Try out VVVVVV!

(That’s pronounced like six V’s in a row like V-V-V-V-V-V)

VVVVVV is the newest game by one Mr. Terry Cavanagh and is super awesome. Don’t trust me (and I don’t blame you) then look at these reviews.

Edge gives VVVVVV a 8/10 concluding “Brutal and rather short, VVVVVV’s also devious and darkly funny. It’s a pedantic classic, and a game for watch-makers as much as speed-runners.”

Bytejacker says “VVVVVV is retro not just in style but in focus: it’s clearly a game first and an artistic adventure second, with the player being bombarded virtually nonstop by hardcore platforming gameplay from the moment it begins to the moment it concludes.”

Indie Games agrees and adds that “VVVVVV is not simply immense fun – it’s exciting, challenging, and downright glorious with a stunning soundtrack that will flip you on your head.”

Anthony Burch at Destructoid weighs in musing that “VVVVVV understands exactly how hard it is. The game takes every precaution to simultaneously maintain that difficulty and allow the player to celebrate in triumphing over it”

So yeah, you should definitely buy VVVVVV for just 15 bucks. Or if you’re still unsure after those gushing words then you’re free to play the demo at Kongregate now.

I’ll be back tomorrow with my own review of VVVVVV!
