Questions tagged [vvvvvv]
An indie platformer with no jumping. The main mechanic is flipping, which switches gravity for you (and just you). One of those games that are hardly over when you 'win' them, VVVVVV raises the bar very high for OCD completionists with hard challenges ("Vici!"), extremely hard challenges (Super Graviton) and impossibly hard challenges ('no deaths' mode).

Analogue controls
Does VVVVVV support analogue control? (on PC or on console). If so, does that make it easier to play? For instance, one could stand still on a conveyor.

Can you get a rank worse than B in VVVVVV time trials?
Time trial mode gives ranks to runs. I made a pretty bad run and got... a B, which isn't that bad of a mark? I was expecting a big bold F or something.
Is B the worst rank VVVVVV will give?
