Interesting concept, I really like the art (background characters are a treat haha) The game does need a bit more going on, but I like the direction you were going!
The character animation is terrific. I really mean that. Spot on with the theme too! Music was great. All in all... a great LD submission. Congrats :raised_hands:
I appreciate the mythological reference, but I suppose fruitless and monotonous tasks don't really make for fun experiences. I also found the visuals really discordant and messy - having the lovingly shaded pixel art sisyphus pushing a perfectly round boulder up a hill dotted with flat shaded, lower-res pixel art trees and vector-graphic rocks, with a unity skybox and yet more different resolutions of pixel art in the background really didn't work for me, it was pretty distracting. In any case, though, it's a huge achievement to get a game finished in such a short space of time, and I wish you luck on your future projects! Well done.
The background and art was so nice too look at (hehe) I got pushed down the hill often,resetting the progress. Was this intended? Could not "play" much here
Interesting game, like you the theme remind me the story of Sisyphe, and you used it to make an interactive experience for talking about metaphor on perseverance, life experience, social etc... that works fine ! Good work on it !
I guess we really are stuck in a loop with this one. The art is really pretty. What did you use to make the music?
I don't know if really matters, but I encountered some glitches when being pushed down. Sometimes I was not able to start to climb again for 5 or 6 seconds. And the grass seems to despawn when we go upper and we can see it respawn when we're down.
It's simple, but fun. A series of minigames with different mythological mini-scenes like could be a nice strange conceptual game.

@majadroid Unfortunately there is no solution for overcoming the loop :(
