Under rating threshold (show) Update: I'm working on an update. It is taking me a little longer than expected because I'd rather do a better job of explaining things than release something sloppy and make everyone ragequit. Thanks for all the feedback! I do read it! Happy Halloween!

Under rating threshold (show) Really enjoyed this! My only recommendation would be to add another place to get health in the second world zone so that you don't have to click back and forth if you mess up while in logic village.

+ - !

Developer response from GregoryCarlson

when you ragequit, it should heal your health. Unless you are completing levels and going back. In which case, at least you aren't ragequitting?

Under rating threshold (show) is: "private var displayMoney:String = dollarSymbol + displayMoney;" the same as "private var displayMoney = dollarSymbol + displayMoney;" ? Because in your 4/8 strings and variables the first answer is correct but you display the second on 5/8.

Under rating threshold (show) Absolutely loved playing this. I appreciate the hard work you put into it and would love to see more. A perfect mix of teaching the language, how it can be applied in a real program, and a bit of lightheartedness.

Under rating threshold (show) Pretty good game for learning AS3. Nice tutorial for those who don't understand programming concepts. Can't wait for more, I'm more interested in the AS3 syntax since I already know programming concepts.

Under rating threshold (show) Very fun game, I'm actually learning something! :D But also a few questions: Is there a way to see your computer? You can repair it, but how to tell wether it needs repairing? and what does more RAM do (in the game, not RL)?
