Egg Chase

I had a number of "complaints" from people who were getting too frustrated with the trolls (see below) so here is another simple game, again based on a tutorial by Glen Rhodes, which is rather easier to complete. Please note that the graphics are not great quality - that's something I am still working on - and I hope to add different levels of difficulty later on, too. But anyway, here's the idea -

We have on the left, our "hero", the Famous Running Bundleman. Using your arrow keys, you have to get him to the sanctuary of the EasyJet flight on the right. You will also have noticed that the terminal is guarded by the Police car, which will attempt to trap the Bundleman. Can you get him out of the country before getting caught? Oh yes, and you are not allowed to run into any of the Eggmen either. (Also, the Police Car cannot run over any eggs).

Hangman

This hangman game is based on a tutorial by lukamaris - it's quite a big tutorial, over 6 parts, and quite complicated. But I particularly wanted to learn how to combine external files with a Flash front-end, so that the game can be customised by just amending the external files. This one uses a text file and an xml file for the list of words. Lukamaras' example has animals, but I wrote mine after a whole weekend of watching the Crime Channel, so in this version you have to guess the name of the murderer......



Note that the above sample gives you an error message - if you just ignore it and click, you will get an idea of how it works anyway, but to make it work properly you need the full-sized version here. Later on I will extend the XML file with more names, so the game lasts longer.

Forum Modding - The Game

I am a mod on several Internet Fora for various topics. Some of these attract quite a bit of trolling. So I wrote this game in Flash, with the help of a tutorial by Glen Rhodes. It is quite realistic and I have not even managed to complete it myself yet. Only one rule - click on a troll to put it back in it's hole, click on a hole to make a troll pop up; try and get all the trolls back in their holes!



Full sized version here. Thanks to Ecolab at Viv's Place for providing the troll!

Beta Testing

This is not intended to be a "proper" blog .... it is simply a place to park various Flash Files, Delphi apps and assorted bits of Java code while I test them. Comments and suggestions are, however, welcome - provided they are kept CLEAN and LEGAL!
