ONE Screw of Sisyphus

Let this be presented to you...

Carpentry 111: A study on the absurd and the meaningless, what it means to be truly alone, and one's right to survive with or without other's by your side, or ONE Screw of Sisyphus.

"One must imagine Sisyphus happy" proclaimed Albert Camus in his 1942 philosophical essay The Myth of Sisyphus. Camus muses that the Sisyphus' endless struggle towards the heights is enough to fill his heart alone and that all is well.

In front of you is a screw in a board. Click it to drive it deeper into the wood, and let yourself wonder what it means to be alone.

Made for the GDS Fall-O-Ween Game Jam 2024, with the theme of "Alone".
