I love to make different voices. If only I had a [good] microphone...

I'll have my ant squashing game finished by the end of this weekend. It'd be sooner, but I've been busy with schoolwork and Gears of War. =P

How about an ultrasonic pulse gun that makes enemies' heads explode when they get within a certain range of you.

Squashing them is part of the scoring code I posted above. It'll be something like each black ant you squash you get +1 point, and each red ant you squash you get -2 points.

Here's how my games going so far:
http://denvish.net/ulf/080407/34682_AntSquash .php
Instructions: The ball will bounce to the location of your mouse. Maneuver to ball to squash the black ants but avoid the red ants.
What needs to be completed?: Scoring code and better looking ants.

It's great to see this running again! I'll probably make some more submissions for this since I don't really have anything else to do. BTW, I'm surprised how many submissions have stars.

Are these all going to be connected in the same story because they have the same main character?

Definitely with the goggles.

Is it possible to set the volume individually for each sound effect? I used the search button here and couldn't find any answers. I also came up dry on Google. Can anyone answer my question?

You can't have two instances with the same name. Do what the other guy said and put all the platforms in a single MC.

Still have the files I sent you? I don't know what happened to them on my comp; I must've accidentally deleted them.

Anyway, good luck on finishing it all up.

No, the author has to manually chose who gets co-authored.

Count me in. I'm busy with school work right now but I can find some time to make a small game.

The code probably continues on, even though you can't see it. Try making a blank keyframe after the one with the code in it.

It would be much easier if you just used an onMouseDown event in the keyframe. Then you wouldn't need a "wait script."

If you get lost so easily then maybe you shouldn't be using Flash. Besides, the tuts already explain things step-by-step, so if you can't get those, I don't know how you can get help from anyone else.

There is a tool known to man that is so powerful, it will allow one to receive information almost instantly (unless you're using a 56k modem). That tool, my friend, is the Search button.

Oops... put "it's" instead of "its." The lack of an edit button drives me insane!

It's name is "Adobe Flash 9 Public Alpha."

I'm having the same problem. I don't think it's possible in the F9 Alpha. It said that some features were missing, so, this must be one of them.

So you figured it out? It took me awhile to learn how events work too (I just got Flash 9 Alpha a couple of days ago...)

Take West-End-Pro's code but modify it so that instead of "player._x" and "player._y" it says "_root.circle._x" and "_root.circle._y"

News of WiiCade must be spreading fast because IGN just posted an article about it:

Looks like it'll be a new generation of XG then.

I added Lines and Keycode. It feels so good to contribute articles!

FlashWiki looks awesome! I'm glad to see a continuation/improvement to AS: Main. The idea of showcasing work is perfect, too. Hopefully this site will have a long future.

What I said before I'll say in greater detail:

Put the vcam on your stage and using the Elastic Mouse Chaser tut on AS: Main as an example, put a code into the instance of the cam on stage that will cause it to follow the mouse with a speed depending on how far it (the mouse) is from the center.

Use the V-cam (Google "flash vcam" or something) and the Elastic Mouse Tut in AS: Main for a basic panning.

Reverse the code so it's inside each platform, making each variable that belongs to the player have _root.player (or whatever the instance name of the player is) in front of it, and make the hittests (if this.hitTest(_root.player)){ . Then the platforms won't need instance names.
