‘Gleam of Fire’ Review ? Holy Impostor Batman, it’s a Platformer with Great Potential



Gleam of Fire($3.99) is the first mobile game for developer Su Min Kim, who is obviously someone who knows how to make a spectacular entrance. If you have any questions about the game head over to our forums where the developer is happy to answer and listen to your feedback- Always something we love seeing. The premise of the game is simple, its nothing more than an adventure platformer, but that’s ok because it is a very good platformer and doesn’t need any fancy gimmick to draw the player in. You move through each level lighting torches with your arrow. Game play is easy to pick up, you walk horizontally in any direction and jump or drop down vertically to move from layer to layer. You have a normal attack, special attack and dodge, helping you move through obstacles and monsters. The game itself however, is not so easy, be warned, you are going to die, a lot. Every death sees you starting the current level from the beginning and doing the whole thing again, which can become a little frustrating, especially if you could see the end of the level before you died. You have no choice but to keep trying and ?git gud?. A lot of the game play relies very heavily on timing, one moments delay, one movement too early, and you will be taking damage. The only real issue within Gleam of Fire is for a game which relies so heavily on the timing, the movement of the hero can be a little awkward.

The right touch controls work well, you can jump attack and dodge with no issues...
