I love a good puzzle game and this one...rocks! I read the instructions but I still didn't really understand how to play the game properly until several failures. The overall thematic of this game is fantastic! The presentation and gameplay captures the Sisyphos greek myth. I love that "ROCK DROPPED" screen. His look of anguish definitely matched my after my double digit attempts.
I'm not sure if it was intentional, but once I realized you could move backward, it made the game much less challenging. I was beginning to think some sections were impossible until I realized I could step back without losing balance. I don't think this is mentioned in the instructions, and I would definitely recommend including it.
Hi, thank you for playing my game and for organizing the jam! I'm happy you enjoyed it :) You're right about moving backwards not being clear in the instructions, I'll update them.
This was a neat game! Didn't get very far with it, but I had a lot of fun. You really planned out the mechanics of this very well!
Thank you for playing! :D
great thinking with the concept of the game really makes you try and think ahead! and props for creating everything yourself it may not be the cleanest but It really works with the game and shows a lot of effort!
Thank you for your feedback! I'm happy you liked it.
Really unique concept! Enjoyed the gameplay, though it was surprisingly tough...
I'm glad you liked the idea, thank you for playing :) I was trying to make the game challenging but fair
cool game! I like how you have to keep your balance, it adds a bit of strategy to an otherwise simple game mechanic.
It's not the prettiest looking game, but props for making everything from scratch! With some polish, it would make a cool mobile game!
Thank you :) Yeah, the visuals are certainly not the strongest part. I wanted to challenge myself and that's why I decided not to use any preexisting assets.
As a fan of mythology, I love the idea!
A simple concept yet addicting,
A random map generator will be great tho
Thank you! At first I wanted to have more varied, randomly generated levels, but ultimately I didn't have the time to design a generator. The map should be a little bit different each time you play it, but it's true that it does get repetitive after a while
