Some of the things in there reminded me of Giana Sisters. It looks and sounds great so far.

So I knew that you can have a website ending with .com or .net but I didn't know you can have .games

Looks interesting and the music is very good.

Here's a list you probably didn't know about. Enjoy all the trash! Note: do not let this reply derail the thread.

The graphics look great! Like, professional, late-in-the-NES-lifecycle great, in the same echelon as Kirby's Adventure. I love the sword slashing animation. Hard to be certain just watching the video, but the controls look smooth too.

If I were to offer constructive criticism on one thing - I don't like the sound effects at all. Some of the sound effects are too "musical", like picking up and throwing fruit. Collecting gems might sound better higher-pitched. The "screeching" sound effect when turning around isn't terrific either.

Keep up the good work!
