Todayâs great PC game youâve probably never heard of? The Polynomial. Or, as I like to call it, my âjust got home from the pubâ game.
Itâs a mathematically-generated space shooter. Howâs that work? It plays music in the background, of your choosing, then adjusts the surrounding space to match the rhythm of the track. Like a music playerâs visualiser mode, basically, only with stuff to shoot in between.
If, like me, you could actually do without the shooting and just want to fly around, you can remove all the bad guys and just cruise, editing the rules governing the generated display to create your own space art.
The gameâs official site is below, and you can grab it for $10 off Steam. Iâve put together a short demo reel showing you how it reacts to different types of music on the one setting (you can of course tinker with things to achieve radically different results).
