146 Ancient lamp found in tomb—when filled and used, its light reveals strange world.

It's a platform game, you break into an ancient tomb where you find a lamp.  When you ignite the lamp the world changes, one world will be action oriented, the other puzzle oriented.  You'll have to switch between them to clear each room.  I hope to make one of the worlds (probably the action based one) creepy and supernatural-ish while the other one will be fairly standard tomb stuff.

Aww, I'm gonna use that one too. Though I also have other ideas and a slightly different focus to the lamp use.

I almost went with this one too.  It's a good topic, and your idea is a pretty good treatment.


My idea though was that the lamplight would have a certain range and some doors/platforms etc. only appear within the light.  The downside would be that monsters also appear within the light .  So if the light's off, they can't see you or harm you, but you also can't get very far.  Hell, I still might make that game anyway.
