Hey everyone! Lars Doucet here, I worked on Defender's Quest.
A while back I posted this: Haxe/OpenFL 101 for flash refugees.
Now I have some news, I've been talking with various "powers that be" and we've got some strong leads on building out official support for Haxe/OpenFL on the major next-gen consoles (in fact we've already started work on at least one console). The upshot to this is it would let Flash developers get their stuff on consoles at native speed with a lot less work than porting to say, Unity. You would have to port your game to Haxe (a very similar language to Actionscript), but you could keep using the Flash API and most of your workflow (including flash vector art).
Of course, we have to finish building this console tech layer first :)
This is where you come in. The "powers that be" are very interested in this project, but before they throw their weight behind it they need a list of devs and games that would benefit from it. So if you are a *serious* developer, with at least one decent game under your belt, and you'd be honestly interested in a console release, please give me your details and a list of your games so I can include it in the big list. Note that this is not an up-front commitment to anything, you won't be legally obliged, etc, it's just a statement of interest.
