“Sometimes… you have to let the prototype speak — just so the final version can scream.”
Hey everyone — it’s Diyogan from StarByte Games, and today I’ve got something special for the curious, the dedicated, and the chaos-chasers.
🎮 Polygonic Tempest: Prototype Demo is officially being dropped as a legacy version of the game — a raw, early-stage bullet survival experience built to test mechanics, pacing, and Reaper's unique skillset.
But let’s be clear:
🔥 This demo is not representative of the final game. At all. 🔥
This demo is a mechanics showcase — nothing more, nothing less. It features:
One character (Reaper)
A sample of abilities
Basic bullet survival gameplay
Placeholder visuals
No room system or progression
No story or roguelike depth
It’s intense. It’s playable. And it was never meant to last.
Because I believe every storm has an origin — and this demo is the spark.
It's here for:
Those who want to see the journey from the ground up
Feedback collectors and bug hunters
Hardcore survival fans who want a quick challenge
Devlog watchers and game design enthusiasts
So play it. Break it. Survive it. Laugh at it.
Then get ready for what’s coming next.
And it’s nothing like this demo.
🎲 Randomized Rooms
Say goodbye to static arenas — the final version brings procedural generation, varied layouts, and unpredictable encounters. No two runs will be the same.
🎨 Overhauled Visuals
New pixel art. New effects. Juicier impacts. Stylized UI. Custom animations. Everything will look sharper, cleaner, and way more intense. Expect screen-shaking, color-blasting bullet madness.
🌀 Full Roguelike Mechanics
From character builds to persistent upgrades, power-up synergies, and wild room events — the final game will be an endless bullet-dodging roguelike storm where strategy matters as much as reflexes.
🧍♂️ 6 Playable Characters
Each with their own powers, playstyles, ultimate abilities, and upgrade paths.
🌑 Story Mode & Endless Survival
Unravel the mystery of the Polygonic Realm or test your skills in infinite chaos.
🏆 Achievements. Unlocks. Secrets. Bosses. Waves.
You’ll earn every victory. You’ll remember every death. And yes — you’ll want just one more run.
This prototype is now set in stone.
There will be no updates, no expansions, and no patches to this version.
It is a legacy build — a glimpse into what could have been… and a tease of what will be.
So if you're here for the ride, strap in.
The next version of Polygonic Tempest is going to be faster, deeper, and way more chaotic.
Follow development. Share feedback. Survive the demo — and prepare for the real storm.
