This is a solid platformer with many rooms to explore, but the game play is not very original. Mostly it is about jumping and fighting mummys. Maybe you could add other types ef enemies and have more variation in the rooms?

Very cool game, though my browser seems to keep crashing while playing it—I keep getting "This webpage was reloaded because it was using significant memory". However, I was able to find the first two relics and I enjoyed the enemies and aesthetic that ya'll have got going on here.

I found the platforming to be pretty tricky here, and I kept running into the damaging sand walls accidentally when leaving a platform. I missed some jumps due to having what felt like not enough air control for the kind of platforming I needed to do.

Thanks for making and sharing your game!

Cute, I really liked it. Didn't find one of the relics, so feel there's more to explore. A cute in and out though~

I really enjoyed your game. It felt like mix of Zelda II The Adventures of Link with Metroid elements. You did a very good job.

This was legit NES. It felt like a real NES game from back in the day, from the art to the sound to the interactions, everything fit excellently. Great job!
