I had a similar problem to FlipStudios. I collected what I believe was the first charm (after the rolling logs) but I was unable to find a way to progress after that, going south led to some boxes but I was unable to jump.
I really like the art sounds and music though! The whole atmosphere and presentation of the game feel very polished and inviting.
If you go back on the right after collecting the first charm, there's a bridge leading to stairs between the two hills. My apologies for the confusion; I suppose the bridge isn't eye catching enought and just seems like water or void.
Concerning the jump, you must collect 5 of them to unlock the temple, in which you can unlock the jump. I believe I could have made the progression a bit more clear and it could use some more indications.
Thanks for letting me know about the issues, it's always great to get some feedback !
also, as you show us the dessert right when we get the first char our intuition tells us that the carm is in the dessert or that we need to go to the dessert. you should use that phenomenom, or whatever its called, to your advangtage not disadvantage, use it to guide the player. The player is always looking for hints of what to do, you should be concious of that when you design.
