The Long Drought
So… what have I been up to?
I’m leaving Imba Games after a year and a half. I decided it’s time to move on from developing purely in AS3. I feel like my career has come to an halt. I also fear labeling myself as an “AS3/Flash developer” because of the unfortunate fact that a “Flash developer” is an underrated job, especially in Israel. It’s time to move on and find a different job, even if it’ll not be related to game development.
Nevertheless, it doesn’t mean I abandon game development and AS3 entirely! I still develop under Indigon! Remember Physics Defense? I killed it. I had an idea in mind, which didn’t work as a game. The important thing is that I have recently started working on a new small game called Frogget-it! It’s a game developed for Android, with possible ports to iOS and web Flash portals. I can’t say anything about it now besides “IT’S FUN!”.
What framework do u use for mobile def? Have u tried Corona SDK – i heard alot of flashers love it.
Though…i’m not flasher…can’t decide what to use yet, but probably will stick with Maoi framework.
They both give u ability to write games for differ platforms same time. But i heard Maoi is faster, cause ‘low level’ SDK.
I use the Adobe Flash Builder 4.5 porting mechanism. Allows you to write in AS3 and port to iOS/Android/Blackberry easily.
