This moody pixel art game was released in 2017. I'm playing now on the Nintendo Switch with video captured at 1080p and upscaled to 4K. The synthwave music soundtrack is brilliant. It is moody with loud thumping beats, and goes perfectly with the haunted ambience. It really gives me the old 16-bit vibes with the likes of Castlevania, Metroid, and Ghouls & Ghosts. It is available on nearly every gaming platform. It's perfect for a Switch or Steam Deck.
A powerful ancient evil has arisen, and the war to save humanity has begun! The Mummy Demastered throws you into a 16-bit-inspired battle against the undead in a 2D, nonlinear, action-packed adventure. As an elite agent in the monster-hunting Prodigium organization, you must use a variety of weapons, upgrades, and mysterious artifacts to defend mankind against the supernatural hordes of Princess Ahmanet. Your Prodigium unit is already on the scene, but HQ lost contact with them hours ago. Only by exploring tombs, forests, abandoned tunnels, and the cursed streets of London will you discover the fate of your allies. But beware - Ahmanet commands legions of undead, insects, plague-ridden vermin, and worse! If you're not careful, you'll be the next soul in her army.
