### 4/5 — 1/16 do VVVVVV

*2026-03-09*

É o minigame de resgatar um dos membros,mas,a platina tá travada porquê as conquistas são do VVVVVV e não desse jogo em específico,conserta aí,mancho

### 2/5 — Low resolution and refresh rate, constant stuttering

*2025-04-14*

Playing on iPhone 15, this little game runs at a very blurry low resolution and appears to be 30Hz or less. This is disappointing. However, the constant stutters are the worst.

I played VVVVVV on PC and Switch and love the game. I’d love to have the Gravitron with me on the go, but this version is borderline unplayable.

Sadly, this makes me assume that the full game is also plagued by the same issues on iOS.

### 2/5 — Not optimised for iPhone 15 Pro Max

*2024-06-15*

This used to be great but you can't control it on the far left and far right of the screen anymore on my iPhone 15 Pro Max! 😔

### 4/5 — Great time waster game from a great title

*2023-04-28*

First off, I will say that this game is NOT representative of the original VVVVVV game. The original game has about 9 different levels with a huge overworld, and the Super Gravitron appears at the end of the game. Pretty much, this game is an exact copy of the Super Gravitron from the original game.

Anyways, that being said, I’ll go ahead and leave my review of the Super Gravitron by itself. First off, this game is a great time waster game. It’s not addictive, there’s no purchases, and there’s no ads, but it still allows you to quickly pass the time while still letting you put your device down. Due to the game’s difficulty, it is very hard to ‘beat’ the game right away. My best time is actually 59:77, and I’ve never been able to get past that in the 4 years I’ve had this game.

I thoroughly recommend this game to anyone who wants to waste time without being glued to their phone. Now, the reason why I gave this game 4 stars instead of 5 is because of unfair moments - very rarely, 2 L-shaped attacks or 2 0-shaped attacks will come out and they’re nearly impossible to dodge if it happens. It’s very frustrating to have a good run only to have it end due to an unfair moment. And this is an easy fix too. The game seems to be using state machines to use the attacks, so an array or queue could be used to store the last 3 states and ensure that an unfair moment doesn’t happen. But other than that, I strongly recommend getting this game.

### 4/5 — Doesn’t Take Up the Whole Screen

*2020-05-17*

This game is fun and fast-paced. I enjoy it quite a bit, but it’s difficult to play on an iPhone X because it doesn’t take up the whole screen and so I have to reach past the edges to tap the control buttons. An update for larger screens would be much appreciated!

### 4/5 — Great Game

*2019-11-12*

I loved this mode when I first went through it in VVVVVV, and now it’s a game??? A painful challenge (even more painful as it’s on mobile 😬) as always, totally worth it to buy... BUT IT’S FREE!!
Anyways, the only complaint I have is that the pixels don’t seem to be sharp at all (set on linear). Could you add a setting for that??

### 4/5 — This game is not representative of the full VVVVVV Game.

*2019-05-02*

I thought I would mention this first because there are a lot of reviews that assume this is exactly how the main game plays. This isn’t even close to how the main game plays. The only thing really shared are the art, music, and moving left and right.

That being said: This is exactly like the Super Gravitron in the full game. The music is the same, the game looks the same, the momentum feels the same, etc. I honestly wouldn’t be that surprised if this game turned out to be the full game slightly modified to only go to and from the super gravitron. The only real complaint I have with the app is I was never a huge fan of the gravitron or the super gravitron in the full game, so I’ve docked it 1 star for that.

### 5/5 — なんとか20秒

*2019-03-19*

すごく難しいですがテンポが良くてついついやってしまいます

### 2/5 — Glitch deleted high score ):

*2019-03-04*

I got my high score, then went right to Game Center to check where it ranked me. It didn’t recognize my score. Then, when I went back to the game, my old high score was there and my new one was gone. I think in the past I’ve had to play one more game after earning a high score to get the game to “save” it. Can you fix this? Super fun game otherwise

### 5/5 — 🤔🤔🤔

*2019-02-18*

さいこうでひた

### 4/5 — これ単体でアプリ化されていることに驚き

*2019-01-10*

他の誰もが言う通り、非常に難しいです。
アプリの説明にも書いてある通り、Super Gravitronは元々、VVVVVVのクリア後のおまけのやりこみ要素を単体でアプリ化したものです。
個人的には、PC版のVVVVVVを買ってプレイした人が、外出先でも気軽にSuper Gravitronをプレイできるように…というのが、このアプリの位置付けであるように感じます。
VVVVVVがそもそも高難度アクションであり、そしてSuper GravitronはVVVVVV本編クリア者にとっても難しいと感じるレベルです。そのため難しいと感じるのは当然だと思います。
とにかく、VVVVVVをプレイしたことが無い人は、VVVVVVを買ってプレイすることをおすすめします。ここApp Storeでも¥360で買えます(2019/01/11時点)。ただし、VVVVVVにSuper Gravitronが含まれていますので、iOS版のVVVVVVを買った方には、このアプリは不要でしょう。
尚、私はSteam版でVVVVVV本編をクリアし、Steam版とiOS版両方のSuper Gravitronに挑んでみましたが、未だ10秒を越せていません。難しいですね。

### 5/5 — Good time waster

*2018-12-28*

It's a minigame so there isn't much substance, not even a menu screen when you die. 
For what it is it's pretty addicting. No ads and once you die you respawn right away. It's also very hard. I've had it for days now and my record has been 7.06 seconds for a while.

### 5/5 — THE BEST GAME EVER

*2018-05-22, version 1.1*

I like this game very much. It is really hard and fun. I can’t get above 14.14 seconds but that’s okay because I constantly practice to try to beat my high score. A lot of my friends have this game. I really want to beat my high score

### 3/5 — Неплохо, но было лучше

*2018-04-02*

Покупал в Steam полную версию игры, в оригинале не было такого управления, изменение гравитации было вручную. Здесь же оно автоматическое, что крайне неудобное, в связи с чем продолжительность игры малая. Саундтрек великолепен, этого не отнять, но к сожалению графика показалась, как на эмуляторе, не хватает той резкости, как в ПК версии.

### 2/5 — つらい

*2018-01-03*

コンセプトはいいが、難しすぎる。
制作者の意地悪さが滲み出る弾のパターンで、トライアンドエラーも楽しくなく、ただつらいだけ。
10秒までやりましたが達成感はありませんでした。

### 5/5 — すばらしい

*2017-08-14*

10秒すら行けない

### 1/5 — バグ直せやゴラァァァァァァァァァ！！！👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

*2023-08-12*

10秒を越えたとき、ベストタイムが更新されませんでした。
3回10秒台を取りましたが、3回とも記録が反映されませんでした。ベストタイムは8.42のままです。
イライラしたのでアンインストールしました。

### 1/5 — Invincibility

*2022-10-08*

I find the game really hard and you should make a version with invincibility mode.

### 1/5 — 理不尽

*2018-12-05*

弾を避ける楽しさと達成感がないです。トロフィーとったのに記録されていなかったのでマイナス

### 1/5 — 難しすぎる

*2017-08-24*

5秒が限界

### 1/5 — Awesome music, insanely difficult

*2015-05-08, version 1.0*

This game is unreasonably difficult. Any success feels like pure luck, nothing rewarding. The music is amazing and is what makes this game feel fun, but it's actually not.

### 1/5 — Let's be honest.

*2014-12-30*

I got this game after I have read awesome reviews with dudes speaking about Gameboy graphic, old school arcade and similar. 1) Being a guy born and raised in 80's, it's my duty to inform you that this game tries to mimic The Mighty, Good, Old Commodore 64's graphic. It uses its system font too. 2) Talking about the game design and its main character, I used to draw sprites of such complexity when I was 12 years old, on this machine. Understanding this is just a minigame and free, it gave me a good idea of what the complete game could be. Back in the days, those were the tipical (bad) games coming from magazines on a cassette (yes, tapes!) of random games, that after a first try were ending up in the bin or passed to a friend. Indeed I would not pay a cent for the related full game.

### 1/5 — Poo

*2014-12-13, version 1.0*

Worst game ever

### 1/5 — BGMに騙されてるだけのクソゲー

*2014-10-13*

リプレイ性は良いのに運要素が多すぎる
キャラクターの小ささ、予告から弾が飛んでくるまでが速い、球のパターンが判別できない…など遊んでいてイライラするだけ

### 1/5 — What???

*2014-09-10*

It just gives me a black screen..... I'm so confused aha how do I get it to work??

### 1/5 — Wow, this is bad

*2014-09-06*

Good thing it's free. No point to this game, you bounce around hopelessly with objects thrown at you in a random pattern. Never made it to that 5 second trophy. Don't waste your time with this garbage.

### 5/5 — Great time-wasting game!

*2022-04-15*

If you liked VVVVVV then this is the toilet game for you

### 5/5 — Great time killer!

*2022-04-11*

I loved VVVVVV and the Gravitron on its own is fantastic! My best time has been 48 seconds for a while now - very hard, but very addicting, and easy to put down.

### 5/5 — 5 Star

*2021-07-04*

At first I thought this game was bad, but then I realized that I just needed to get gud.

### 5/5 — 何故無料…？

*2020-04-29*

VVVVVV本編のオマケにある要素なのですが、これが無料で遊べるのはいくらなんでも太っ腹過ぎると思います。ゲーム自体はシンプル・イズ・ベストを追求したようなゲームで避けるだけなのですが、高難易度なので記録を更新する度にとてつもなく大きな達成感に満ち溢れます。高難易度ゲームが得意だったり好きな人には極楽なのですがゲームがあまり上手ではない人にはすこし苦かもしれません。VVVVVV本編はこういった避けゲーではなくアクションゲームで最高の曲と最高のゲーム体験が出来るので興味が湧いた人はそちらも楽しむことをオススメします。

### 5/5 — 도전심이 생김

*2020-03-28*

똑똑한 사람이라면 30분 하고 10초 넘기기 가능
폰 성능이 안 좋아서 버퍼링이 있다면 5초가 힘듬

### 5/5 — 神ゲー

*2019-04-25*

時々ベストタイムが消えてしまいます。それ以外は最高です
