Carry The Glass

Carry The Glass is a quirky and challenging co-op platforming adventure developed by Cagatay Demir and Enes Kaplan.

The premise is simple yet hilarious—two players take on the role of construction workers tasked with transporting a fragile glass window pane through colorful, obstacle-filled levels.



The Carry The Glass for PC game goal is to deliver the glass intact to its final destination, but the journey is anything but easy. Between realistic physics, communication demands, and unexpected obstacles, the game turns a basic task into an engaging test of teamwork and patience.

This indie title thrives on its co-op mechanics, providing laughs, frustration, and ultimately, a sense of accomplishment when you and your partner finally manage to deliver the glass unbroken.

Key Features

Two-player co-op gameplay: Designed primarily for multiplayer with a friend, either locally or online.

Fragile object transport: The central mechanic revolves around balancing and carefully carrying a glass panel through tricky paths.

Physics-based characters: Each character reacts realistically, making movement unpredictable and funny.



Difficulty modes: Choose between Normal (casual play), Hard (fewer checkpoints), and Impossible (no checkpoints).

Level variety: Explore settings like towering skyscrapers and challenging lighthouse climbs.

Bundle option: Available in a discounted bundle with “Little Wings Deliveries.”

User Interface

The user interface is straightforward and minimal. Menus are clean but not highly polished, with some players noting occasional responsiveness issues when using controllers.



The HUD during gameplay is intentionally sparse, letting the focus remain on communication and physics-based comedy. While not flashy, the UI does its job by keeping the experience functional and distraction-free.

Installation and Setup

Carry The Glass is distributed via Steam and installs quickly thanks to its lightweight 650 MB file size. Installation is hassle-free, and the game runs on most modern PCs with even modest specs.

Setup for online play involves hosting or joining a lobby with your Steam friends. Local co-op is also possible, but users have reported issues with certain controllers not being recognized consistently.

Players relying on keyboard-controller combinations tend to have a smoother setup.

How to Play

Once launched, players select a difficulty mode and level. You and your co-worker must lift and carry the glass pane, maneuvering it through narrow platforms, swinging hazards, or sudden drops.



The fragile nature of the glass means missteps can end in comedic failure, forcing you to retry from a checkpoint—or the beginning, depending on the mode.

The key to success lies in communication and coordination, as both characters must move in sync. Patience, timing, and a sense of humor are essential.
