Trophy Quote
"Viridian is the captain of the D.S.S. Souleye. When his ship fell victim to the VVVVVV dimension and his crew teleported away, it became his mission to rescue them all and forge a way home. His hallmark ability to flip his own gravity was crucial on this perilous journey." ― Viridian's Trophy Description.
Character Origin
Captain Viridian is a Villi and pilots the D.S.S. Souleye. The game he represents is VVVVVV. In the game they originates from, their most prominent ability is flipping gravity, which helps them traverse the landscape known as Dimension VVVVVV.
Summary
Viridian is a lightweight character in Indie Pogo. Instead of a double jump, this character can hold the jump button to invert his gravity. Their down attack is a powerful spike that becomes a screen reaching projectile.
Moveset
Neutral Aerial: Spins until touching the ground, dealing 2 damage per hit. This move can be preformed while reversing gravity.
Up Aerial: Viridian summons an Avoid! sign above him while propelling itself a little bit upwards dealing 7 damage.
Down Aerial: Viridian does a powerful red "VVV" stomp below him dealing 5 damage and spiking enemies. The spike then becomes a screen reaching downwards projectile dealing 2 damage.
Grounded Charge: Viridian summons a small flashing crosshair, that moves up above him slightly, then moves back downwards back towards him. The crosshair deals 2 damage. The longer this move is charged, the higher the crosshair will go above Viridian. After the charge is released, Viridian can move and attack as normal while the target moves, making it a great combo tool.
SUPER: Viridian does a huge shockwave dealing 3 damage and pinning enemies to the ground.

Trivia
- Viridian is the most expensive character to unlock, tied to his complexity. As an inverse - and almost an irony to the difficulty of VVVVVV - his shop-only skins are the easiest to get, costing 25 coins each.
- Viridian was the 8th character added.[2]
- Viridian stays true to its appearance in VVVVVV: pixelated, simple, and without any detail. This isn't the case of other fighters like Welltaro.
