Pharaoh's Fury Run

Generate a retro pixel art sprite sheet in the style of classic 2D side-scrolling action games (inspired by Castlevania, Metroid, or Mega Man), featuring a powerful mummy character optimized for smooth, fluid platformer movement. Depict the mummy in his classic wrapped bandages appearance but modified into armored form: tightly bound white/gold bandages reinforced with ornate golden metallic plates on shoulders, chest plate with Egyptian scarab motifs, forearm bracers, and shin guards; tattered bandage trails acting like a cape; glowing blue eyes through head wrappings; subtle decayed greenish-gray skin and bone hints in gaps for an intimidating undead pharaoh warrior vibe. He dual-wields a pair of golden scimitar swords resembling coiled cobras: curved blades with shimmering gold scale textures, flared cobra hood guards, ruby-red gem eyes on pommel cobra heads that glow during motion, fangs at the tips—held one in each hand in a dynamic running-ready stance (right arm forward, left back). Primary focus: Ultra-smooth running animation perfectly suited for 2D side-scroller games—side-view perspective only (facing right by default, include mirrored left-facing versions if possible), consistent sprite dimensions (48x64 pixels per frame for detailed fluidity), 12-16 frames per run cycle for seamless looping at 60 FPS (emphasize buttery-smooth transitions: no jitter, perfect stride overlap, realistic momentum build). Sprite sheet layout: Single horizontal row or grid with clearly separated run cycles (right-facing and left-facing), plus optional 2-4 frame idle for context/looping into run. Transparent background, high contrast, 16-32 color retro palette (golds, bone whites, deep teal shadows, red glows). Running animation details for smoothness: Frames 1-4: Acceleration stride—left leg back, right forward pump; arms piston naturally (scimitars swinging with momentum, cobra heads trailing gold sparks). Frames 5-8: Full speed cycle—alternating legs with deep knee bends, heel-to-toe plant, torso lean forward; bandages/cape billowing backward in wind with layered flapping for depth. Frames 9-12: Deceleration/maintain—mirror early strides; subtle head bob, shoulder roll for weight shift. Frames 13-16 (if extended): Loop seam perfection—end pose matches frame 1 exactly; add speed lines, sand dust kicks from feet, faint glow pulses on cobra eyes synced to steps. Ensure hyper-fluid pixel art: sub-pixel implied motion via dithering/anti-aliasing edges, consistent limb proportions, squash/stretch on legs for bouncy platformer feel, no static poses—pure cyclic perfection for Godot/Unity import. Classic 16-bit era aesthetics: crisp pixels, strategic dithering for shading, dark ancient Egyptian/gothic tones. Output as one PNG sprite sheet (e.g., 1024x256 pixels) with frame grid, numbered/labeled, transparent BG, ready for sprite editors like Aseprite. Make the mummy look regal, relentless, and epic as a boss-rush enemy charging across desert tombs!
