The colour scheme and precise graphics gave it away - I actually thought it might be a different game by the same team as I didn't expect that to be in that game.

There's a definite Egyptian theme to proceedings....

The RZX playthrough of this is nearly an hour and half long.
This screen is almost an hour in, but all the elements on the screen are seen much earlier in the game.
I think this game has some issues with consistent scale - assuming this dude is to scale with the player sprites - I'd say he is between 25 and 50 metres tall.

I think I got it. Thunderbirds by Firebird.
I came across it by chance, checking its map.
I'd never guess it in another way!

I'm figuring that not many people got off the first couple of screens!

I've always liked it but it's the sort of game that needs plenty of time to properly play it.
Ok, my turn:

This platform game is a sequel to a game that was never ported to the Spectrum, and has a very non-Spectrum feel to it.
It tried to innovate in the jump mechanics, with a clunky method to control the distance of a jump, but ultimately that was an evolutionary dead-end for platform games - air control and inertia became the norm.
