Fresh and interesting. A few flaws. – Downwell Review

At first, you might think, " Virtual buttons? 4 color palletes? Randomized levels? Why am I killing!?!" But then you start thinking; and that is my well! Or is it?? How can I survive? How do these things change? Where am I going?? Essentially, we have here a side-scrolling action game with power ups, stats, and score-that-matters (money). The controls are simple: dedicated areas of the screen for left and right movement, and an action button. If you enjoy a bit of abstraction to your mystery, and action is the thing to do, then you will enjoy the discovery and dexterity boosting rapid-tap controls and quick look visuals the Downwell offers. Only flaws is that, twice, my level up pallet unlocks didn't register or save. Oopz.
