Hey,

I've started work on a new game and I'm covering all the development at chamalien.kabomb.net
It's an old cliché style platformer with a really interesting new mechanic - you turn into what you touch (like a chameleon) and you can throw objects made out of the same stuff. You can play the latest beta release over at the site and follow my posts about the development over the game. Please offer some feedback too, and your ideas could be in the game.

Go check it out.

What d'ya think?

Kayn is just a little grumpy this morning. Where's that Irish spirit for St. Patricks Day?

Well great to see I have support from you XD

My plan is actually to become more involved on the BBS, mainly in the Flash section. But then there's my final year of school so we'll see how we go.

Serious question. I lurk on these forums a lot, and while my new console has eaten up some of my time I've not seen you around the Flash forum. And while I don't portal snipe as much as I used to, I still check it from time to time and would recognise someone important.

So... um... why should we check your blog when Emanuele Feronato's already doing a better job of this than any of us could?

Well I don't post on the forums a lot anymore - but you might know a few of my games. See my profile.

And what's wrong with another flash blog? You get another perspective from a different developer. And I don't plan to either clone or beat other blogs, I just want to see what people can learn from me. Is there anything wrong with that?

I've created a new blog with Wordpress and it's worth checking out. I'll be posting flash news, articles and tutorials on things like how I make my games and how other people do theirs.

I hope I can inspire some of you to finish your parts.

space asked me to do a menu, seeing as pillowbashers being lazy or something.

Here's what I have so far:

It's in the style of the Fratellis logo + album covers.
I obviously don't know what other buttons are going on, so I just put play 3 times. Space/tripping have to tell me that :P

What do you guys think?

Here's my 4th design

Got confused with hydra, astro + AS3

For the pixel shaders, it makes sense that it's a different language. Pixel shaders involve communicating with the graphics card, which simply cannot be done efficiently with a scripting language, so adobe made a much lower level language for the pixel shaders.

So basically it will improve performance? Thats good then.

I hope it won't be laggy like filter effects are on crappy computers (like mine), there's new languages and there will be a flash player so hopefully that will kill the lag.

I knew they would go 3D at some point.

It's exciting, but why are there now 3 different languages? Shouldn't there a way to take care of filters and 3D stuff in one language?

I better learn AS3 pretty soon

This collab has been going for a loooong time, are all parts finished? I almost forgot I was a part of this.

Anyway, anything I can do?

Final (longer) version

Final version

The music is from the audio portal on NG, so if your going to use it ask permission from the author first.

Sure I'll be able to do it tomorrow
