We are no longer able to financially support Polygod and must close our business down. Because of this we will be removing Polygod from the Steam Store.

Hello Polygod Community!

We at Krafted Games wanted to give an update on where we disappeared to for the last few months. Fear not! We have not forgotten about you.

Over the last few months we have had our heads down working on getting Polygod ready for the Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. This unfortunately led to our wonderful Steam build getting neglected. However, this does not mean that Polygod development has been standing still.

The game has been continuously worked on in the interim with our team trying our utmost to get this game as balanced and polished as possible. Updates will be coming soon so we ask for a bit more patience.

Within the next couple of weeks we will be announcing a release date which we are extremely excited about seeing as it has been a 2 and a half year journey.

Thank you for being such a dedicated community! :)

Hey everyone!

Today's update is a rather small one with just a few fixes and one new feature: a seed-saving system. You can now save seeds that you like through the pause menu in-game, and the death screen. Your saved seeds are accessible in the Saved Seeds menu which is in the New Game menu.

We hope you find this addition useful. As always, any and all feedback is welcome!

Added Content

• Changed the altars in Level 7.

Hey everyone!

Today’s update has something special in store for any player who’s ever been curious about the strange little folk in the Polyverse…

That’s right, we’d added new NPC content!



Dr Dando, everyone’s favourite nutty Zoologist, has some new information about the creatures in Polygod, and if you’re lucky, a tale about the origins of Faceless the First. It turns out he’s quite a chatty guy.

Maya’s got some new musings, too, on her preferred topic of... you guessed it: FREEDOM! But will she ever actually be free as a bee? (Hint: yes. We game devs took pity on her and made it so.)

If you care to chat to the other NPCs, I’m sure you’ll spot a new line here or there, or perhaps a pun that would even make Faceless facepalm.



We've also changed the sizes of the levels: they no longer get bigger as you progress through the game. They're all the same size as the first level. Let us know how you find this change, as it will affect balance, difficulty and the time it takes to complete the game.

Have fun!

Just a small patch with some bug fixes and one small addition.

Bug Fixes

Added Content

• All blessings now add a part to your gun when bought.

Today's patch is quite a large one where we have fixed a few bugs, improved the balance of the game and added two special state blessings which cannot be bought and can only be achieved by meeting specific requirements. However we are very excited to introduce the new content and fixes to the community!








Blessed are the Meek is a blessings bestowed to you by Truth who will increase your damage if your are on a level with a particularly under-powered weapon. We implemented this change to balance for players who received unfair or unworkable seeds due to a lack of base fire power. this also allows players to ride out weaker builds to a later stage in the game where they can acquire the damage at which blessed are the meek will no longer be active.



Simple sinner was created to encourage hardcore player and speed runners. After beating the first Holy Champion certain Faceless Ones (namely faceless Ones who don't have any blessings) will feel empowered and this resolve and inner strength will weaken future Holy Champions. This means it is now possible to beat the entire game without buying any blessings, this is of course very difficult.
