OVIVO - A Metaphoric Game of Balance
OVIVO is a unique game developed by Sometimes You, available on the Nintendo Switch platform. The game is all about balance, where black and white exist in harmony, constantly intertwining and replacing each other to maintain balance. As the player, you control OVO, the main character, created from these two halves of the world and with the ability to switch between them.
OVO travels through a metaphoric world, overcoming various dangers and collecting mysterious symbols. The symbols help you to unravel the story of this world, which is narrated through gameplay and visuals without any text. The game is designed to be meditative with a fascinating art style that is full of hidden images and optical illusions.
One of the unique features of OVIVO is the flow mechanics, where the gravity force is directed downwards in white and upward in black. The preservation of momentum while transitioning from one color to another allows OVO to float along their border as if it is carried by the flow. The game is also filled with allusions and hidden messages, making it a symbolic and puzzling experience.
Overall, OVIVO is an intriguing game that challenges the player's perception of balance and harmony. The meditative ambient soundtrack by Brokenkites adds to the overall experience, making it a must-play for those who enjoy unique and thought-provoking games.
