About This Game

Sisyphus is Streaming! He didn't give up, but decided to lifestream his endless struggle to find some joy in it.

A weird mixture of Streamer Simulator, Clicker and Quick-time actions about life, spectacle, and making the grind worth living. Push the boulder. Do tricks. Grow channel. Unlock new struggles. Play mini-games.

And always ask:

• Aren’t you a Sisyphus too?

• Can you Imagine Sisyphus Happy? 

Some people ask, "Can you win this game?" You decide.

“The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a human’s heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.” – Albert Camus.

Sisyphus, king of Corinth, has tricked the Gods and Death. To punish him, the Gods condemned him to push a boulder uphill forever, only for it to roll back each time.

But Sisyphus didn't give up! He decided to livestream his infinite struggle as a way to seek joy in a futile repetition. The Boulder is still there... But is it is till punishment?

Keep pushing the boulder.

To entertain the chat (and yourself), besides pushing your boulder, you perform acrobatic tricks.

A deeply simulated streamer economy. What can feel better than people appreciating your performance?

It's a meta-narrative game about spectacle and finding meaning in repetition. Roll your boulder, pull off stunts, and try to make the eternal grind worth living.

Progressing from Greek myth to the modern day, the story asks two ultimate questions:

• Aren’t you a Sisyphus too?

• Can you Imagine Sisyphus Happy?

So pick your boulder, and keep pushing.
