With our project, we aim to contribute to education and entertainment by developing a platformer game that creatively conveys Greek mythology. The game's storyline highlights various gods of Greek mythology, dedicating each level to a specific deity and narrating their story. This approach allows players to not only experience entertaining gameplay but also expand their knowledge of Greek mythology.

Our main goal is to provide an accessible introduction to Greek mythology. Since this subject is often insufficiently covered in schools, we aim to fill this gap and provide a means for individuals interested in Greek mythology to access it through our game. By gamifying the stories of the most significant gods, players will be not only entertained but also encouraged to learn more about Greek mythology. We strive to create a compelling and informative gaming experience that sparks curiosity and imparts knowledge.
