Job #57: Welltaro (Downwell)
(Image from Indie Pogo, since finding an image from Downwell is for some reason really hard)
Welltaro is the playable character in the Devolver Digital game Downwell, a game where you go down a well. WITH GUN BOOTS. Welltaro made a name for himself in crossover fighting games being in Indie Pogo, and confirmed playable in Fraymakers and Indie Rumble. So, why not make him playable, he has moveset potential... Well, him already being playable in 3 Indie crossover platform fighters is why he shouldn't be playable, he already had his time to shine in multiple games and there are other Devolver Digital characters who I feel should also have time to be playable, so despite how much I love Downwell I can't in good faith suggest him being playable for the 4th time. That said, he'd be a really cool assist and I think Downwell should get representation for what it's managed to achieve (it was a direct inspiration for Indie Pogo's super and gem mechanic, apparently it was really successful for DD, and it was mostly made by one person).
Welltaro would be able to run and jump, anyone he jumps on getting dealt huge damage, Welltaro has the Machine Gun module equipped and can fire down if he's above opponents. Welltaro also has the Hot Casing and Blast Module equipped (thought these were the most dangerous pair and I didn't want Welltaro with every upgrade, that'd be ridiculous power wise), meaning any time Welltaro shoots a bullet casing comes from the boot and if it hits an opponent they are dealt damage, and if Welltaro lands on an opponent an explosion appears under Welltaro with the potential of hitting anything under it.
