MEVO & the Grooveriders sounds like a bad 80s cartoon. But if you buy it on Steam, you can play as the cast of Left 4 Dead. Thatās groovy, right?
MEVO & the Grooveriders is a music-centric PC game with what the press release calls a āreal retro gaming feel.ā The point is to make your playable Mevo tap keys to the beat of music. Somehow this gets the Grooveriders back together and thereās this elaborate plot line about a totalitarian entity called the SILENCE that youāre trying to defeat through the proletariat power of music.
Totally would have passed this up, but for a little line toward the bottom of the press release email: āIt also has a special version coming out on Steam that features the 4 characters (Louis, Francis, Bill and Zoey) from Valveās hit game Left 4 Dead.ā
GamesRadarās got the first screens along with some character art. Iām not entirely sold on it yet, but the Hunter design looks awfully cute.
