Nicalis To Publish Terry Cavanagh’s VVVVVV on 3DS eShop

October 6th, 2011 – Nicalis, Inc., developer and publisher of independently awesome video games is VVVVVVery excited to announce a publishing agreement with Terry Cavanagh for VVVVVV on the Nintendo 3DS eShop. VVVVVV features the same amazingly retro gameplay, aesthetic and chiptune music (by Swedish musician, Magnus Pålsson), but now in 3D and on the go with your 3DS. Attendees of Indiecade in Culver City, California can play a near-complete preview VVVVVVersion for the first time on 3DS! Just find Terry Cavanagh or Tyrone Rodriguez and ask them to play!

Released in late 2010 for PC, VVVVVV is a 2D action-platformer deeply rooted in the days of 8-bit gaming with incredibly challenging gameplay and secrets. In VVVVVV, you play as Captain Viridian, who must not only save a dimension on the brink of collapse, but also find your ship’s crew–all of whose names begin with the letter V.

Now 3DS owners can experience the critically acclaimed game in 3D, anywhere. When asked for an obligatory quote, Terry Cavanagh said, “I’m VVVVVVery excited about it! This is the first time anything I’ve made has been on a console.”

VVVVVV 3DS Features:
Open-world environment with six unique levels
20 Trinkets to locate and collect
Full 3D awesomeness integrated into the retro-looking art style
- Dual screen functionality with a real-time map!
- Music by Magnus Pålsson
- New Featured Levels
- Future content updates

VVVVVV continues Nicalis’ partnerships with highly talented and super-awesome independent developers. Previously Nicalis has teamed up with Studio Pixel (Cave Story, Ikachan), Nicklas Nygren (NightSky) and NIGORO (La-Mulana). Now Terry Cavanagh’s incredible VVVVVV, too, will make the jump–er, flip–to console.

Hats schon jemand ausprobiert? Ich trau mich noch nicht so ganz. 8 € ist nun nicht grade geschenkt....
Ich geh mal Reviews suchen, evtl. ist das genau das richtige für nen regnerischen Sonntag Nachmittag.

Hab mir das gute Stück für 8 € gegönnt. Der erste Eindruck (nach einer knappen Stunde Spielzeit) ist sehr positiv.
Macht wirklich Spaß und ist trotz gefühlter 1000 Tode nicht demotivierend.

Grafik und Sound sind schon ziemlich cool (zumindest für Retro-Fans). Gameplay sowieso top.

Ich habs mir gegönnt und bin sehr zufrieden damit. Trotz unzähliger Tode bin ich immer am Ball geblieben. Es gibt ein paar Stellen, die irgendwie unschaffbar sind, aber damit kann ich leben.
Es gibt nach dem eigentlichen Abenteuer noch eine Liste an Spezialherausforderungen, alle von verschiedenen Leuten designt. Die sind auch fast alle sehr motivierend und abwechslungsreich.
