How Glis Glis Began

Glis Glis started its existence in the hands of Eugen Štimac, a long-time games enthusiast. Even as a kid, since first grade elementary school, he filled notebooks with drawings of games and their modifications.

After working for global companies and two near-death experiences which made him understand life is short, Eugen went on to pursue his passion – producing high quality video games. It was always his dream to use local inspiration in his work, and thus the name for the company became Glis Glis, a Latin name for the European edible dormouse. His ancestors hunted the small rodent native to the region in Croatia where he lives, and so this became an homage to protect the species in the future.

With experience in very organized corporate world, coupled with double Masters in hand (IT and Electrical Engineering), he quickly became a go-to person for making any 2D game. Although still sometimes working on an occasional electrical engineering project, he ventured on to form a young, local and talented team of artists and programmers in this rising startup.
