'''Gems''' are the currency of the well, dropped by dead [[Enemies|enemies]], red-tinged [[Breakable Blocks|breakable blocks]] and [[Gem Vein|gem veins]]. Small gems are worth 2G and large ones 10G. Uncollected gems disappear after a few seconds.

Gems are spent in the [[Shop]], and your lifetime total also unlocks [[Palettes|palettes]] and [[Styles|styles]]. Collecting 100 gems in a short window triggers the [[Gem High]] state, temporarily powering up your weapon.

Gems sink more slowly in the [[Aquifer]] and [[Limbo]]. The [[Gem Attractor]] upgrade doubles the radius from which they fly to you; [[Gem Powered]] recharges the [[Gunboots]] on collection; [[Popping Gems]] fires an upward shot per gem collected.
