If Super Mario married a guitar god from Rock Band, their offspring might resemble something like Mevo & the Grooveriders, a quirky music game for the PC. This side-scrolling rhythm puzzler is both entertaining and challenging and what it lacks in the originality department it makes up for in sheer fun.Music is good and silence is bad - this is what you need to know going into Mevo & the Grooveriders, as our hapless alien critter must reunite his band, the Grooveriders, and bring funk back to save the universe. Players must control Mevo through five psychedelic worlds, by running, jumping, swimming and flying from the left side of the screen to the right.
Shanghai-based Red Rocket Games (who you might remember as the developer of a cool little puzzle game called Zenerchi with PlayFirst), have announced that they're working on a new music game called Mevo & the Grooveriders.Mevo, the main character, has to reunite his band, the Grooveriders, and bring "FUNK" back to the universe by defeating the enemy SILENCE. To move Mevo through the game's five fantastic worlds (Ocean, Jungle, Desert, Spaced and Wormhole), players must tap two keys to the rhythm of the game's music as it gets played and shown in the game.
