First session
Open the right experience — Play Inkhead by Trout Land. The official text says you are an ink jar with a pea shooter, you parry anything pink, and you take down the Clock King. Casual is the learning option. Expert is the hard option. Solo and co-op are both supported, and servers hold up to 20 players.
First minutes
Finish the tutorial — Code redemption stays locked until the tutorial is done. The tutorial also shows the prompts for your device.
Parry pink, dodge black — The Belfry panel is the clearest lesson: pink ghosts must be parried, and black spiky ghosts cannot.
Read the contract screen — On the recorded Tin Can Tex entry, Casual does not grant the full contract. Regular does, and Expert is locked behind Regular.
Redeem the known code — After the tutorial, open MENU or press P, choose CODES, and enter the code exactly.
After you can fight
Match the boss you see — World numbers disagree between videos. The boss name and the arena are the stable labels.
Separate stages from bosses — Driftwood Dash and Gearworks Gauntlet display a RUN 'N GUN! card. They are not throne-room fights.
Watch a full run — The video page collects world walkthroughs, including the Clock King castle.
Inkhead is a Roblox PvE shooter by the group Trout Land. You play an ink jar with a pea shooter, parry pink attacks, and fight cartoon bosses toward the Clock King. It is inspired by Cuphead and is a separate game.
Is Inkhead the same game as Cuphead?
No. Cuphead is a different game. Inkhead has its own bosses, stages, wardrobe, and codes. Cuphead patterns and boss names do not transfer.
How do you parry?
The official description says to parry anything pink. In The Belfry, pink ghosts are parried by jumping and jumping again as you touch them. Black spiky ghosts are dodged and cannot be parried. Follow your device's button prompts outside that keyboard panel.
Does Inkhead have codes?
The game page says codes are redeemed in MENU, then CODES, and that codes are shared in the developer's Discord. Listings through October 25, 2026 report 3Mvisits for 100 Ink and 2 Revives. Enter it only after the tutorial, with that exact capitalization.
Can you play with friends?
Yes. The official description supports solo or co-op, and the experience allows 20-player servers. Footage shows two or three players in some fights. It does not show whether boss health changes when a friend joins.
Why do guides disagree about World 2 and World 3?
The Roblox badges only say World 1 Cleared, World 2 Cleared, and World 3 Cleared. Video makers then attach different boss ranges to those numbers. Match the boss on your screen instead of the number.
Is Mugman a playable character?
No Mugman item, price, or ability has been confirmed. The file-select card says INKY & QUILL, and the wardrobe frame shows a head named QUILL BOTTLE. A video title that says Mugman is the uploader's description of the run.
