The end of certain video games is sometimes unattainable. Sometimes it's the genre that dictates it. In World of Warcraft for example, there is no end, because the whole principle of an MMO where it is to see the software evolve and finish it would amount to waiting for the servers to close. Suffice it to say that it's not yet close to happening for this one. We can also talk about League of Legends which has no main adventure and therefore no progressions. These are just games with one goal: defeat the opponent and move up the rankings. In the same idea we can also mention Fortnite; where you have to finish top 1, or Overwatch 2. On the other hand, there is also this whole category of game, so hard, that it is impossible to see its end. We don't necessarily talk to you about games where 100% is complicated, we talk to you about real challenges like Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy or Only Up. However, their objective is extremely simple: to go as far as possible. Easier said than done when the slightest misstep can cost you all your progress. However, this difficulty has managed to make these titles very popular, especially among streamers, and this next game could do the same.


You're never going to see the end

Do you know the myth of Sisyphus ? In Greek mythology, it is said that the latter defied Zeus by revealing to the river god Asopos the whereabouts of his daughter Eugenie, kidnapped by the god of lightning. Furious that his plan failed, Zeus decided to punish Sisyphus, first by trying to kill him. Unfortunately, this is impossible thanks to the action of Thanatos, the personification of Death. So, to take revenge, he decides instead to sentence Sisyphus to roll a rock foreverto the top of a hill, which rolls down each time the summit is reached. Behind this myth which embodies the absurdity of a task, or the cycle of the sun depending on the interpretations, developer Bashir “Manliest Dev” Kashalo, saw perfect gameplay.

You will have understood, it is Sisyphus himself that you will be able to embody in Push It! With Sisyphus. The aim of the game is, as in the myth, to roll a boulder to the top. There are still some subtleties. Already, with each step, you become a little stronger. And fortunately, there is an end, except that you will have to be very skillful, because this rock slips out of your hands very easily. On the Steam page, the tone is “Experience levels of frustration you never thought possible before.” There is an end. You probably won't make it. “, we can read. At the same time, everything is done to disturb you, like the other rocky spheres that could crash into you. For the moment, the software is in full development and does not yet have a release date. However, the developer already has plenty of projects to improve Pushing It! With Sisyphus. For our part, we are looking forward to one thing. See who will reach the top of the hill first.
