Ratings and reviews

Definitely one of my favorite games. It doesn't require a large time commitment, and it doesn't require any critical thinking. Mainly it's about pattern recognition. I mainly play the Steam version, but the Android version is good too. The Android Version is a little bit harder mainly because of having to use touch controls and the smaller screen size. Would like to see Android TV support and other input methods in the future.

I wish I could play this game I spent money on, yet it hasn't been available to me in years. Fortunately I can play it on my PC, but I'm not able to download it on my phone and it doesn't even show up in search results when looking for it. My old, 5-star review: I love it for the challenge and the music. My 2 year old loves it for the music and mashing the screen. :) Works like a charm on my galaxy nexus. Great with sixaxis+ps3 controller+GameKlip. It has gamepad support, but I like mapping to buttons over using the thumbstick.

Super Hexagon is a brutal brutal game, but that's just the way I like it. A frantic "hope you have good reflexes" arcade game that is designed around that purpose and that purpose alone. The graphics are good (for what it needs to be) and the controls are simple. The music is catchy (if you can't survive long enough to listen to it, go get the soundtrack) and has a good beat to it. If I had to voice one complaint, it would be this, minor as it is (and as minor as it is it will not detract from my 5★ rating): the game doesn't really ease you in, and there's no way to practise the segments you're bad at without randomly falling on them in the normal stages. Aside from that, though, the game is (in my opinion) flawless. Then again, perhaps it's that "diving-head-first-into-a-three-foot-deep-pool" insanity that makes the game as fun as it is. In the end, though, the question you're probably asking is "Should I buy this?" and the answer I personally feel is appropriate is "Yes. For the (normal, not-on-sale) asking price you can't possibly go wrong."
