Loved the VA- it's not something you often see in jam games so it took me by surprise! The music was nice too- very zen. 

I like how you incorporated the theme, but maybe it could've been made clearer in-game? I wouldn't have got it if I hadn't read the comments, and it explains some of the game mechanics. 

Anyway, it's a fun game overall. Nice work.

Thanks for playing! I agree about the theme/story. I will keep that in mind for the next jam and try to integrate the story more into the game.

Cute little game, I really liked the voice lines. Being a bit influenced by Parable of the Polygons, I do have to wonder why my triangle doesn't want to make friends with non-polygons, though (not to be taken too seriously).

I do have some issues when I run the game longer than a few minutes that it first starts to lag pretty badly and eventually crashes. My PC is relatively low-end, but this game feels simple enough that it should be able to handle it. Maybe you should look into your code and see if you have some sort of memory leak or something? Maybe I just need a new computer, though.

Thanks a lot! It’s a good question though and I have also been thinking about it ^^ In the case of the circles, the idea was that they are “perfect” (no corners) and that the triangle thus does not have enough courage to approach them. But with growing courage levels the circles will turn into polygons since the Triangle dares to look closer and sees that they are not perfect (that’s where the title is coming from).

I added the Spirals later since the game was too easy without a growing number of unfriendly entities. The “Story” is that the game happens after a pandemic and the Spirals denied getting vaccinated xD

I know the “story” is all over the place. I don’t really have much experience thinking about that part of a game.

About the lag: Can you tell me which build you were using? I will look into it.

Oh, the circles turning into polygons part is really clever! That completely went over my head, sorry. I'm not even sure if I'd like it to be more obvious, though. But yeah, maybe leaving out the spiral part would make things a little more consistent.

I'm using the most current Windows build. If there's anything else I can provide, let me know.

Simple and fun, I enjoyed that a lot. Props for voice acting and creative implementation of jam's theme
