Making a platformer is a tricky business. It’s rare that anyone gets it right the first time around, let alone crafts something that rivals some of the best in the business. But that’s precisely what *Glyph* does. It iterates on classic mechanics and combines them with deviously clever level design to create something utterly divine.

You play as an ancient ball-like scarab called Glyph. There’s a quest of sorts, but a lot of it is window dressing for finding knick-knacks and opening new levels as you rebuild your home.

It’s an intoxicating mix of hard-as-nails platforming and chill exploration that’s easy to recommend for anyone who likes games. This is platforming done so pure it reminds me why I love the art form in the first place.
