How does your game fit the theme?
The "Loop" theme is established in the continuous action of the protagonist to be on top of his enormous ball of trash and loop around it to avoid falling and finish it's job.

The music in this one is so fun! The idea is really creative too, and learning how to balance the character is certainly a skill that I slowly learned while playing, which is always fun! Good job!
Cool game! The gameplay is engaging and just the right amount of infuriating, haha. I would have liked more feedback on the falling mechanic though, like animation or sfx, because many times it felt random whether Sisyphus would fall or keep rolling.
The cartoon art style is great too! But maybe there could be other types of trash so they don't all look like black goo. So much trash... The poor guy really deserved that vacation.
Very good package: simple but fun mechanics, cute art, catchy music. Well done!
Yaaay! thanks for the review!! Happy that you liked it! :D
The concept is great! i loved the artsyle and music choices - i'd love some more cartoony soundeffects too!!
my biggest problem is having no indication of when i'm about to fall, having to be extra carefull kinda takes away the fun of this type of game
really great game, fun mechanics and level design!
amei demais <3<3
Muito obrigado!!! (/âăźâ)/
Gostei bastante da sugestão de efeitos sonoros! Falei em alguns comentårios, mas a gente também achou q ficou faltando um feedback visual pra quando estivesse perto de cair. Infelizmente n deu tempo de implementar ;___;
Push that Dang!
Very cute game :) The visuals and audio blend really well!
Game-play wise - it would help me a lot if there was some indicator of when I'm close to falling, as it wasn't visually obvious. But overall - great work, Sisyphus!
Hell yeah!! Thanks for playing, we are happy you liked it!
I couldn't agree more with you, and it's our main priority after the jam. One would expect Sisyphus to react when falling XD
Loved the concept and the art style. Very clever. I found the controls a bit unforgiving and wasn't alway sure why I'd fallen off. That's just nit picking. Over all I thought it was great. Well done!
Thanks for playing and for the feedback! We are working on a way to warn the player they are about to fall and are confident it will help with the falling issue :v
Such a cute and fun art style, with good playability. It's humorous and cheerful to play, making people want to keep playing. The level design is also well-executed. This is a perfectly done game jam game, 100% recommended â€ïž
OMG! Thank you so much!! \(ToT)/
The team and I are so happy to hear that! We are really proud of this project and are looking forward to start the next one âĄ
Really fun game and fun concept, the difficult curve is really good
Thank you so much!! Sisyphus shaw be proud (àčËÌ”áŽËÌ”)ï»
Really fun game and fun concept, the difficult curve is really good
Awesome game! I really like all the ways the levels added more challenge to such a simple concept.
We are o glad to hear that!! We tried to make every level offer a new twist :DD
Definitely takes a good technique to keep balance, Nice work getting so many levels done!
Thanks for playing them!! I wish we had made even more \TOT/
Shockingly the first platformer I've played all Jam! I really like the unique concept! Frustrating but kept me coming back for more!
I'd say some kind of 'balance bar' (like in the Tony Hawks) games could be handy as I found on larger balls of trash I struggled to tell how off balance I was.
Also when the level ends sometimes my bug would fall off the trash during the transition so I'd get an overlap of music and gameover tune at the same time XD
Still a really good game, with some extra polish you could have quite a unique full blown physics platformer right here!
Thank you so much for the feedbacks!! Happy you were hooked with the challenge (/âăźâ)/
Regarding the balance feedback, we get you! Our plan is to add a visual feedback after the rating fase of the jam, so the players know when they are "in danger". We are thinking a unbalanced animation could help wonders hahah
About the music bug... that's a new one lol we are gonna look into it! Debugging tiiime :D
Really tricky platformer with a unique theme and aesthetic, one must imagine sisyphus is well paid for his service.
Great job on this!
We guarantee that he is!! I mean... he is the only
manbug or the job XDI mean I think it's ready to release for a mobile game!
Great game!
Glad to hear that!! (/ToT)/
Almost shot my pc and that fucking bug. GOTY only.
NGL... favorite comment yet.
I loved the aesthetic and the vibes. The handcrafted feels
It was a bit unforgiving sometimes but the upbeat vibes kept me going :) Great entry
Thank you so much!! And thanks for the feedback! We are aiming to do some small polishing after the competition (^o^)

This was fun! And a bit infuriating! I enjoyed rolling around my little ball of trash and was pleasantly surprised by the introduction of the slime mechanic halfway through. I just wish I got to see my kids by the end
(Ah, e eu acho que a gente se conheceu na Gamescom! CoincidĂȘncia doida a gente fazer joguinho pra GMTK com exatamente o mesmo tema fjhsdlkgjsdlkgj)
OMG! That's amazing!! I need to play your game ASAP \(ToT)/
Thanks for the feedback as well! We are working on a satisfying conclusion for our hard-working dad bug as well as fine tuning the level design đ
