Making Every Second Count

Polygonic Tempest is all about dodging, surviving, and thriving in pure chaos.  

Today’s focus was on making the game feel more alive. I’ve added early visual effects like boost trails, slight screen tints during abilities, and tweaks to enemy behavior to keep things intense.  Reaper Dash now leaves a ghostly decoy behind, attracting bullets and giving you that split-second edge. Reaper’s Silence adds a dark purple screen filter and muffled sound for a short moment of control in the chaos.  It’s starting to feel more like the bullet hell survival I’ve had in my head all along. 

The visuals are lightweight for performance, but impactful enough to bring life to the screen.  More to come soon. Stay sharp—and keep dodging.
