VVVVVV/README.md

![logo](logo.gif "VVVVVV")

This is the source code to VVVVVV, the 2010 indie game by [Terry Cavanagh](http://distractionware.com/), with music by [Magnus Pålsson](http://souleye.madtracker.net/). You can read the [announcement](http://distractionware.com/blog/2020/01/vvvvvv-is-now-open-source/) of the source code release on Terry's blog!

The source code for the desktop version is in [this folder](desktop_version).

VVVVVV is still commerically available at [thelettervsixtim.es](https://thelettervsixtim.es/) if you'd like to support it, but you are completely free to compile the game for your own personal use. If you're interested in distributing a compiled version of the game, see [LICENSE.md](LICENSE.md) for more information.

Discussion about VVVVVV updates mainly happens on the "unofficial" [VVVVVV discord](https://discord.gg/Zf7Nzea), in the `vvvvvv-code` channel.
