VVVVVV

Release
Version: 
2.01
Released: 
28 July 2011

VVVVVV is a retro styled 2D platformer by Terry Cavanagh, creator of dozens of free games. You play as the fearless leader of a team of dimension exploring scientists who inadvertently crash, and are separated. The game involves exploring the strange world you've found yourself in, and reuniting your friends.

VVVVVV explores one simple game mechanic: you cannot jump - instead, you reverse your own gravity at the press of a button. The game focuses on playing with this mechanic in a variety of interesting ways.

The game is designed not to artificially gate your progress. In VVVVVV there are no locks, no power-ups, no switches, nothing to stop you progressing except the challenges themselves.

Its alright

I won't say much about graphics, its way simpler than And Yet It Moves.

The gameplay is smooth.

Die is not a burden. Respawn is good.

We love this type of casual, no much skills needed with an OK storyline.

Did I expect too much or dislike this type of game?

  • 11:42:02 Hi, Superuser. No, web based games are not added (with only few exceptions, like Quake Live). However, there was a separate forum thread for HTML5 games, you can leave interesting links there
