About this game

You are flying through some sort of weird wire-frame cyber-land. It's your job(?) to destroy the various Platonic solids and other shapes that stand in your way, without running into a wall or an enemy.

I wrote all the 3D rendering code for this myself after taking a computer graphics course in college!!! However, the 'glow' effect on HTML canvas can be very slow. So if it runs slow for you, you can press Q to make it run better.

Also, there are powerups and stuff! My high score is like 10 thousand something? Anyway, enjoy.

(note: the text rendering doesn't work properly on mac due to single-line fonts being rendered differently on that platform... sorry about that. i made this game a long time ago.)
