How does your game fit the theme?
The game is about enduring the endless aproach of Sisyphus, a man who is destined to never stop rolling his rock and so you as Zeus are tasked with holding him back in an never ending loop of keeping him off.

I found myself often waiting for an item to drop and before i could throw it again, the ball healed what it had lost. A button to drop an item without throwing would might be a good idea (or bad, depends on your game design). So i can prepare few items and then htrow them at once.
You made Zeus a new Sisyphus! Good job!
Sisyphus is happy with that! :D
Took a bit of time before I understood how to play, but I really like the theme!
Wish there was a bit more depth to the gameplay besides walking back and forth and just throwing it mindlessly down the stairs.
as someone who likes greek mythology i love this, its a bit hard though since any of these items shoulda pushed sisyphus back to the bottom, but its a fun idea
Art looks good!
How do you cast lightning?
Click E to grab items and click the left mouse button to throw a held item :)
