VVVVVV Coming To Switch

Nicalis has announced VVVVVV for Nintendo Switch:

SANTA ANA, California, October 23, 2017—Nicalis, Inc., video game developer and publisher, announces today that the crazy fun gravity-switching saga VVVVVV will release on the Nintendo eShop for digital download on November 17. It will carry a price of $9.99.

In VVVVVV you play as Captain Viridian, brave commander of a spaceship whose crew members are accidentally teleported to random locations in an unknown dimension. While exploring the ship and its surroundings, you can switch the polarity of gravity at any time. You can “fall up” to extricate yourself from pits and walk across the ceiling when it’s too dangerous to step on the floor. Viridian uses this ability to search for teleporters, shiny collectible trinkets and the ship’s missing crew.

“VVVVVV was designed by Terry Cavanagh as an homage to the 8-bit Commodore 64 computer games that he played while he was growing up,” says Nicalis president Tyrone Rodriguez. “But you don’t need to have had those experiences to enjoy every last bit of it. It’s one of those rare games that are immediately accessible and simple.”

The Switch version of VVVVVV runs at 60 frames per second, with bright and colorful throwback graphics and a number of graphical filters to change the visual aesthetic. The supremely catchy chiptune soundtrack will stay in your head for hours after you stop playing.

Developed by distractionware and Nicalis, Inc., VVVVVV will be available for Nintendo Switch on November 17 as a digital download from the Nintendo eShop for $9.99 (North America) or 9,99€ (Europe). The game has been rated E by the ESRB.

OCR04686: Super Hexagon: Focused - Crashlander

[Focus]

from OverClocked ReMix; originally a track on the album Last One Out Turns Off the Light by Crashlander. more by Crashlander here

song credits and lyrics:

Guitars: Sándor Berki, Gábor Sárosi, Attila Géczy

Bass: Attila Géczy

Vocals: Attila Géczy

lyrics:

[Verse 1] The chase just started But many won't pursue Dream like floating Carried by the flow

There's goals and progress (goals and progress) The wheel never stops Structure and direction As the focus never drops

[Scream 1] Connected, unsuspected Tessellated and plain symmetric Intersected, injected Collated and downright electric

[Chorus 1] Without a will to form it right Without it working like a glue The strength will offer nothing The flow just can't come through

[Refrain 1] Fading fabrics of our lives Wawing fingers like sharp knives Holding on To what we can't follow As we focus on the flow

[Scream 2/Bridge] Walls closing in Six lines of symmetry Changing direction Pulsating affection

[Solo: Sanyi]

[Verse 2] Can't hold the progress The stream will only grow It's like the flood now I'm carried by the flow

[Chorus 2] Without a will to form it right Without it working like a glue The strength will offer nothing Flow just can't break through

[Refrain 2] Fading fabrics of our fate Weaving fingers tight and straight Holding on to what we know As we focus on the flow

<<JUST FOCUS>> <<JUST FOCUS>> <<JUST FOCUS>>

So Terry C., one of my favorite indie game devs, recently decided to make a "simple music creation tool" which is actually pretty awesome and fun.  Very approachable while still being effective.  If 16-bit music and looping video game sounds are up your alley, go on and try it out!

Hexlaser 2: Ultios Insector is a dual stick shooter where you survive as long as possible, destroying as many insectoid enemies as you can before you go. Made for Ludum Dare 27. 

Requires a joypad with dual analog sticks (tested with a PS3 controller). May or may not work on all joypads, I have no idea.
