Hexagony

Hexagony was created by me, Martin Büttner, in September 2015.

As far as I know it is the first two-dimensional programming language which operates on a hexagonal grid (instead of the usual rectangular grid). To make matters worse, opposite edges of the grid wrap around, making the topology of the source code a weird twisted torus. To make matters worst, the memory model is also a hexagonal grid, where each edge holds an integer value. Considering these things, I think the name (being a portmanteau of "hexagon" and "agony") is completely justified.

My prime checker and the Hexagony self-unfolder contain fairly detailed explanations of the language's quirks and show how to program in it.

GitHub repository. Includes interpreter (Ruby), language specification, example programs and issue tracker.
Esolangs page. Largely a copy of the README.md on GitHub.
Esoteric IDEEsoteric IDE by Timwi which contains another implementation (C#) and a graphical debugger (yep).
Hexagony Colorer also by Timwi. This is a tool which can be used to annotate execution paths in Hexagony source code. See this answer for an example of the result.
