The next and final three balloons sit on top of the wall, ahead up the ramp, and ahead up another ramp on the left. They can then ink up one side of the wall and climb up it. The player is then told they can press repeatedly to swim up walls faster. Players can throw a bomb at the crate to blow them up or take down the crates one by one. Ahead is a wall split vertically into three parts: the one in the middle taking up half the wall, being uninkable with two large crates side by side on the ground and a grated wall on top and the two on the side taking up a quarter each, being inkable with a stack of three large crates each.

Players are then introduced to which allows them to throw their Splat Bombs, as well as to submerge in ink with to regain ink.

The next balloon is in front and the one after that around a left turn. Players are then informed that ink of opposite colour of their own hurts them and is hinted to ink their path with. Players have to swim in the ink to gain momentum and then jump in front of it to pass the ledge and the grate onto enemy ink. After that, there is another grate wall on top of a short uninkable ledge. There is a vertical short grate wall ahead, which the player cannot jump over but have to swim through with the ink laid down on both sides of the grate. The next balloon hovers over a left turn. The player has to jump onto the stairs to get over it. Ahead is a balloon on top of a two-step uninkable staircase. After dropping down a ledge, they are introduced to which allows them to jump. They are then introduced to a passageway surrounded by tall walls. The player is hinted to ink the board and swim up it. The first balloon is on top of the structure, the next one to the left of it, and the one after that on top of a vertical inkable wooded board with upward arrows marked on it. They can then swim up to the concrete structure ahead already painted with their ink. After dropping down a ledge, they are introduced to which allows them to enter squid form. Players are then introduced to a closed area with girders and uninkable cloth. After that, the player has to take a left turn to walk across a short bridge to the next balloon. The next one is located on the other side of the wall. Players are hinted to use to look around the corner. After popping them, the next one spawns around the corner of the right wall. After popping it, the player meets a zebra crossing across, with a stack of crates to the right and the next two balloons in front. The next one spawns further ahead down the ramps. Players can then move towards the balloon and pop it. This one is too far for the player to shoot down, and after a moment they are allowed to move towards it with. Another balloon spawns to their right after the first one is popped, and then another one further to the left after popping the second one. Next, they are instructed to hold down to shoot down the balloon. They then are introduced to which they can use to reset their motion controls. The tutorial starts with the player holding their aim on a balloon directly in front of them. A button map is kept on the bottom left corner at all times, and labels for each button are added to the map as they are introduced to the player. Balloons only spawn after the previous one is popped, or the player enters a new area. Players are encouraged to pop them and learn the controls, though they are not required to do so (except for at the beginning until they are given control to move around). Throughout the tutorial, balloons spawn with a guiding arrow pointing at them.
