Help! Everyone has been teleported away randomly! As the heroic Captain Viridian, it's up to you to find your friends, bring them back to safety, and save the universe!

VVVVVV is a platform game all about exploring one simple mechanical idea - what if you reversed gravity instead of jumping?

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.

Key features:

  • Elegant, minimalistic level design.
  • Challenging, fast and fun gameplay.
  • Frequent checkpoints mean you never have to replay challenges you've already beaten.
  • Over half an hour of chiptune music by composer Magnus Pålsson.
  • Special game modes, including time trials and a no death mode.
  • A powerful and easy to use level editor for creating your own dimensions to explore.

An A+ indie darling

Put simply this game is just fun with a lovely throwback retro art style a simplistic but challenging gameplay style and one of the best 8-bit soundtracks I've ever heard this game gets a lot right. The dialogue is Fun if minimal and the premise is pretty straightforward being a side scrolling platformer with an antigravity mechanic and some light puzzle solving there isn't too much here but what is here is top-notch highly recommended especially given how cheap the game can go for during a sale if it looks like something you might be interested in you are sure to get your money's worth

Easier to play than pronounce

I came to VVVVVV (one... two... three... four... five... six Vs... that's spelled right, right?) well after its initial release and became interested because of the reviews here. After playing it, I must agree that it's an interesting puzzle game/platformer. You cannot jump; rather, you have to reverse your character's gravity to cross gaps and avoid obstacles. Many reviewers have highlighted the game's difficulty. I have to say, the main game can be frustrating, but it's not nearly as hard as (say) pronouncing the name of the game. The worst of the worst comes from some optional levels that you need to complete to get the best ending; navigating five screens of spikes to jump over a one-pixel cube is beyond ridiculous. Fortunately for those of us who lack the patience, there is an invincibility mode that you can toggle on and off to handle these levels. My biggest complaint with VVVVVV is the story. It is forgettable, and I couldn't remember the names of the characters even as I was playing the game. I get that a memorable story is not needed when you have an addictive and innovative gameplay experience, but still... Nevertheless, VVVVVV is well worth picking up. Given that it's often on sale for less than $2, it's not much of a risk.

Even good with spoilers

This game basically doesn't need an intro in 2022, but what the heck. I, like many people, saw videos of this game years ago when it was popular. I decided to get it anyways to see if I'd have fun playing it, and i don't regret it. It's not a long game: you'll possibly finish it in a few hours at most, but it's great quality all the way through. It's a simple platformer conceptually, but it has some tricky sections that are cleverly designed. The music is surprisingly good too: pretty much every track is very entertaining.
