Isometric experiments
June 8th, 2011here are two isometric experiments that i did few days ago
here are two isometric experiments that i did few days ago
here is another demo compiled into js with jangaroo
this time i have found few unsupported properties like usehandcursor, xscale, yscale, mousechildren.
jangaroo is a great tool. using this tool i can compile the actionscript into javascript. it provides wrapper for Ext-js and it has a full flash like actionscript library.here is what i have compiled with jangaroo ( do not open in IE)
setting up compiler with no maven was bit pain but this tool seems very promising.
there are some thing which are not yet supported by jangaroo like the rotation of textfield.
I have not written any blog posting since 6 monthsi was very busy making 2 social games which is due released next monthi am back and will write more with flash , air and androidand finally happy new year 2011

Here is what i created today with canvas , I see no reason why this could not be done without canvas
canvas particle with HTML5’s Canvas tag
“Gurkhas are best known for their history of bravery and strength in the Indian Army’s Gorkha regiments and the British Army’s Brigade of Gurkhas.

The British recruited heavily from these Martial Races for service in the British Indian Army.[3] ……. src wikipedia”
i am making a tower defence game , this game will use push button game engineand will be a 2.5d (isometric) game.this game is named “gurkha” and will havea grukha as the main hero of the game.I am using flint particle engine for the particles here is screen shot of my WIP 
here is my experiment with pathfinding using A* , pushbuttongameengine and as3isolib[http://codewithme.com/rama.swf]
the beta version of little hanuman
I have started coding a platform game that will be a facebook app
http://codewithme.com/platform/
will write more about this later …
I have been playing with pushbutton game engine for some time ,its really good to be able to create games without using flash IDE.there are few tutorial on pushbutton game engine ( there are really less tutorial on any game engines)this one is really a great resource for pushbuttongameengine http://pushbuttonengine.com/devgallery/pushbutton-tutorial-series .I am also learning Tile Studio for creating Tiles and maps. http://tilestudio.sourceforge.net/pushbutton engine contains really cool things like tracking object, box2d wrapper, easy way to make animation and many more.I have used sprites from the tutorial.here is link to what i have created till now , please wait for a while as i have not kept loading (loaders)http://codewithme.com/bugs/ I hope to create a full blown platform game with some orginal story line
