Boulder Dash! 🏃💨🪨

Imagine a classic Crash Bandicoot boulder level crossed with Temple Run!

Boulder Dash is an Endless Runner inspired by the Myth of Sisyphus. It follows an Ancient Greek theme with gameplay being focused around a Boulder Chase mechanic, using a Reversed Camera Style. The score is the main objective for the player in the game and is impacted by Time Alive, with Bonus Points by Collecting Coins. The movement consists of Jumping and Sliding;  3 Power Ups exist in the game to assist the player. The fail conditions for the game are Staggering into the Boulder or Falling into a pit. 

Creative liberties have been taken to further match our vision of the game.

"After being punished by Zeus, Sisyphus has to move a boulder through a settlement to the top of a hill. Nearing the summit, Sisyphus loses control of the boulder, as it begins to chase our exhausted victim of God. Do you have what it takes to outrun the boulder? Or must you continue your wicked ways of cheating death in order to complete your punishment?"
