Welltaro (Fraymakers)

Welltaro is a playable character in Fraymakers. He was unveiled alongside the game's Kickstarter campaign and was first made available at the launch of its Early Access release.

Hailing from the game Downwell, Welltaro's playstyle revolves around launching vertical projectiles often with the ability to spike midair opponents, while dealing powerful damage. His primary weapon is his gunboots, which allow him to fire bullets and other projectiles from the heels of his feet. He uses them in many parts of his moveset, including his special moves, down aerial, and airdash, as well as his midair jumps. He also utilizes various weapons, upgrades, and styles that appear in Downwell. One of Welltaro's unique mechanics is that his gunboots have a limited supply of ammunition for launching projectiles, which can be refilled by landing on the ground or hitting opponents with his aerial attacks.

Assist functionality
When summoned as an Assist, Welltaro fires bullets directly downward that knock opponents upward on contact, similarly to his down aerial. Unlike with its down aerial counterpart, the projectile has much higher hitstun, making it effective as a combo starter. Its high downward range can also be used to attack opponents from below and knock them up to the summoner's height. However, its limited horizontal range can also make it difficult to land, and the projectile can also be reflected or absorbed by opponents.

It takes 50 damage to fully charge Welltaro.

Playable character
''A uniquely vertical character who uses a variety of spikes and downward-aimed projectiles to wrack up heavy damage! All of his projectiles, even his double jump and airdash, require ammo from his charge meter to use. You regain one ammo each time you hit an opponent and all of it when you land, so make sure to plan your moves carefully - running out of ammo while offstage can be deadly!''

Assist
''Fires a wide projectile straight down that knocks opponents upward. Jump above your opponent, then activate Welltaro to knock them up to you and start up a combo!''
