Press release:
Dubai, March 20, 2026 – Eldelic Games today launches Inky Blinky Bob, a surreal action-adventure blending stylised horror, absurdist humour, and chaotic airborne combat.

Available now on Steam for PC for $14.99, the game launches with a limited-time 15% discount making it $12.70 for launch week, inviting players to pilot a weaponised hot air balloon across a hostile archipelago while uncovering the consequences of dangerous biotech experimentation.

Stepping into the role of a detective investigating mysterious signals from a remote island chain controlled by the secretive biotech corporation Quantum Corp, players arrive to find a routine investigation quickly spiralling into something far more dangerous. Following the signals deeper into the archipelago, the case begins revealing failed experiments, mutated inhabitants, and a monstrous airborne entity dominating the skies.

The experience moves between on-foot exploration and aerial traversal, with players navigating storm-swept coastlines, abandoned settlements, and underground laboratories while uncovering the truth behind Quantum Corp’s activities.

At the centre of the journey is the player’s weaponised hot air balloon, serving as both transport and weapon while allowing travel between islands and supporting mounted weapons during airborne combat encounters. Exploring the islands and gathering materials along the way, players repair and upgrade the balloon, strengthening it against increasingly dangerous threats.

Survival relies heavily on scavenging and resource management, with players collecting scrap, gears, metal sheets, and cloth to maintain equipment while carefully managing limited medkits and ammunition. Facing enemies at close range, combat shifts to brutal encounters using weapons such as axes and shotguns.

“At launch, we’re incredibly proud to finally share this strange world with players,” said Miroslav Ilić, CEO of Eldelic Games.

“Inky Blinky Bob was born from a desire to create something eerie, explosive, and deliberately absurd. Balancing dread with dark humour, the game invites players to embrace both the chaos and the comedy.”

The game embraces a stylised and surreal aesthetic, featuring exaggerated character designs, twisted environments, and dramatic skies while blurring the line between psychological horror and dark comedy. The journey builds toward a confrontation with the game’s central threat: Inky Blinky Bob, a grotesque flying octopus-balloon creature looming over the archipelago.
