Really good game feel well done, really addictive, I managed to do 38000 :). Congratulations !
Nice game! The strongest point of this game is the juice. Well done implementing the SFX and the pitch changing so it doesn't get repetitive. Although a very basic concept, the juice itself adds tons of enjoyment to it.
To expand on it and appeal to a PC market, it would be cool to add some sort of upgrades and meta progression between the run. If you're keeping it casual for the mobile audience, some art and modeling improvements woud help.
Good submission to the jam. Great job!
It's funnnn, tho.
It so satisfy when I rock them all. Nice game!
I like this game concept, it was really funny and pretty enjoyable. The Hermes shoes feels great, crashing through everything.
Funniest game i ever played
Fun idea, a bit random and maybe you could have use more of the screen for the game and change your window format.
Great game! I especially loved using Hermes Shoes, really fun to just fly around like that. Great job!
Funny meme, reminds me of Rock of Ages.
The fog is a bit thick, consider turning it down a bit.
Keep it up!

The struggle itself toward the heights is not enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus on meth.
What a wild ride ! It could have been fun to really see Sisyphus chase you as you roll down the path, but I guess it is a whole new scope with an animated character. But that's something to keep in mind for the next iteration, well done !
*Looks at play button and clicks* "Alright, probably just another runner. Oh, what is this? Hermes Sho-- WAAAA!!!" I think that is pretty much what I can say about the game. It is wild fun. I tried again so many times, it isn't funny. Pretty cool idea. I would've loved that the shoes are actual shoes but it is a jam game so all is good.
Overall, pretty nice little game. Yeah, the bug is annoying with the steering but no matter, it is still fun.
Good work!
SPEEEEEEED. I was not expecting that. The idea of playing as the boulder and non Sisyphus is creative. This could be a rock solid foundation
Lol, took me a while to realize sisyphus was hunting me. Like the idea. Those rock sounds were extra juicy. Difficultywise it was rather easy. (4,4,2,3,3)
Cool concept and satisfying rolling over stuff. The gameplay is a little bit simple, at first when i pressed play I didnt even touch my keyboard and got super far. Overall I like it
that speed is very crazy
pretty fun and unique, averall pretty good
I liked the Sisyphus theme. He caught up a lil too fast sometimes.
This Game is crazy but in a positive way :)
This is a very fun take on the endless runner genre, even if we aren't exactly running. It felt fun being launched into the air. I feel like there could've been more obstacle variety and powerups. Good game!
Thanks for playing. Of course, I already plan some powerups like Ares Helm and Zeus Thunder
I feel like this is basically RNG pachinko right now because there isn't enough the player can do to control the boulder. I think the main issue is how much of an impact absolutely everything in the path has on direction. If the boulder is heavy and has momentum I'm not sure it should get tossed to the side by a small jar to the extent that it does. That said, I like the concept and with some tweaks I think it could be fun. Although there is something entertaining about starting it and watching the boulder go right now, haha.
RNG pachinko is a hilariously accurate way to describe the current physics tuning. Yes, I put another 0 in the jar bounce force. Thanks for playing!
