About this game
Play as a lightning-charged mouse who flaps its ears to move. Fight increasingly difficult monsters with automatically fired bolts of lightning as your primary weapon. You’ll be on the edge of your seat through 30 distinct waves across three levels. Each wave is unique and has a different attack, making every encounter tense, unpredictable, and packed with action.
Collect coins from defeated enemies to upgrade 24 different properties and unique abilities called “Wishes.” These include powerful new weapons, economic effects, weapon modifiers, stat boosts, and more, fueling a strong progression curve.
Conquer huge bosses at the end of each level. With layered attack patterns and multiple phases, these extended battles deliver a distinct challenge beyond regular enemy waves.
When defeated, you lose your coins and restart from the beginning of the level, but keep your acquired Wishes. This makes you more powerful each time you begin a new run, creating a thrilling sense of exponential domination.
Flap left or right to move horizontally, and adjust your flapping speed to control altitude. You can also dash sideways to dodge tricky projectiles. This simple control scheme is easy to learn, yet offers expressive, skillful movement.

Well Keeper is now released!
It started as a part-time project in August 2023, where I prototyped flappy movement mechanics in a metroidvania / survivor-like context. A year later, I had dropped the metroidvania part but the flappy movement remained. The idea of the mouse in the well started to take shape and it was beginning to look like a shoot 'em up. After another two years of development and playtesting, the game finally settled into what it is today.Thanks everyone who supported the project along the way!Read full article on Community Announcements (Corporate Potato)Community & EventsOfficial
