Games I have Known: Glypha

In this game you ride on top of a bird. By pressing space you flap your wings which allows you to gain height, and then glide. The setting is Egyptian as if you are inside a crypt. Fighting is done by jousting where if you slightly above the enemy, other birds of prey with their own jousters, you win. On the bottom there is an egg that hatches enemies f you don’t pick it up. Walking on a surface is very slow, so it is faster to gain vertical distance then glide.

On the bottom however there is lava that will kill you. In the lave, if you get too close, a hand comes out and pulls you down. By flying up rapidly you might escape or if you fly just right, you can pull up the disembodied hand to the middle of the stage as a joke. Speed might also be an important factor in fighting. If another bird is moving as fast, they might have a computer advantage. With the hand slowing you down and pulling you down, the lance is more likely to hit your body and kill you. With several enemies flying around it becomes quite challenging.

Also if you are messing around I remember a Horus eye is summoned by lightning and hunts you down.
