Cardboard cutout style of graphics is pretty cool. It was pretty chill actualy and didn't get annoying before music ended. Unusual entry for sure
Great graphics, but as many others have said a single mechanic that doesn’t reward the player is not enough… Apparently it is “supposed to be annoying” to reflect the story of Sisyphus but I don’t think most people play games to be annoyed or bored :/ Still appreciate the effort that went into this though, it feels really polished, even the itch page.
I like the style, but spamming space isn't enough as gameplay. Let's say there's a basic mechanic that you can then add content to. Keep working on it.
This game is a space bar braker found myself smacking space with all my fingers. Got to 6 spaces/s. The artwork is great, love the itch.io page too.
Beautiful artwork!
cool game I love the art
Nice game! Sadly the only thing that happened to me during my 4-5 minute journey was the main character wondering if they forgot to lock the door (or something like that). I also really liked the art and the concept behind doing an endless task in relation to the theme!
Awesome artwork for the characters. I was pushing the boulder for a couple of minutes, and the most interesting thing I found was some water and a soul. It might've benefited from the content being a bit less spread apart, but overall it's decent!
The art is very cool and creative, but I lost the boulder before anything interesting could happen, unfortunately.
The art is phenomenal!
One must imagine Sisyphus happy... Cool concept and amazing art!
Loved the popsicle art style and character designs, very creative.
