Life of a Polygon
In this short puzzle platformer, players follow the life of a lil' polygon as he embarks on a journey to become a Circle - the ultimate polygon with infinite edges.
Perhaps we are all polygons, each of us in our own futile journey to take on something bigger than ourselves; to become what we are not. But to what end?
This is a project done by a group of National University of Singapore students for the NM3216 Game Design course.

This is very curious, I remember going through a "writer's block" moment, where I wasn't having much motivation with my development. I decided one day to explore itch.io looking for games that could inspire me (or at least find games that are already transmiting the same thing I want my games to transmit) and get me back on track. Tried a lot of games, none of them clicked for me. Finally I found your game, and it just stucked with me. It amazed me how simplistic something can be, but at the same time manage that level of emotion and meaning. It inspired me a lot and got me excited again. Great job here, keep it up!
Just awesome.
Thank you! :)
I enjoyed it, but i am confused, can you win, or do you just go back to the start?
Hmmm... can you really win in Life? ;P
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have never felt so sad about a god damn shape before. Really good job. Hope to see more from you.
HAHA thanks for playing! :)
Life is strange<Life of a polygon

Haha I am flattered. I wouldn't make such a comparison myself, but glad you liked the game!
Enjoyed this game. Inspired to make a game myself.
I am glad you liked it! I am also glad the game inspired you!! :)
