Myth of Stickyphus

Description

The Myth of Stickyphus is a side scrolling procedurally generated shooter in a sketch book art style based on the Myth of Sisyphus about a man who is doomed to continuously push a boulder up a hill only to have it roll back down again.

In the Myth of Stickyphus you play as a little stick figure named Stickyphus (Sticky) who is trying to traverse as far as is possible across his world only to inevitably be stopped and sent back to do it all over again. Along this infinite procedurally generated block world he will encouter enemy stick figure soldiers including snipers, mortars, an Armoured Boss and more who will hinder his progress.

There are multiple weapons to use to help sticky on his journey,as well as armour, explosives and other items, all which have been procedurally generated along with the terrain. The difficulty progressively increases as you take sticky further and further.
