I'm being very unoriginal with the genre of a game I'm making and making it a 2d sidescroller. (Originality will come from concept when I think of a guden')

Can anyone recommend good Flash 2d sidescrollers so that I can get ideas for my engine, I'm not going to rip off the actual game, that's just a complete waste of time. I'm looking for things like from Portal: Flash version, the gun aiming is done with mouse, I like that idea so made my base able to do that if necessary.
Just looking for different things I could add to make it somewhat not overly generic and when I am happy with my concept I can use other things aswell.

(Thinking 2d sidescroller/Point and Click, so Mario/Monkeys Island, but focusing on the side scrolling bit right now. Edit: If anyone can tell me this idea has already been done then link me I'd love to play it, Point and Click is boring for me so I think adding platforms and combat in it would make it more interesting)

Don't use inspiration, think of something new and original that we have not played before. That would play it a lot more then!
