Overview

Born from a game jam centered on the theme of waiting, Waiting for Odysseus retells the story of the Odyssey from Penelope's perspective. By day, the queen weaves under the watchful eyes of her suitors. By night, she secretly undoes her work, buying time as she waits for Odysseus to return. Balance speed and caution as you unravel the cloth before dawn, hoping that your beloved will finally make his way home.
