I sort of lost interest/forgot about blogging for a while but a few days ago I decided to make a quick game in flash. It's really quite simple so far but I hope to be able to work on it more to get it to play how I want it to.
So far this game has very basic graphics, which I will most likely change later on. You use the left and right arrow keys to move the block and collect the falling green circles, which add to your score and increase the speed of the game. You have three lives and once these are gone it's game over.
Creating this helped me to learn about how actionscript handles object collision, etc.
The finished game will hopefully have different coloured balls falling down, which change the colour of the block which the player controls to create a certain colour and amount of that colour to progress to the next level. But for now here is the first basic version of the game. Oh actually meh can't find a way to upload flash directly and ftp not set up on server. will upload later :)
