Upwell

A roguelike rocket jumper. Movement and battle are two sides of the same... explosion. Blast, stomp and dodge your way through hordes of floating eyeballs. Outrun the lava and try to escape the well.

Rocket jumping schmoovement 

Master the art of rocket jumping in a literal trial by fire. Leap across ledges, dive for a health pickup, and chain jumps together to maintain your momentum.

Acrobatic boss battles 

When bosses emerge from the well, raw explosive damage won't save you. Juggle yourself through the air, dodge their attacks, and hit them when they're vulnerable.

Roguelike hijinks 

Items change the way you move, fight, heal, and interact with your environment. Adapt to the hand you're dealt or craft your most broken build.

Funky eyeball physics 

Enemies are more than just hazards to kill or avoid. Use them to your advantage to keep moving, or as weapons to send flying.

This is a Playtest build. A full release of Upwell will be coming in 2027!
