Wow, it's really unfortunate that this game is missing a WebGL build; it could easily be one of the top games.

You did a tremendous job with the movement in the game; it was really polished.

Also, the animations are great, simple, but great. I found the overall gameplay kind of easy. I wish there were more 'tanky' enemies, and maybe some environmental hazards, like spikes or pitfalls, so we would need to utilize the mobility more.

On linux: was able to follow the steps from Ross to play it
- Get Linux and Mac zip files
- extract the mac zip
- navigate into it to the resources folder (macos/The Sisyphean Chamber.app/Contents/Resources/)
 - grab the .pck file, put it with the linux file and make sure they are both named the same (I used The Sisyphean Chamber.pck and The Sisyphean Chamber.x86_64)

Fun game! I got to wave 18 with Katana, and spiderman crawling up the walls with Fists is just fun

Unfortunately I couldn’t play it >.< A bit upsetting because I like the story of Sisyphus and I’m a big roguelike fan.

The Linux download complained about a missing pck file, but I’m persistent.

I was able unzip the mac game, and (with the command line) cd into The Sisyphean Chamber.app/Contents/Resources , and copying a Godot executable into the same folder, renaming it to The Sisyphean Chamber. This might work on Windows too?

The game itself: I was able to jump around and kill enemies, and that was fun, but I wasn’t sure if there was any way out of that first level.

I admire your effort to play the game
