How to make the Sun Rise
The Battle of Polytopia Guide
Another of the hidden 'easter egg' tricks in Polytopia is the sunrise background. It also unlocks the Sunbringer Achievement. The sunrise effect will change the normal dark and star dotted background of the world view in your game to the pink / yellow effect that is similar to the apps home page.
To activate the change you just need to tap and hold on the dark back ground while playing for at least 15 seconds. after doing this the sunrise background will slowly fade in. If you don't already have the sunbringer achievement then it should unlock for you.
You ca nrepeat this process again and the background will alternate between an orange/yellow hue and the pink/yellow fade that you have just made appear.
