WELL DWELLER GAMEPLAY LIVE: A Dark Fairy-Tale Metroidvania
Playing Well Dweller, the brand-new dark fantasy metroidvania from Kyle Thompson (creator of Islets and Crypt Custodian)! We're taking control of Glimmer... a tiny bird armed only with a matchstick... to explore the rotting kingdom at the bottom of the well, befriend quirky characters, and take down the wicked queen. Will our tiny matchstick be enough to survive the terrifying beasts and brutal platforming? Let's find out! ABOUT WELL DWELLER: Deep within the forest, at the bottom of a well, lives the only creature brave enough to kill the queen. Well Dweller is a hand-drawn, dark fairy-tale metroidvania. Play as Glimmer, a tiny bird armed with a matchstick, who must burn the wicked queen to save his family. The game features highly fluid platforming, unique matchstick-based combat, and a brilliant contrast between adorable woodland creatures and a creepy, desperate world. #WellDweller #Metroidvania #IndieGames #LiveGaming #WellDwellerGame
