The Myth of Sisyphus
A downloadable game for Windows
Based on Albert Camus' 1942 essay of the same name, The Myth of Sisyphus looks for meaning in a meaningless world. I really loved the essay and Camus philosophy of Absurdism. It really had an impact on my life and so this is my best attempt to recreate the Essay and make its ideas more approachable in an abridged little Video Game.
A Global Game Jam 2021 entry!
This game is going to be sent to the moon in 2023! Thanks to reddit user Valphon!
