SOUL Types

Missing Image*This page is missing an image.*
There are a total of 17 different SOUL types in the Ink!sans Fight as of version 0.39. Each SOUL has a unique mechanic. Some SOULs appear in multiple attacks, and others are exclusive to one attack only.

SOULs can be roughly categorized into two groups: **colored SOULs**, which appear multiple times, and **miscellaneous SOULs**, which appear in one attack only.

## Colored SOUL Types

### Red

The **red SOUL** is the most commonly used SOUL type in the Ink!sans Fight. The red SOUL has the ability to move in any direction across the bullet board. Its movement is not affected by any external features except for the bullet board walls. Additionally, holding down the X key as the red SOUL slows it down. Holding several keys at once as the red SOUL will "lock" it into place and keep it still while making it immune to orange attacks. Its first appearance is during Classic Sans's attack in Phase 1, and it appears many other times in the entire game.

### Orange

There are two different types of **orange SOULs** in the Ink!sans fight. They look exactly alike, and both cannot stop moving.

#### Type #1

The **first type** of orange SOUL cannot stop once it starts moving. It cannot go diagonally either. Its first appearence is during Only Funny Sans's attack in Phase 2. It also appears two other times in the entire game; once during one of the Orange Dye Bottle's attacks in Phase 3, and once during Over-Save Tale Mettaton NEO's attack in Phase 3 EX.

#### Type #2

The **second type** of orange SOUL cannot stop jumping. It is essentially a blue SOUL that constantly jumps. With this SOUL, the player has no control over the up/down keys and can only control left/right diagonal movement (the jumps turn side movement into diagonals). This SOUL first appears in two attacks of the Orange Dye Bottle in Phase 3. It does not occur anywhere else.

### Yellow

The **yellow SOUL** is essentially the same as the red SOUL, however, the sprite for it is reversed (the "tail" of the sprite points up). It shoots a yellow bullet when the player hits Z or the enter key. The yellow SOUL first appears during Science Sans's attack in Phase 1 and occurs several other times in the game, especially during the attacks of the Yellow Dye Bottle in Phase 3.

### Green

The **green SOUL** cannot move. It has a fixed position on the bullet board. However, it has a "shield" that it can use to parry projectiles. This "shield" is controlled by the arrow keys and instantly flips in the direction of the arrow key that was clicked. The green SOUL first appears in one of the attacks of the Green Dye Bottle in Phase 3. It appears once more in Ultimatale UndyneEX's attack in Phase 3 EX.

### Cyan

There are two types of **cyan SOULs** in the Ink!sans Fight. They look nearly identical, however, the second type has a small "ring" around it.

#### Type #1

The **first type** of cyan SOUL moves in reverse. All of the key directions are reversed for it, including the diagonals. It first appears in one of the attacks of the Cyan Dye Bottle in Phase 3. It appears once more in Storyswap Asriel's attack in Phase 3 EX.

#### Type #2

The **second type** of cyan SOUL cannot move unless a projectile is in the "ring" around it. However, once a projectile enters the "ring", the SOUL functions like the red SOUL and can move normally until there are no more projectiles in the "ring". It first appears in one of the attacks of the Cyan Dye Bottle in Phase 3. It appears once more in Storyswap Asriel's attack in Phase 3 EX.

### Blue

The **blue SOUL** is the second most common SOUL type in the Ink!sans fight. It is affected by gravity, and the up key makes it jump. The down key does not do anything for this SOUL. The blue SOUL first appears in Reaper Sans's attack in Phase 1, and it appears many other times in the entire game.

### Pink

The **pink SOUL** is only found in attacks with spider thread. It is restricted to the strands of thread. It can move left/right along the thread, and the up/down keys make it switch threads vertically. The pink SOUL first appears in two of the attacks of the Pink Dye Bottle in Phase 3. It appears once more in Rosetale Muffet's attack in Phase 3 EX.

## Miscellaneous SOUL Types

These are SOUL types that cannot be categorized into any of the colored SOUL categories. They are all exclusive to one attack only.

### "Skateboard" SOUL

The **skateboard SOUL** is exclusive to Fresh Sans's attack in Phase 1. It is colored purple. The skateboard SOUL automatically rolls on its own, and the player only has control of the up key, which makes it jump.

### "Fire/Ice" SOULs

The **fire/ice SOULs** are exclusive to HO Sans's attack in Phase 1. The fire SOUL is colored orange, and the ice SOUL is colored blue. Both move the same way as the red SOUL. They take damage if they hit an attack that is the same type (fire/ice) as them. If they hit an attack that is their opposite type, they do not take damage and will change into their inverse (fire changes into ice, ice changes into fire).

### "Mixed" SOUL

The **mixed SOUL** is exclusive to Echo Sans's attack in Phase 1. It is a fusion of the yellow, green, cyan, purple and blue SOULs. This gives it the ability to shoot a bullet with z/ the enter key, parry projectiles with a shield, and jump. Additionally, due to the cyan and purple parts, all the controls are reversed and the SOUL cannot leave the web.

### "Boat" SOUL

The **boat SOUL** is exclusive to Ocean Sans's attack in Phase 2. It is colored cyan. The boat SOUL is bouyant and floats on water, however, it can also dive with the down key. There is a limit to how long it can dive before it has to surface, otherwise, it will "drown" and take damage.

### "Small" SOUL

The **small SOUL** is exclusive to one of the Red Dye Bottle's attacks in Phase 3. It is colored red. The movement of this SOUL is the same as the red SOUL, however, this SOUL is slightly faster. It has a reduced hitbox that allows it to get into tighter spaces. If a projectile gets into the range of the sprite (not the hitbox), the SOUL will "bleed" but it will not take any damage.

### "Fixed" SOUL

The **fixed SOUL** is exclusive to one of the Red Dye Bottle's attacks in Phase 3. It is colored orange. This SOUL cannot move unless the bullet board's walls push it. For the attack that this SOUL is found in, the arrow keys move the bullet board and the projectiles within it instead. However, the SOUL still takes damage if it hits a projectile, so the player must move the bullet board so that the projectiles do not hit it.

### Ice SOUL

The **ice SOUL** is exclusive to Ultimatale UndyneEX's attack in Phase 3 EX. This SOUL is essentially the blue SOUL but slowed down. It also slips on ice platforms.

### Zipline SOUL

The **zipline SOUL** is exclusive to Ultimatale Alphys's attack in Phase 3 EX. This SOUL can only move along the bullet board walls and the zipline in the center of the board. To get on the zipline, the SOUL must get to a corner of the bullet board and move diagonally.
