A downloadable game for Windows

Apotheosis

~~You are a hiker, set to scale the most challenging trail of all: Olympus. Well, so are a bunch of other hikers....~~

Actually, scratch that: you're Zeus, who's gotten annoyed at all the mortals hiking too close to home.

🗻 Click on Boulders on the mountain to throw hikers off their trail! If any hikers make it up to the top, you lose.
📷 Navigate the camera with WASD. Mouse scroll to zoom in and out.
🚂 Refer to the Download and Install instructions if you encounter fps drops on load. Thank you for your patience ❤

Important ❗ If the game takes too much time to load on startup:

Wait for the game to load completely (might be around 15 seconds), so that moving the camera is smooth.
Once it loads up once, close the game
Reopen the game. It should now run more smoothly
Thanks for sticking around ❤
