Glover is a quirky 3D platformer that has you maneuvering a magical glove (named Glover) that bounces, rolls, and manipulates a rubber ball through complex levels. The unusual premise and physics-based challenges deliver a unique twist on the genre, yet sometimes frustrating controls and occasionally tedious puzzle design can hinder the enjoyment. While visually charming with a playful soundtrack, Glover might not suit everyone's tastes due to its demanding difficulty curve.

I enjoy the idea of this game way more than I enjoy playing it. All the control / level issues make the game much harder than it was probably supposed to be - a great game to watch other people play, especially speedrunners who actually know how to break the game in their favour, but I won't ever play it again myself.

Had never beaten this game before.
Was goooood, but had a lot of level designs issues.
I think I like its ideas and its confidence more than playing it.

Admirable attempt on an original platforming concept at the time but just didnt work for me, too frustrating for it's own good, willing to give it another try and will re-review if that time comes, I do like the tone and character of Glover however

glover has been pissing me off since 1998

the liminal fever dream environments and novel charm found in its experimental qualities deserves credit in its own merit but even something that has Glover in the title cannot properly convey the rigorous fisting session you will receive upon directly engaging with the control scheme combined with the often atrocious level design and as such is best experienced vicariously through someone else
