I just saw
One thing in the movie is a medusa head where they show the eyes of the medusa head to anyone they want to turn to stone. Which got me thinking to Midnight Mansion 3: maybe you should have to approach medusa heads from *behind* (otherwise you turn to stone just for looking at her) to kill her. Then, when she dies, she falls as a dead head to the floor, which you can pick up and carry around. Then you carry that to some other large monster that is blocking your path, and turn it to stone.
Haha. Way too much work for my simple game (and probably make it too complex for current players), but a fun idea nonetheless. ;-)
Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thieflast night. It's an
okaymovie, but I enjoyed the special effects and found them inspiring to make me want to make games that did some similar things.
