Before you start playing Polygonal Fury, turn down the volume. It's a fun game so I decided to cover it, but the soundtrack is grating, to say the least. I like electronica, but this game loops a short track of electronic music and repeats it over and over again. So turn down the volume (or disable the music in the game's Options menu).
Okay, now that you've done that you can actually enjoy the game, because it's quite nice otherwise. A bunch of shapes are floating around on the screen -- when you click a shape, something happens. Triangles shoot other shapes. Circles explode in place. Squares "ram" in one of four directions (up, down, left, right).
When a shape hits another shape, that other shape is triggered. So if I click a triangle and it shoots a circle, that circle would then explode. If the explosion catches a square, the square would "ram" another shape, and so on. Pretty soon, chaos erupts on the screen. Of course, you only get so many clicks per level (usually 3 or 4, at least in the beginning), so you need to make them count.
You can upgrade your weapons between levels; you get "upgrade points" based on your performance in the previous level. The upgrade points are saved between levels, so of course you can save up if you want to buy something bigger (such as the "double-damage" upgrade, which costs 10 points). All in all, it's a pretty neat game!
