Fraymakers/Welltaro
Story
Welltaro is a "young person" who is the protagonist of Downwell, a game where he travels down a well, shooting enemies, chaining together midair combos, and earning upgrades as he descends deeper and deeper down. Why? I'm not just gonna spoil the ending here, you're gonna have to play it for yourself to find out.
Gameplay
Overview Welltaro generally likes to stay above his opponents, tacking on damage with small bullets created by his mid-air jumps and creating openings by hitting them with an aerial, mainly down air, which is a larger bullet that launches opponents upwards for a safe follow up. His unique ammo resource can be difficult to keep track of at first, but it creates a very unique character with extremely explosive and expressive gameplay once you get the hang of him.

Unique Mechanics
- Bullets
Welltaro's jump (1), down air (3), up B (2), down B (4), and air dash (2) all consume his bullets. If he doesn't have enough bullets to perform one of these actions, he won't be able to use it, making a clicking sound and displaying the text "EMPTY!" above his head.
He can get bullets back by hitting the opponent with a physical attack (1 per hit) or grabbing ledge/landing on stage (all 8 are refreshed instantly).
Welltaro's side B, Gem High, deals more damage and knockback the less bullets you have, being an extremely powerful kill move when you have no ammo.
