About Drilly Willis
Drilly Willis has a drill for a head and rocks at guitar.
But one night, in an envious rage, Flash Clappy, the most arrogant musician who ever lived, crashes Drilly's concert and banishes them to a world of things they hate.
Now Drilly must escape Flash Clappy's prison, fighting strange creatures with their drillhead and learning guitar songs that grant special powers when played. Along the way, they'll find items that unlock new areas, build upgrades to face stronger foes, and ally with living musical instruments also banished by Clappy, all with their own unique tales to tell.
Can Drilly escape this strange world and find their way back to the music? Or will Flash Clappy, a terrible musician who refuses to practice, succeed in banishing all good tunes, instruments, and musicians for eternity?
Only Drilly Willis Can Save Music!

This game is awesome! . Our review >> https://youtu.be/MZDJKsZQh54 . So you see the art work in the game and you think NO. But .... Think YES YES YES I had so much fun playing this game.

Drilly Willis is a psychedelic rock music themed Metroidvania-lite that feels… like someone’s first game. It has a lot of heart, and I commend its creativity and originality. But it feels like a first draft that needs a lot of polish. My biggest complaint is how it feels to play. The animations are just really stiff and it doesn’t feel good to play. A lot of the platformer and fights feel very buggy and I hit many bugs on my full play though. I don’t mean to discourage, I absolutely think the dev should make another game! But I really recommend playtesting and above all - compare it to other games! Side by side with Ori or hollow knight - what am I missing? And then really take the time to learn it Also, the character upgrades are not useful. Nothing actually changed how you play, there’s no dash or double jump, they’re basically ALL just keys. This makes it not really a true Metroidvania… But ya, the art style is great and refreshing. It’s light hearted and a nice change of pace. But I can’t really recommend it, because it just feels like a rough draft of a game and really lacks in the gameplay department.
