| Type | Style |
| Effect | Gem veins replaced by crates; shops much rarer |
| Unlock | 3,000 total gems collected |
| First appearance | Downwell (2015) |
Arm Spin Style is the first style to unlock, at 3,000 lifetime gems. Welltaro descends arms-a-whirl, and the well's economy shifts around him: the gem veins found in safe zones are always replaced by crates holding gun modules, and the chance of a side room being a shop drops from 1 in 2 to 1 in 7.
Strategy
With gem veins gone, gems come mostly from enemies, so combos matter more. Every regular safe zone now guarantees a fresh weapon; just don't count on shops appearing when you need one.
