Poly Peacocks

Fashion is subjective. Your friends are not.

--------------------------------------------------------

Poly-Peacocks is an online party game about building the most ridiculous outfit in the room and then being judged for it, in public, by everyone you know. You get a secret prompt, a pile of geometric shapes and a clock. Everyone else gets a front-row seat and a scorecard.

BUILD SOMETHING UNFORGIVABLE

Stack cubes, cones, stars and shards onto your mannequin and call it couture. Move, rotate, scale, recolor and fasten every piece to a body part, then stretch the body underneath until the proportions are a crime. Name your look before the timer runs out. Nobody sees it until you step onto the runway.

WALK IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT

Pick a pose, a strut and an entrance, then take the catwalk alone while the whole lobby watches your look get revealed for the very first time. Own it. Sell it. Try not to slip on the banana peel.

JUDGE, AND BE JUDGED

Everyone walks once and everyone judges once. Rate each Mannequin in the closing seconds of their strut secret ballot, no take-backs, no mercy. The best average rating is crowned THE PEACOCK OF THE SHOW and walks away with the feathers.

THE PLAYERS ARE THE SOUNDBOARD

Step into the lobby mic booth and record your own footsteps, poses and screams. Your mannequin is silent until you give it a voice and then the whole match hears YOU clattering down the runway. Proximity voice chat is built in, so the heckling comes from the right direction.

THREE SHOWS, ONE RUNWAY

The lobby votes on the night: SERIOUS FASHION on a neon marble runway, FUNKY CHAOS under the big top, or WILDCARD out in the junkyard. Each show reframes what "good taste" is even supposed to mean.

FLEX YOUR FASHION

Design your ultimate outfit in the main menu and show it off in the lobby! Goof around and flex on other players before the game begins. Outfits are lobby-exclusive, but trust the fashion because seeing a tiny mannequin in a cake suit running around is guaranteed to steal your heart.

THE HOST RUNS THE SHOW

• Set the design clock, the walk timer and the lobby size

• Flip on SWAP DRESS and make everyone strut in somebody else's disaster

• Warm up on the lobby disco floor or grab the backstage tug-of-war rope

• Save a polaroid of the winner and export a clip of the moment it all went wrong

Somebody is getting crowned tonight. It probably shouldn't be you.
