A screen-grab of the use of the term glitches by GOD at the conclusion of an alpha test-session "nekkid party" on 11 February, 2011
The demonym "Glitches" has arguably become the de facto standard of what the inhabitants in the World of Glitchworld of ''Glitch'' are referred to as, and was a term used in-house by the developers of the game [1]. It was also the term frequently used by GOD in-game during global message broadcasts - usually preceded by the adjective tiny, i.e., "...my tiny Glitches." The next most popular name during alpha-testing seems to have been Glitchizens.
As there seems to be no de jure standard for plurally describing the avatars within Glitch, those that have been debated are:
- Glitches
- Glitchicons
- Glitchizens
- Glitchren
- Glitchen
- Glitchers
- Glitcheranians
- Glitchudlians
- Glitchitants
- Glitchiputians
During Alpha testing, many testers went through "Glitchdrawal" when the game was not online.
