This is a Flash header image that I’ve been fiddling with. I like the effect of the stars darting around the space.

In my recent work to update my Flash skills, I played with a small space ship movement test. Use the arrow keys to move around and rotate, and the Ctrl key to hard brake.

Recently, I’ve been spending some time updating my Flash skills. This is one of the test I did to work with animation, gravity and variables. Use the arrow keys to move the flashing ball around the screen. it will bounce off of the walls, but it can leave the screen through the top. Eventually, it will come back.

I built this small web-app for the MORPC website. It allows a non-technical user to edit a small txt file on the server and add new events, along with expiration dates. The app then reads the file, randomly lists the events, and excludes any events whos expiration date has already passed.

This is a small application that I built using Flash. It’s meant for science fiction based games where someone needs to determine the distance between 2 points. Entering in the 2 coordinates, Location and Destination, the app calculates the distance between the 2 points.

This is a dice roller I built, in Flash, for the Burning Wheel game I was running in 2006. It was nice to have a dice roller on my laptop so that I could make secret rolls for or against the PCs without the players knowing.

The dice roller is pretty simple. You enter in the number of dice to be rolled at the top, and then select the type of dice (Black, Grey or White) from the pull down. Clicking the Roll button at the button “rolls” the dice. Successful rolls are shown in brackets, like this: , and failures are shown like this:. The dice roller also totals the number of successful and failure dice at the bottom.

The zip file includes both the standalone .exe file, and the .swf file (for embedding in blogs, webpages, and wikis).

This was an entirely Flash-based website. I created it as an example of the power of Flash, it loaded quickly, scaled to different sized browser windows, and had lots of interactive features.
