Codename: Glaurung

Wake the worm. Survive the deep.

Glaurung is a subterranean action-survival game set in a collapsing world of molten tunnels and ancient, armored worms. Carve through scorched earth, manage heat and light, and outmaneuver a colossal apex predator that hunts by vibration. Built in Unity with a custom tunneling and destruction system.

Overview

Deep beneath a dying surface world, something has woken. Glaurung drops you into a network of unstable, lava-veined tunnels where every dig risks drawing the attention of the worm. Light keeps you alive but gives away your position; darkness hides you but slows you down.

Pillars

  • Tense vertical exploration through procedurally stitched tunnel systems.
  • A reactive apex predator that learns your habits and hunts by sound.
  • Resource and heat management that turns every excavation into a gamble.
