8 itemsAbout the Game
Glow is a fast-paced action game in the spirit of the good old 80's & 90's 2D top-down shooters, presented in modern 3D graphics. You control a lone but brave Firefly, to help her fight evil spiders and critters that try to hunt you down.
But fear not, dying is not the end. The more you play, the more perks you can collect for your flying hero, which help you to get rid of even more enemies. Are you good enough to lead the global online leaderboard and become Glow world champion?
