanship is 42nd level in Splatoon 3's story mode, Return of the Mammalians.

Description

To reach the goal, the player must use an Octobrush or Inkbrush to activate all the splat-switches within the time limit. The player can pick up two ink refillers along the path. If time runs out and any splat switches have not been activated, O.R.C.A. will splat the player. The player then respawns at the checkpoint before the timer starts.
