A new update for Lily's Well is here with new additions for both the game and the bonus art book dlc!

This new update has the following:

• The item system from Lost Cartridge Cold Read is now in Lily's Well! Items can be used in intractable locations in a much more convenient way!
  
• A new game from the main menu can now be started chronologically right before getting the True Ending after seeing the credits instead of the only option being to start fresh.
  
• Two new costumes are available to be unlocked.
  
• A new Alt End is available to be found
  
• New and Redrawn cutscene graphics have been added.
  
• Newly redrawn maps for certain locations have been added.
  
• The Art Book is now double in size and contains behind the scenes information on the Lily's Birthday video.
  
• Minor bug fixes.
  
• Minor spelling fixes.
  
• New flavor text added.

After months of work, it's finally here. This was made to thank the wonderful community that has gathered around Lily's Well.

This video contains major spoilers for the entirety of the game, so it is not recommended to watch until you have reached the true ending or have viewed it via some other method.

Until the next game, thank you for everything!

With every day that passes, more and more of you are expressing your love for Lily and her horrific adventure with that well. After a lot of planning and hard work, I am proud to announce a special video coming this summer.

Lily's Birthday: A Lily's Well Afterstory is a slice of life video that takes place a few months after the events of Lily's Well. It will feature both familiar and new characters. Some previously only mentioned by name will finally have an associated face.

Please look forward to July 20th, 2023. We will all celebrate a very happy birthday together.

To celebrate Lily's Well being over a year old, please enjoy the least frightening playthrough of the game possible by the game's creator. Spoilers will be openly discussed.

It's been a while, hasn't it? I hope all of you had a wonderful year!

As for me, I've been spending most of the year working on another horror game that's finally reaching the final stages of development. I am proud to announce Lost Cartridge - Cold Read, now available to wishlist here on Steam.

This game will be part of a planned horror anthology known as the Lost Cartridge series. Cold Read and all other games in this series will be much longer than Lily's Well as well as offer many more frights and secrets.

I am incredibly thankful for all of your love for Lily's Well this year and I hope you also enjoy Lost Cartridge - Cold Read. A proper trailer will be coming soon!


After I'm done with Cold Read, there are a few things I have planned for Lily's Well in 2023. I cannot guarantee a proper date that this updates will be released, but I do want to get it out at some point.

• Mac compatibility
  
• More secrets
  
• More alt Dead Ends
  
• Cutscene images matching currently worn costumes
  
• Ability to use items directly from the environment examination menu

Lily's Well Version 1.1.1 Changelog
<-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~->

- Fixed bug that causes new games to start with a black screen after the Stupid Idiot End.
- Added a special hidden easter egg.
- Fixed bug that prevented access to the barrel storage room
- Lied to my mother about whether or not a ghost was haunting me after her fairy lights got ripped off the wall in her office by an unseen force upon me walking in. She didn't even ask if I'm haunted or anything, I just immediately responded to the incident with "I'm not being followed by a ghost". She might be suspicious of me and I might have to contact that astrology chick again.
- Fixed bug that allowed players to reobtain a certain rope at the bottom of the well.
- Costume menu graphics now properly appears in close-up scenes.

Thank you all for your support with Lily's Well! I never would've expected all the love it's gotten and it warms my heart to know you've enjoyed your playthrough! Version 1.1 is now here with extra content, bug fixes, and some quality of life changes!

Got one of those astrology chicks to bribe it with scratcher tickets from the local gas station to make it leave my workspace. She told me that it might come back if it doesn't win anything, but I at least managed to buy time to get the build out before it could reattach itself to my computer and infect other people like a terrible creepypasta.
- Minor spelling and grammar fixes
