Our take on The Polynomial - Space of the music

The focus on music-driven scenery and configurable presentation leaves less room for a conventional campaign structure. Combat shares the game with arena editing and a non-shooting exploration mode, so the experience is built around audiovisual variation rather than a single progression path.

What is The Polynomial - Space of the music?

The Polynomial is a 3D space shooter set in mathematical, fractal scenery that changes with music.

Players explore arenas, destroy enemies, protect allies, collect bonuses, and pursue scores. A non-shooting mode supports music-focused exploration, while an arena editor and generator allow custom spaces. The game includes 35 prepared arenas, four visualizer choices, adjustable visual and post-processing settings, and an editable playlist. Music options include a 50-minute original soundtrack, imported tracks and playlists, or microphone input. Support is also listed for joysticks, anaglyph 3D glasses, and common 3DTV formats. Polynomial 2 is identified as a separate Early Access title with additional modes, enemies, bosses, and optional VR support.
