Much apologies for the looong delay in this much needed fix! This update addresses the issue where the game ran at 45 FPS for some reason. It should be back to running in 60 FPS now. Other changes: More window scaling options Previously the game only let you scale to x4.5 in size
Game Boy-style platformer Downwell and board game adaptation Space Hulk: Tactics will be added to the Xbox Game Pass for PC next month. Downwell will be added first, on August 1, with Space Hulk: Tactics coming on August 8. Confusingly, the announcement also lists Slay the Spire
If you don't have either Xbox Game Pass or Game Pass Ultimate, it's about time you looked into it, because they're putting Slay the Spire on it next month - and some other games too, I guess. Microsoft has announced August's line-up , which offers a little something for everyone,
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Downwell occupies a similar space in my Steam library as Nidhogg . Tense, kinetic, focused, ridiculous. But instead of swordplay, we’re rescuing our cat from the bottom of a

Nintendo has hired the creator of reverse-shmup Downwell . As one hawk-eyed ResetEra user spotted, Ojiro 'Moppin' Fumoto tweeted the news out earlier today, though he previously announced the hiring last month on Facebook . The tweets are in Japanese, but according to my knowledg

Downwell is an tight vertical shooter in which no single part of the game is wasted. I’ve tried many times to explain exactly how smart its design is, as has Adam , but it can be hard to appreciate the beauty of a clockwork machine by someone describing cogs and pendulums to you.
WHY I LOVE In Why I Love , PC Gamer writers pick an aspect of PC gaming that they love and write about why it's brilliant. Today, Tom stomps, stomps, stomps in Downwell. You've fallen down a hole—bad luck. Fortunately you had the foresight to leave the house in your shiny new gun
What is the best shooter of 2015? The RPS Advent Calendar highlights our favourite games from throughout the year, and behind today’s door is… Downwell ! …
Adam returned from below yesterday with his review , but Downwell has also pulled Graham into its depths. The pair pulled on a gunboot each to discuss the down-scrolling platformer’s simplicity, its feels, and its flaws. …

Downwell is Now Available on Steam! Downwell is a curious game about a young boy venturing down a well in search of untold treasures with only his Gunboots to protect him.
Bayonetta sold me wholly on gunshoes but, if Platinum’s kickwitch won’t come to PC (seems so), I’ll get my fix of kerblamky boots elsewhere. Like Downwell . The depths-plumbing platformer sees a low-fi kid with gunshoes venturing down a well to find fame and fortune, blasting mon
Downwell has one of the best video game names, because it is a video game about falling down a well. Unlike most people who fall down wells, the hero of Downwell has a pair of gunboots, meaning he can shoot bullets to keep himself aloft. He can also use his gunboots to murder his
