Overview

About VVVVVV

There's something terribly wrong in an alternate dimension! Help Captain Viridian flip to find five crew members, 20 hard-to-reach Trinkets and save a dimension on the brink of destruction. It's a space opera in the most unique scale with a style that only VVVVVV can bring to you. Instead of jumping, control the direction of gravity by inverting your gravity and allowing Captain Viridian to flip between the floors and ceilings of the environment. For adventurers who save the dimension, there's still hours and hours of new gameplay with all-new Player Levels. Test your mettle and see if you have what it takes to beat a collection of levels created by other famous game developers. Inspired by classic 8-bit days gone-by and now with experience-heightening 3D, VVVVVV will challenge even the most battle-hardened old-school gamers.
Story setup
A spaceship with six crew members - Viridian, Victoria, Vitellary, Vermillion, Verdigris, and Violet - suddenly encountered mysterious trouble while underway. The group escapes by means of a teleportation device, but for some reason all the crew members are sent to different places. Viridian, the protagonist, must find the other crew members and escape from this mysterious labyrinth...
