Interesting take. So satisfying when the boulder fly off unexpectedly somehow. Well done you my boulder brother.

Fun Concept! I didn't like the fact that the boulder could fall of the map. I enjoyed chasing Sisyphus. Well done!

haha that was hilarious 

my boulder wasn't in a mood to catch Sisyphus though :D

maybe it would be more logical to say "press space to start" instead of "jump", as space doesn't necessarily means jumping :)

Developer

Oh, good suggestion. The reason we did it this way is because we didn't want to figure out how to switch the text based on whether or not you're using a controller. So we put all the controls in the description of the games itch page, and allowed you to start the game with Spacebar or the South face button on a controller

This is ridiculous. And I love it!

Also 3D + procedural generation? You have my respect. 

P.S. who did the Sisyphus voice acting? :P
