Introdus

(All this was written from the google translator, in case you see any errors)

duration:
The game is quite short since it only has 2 screens and a total of 15 saves, so if done well it can be overcome in less than 2 minutes

Difficulty:
As you might suppose, in exchange for its duration, it has considerable difficulty, since most saves (except 1 or 2) have a certain complication, in fact the gate will be essential for half of the jumps and in one (the last, which by the way for me it was the most difficult by far) I needed to use numpad and make a cancel in the air, although it can be overcome using the normal cancel technique,
Usually each save has 1-3 jumps, so they are quite short.

One issue to highlight about the difficulty is that personally the second room cost me three times as many deaths as the first, although I would not consider it a good difficulty curve since half of the deaths that I had in the second room were in the last save , which by the way was the only one that cost me more than 100 deaths, the rest are all very even and I could not say which is the second most difficult, to finish this point I would like to say that there were 2 saves that were extremely simple ( -10 deaths) which were the second save of the game and the save of the second room that comes before the triple corner.


Jump quality:
I particularly liked most of the jumps and there are some very original that I did not see in any other fangame, such as the fourth save of the first room, the only bad thing is that as I mentioned before there are some that were too easy for me and they are a bit out of tune the game's difficulty line, but for the rest it seemed fine to me, so at this point I give it a thumbs up.

Conclusion:

I wanna be the zeus I think is a fun and challenging game, recommended for those who like needle, the only requirements are knowing how to cancel and if you know how to do numpad better.

Statistics of mine:
Deaths: 396

Time: 24 minutes (I usually die a little but take a long time in fangames xd)

Finally I want to say that the link is private, I got it from an acquaintance by discord, but I imagine that if you ask for it on the discrod of the i wannas community someone will pass it on to you.

Compared to it's inspiration, Hades, Zeus winds up feeling quite a bit more forgettable. The jumps are pretty generic, almost all coming down to some combination of named jumps. While Hades does this too, in this game it's even more prominent. That said, the jumps are pretty fun, and this winds up being decent junk food needle.

A hades-like I found significantly more enjoyable than the original hades, thanks mostly to the increase in tidiness in both jumps and tileset. It was also mercifully short, with the last save being the hardest one, so very well balanced in that sense.

I like this game, it feels it's close to the nice spot on the difficulty of being hard enough it's a challenge but not too hard it makes it too annoying to grind, I recommend.
