Polybius @_@

Post by Technos72 » Wed Jun 23, 2010 12:42 am

Found this just now.

Polybius is an arcade game with an URBAN LEGEND.

If this legend is true, you shall NEVER stare at the game's visuals. There are trippy backgrounds, subliminal messages, and several bad side-effects, and I felt funny just by looking at it for less than a minute.

Nothing else to say here. But this video has the rest of the info.

It started with an urban legend. The original game does not exist. Whatever you see is a recreation and it's not going to do what the urban legend says it will. Still, it IS potentially seizure-inducing in places, so if you have epilepsy, watch out.
Rest in peace, Kym. I hardly knew ya.
Rest in peace, Marinus. A bright star, you were ahead of me on my own tracks of thought. I miss you.

*slaps himself on cheek*

okay so it's only the recreation available. I got confused with the comments below. But it's kinda better not to play. I don't know if I have epilipsy.
