How it feels
Flying through neon fractal galaxies while blasting enemies to a reactive soundtrack feels like a vivid, synesthetic arcade trip.

What players say
Players use Polynomial 2 as a trippy music visualizer more than a shooter, the visuals are widely praised. But the game was abandoned in early access years ago, controls are clunky, movement feels slow, and the unskippable tutorial frustrates many. Player are split on whether the combat is worth bothering with.
