Glow Loop
Read full descriptionHide full description
Glow Loop is a cosmic pattern-defense game where every level is a mandala waiting to be completed — and a target thieves want to steal from you. Drag glowing crystals onto the nodes of a growing mandala. Fill all three points of a slice and it locks forever. But thieves creep in from the dark, snatching unlocked crystals and nodes — swipe across them to wipe them out before they reach your core. Crash two matching crystals together in midair to trigger a Fusion — immense power, but it draws every thief on the board straight to it. Time it wrong and you'll regret it. Survive long enough and the ring in the corner fills — unleash a Supernova and clear the board in one blinding burst. • 200+ hand-tuned levels with a rising difficulty curve • A growing Cosmic Codex of constellations to collect • Passive powers and Workshop relics that carry across runs • No pay-to-win — progress is earned, not bought How long can you keep the pattern whole?
