Hi all. I'm just about to wrap up my current project and I'm hoping to get some feedback from you guys. What do you (not) like? What does/doesn't work? What changes would you make? I'm still waiting on some assets from the artist, so you may notice a few missing graphical elements. The game is on flashgamelicense.com, so you'll need at least a developer's account there to view it. [LINK CLOSED] This link will only be available for one day. Thank you for your help. Hi all.

Perhaps I just don't understand, but I feel that I CAN know everything that's going on (assuming I write the entire application myself without any 3rd party APIs). And even if for some reason I can't know, isn't one of the goals of a programmer to at least ATTEMPT to know everything that happens or could happen? That's what Beta Testing is all about. I guess I just don't get the attitude that "We can't know, so there's no sense in trying.

When are you people going to understand that AS2 is OUTDATED! If you are already a master of AS2 and it works well for you, fine, stick with it. But if you're new to flash, choosing between AS2 and AS3 is like saying "I want to learn Photoshop, should I get the latest version or the one that came out in 2004?" That's right, AS2 came out 5 YEARS AGO! That's like 50 in tech years. AS3 has been around for over 3 years now (officially released 2006-06-27), and AS4 is on the way. Do you want to take advantage of the newest technology? Learn AS3. Do you want to use the most popular physics engine: Box2D (or any of them for that matter)? You need to know AS3. Do you want to use the version of Papervision3D that's still being updated? You had better know AS3. Do you want to take advantage of the ever growing list of useful APIs that are being created all the time? I think you're getting the idea. Now all of the AS2 old-bies are going to chime in with "I can still find (blah blah blah) in AS2! AS2 ROCKZ!" Do yourself a favor and don't listen to that crap. Of course they want to entice you over to the dark side. It's easier for them to force their archaic language on you than it is for them to get with the times. Don't buy into the lies! Shake off those AS2 shackles my brothers! Join the Free men and women of AS3! We're waiting for you with open arms. Or you can keep making your cute little shootorial clones. Your choice.
