Reviews for "Sisyphus"

Just a chill little little game to play when you're bored. I like it. Nice music too.

AlexTheGreatish responds:

hey, thanks

Well, I almost like it!
Game seems rough and unfinished but still good.

AlexTheGreatish responds:

Thanks! Yeah, I'm not the greatest with art, but I'm improving.

Nice idea. I still think something else is needed in the game, like make every round longer, or instead of see how many rounds can you complete, maybe how far can you reach? I like also the upgrade menu.

Keep the good work!

AlexTheGreatish responds:

I considered some sort of "Endless" mode, but I could never perfect the formula so I never bothered adding one. Thanks for the review!

An interesting new installment of Take a hike game with the use of Greek myth, good idea!
There are some things I would like to mention/change:
1. At the later stages you barely got time to put your fingers on the keyboard and if you get caught you are falling very fast, I managed to deal with it by keeping my fingers prepared while clicking start with my left hand using the touchpad, but that would not be a bad idea to give the player some time to prepare, like a board with "3, 2, 1... go!";
2. As I mentioned at the later stages you fall very fast, so it is only a matter of luck whether you will proceed or not. If you will get caught it is almost a 100% fail, because after you will click your way out of it you will be already too low to recover;
3. As for the luck upgrade: the next levels description is confusing: ow wait, I upgraded the chance of getting caught from 100% to 200% and even to 300%? So I actually made it worse for me? ;-)

AlexTheGreatish responds:

Thanks for the review, I tried fixing the things you told me.
1. You now have time to prepare before you start pushing the boulder
2. It now takes longer before you are able to get caught on a rock
3. I fixed the luck upgrade info, no clue why I didn't notice that lol
