Review: Glyph (Steam & Switch) - Defunct Games

[@manifestationnation]

I tried the demo for this game and loved it, bought it on Steam release. The feeling of speed and air movement is perfect, it's super chill and relaxing even when I'm dying over and over.

[@playglyph3309]

Haha, thank you so much for buying the game - means the world to us! You comment is a month old, so hopefully you're able to die less now! It is a difficult game. Otherwise, visit our discord for friendly chatter + tips and tricks.

Cheeky bit of Sonic 3 Ice Cap playing in the background :)

[@samuelc6246]

Non violent 3d movement, fun to control, easy to enjoy visually, physics based movement with just enough control, daring and challenging parts but not unforgiving... Sounds exactly like what I love about Snake Pass, or Snowrunner. On sale for 2€ now, aaaaand SOLD!

[@KLW79]

I bought this just recently and love it and it was 90% off it was a steal indeed

[@JenMistress]

This does look like fun. May have to check it out. As for the question, may have to go with Super Mario 3D World. The fact that you can play the game as Princess Peach is plus for me. Use to always pick to play her in Super Mario Bros 2 on dad's old NES, so was an extra treat for me having that choice there.

[@playglyph3309]

Hi Mistress Jen, I hope you've had a chance to try it - if not, again, we have a demo out on both switch and steam. Hope to see you there!

[@AOTLTng]

Man this game looks oddly wholesome and cute. i'll put it in my wishlist. thanks for the review. it looks fun. i don't really have a favourite 3d Platformer tho so- yee

[@playglyph3309]

Thanks for wishlisting us! I hope we'll be your first favourite platformer then ;)

[@jat2319]

This reminds me of Kula World and Unbox: Newbies adventure rolled into one. Great review. Thanks.

[@playglyph3309]

We've heard that before! And bakugan and metroid morph ball, journey, portal, marble madness even...

[@Kcalien]

Agreed I love how you can climb the walls if you miss your jump!

[@playglyph3309]

I agree (unsurprisingly perhaps).:The wall climbing is tummy-tickling funny imo. When you launch off the top of a wall the momentum propels you way up, and that is where I clench my toes.

[@cyberpunknut1099]

This looks cool. Kept wondering how you were going to not die in the video but saw you could navigate to stuff. Looks like it's pure platforming and no attacking and making the bosses do it themselves. QOTD, Mario galaxy 2 though this can change is I spend more time with Mario odyssey or something else comes along.

[@playglyph3309]

Hi Cyperpunknut, thanks for showing interest in our game. I'm glad you think it looks worthwhile! Check us out on Steam, we just uploaded a new gameplay trailer with our own how-to-play commentary.

[@sfbsfb]

Fantastic review Cy, makes me eager to play this. QOTD - apologies for the boring/basic answer, but in recent years, I’ve enjoyed Super Mario Odyssey a lot. Watching your footage of Glyph reminded me of the desert level in that SMO. To me, SMO feels like a real successor to (and evolution) of Super Mario 64. Nothing at all against the Galaxy games, those just feel and play differently.

[@playglyph3309]

I hope you 've had a chance to try it. Otherwise, download our demo on Steam or Switch. The third demo-level is the best imo.

[@steelcurtain187]

This looks like a fun one and different too

[@playglyph3309]

Thank you! Try our demo on Switch or Steam - try out those awesome controls for yourself :)

[@DrUmz2]

Oh it seems that I need more space on mz switch :D Qotd: not my favorite, but I have to say that I had a LOT of fun with new super Lucky's tale. And in one of your reviews I saw "Voodo Vince" and fell in love with the world and characters

[@playglyph3309]

You need to immediately delete 2,4GB worth of games and install Glyph! :) Or, you can just try the demo - that is quite a bit smaller. Have fun.

[@DrUmz2]

@@playglyph3309 The game wasn't available in the German e-shop, but now its back :)

[@barry-allenthe-flash8396]

Man, what is going on atm? I've noticed a couple of these obstacle course-style 3D Platformers coming out lately - not just Monkey Ball Banana Mania, but... _*checks Microsoft Store right now_ Orbals, Gelly Break Deluxe, and Orbibot all dropped in the past two weeks. Plus I Am Fish is coming up and Skully dropped earlier in the year. I'm a fan of this subgenre of 3D Platformers, and maybe even Mail Mole counts as well... I guess I should actually nab one or two more of these to support the recent influx then :P If Glyph hits Xbox or Playstation, I'll add it to the list of ones to check out!

[@DefunctGames]

Mail Mole just had a bunch of new free DLC, which I hear is pretty good. I keep getting emails about Orbibot, perhaps I should check it out.

[@playglyph3309]

Glyph could be moving to Playstation and Xbox at some point, no promises yet, but we are talking with other consoles atm. Thanks for mentioning those other games - it can be a bit difficult to figure what games players such as yourself consider competition for glyph. I'm going to give those titles a look and maybe get inspired :) Thx again.

[@peterhalliday6492]

Im enjoueing super mario 3d world co-op at the mo

[@mayday-tz4dv]

Just got this free thanks to an eshop sale and coins.

[@lepinkainen]

Hey, is it a THING with youtube that forces you to not include a link to the Game in question, or do you just not care?

[@DefunctGames]

I'm open to the suggestion that I should include a link to the game, if that's what you're trying to say. I tend to not do that, since I'm frequently dealing with console games that have multiple links depending on the country you're in.
