Hyperbolica

Pretty alright exploration game, with some fun NPC's and some decent puzzles/minigames. The main focus is how the world is very non-euclidean, and how you'll manage to do your tasks while the world wraps and bends around you in some crazy ways. However, I didn't find it too memorable when compared with other games that tried the same. And it feels a little nauseating sometimes (specially if you try the VR mode). But overall, I'd still say Hyperbolica is a nice short experience. It's not a mind-blowing game, but it did make my mind go in circles, in a good way.

Finally, I can actually experience non-Euclidean space instead of just looking at the formulas. I learned about non-Euclidean and differential geometry in Leonard Susskind's General Relativity course. Despite Susskind's attempts to make it as grounded as possible, all I could learn about these strange geometries were the mathematical formulas. Until I played this game, I couldn't really see or experience non-Euclidean geometry.

It was a fun game. It doesn't really explain the hyperbolic space, though it does attempt to, so if you want to actually understand it, you better watch the video on YouTube. It still was fun to experience something unusual.

View+idea was nice, game was boring.

0/10 doesnt thank me for playing
