Embark on a repetitive yet strangely compelling journey as you navigate the slopes of Sisyphos, an indie game where your goal is to keep rolling a rock upward. This casual simulation offers a unique take on the classic Greek myth and Camus' existentialist philosophy.
About this game
I wouldn’t know if I made the game for you to finish it.
Or something cruel and watch you fall.
Or to see how many times you get back up.
Sisyphos is a cruel game inspired by the Greek myth of the same name, in the Albert Camus’ book “The Myth of Sisyphus”. It pays homage to “Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy”. All you have is a hand, a rock, and the slope of a mountain. With practice, you’ll roll the rock uphill to the summit.
THIS IS A INDIE PLATFORM-ish GAME
Well, since you’ve made it this far...
My name is Carlos Villarino, and I’m an independent developer.
All by myself, WELL, with the help of many friends, I assembled this cruelty.
All proceeds will go toward keeping the studio team (just me, haha) fed, finishing this game, and pursuing other game ideas I have.
I hope you enjoyed this adventure.
See you soon.
Gratefully, Carlos V.

PARENTHESES TO DISCUSS HOW TO PLAY
You control the hand with the mouse and must roll the rock uphill. END OF PARENTHESISKEY POINTS
- Roll the Rock Uphill.
- Follow the Contour of the Slope.
- Be patient; the journey is long, but enjoy the music and the path.
- My testers have said it’s incredibly difficult—my apologies for that.
- Release the mouse and let the hand drop occasionally; it’ll help.
- Again, sorry for making you fall; it’s my fault.
- See you at the summit.

Update Notes: Version 1.1
Hello everyone! This small update aims to fix a functionality that I hadn't anticipated (haha) based on feedback. Changes: Gameplay update to prevent carrying the rock all the way to the top haha This update comes from observing the behavior of some players carrying the rock to the top instead of rolling it up the mountain, breaking the gameplay; however, this was allowed due to a bug in the game code that permitted hand rotation, allowing the rock to be held. Now, this is no longer posible. Nevertheless, I will keep an eye on you and check for any feedback! Thanks to the first players, specially to coo1red and to わかやみ. Thank you so much for your support, I hope you give it another try haha See you soon, Carlos V.Read full article on Community Announcements (cvillarino)
