Just launched Uphill - the Sisyphus-inspired task app.
There's a mode that zooms out to the observable universe when your day is going badly. Another that destroys your journal entries after you write them.

Uphill - Push Your TasksThe task app that doesn't lie to you. Push uphill.
Most task apps reward you for checking boxes. Uphill doesn't.
You complete tasks by dragging them uphill against haptic resistance. Heavier tasks push back harder.
No confetti. No streaks you didn't ask for. No subscription.
Also includes: a journaling mode that destroys everything you write, a 10-second zoom to the observable universe for bad days, and notifications like "The universe is 13.8 billion years old. Your deadline is Tuesday."
$2.99 once. Free tier available.
