Squid Regarding Swimming...

Can the Inkling move left and right while swimming and recovering ink?

The only ink recharge is through charging in the existing demo version.

Whether that is what the final game version comes out as? Could be different.

I doubt it would get an update. But I find it really disappointing that swimming isn't included. I'd make swimming part of up b. While holding up b on the ground, you can stay underground, and move left and right. When letting go of b, you pop up out of the ground the way it is now.

Um, I'm not sure either of you understand; I'm talking about when you shield -> B to submerge in ink and recover it (ink) and if you can move around while recovering (ink).

I don't think they included swimming in the inkling's moveset. I exchange, they seem to have a crazy fast dash. If you've seen any videos of their dash dance or them dashing in general, it's really nice.

No, you cannot move whilst recharging. Its also quite laggy. However, you do enter a low profile meaning you can use it to duck under say, fox lasers.

Surprisingly the "low profile" of the ink recharge animation is deceptively high. You can get hit by a handful of things quite easily

It's only really safe if you decide not to ledge guard and recharge or knockout someone in a 1v1

There are some smaller situations where you can squeeze in an inkcharge here and there. Any little bit really helps. Because Inkling doesn't have many throw followups (edit: at mid/high percent) you can cut them short and go for an inkcharge instead
