Polybius is a lost arcade game dating back to around 1981. Featuring rapid-paced levels similar to bullet hell-type games, it had incredible visuals that allegedly caused various side effects in players, even taking several lives.
This game is based on the myth, aiming to create a playable version inspired by the original story and the well-known main menu screenshot from the game.
