Bullet Well

Your own shots create danger.

The player climbs a seemingly endless well while bullets ricochet violently between its walls. Your own shots create danger. Minimal systems, maximal emergent gameplay — tension, mastery through repetition, chaos within predictable physics. Fast failure, fast retry.

"Your weapon becomes the level design."

Core Mechanics

Physics-based ricochet — Bullets bounce multiple times, creating emergent hazards. Every shot shapes the space you're climbing through.

Vertical progression — Upward escape creates urgency and pressure. The well keeps going; so do you.

Death conditions — Bullet impact, or falling below the visible space. Clean rules, sharp stakes.

Emergent Chaos

Ricochets create patterns you didn't plan. Predictable physics, unpredictable moments.

Fast Retry

Death is quick. Restart is quicker. Mastery through repetition, not punishment.

Lean Scope

Mechanics-first. No bloat. One well, one climb, one weapon — infinite permutations.

Signature identity: Minimal systems → maximal emergent gameplay.
