Great soundtrack! Can you tell me the names of the songs?
Thank you so much Arnavvations. :) The songs are, unfortunately, both unnamed and unreleased for now. BUT I promise to get in touch when they are released.
A really fun and unique platformer with a wonderful soundtrack that fills you with a sense of wonder and adventure and a beautiful art style that you can spend a great deal of time soaking in.
The gameplay style is intuitive and fluid with unique mechanics that become available to you as you play (won't spoil the surprises here, but you can see some in the video).
The only minor downsides i found were that it was hard to judge momentum whilst you are in the air or when landing (might just be me) and also it would of been nice to have an introduction to the "ball/scarab" like why has it come to life? what has caused the origin of this adventure? ( could be a work in progress though)
Overall the game is insanely fun and very enjoyable and it will be very interesting to see what else is in store for what is a very promising game.
Awesome! Thank you so much!
I featured Glyph in my top free itch games of the week! I really liked the character controller and can't wait for more updates!
Cool, thanks! We're very happy about that. Perhaps also join our discord to stay up to date. :) https://discord.gg/ua7CS4p /Ras
