Our take on Glyph☀️
Players looking for progression systems may bounce off when they realize there are no levels or bonuses to improve the mech-scarab. Those who struggle with precision movement may hit the wall during the 30 time trials, where faster and more controlled platforming is required.
What is Glyph☀️?
Glyph is a physics-based adventure platformer about a mech-scarab and Anobi, its guide, rebuilding an ancient civilization buried beneath desert sand.
Movement includes jumping, double-jumping, smashing, and gliding. Progress comes from improving control of these abilities rather than gaining levels or bonuses. The game contains more than 80 levels with secrets to find, puzzles to solve, routes to plan, and customizable cosmetics. Thirty time trials add timed challenges focused on platforming skill. Players can explore at their own pace while combining movement abilities with the environment. Glyph also includes an original soundtrack and supports speedrunning.
