Super Hexagon is an indie arcade action video game developed by Terry Cavanagh, with music composed by Chipzel. Originally released for iOS in September 2012,[2] versions for Windows and macOS were released three months later, and Android, BlackBerry and Linux versions followed in early 2013.[3][4]

The game is based on an earlier prototype by Cavanagh, simply titled Hexagon,[5] which was created for a twelve-hour game jam in early 2012.
