Thx for playing. The restart button exists, it’s in the description.

thxxx! You too as well! 

Very nice game, I like the concept! I had also thought of something similar 

you don’t have to jump with the rock! You leave the rock go to the other side & use the lava geyser (when it’s off) to cross the pit! It’s a small puzzle.

i also had a similar game idea and it is indeed very fun! Nice submission!

this game is five stars in every aspect for me. this is the kind of game I should be playing more. I really loved it, congrats

Really liked the gameplay and the artstyle (I wouldn't be able to do it myself btw). Great submission!

Thxxx took me time to code it. Your game is also a fun surprise! It's such an interesting way to abord the theme. Nice submission!

nice submission! I really like the shift in camera angles and the mood ¨

yes the cinematic was quite tricky to handle! Your game's graphics are as well really cool!

I really enjoyed your game as well! 

thank you so muchhhh!!

I have only been walking around but I'm already scared! Nice submission!

omg I'm always falling in the same traps each time. It's a looping journey :))) Great work!

I like the idea of a dungeon crawler that goes in loop! It's also my first jam and I really understand well how the "unpolished game" feeling is. But I think it was a nice shot! Great job!

It's a very hard game to master but it is very fun when you get a hang of it! Would have never imagined a theme like this! Great job! 

The narration and the sarcastic tone of the factory are so great!

You said in your description that it wasn't a good game but I personally feel that the idea is great! I see your vision from when you were starting creating it. It's like a game like overcooked but with more dynamic environment!

Wow! I would have never thought creating a game like this! You guys nailed my "heart". I would love to play your game if it gets released on Steam for example. 

This game is so hard but addicting as well! You guys really nailed it. I especially liked the design which I find so hard to do! 

Really loved how you implemented the concept of loop into this genre! I have actually played a few games since now.  Maybe more kind of upgrades would be nice? Idk. But anyway this is a superb project!

Want to solve puzzles with a unique boulder mechanics? Then here is the right place! Here is a refreshing puzzle/platformer game!

The game is based on the Greek/Roman Myth of Sisyphus, who is a stuck repeating the same task forever—pushing a boulder up a mountain. Each time he gets close to the top, the boulder rolls back down, and he has to start again. Hence, in the game , you experience the same faith (you also have a nice animation of the bolder rolling back down :)).

I hope that you guys like it!

This is a cool feature that I want you guys to try out (running on a boulder on top of lava):

I hope that you guys like my game!!!  It's my first game jam!
