Hey, everyone! We’re beyond thrilled to share some incredible news: Polyaris has been named one of the "Top 60 Upcoming Games Announced Last Year" by Gameranx, securing a spot in the top 50! What’s even more mind-blowing? We’re ranked just above Sid Meier’s Civilization VII!
For the three of us—just friends working on Polyaris after our 9-to-5s—this feels like summer. We’ve been building this game fueled by late-night brainstorming sessions, too much coffee, and a shared love for gaming. To see our project recognized alongside industry giants is something we never expected, but it’s a moment we’ll never forget.
We're so proud to be on the list and to know that there's still a press that doesn't sell slots but makes human-like tops. Absolute respect for this team and channel!
