The very oddly named VVVVVV (pronounced "the letter V six times) is a new retro game from Terry Cavanagh that is very reminiscent of the Commodore 64 days of gaming.
In fact, when the game loads, you see the classic blue loading screen with rainbow flickering borders, just like the good old days. The game also features 30 minutes of original chip music.
VVVVVV focuses on a single game mechanic, which is the player's ability to reverse his gravity. There is no jumping, no keys, no locks, no fighting; it's simply a platform game where the goal is to progress without impediment.
The demo for VVVVVV is available to be played at Kongregate, which amounts to the first two levels of the game. The full game, which can be purchased for Mac or PC, has many more levels, plus a mini game. You can also download the demo for Mac or PC.
