The Game of Theseus
Made using Pico-8.
A visual novel retelling of the myth of Theseus and the Maze of Daedalus.
This is the thirteenth iteration of the game. Ever couple of weeks or so I alter the game in one way or another. Check out the devlogs if you wanna see previous versions. Let me know via comment or DM if you have any suggestion or criticism! I'm always looking to improve :)

The breathing animation on the walls is so good and kind of satisfying to watch. Definitely stealing rhythmically yawning corridors for my horror campaigns. Thanks for making/sharing!
I am lost forever :'(
