FPS added.
Standalone here is stays perfectly (45), on IE it's at 33 >.<"

lol I forgot to add the most important thing for this debug, yeah i'm gonna add it now

I was making Sant's Rampage 2 engine, when I tested it on browser, it just seems to be slower already. Would that be because browsers cut the framerate down to 30 (the game is set to 45)?
Anyway, here's the engine sofar:

I didn't even add parallax n stuff and it just doesn't seem so smooth on browsers >:[

When I want to export images from Flash, I do png 24bit, jpg and gif exporters are crappy in flash... then I go to photoshop and export as gif or jpg if needed

I don't know where to see my BA anymore in this new layout (:P), but i think it's over 2.0

Okay, you won't pay people for this... but if you guys find a sponsor, the coder gets his part, right?

for a smoooooth movement, I do like:

Mouse.hide();
_root.onMouseMove = function() {
	_root.mycursor._x = _root._xmouse;
	_root.mycursor._y = _root._ymouse;
	updateAfterEvent();
};

This way, even with a low framerate things still look good :)

Wow, I wasn't expecting a good muffin song. I could use in a muffin game :P

Is there any space left? :D

if you don't have a swf to avi converter, you can export your flash movie as .mov (quickTime), but it have some limitations

This tilebased engine is looking good sofar, btw are you managing to fix the emitter point of the bullets (then they come out from the weapon, not the guy's arm)?

under-siege said it right, use LoadVars class, it's way better

I find the games vs movies "competitions" unfair :P it shouldn't share the same prizefight

great!
If you hadn't show the code I'd guess it was much more complex :O

hm now I see they're probably 100% original but the patterns really confused me... sorry :P

It just fits what you said (in a pic) and what Snubby said...
C´mon the explosions are in different patterns (probably difff. actors)!

And don't tell me to just get a Wacom. I've got a Trust tablet and it works fine, the pen is broke. I don;t need a fucking Wacom and I can't afford one, thanks.

Don't ever buy a Genius tablet, I have one and it sucks, the pen point keep going like u had parkinsons

nobody else wants to join? :P

I just use:

this.onEnterFrame = function(){
     if(!gamePaused){
          //regularstuffhere
     }
}

The "gamePaused var also controls independent movieClips

Hm some people are submitting their games not according to the rules (without the top10) >.<"

exactly :D

I just got some emails about "where's the top10 code".
If you're thinking the same, just go to the FAQ.

No, games with no sponsors can also participate.

It's in the game, if you mean "where is the API?": login to your AB account >> Rankz >> Teamplates >> Flash TOP10

The prize is small because:
This is not sponsorship, just an incentive to use the highscores system :)
