at the same time. Glow Blocks are only present in dark and murky areas such as caves or Ghost Houses. They can also be used as a projectile, by throwing the to the enemies, in similar fashion to Super Mario Bros. 2's physics.
In addition to normal-sized Glow Blocks, bigger moving varieties also appear.
