How does your game meet GBJam's theme
The game has a very literal interpretation of 'old gold', you're a reawakened skeleton in a dungeon being plundered by pirates, you need to fight them off and collect gold and treasures.
We also wanted to evoke the metaphorical 'old gold' feeling of retro games with interesting worlds full of secrets to explore (debatably successfully because the game was made in 9 days lol)

A game with a simple and fun concept that works really well! The idea of having a skeleton searching for gold instead of pirates is genius. Having combat similar to Super Mario would make it even more fun. The soundtrack also does a great job of setting the mood, and the colorful transitions are a really nice touch!

love the simple graphics and the platform jumping mechanics are great. well done.
I like how there is not much hint other than the control and let player explore, the platforming is a bit boring.
Had fun! I liked all of the secret areas and the wall jumping was great
very cool game, and cool interpretation of the theme. I now think all the monsters in all the dungeons in all the games are just fighting for gold, same as the player :)
A highly responsive, fluid, and fun platformer! great pixel art :)
A wonderful smol lil platformer about collecting gold and going on platforms to find stuff. (pls play my game)
