About GLIM

setting



This is an interactive team play game.

Deep down inside a dungeon lived a frightening dragon.
The dragon has not been able to sleep for many years because of all the noises coming from the above.
Longing for a peaceful good sleep, the dragon used the energy taken from the spirits of light and created monstrous creatures to guard the dungeon.
The dragon finally felt into death-like sleep but it didn’t last long as the power of light energy weakened and the noises of the world began to creep in again.
Unable to stand the noises, the dragon tried to suck the energy out of every light spirit it could find.

Fortunately, we could escape from the dragon. But unable to walk away from the suffering friends, we finally decided to return to the dungeon to save them all.
Deep in the darkest shadows of the dungeon, we must put our powers together to kill the dragon and rescue our friends…

Special functions



If the distance between the two players is too far from each other, the HP will lose its visibility. The visibility will be recovered as the characters get closer to each other. During a dash, the two players can create a destructive line that kills monsters and destroys crystals. Players can keep the track of each other's position and attack at a distance, or reduce the distance to restore HP.

"GLIM" is a mediocre 2-player co-op action game where you and another player (ha, there are no other players and if you ask your friends to play junk like this you soon won't have any) do some top down minigames and action/shooting/etc with a goal to "rescue your friends" from some pointless retro 2D dungeon. It really is a boring plod through a near-minimalist retro 2D hellscape. Also there's a gimmick where you die if you get too far from your "buddy". At least it's not completely pixelcrap. But it is close. The game is quite short, and can be run through in just 30 minutes. The lack of content here makes it hard to suggest it's worth spending the time to add to your library and download. The game features really lacklustre 2D visuals (does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?). Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs and the latest 3D graphics cards to play 2D games. Even mobile phones and game consoles can do 3D graphics now. There's no excuse. On the matter of pricing and value for gamers, most "free" games on Steam aren't really free. There's often nasty mobile app cash shops, or content locked behind DLC, or donat…

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
