Go outside and pollinate the places you move through. The map will light up, flowers will take root and your garden will grow. Along the way, your community will pick up your pollen and you'll pick up theirs, carrying it three streets, or an ocean. Even when you don't go far, your pollen does. Together, you'll take pollen to new places, creating a connection bigger than your own steps. EXPLORE A NEW MAP EVERY WEEK Weekly city maps, and monthly adventures that run bridge to bridge, hilltop to hilltop, trail end to trail end. Discover new locations, grow them from sprouts into flowers and climb the Leaderboard as your garden flourishes. New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, Seattle, and Philadelphia are live now, with more places and maps to come. WAKE UP TO WHERE IT WENT Every morning, your Reveal shows what happened after your pollen left you: the locations it reached, the rides it hitched and the distance it travelled. Sometimes three streets. Sometimes an ocean. Then put your map knowledge to the test by guessing one place it reached. SEND IT FURTHER Leave your pollen where the world moves and more hands can carry it. Learn how your community flows, and your reach gets bigger than your route. PLAY WHAT YOU'VE GROWN Every pollinated location joins your Garden. Make music from it, play a memory challenge, revisit the map and keep exploring until the whole map is flowering. KEEP THE STORY Every Monday, Pollen sends you a postcard of its adventure. Your Passport keeps the places, journeys and completed maps that made the adventure yours. YOU DECIDE WHEN IT MOVES Pollen uses location during a session you start yourself, including while your phone is in your pocket. Stop with one tap and Pollen stops recording. The game protects other players' precise locations and routes while still showing how everyone helps the world grow.

About

Godot Cartesian

Features
Read full description

Godot Cartesian is a jumping game drawn on a chalkboard. The whole world is a Cartesian coordinate system in white chalk on black slate — and you are a little stick figure starting from the origin. HOW TO PLAY • Hold to charge, release to jump — every jump is a parabola • The area enclosed by your curve and the x-axis is your score in real time • While charging, a ghost curve and its predicted area grow live: watch the integral climb, then let go OBSTACLES & RULES • 20 levels unlocked one by one, with 12 geometry shapes joining progressively: rectangles, segments, triangles, parallelograms, circles, ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas, sine, cosine, logarithmic and reciprocal curves • Only sharp corners steeper than 75° are lethal — every deadly face is clearly textured; smooth curves are always safe to ride • Walk straight up gentle slopes, launch off curved ones, bounce off floating lines, and keep jumping from obstacle tops FEATURES • Area is score: calculus you can feel • Chalkboard art: pure black, white lines, hand-drawn charm • Best score per level, sequential unlocks, auto-saved progress, fully offline Start from a box, finish on a reciprocal curve. The blackboard awaits.
