Invaders From The Darkness We Call Space

Friday, August 27th, 2010

I am getting ready to release the BasicGameObject set of Classes for making games. The first thing I thought I should do was re-do the Invaders game using my new BasicGameObjects. So, Invaders From The Darkness We Call Space has been updated and perfected. It’s more fun now, has 3 bosses and more upgrades. And… more sound!
It’s been updated yet again! Better performance and some glitch fixes, and better controls.

You can play it here: www.actiontad.com/arcade/

I’d love to know what you think about the game, and how it works for you. On some browsers it may run very very fast. On IE, well… IE just has problems, but for the most part the game runs well, again let me know what you think, or if you have any questions about it, feel free to ask.

new Talk section

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

The old talk section of the site had a nice Flash form that allowed users to post simple text only questions to me. The great thing about that form was that it was done as a flash, and so, robots (spammers) could not post with it!
Well, now with this blog I have to deal with spam all the time, but, none the less, it has come to my attention that the Talk section was.. good. So, now, here is the new Talk to Tad category. You can post any brief ActionScript or related questions here. And I’ll try to answer them. Really it’s more for those who want to ask specific things about examples on this site.
For general questions on ActionScript, I would rather you go to actionscript.org or kirupa.com, you can find me there a lot as well.
