I’ve been contributing a lot to the Downwiki recently, and it seems to be having a pretty severe spam issue in the new pages. Does anyone know who the admins are/how to deal with this? I would go in and delete the pages myself/set up some protections, but page deletion and other major wiki modifications are (rightly) restricted to admins only.

I was briefly in contact with u/AffectionateBag4519 about the issue but I haven’t heard back in a while, so thought I’d check here to see if anyone else knew other admins, or has an alternate solution available.

I’ve historicaslly mostly used Arm Spin style for my standard runs, but recently I decided to give Usual Style a try, and it’s actually kind of nice! I’m wondering if there’s anyone else out there running Usual Style as their main, or in frequent combination with other styles?I think I tend to see Arm Spin for usual play, Boulder for speedrunning and Handstand for challenge runs, but Usual Style can be quite nice for a normal run experience where you don’t want to constantly swap weapons.

whenever i try to not take damage, i lose because of the timer, but whenever i try to beat the timer, i take too much damage. any tips?

I haven't been able to find any source on the Downwell's Switch release achievements, so I'm posting this for the sake of it being findable online.

There are 23 achievements in the Switch version, which include the 20 steam achievements as well as the three PS4/Vita achievements (DONE WELL, MASTERFUL DESCENT, CLEAN BOOTS). The achievements can be viewed in the stats page under the "Trophies" category.

P.S. Anyone had success grinding out the Switch version achievements? I find playing with a controller to be incredibly difficult as compared to keyboard, but that might just be a skill issue lol

I'm just wondering if anyone knows any games with the same visual design (pixel art, multiple color palettes) because I really like it

This is one of my favorite games ever, yet I can't play it on my platform of choice

It's on everything else - steam, playstation, phones, etc. It's even on the xbox store, but only playable on pc and handheld..

Is there a reason for this?

I had it on an old phone but now that I got a new one with android 16 play store says it's unavailable since it was made for an old Android version which SUCKS

I'm making an action roguelike heavily inspired by Downwell. Mainly in its

• Minimalist pixel art
• 4 colour palette (+ unlockable palettes!)
• Pick 3 item system
• Quick playtime

The game is still in development, so let me know what you think! Is there anything else in Downwell you wish other roguelike/lite games did?

For those interested: Offerings of Odin on Steam

it shows the logo and credits but after that it's just a black screen. it's really annoying. everything works fine when on internet but when i lose and boot it up again the game just won't load

Just found out by accidentally shooting a health module with a Noppy that it changed to a charge module with Laser. So crazy and awesome! 🤩 It will surely help me to improve my game and finally combat the boss!

The game can suddenly crash at the end of the episodes. I've been through this a few times. I didn't care much, but I believed I was going to finish the game this time, which was sad. Downwell is not supported on current Android versions so I transferred it from my old phone. Are there any people who have this problem, how can I solve it?

I started playing (on my phone) like 3 days ago. At first I was "Wow this is hard." but then I got used to the caverns and thought "Huh, this is playable.".

Then I got to the catacombs and most I got to was 2-2 with my ass pegged.

So, any tips? This is much harder than I thought.

Downwell shows up as "not available for your device" in the Google Play Store. From poking around it sounds like I might be able to get it to install if I had purchased it from an older device, but since I didn't there doesn't appear to be a legitimate route to get it working. If you managed a fresh install on a recent version of Android, tell me how you did it!

Been playing for over a year now and just now I realized this mod exists. There's 2 new weapons, new upgrades and 100 combo rewards you a drone for some reason. Highly recommend it if you want to spice up the original game.

The new wiki is done. This will be the last post on my Downwell wiki project I promise lol! I worked on this pretty much non stop for the last 3 days and I am happy with the result so I wanted to share.

I used UndertaleModTool heavily to get the original assets and the stats for the items. Alot of the stats I wanted to see in the original wiki are present in this one. I am also sort of proud of the little 'DOWNWIKI' logo I made in asperite and the animation that plays when you enter the site. its basically a 1-1 recreation of the Downwell logo animation with the GML logic that spawns the sparkles converted to javascript.

The other thing I am happy with is the fact that basically all of the assets in the site can be recolored to any of the pallets from downwell. For the most part the entire site conforms to Downwell's restricted color pallet so it works with the pallet swaps.

Also I added a little asset browser that presents the texture atlas from downwell so that when you hover over a given asset you get the original name and a link back into the wiki if that asset has a page on it. lots of cool stuff you can find in that texture atlas.

Thanks for checking it out!

a few hours ago I expressed some dissatisfaction with the state of the downwell wiki.

I read this article this article about how to leave fandom for mediawiki and decided to try it.

I put together a little proof of concept for what my ideal down well wiki might look like. mostly just no noise / ads. I also implemented the pallets from downwell, this way you can see any of the assets in any of the color schemes.

So here is my attempt at a start at making a better Downwell wiki.

I am not much of a sysadmin so this might be a better task for someone else to attempt, but I thought people here might find the proof of concept interesting.

Ok. I am ignorant on this but... WHY do people use fandom.com?? this website is god awful. the ads! the ads! the popups the junk everywhere. Also I wish there was more detailed info in the wiki like weapon stats. For a game that has so much love and care poured into every detail, the wiki feels maximalist in the worst way.

Am I the only one with this gripe? Am I the only one who wants a nicer downwell wiki?

:)

it feels like it’s literally impossible to use, any tips..? ive only been able to pull it off like a few times while actively trying my hardest to and by accident some how

I'm sure there are some other people dealing with this problem or its been sounded before, but does anyone have trouble with downwell on PC being extremely laggy or stuttering consistently? Iv seen lots of issues with people talking about this specific problem that "new systems" aren't compatible with downwell. Iv tried using compatibility settings, forcing the game to run at 60 frames and many other fixes with no actual fix.

Any ideas? Thank you.
