About This Game

A battle pet that lives on your desktop.

Glims don't live inside a window. They walk along your taskbar, climb the edges of your programs, sit down, take naps and talk to each other while you work. When you call them, the game happens on your screen — not in a fullscreen window on top of it.

INVASION: DEFEND YOUR DESKTOP

A jade lawn assembles over your desktop and the invaders come in from the right, lane by lane. You plant your glims to hold them: swords hold the line up close, bow and magic hit from across the field. Cards drop onto the lawn mid-match and fly into your hand with one click. Every stage they come faster and tougher — how far can you hold?

THE DUNGEON, TWENTY FLOORS

Build a squad of up to three and go down. The fighting is automatic; the decision is the path: a normal fight, a well-paid elite, treasure with no fight, a campfire that heals. Every three floors a boss waits, and after it the only question that matters — walk away with the loot, or go one floor deeper? Whoever falls stays down, and anything not banked is lost.

THE TAVERN

A card game of combat. Cards are strikes with a force and a style, hands are combos named after dojo moves, and trinkets bend the rules. Each round is a challenger from the bestiary with health to break in a few plays.

TEN GLIMS TO COLLECT

Each with a card, stats and a way of fighting of his own. Weapons are real 3D models fitted into the hand — or stowed on the back, for those who fight with claws and magic. Swap them in the inventory and see the change on screen right away.

FREE, LIGHT AND OFFLINE

The game is free and runs without a connection. It's light, it stays on all day, and it never gets in the way of what you're doing.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Some of the 3D character models in Glims were made with the help of generative AI: reference art was produced with an AI image tool and turned into 3D meshes with Meshy. Every model was then cleaned up, re-rigged, animated and hand-tuned by us, and all game code, design, UI art and animation work is human-made. No generative AI runs while you play — nothing is generated live.
