Foreward

After cheating Death and conning Hades, Sisyphus had been condemned to eternally roll a BOULDER up a mountain in the underworld. At the peak, the BOULDER was cursed to roll back down to the bottom.

One day, Hades went to go check on Sisyphus, only to notice him smiling as he strolled down after his BOULDER to the bottom.

Clearly, Sisyphus had not been punished enough...yet.

About Us

We are a husband and wife studio that someday hopes to make games full-time.

BOULDER was built in a custom Haskell 2D game engine we have been iterating on as we have been delving into Ludum Dare. The engine has recently become a bit more stable, which helped a lot this jam. The art was hand-drawn and animated in Clip Studio Paint.

We hope you can find fun in our eternal task.
