Glover Returns To PC This April With “Completely Redone” Port

Piko Interactive has resurrected a long-dormant platformer mascot that we haven’t seen in nearly two decades. Glover, everybody’s favourite hand, is returning to Piko Interactive’s Twitter account.

Piko’s Glover port is scheduled to release on April 20th for PC. The source code from the Nintendo 64 version of Glover has been “completely redone”. Complete with six worlds and 30 total stages, players will puzzle their way through Glover by changing the titular character’s form and the properties of magic crystals disguised as rubber balls to navigate and clear each level. 

Originally released in 1998 for Nintendo 64 and PC, with a PlayStation port a year later, Glover was a creation of the Oliver Twins, a duo of prolific British game design brothers who formed the now-defunct Interactive Games. Now, 24 years later, will this new version allow the glove to get the love some think it deserves? In just over one month, we’ll find out.
