Overview

About Glyph

A mechanical monster has devastated the nation and poisoned the land.
In Glyph, you snatch a fractured civilization from the jaws of doom after runaway technology has destroyed everything.
But safe ground is rare in this dying world.
The desert sands are toxic and destruction has left few places to rest...
So the last shred of hope is for you to collect the resources that will restore life to your home.
“You WILL find yourself gasping for air and curling your toes as you make monumental leaps across the desolation.”
“Exquisite game design entices you to keep trying, exploring, and growing.“
“Glyph gives you a deep-felt sense of achievement.”
“Thoughtful. Magical. It’s the kind of game they don’t make anymore.”
“You will feel calm, challenged, and entirely swept away to a distant land.“
“The soundtrack? It’s mesmerizing.”
“It’s the kind of game no one makes anymore.”
Glyph is lovingly designed to ensure a heart-thumping thrill ride that rewards bold moves and soaring leaps.
An expert homage to history’s best games.
And it’s due to a masterful (and easy-to-miss) detail that has been added to the classic recipe for amazing platformers...
Glyph offers a unique combination of movement types coupled with the ability to fine-tune your momentum at ALL times…

Even while you’re in the air!
That ensures a one-of-a-kind platforming experience that has no peers today.

You can: dive, climb, roll, twist, crash, edge, skid, glide, sneak, scale, and corkscrew your way through an adventure with movement-based puzzles you can’t get anywhere else.
In addition:
Painstaking design makes certain that every single level offers something fresh.
There is never a dull moment in Glyph.
Every single one of the 80+ beautiful and expansive levels contain secret unlocks for you to recover - if you can find them.
That means the adventurous gamer has plenty of things to discover.
And for those who crave adrenaline...
Glyph ALSO offers 30 heart-thumping, seat-gripping time trials for you to razor-hone your skills.
To make Glyph accessible for casual players and speedrunners alike, Glyph’s non-linear level selection has been designed such that you don’t have to complete every level to finish the game.
That way you’re not stuck with a level that’s too difficult for you. But here’s the thing...
(And that thing is part of what makes Glyph irresistible to SO many people.)
When you DO return to a challenging level…
And you suddenly find yourself able to finish it…
You’ll join the ranks of many players before you who say the same thing about Glyph:
It REALLY makes you feel accomplished.
Players return to Glyph again and again.
Unable to stop replaying their favorite levels over and over...
