Pro Throwback to Atari/C64 games while playing like a modern game
VVVVVV is very reminiscent of a game one would find for the Atari or Commodore 64 in that the graphics are simple, but the gameplay is anything but as it plays like nothing one would have found back then. It is fast paced and very precise, also extremely tough.
Pro Runs well even on weaker hardware
Pro Engaging and motivated community
Teeworlds' one-of-a-kind community is the thing keeping the game alive. Be it the community servers or maps or all the other innovative content.
Pro Easy to pick up but hard to master
You will never stop learning new tricks while playing Teeworlds, no matter how long you play. At the same time it's easy for new players to just pick it up and have a blast.
Pro Available from Steam and in Linux distributions
So it's easy to play cross-platform with friends.
Pro Tons of mods and maps
Pro Very fun and engaging gameplay
Even at relatively low skill levels the game is a lot of fun - think Worms in Realtime! The antics you can get up to while "hooking" yourself around maps is just silly :P.
Pro Very pretty
Pro Very intuitive
Easy to install and use.
Pro Usually populated servers
Cons
Con Difficult
VVVVVV is a tough game, one that will cause frustration quite easily. Luckily there are unlimited lives in the game, so areas can be played over and over again with no consequences.
Con Not much of a story
The basic plot is that you are trying to save your crew members, but really it is just a loose story to tie the levels together as there is really not much there to discover.
Con Weird net-code
Even though the game is playable without issues and characters move like they should, they don't register enemies' mouse movements really well. Because of that, it's hard to tell apart who is a spinbotter and who's a legit pro player.
