Oof is the Owlbear ever done. Time for window fans and sleeps an' junk. Or whatever, I'm tired, don't expect coherence.

So #Downwell is pretty neat. You play as a small person falling down a well, shooting stuff with your gunboots as you go. It's got great pixely mostly 1-bit (that is, two color) graphics, with unlockable color palettes and stuff, with minimal music and sound effects that round out the experience nicely.

The controls are simple (it's pretty much just left, right, jump/fire) and fluid whether you're using a controller or a keyboard, the gameplay loop is satisfying and suitable for both "just one more" hour long sessions or quick runs. It's a great game ive logged a lot of time in on my #Switch, and I'm starting in on #Steam now.

And that's it for me. Goodnight, fam. Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, play indie games.

Downwell on Steam

Downwell is a curious game about a young person venturing down a well in search of untold treasures with only his Gunboots to protect him.

Back in Downwell's underwater area—going for a swim and gasping for air! In Part 27 I discover you can get oxygen from anything that doesn't move, which made the level way tighter than I thought. Silly clutch moments, bullets, and chaotic fun. Dive in for laughs, fails, and adrenaline! #Downwell #LetsPlay #Gaming #IndieGames #Platformer #Gameplay #Underwater #English

Mi ĵus ludis #Downwell de Ojiro Fumoto. Ĉu ĝi estas tiel amuza kaj originala kiel oni diras? Originala, jes, ĝi estas. Amuza, jes, ĝi estas... sed nur dum la unuaj kvin minutoj. Poste ĝi estas absurde malfacila videoludo. Mi ne rekomendas ĝin.

@dobrado Ah maninho, jogo alguns card games como Void Tyrant e Dugeon Tales (adoro os dois). Jogo alguns RPGs como #Polytopia e #UnCiv. Jogo Também o #Downwell, Color Sheep, #Gravity Box. Um point and Click maravilindo o Grim Fandango ( #recomendo ). #MineTest também. E dou uma jogava bem as vezes neste infinity runner o #Odyssey e o Time Surfer.
Acho que são esses! Talvez eu mande mais... Mas só talvez
