How does your game meet GBJam's theme
When I heard of the theme "Old Gold," I thought of the Midas Touch for the "gold" part, and a large stronghold for the "old" part. Since I'm not great at making good jump mechanics, I made the character not jump as a main feature.

Very interesting concept! I liked the idea of the midas touch being an actual gauntlet. I did get a bit confused on the last level, a bit sad you didn't get to finish everything. This has promise, I am a big fan of puzzle games like this!

Developer

Yeah, the last level is unfinished due to deadline crunch, and I didn't have time to make some sort of end screen. Thank you, and I'll try to make more with this idea!

Nice, I like the double meaning of gauntlet being both a glove and as trial ! 

It makes you want to solve more of them.

Developer

Thanks, I'll try to make more with this game idea in the future!
