So I made this post to declare and share it.<\/p>\n <p>I call it CMG, that&#8217;s the shortened name of my start-up indie company `<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cloudmillgames.com\">Cloud Mill Games<\/a>`. It provides several game-specific utilities based on a number of excellent open source libraries:<\/p>\n <ul>\n <li><a href=\"http:\/\/flintparticles.org\/\">Flint particles library<\/a> for particles<\/li>\n <li><a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/p\/tweener\/\">Tweener<\/a> for animation tweening<\/li>\n <li><a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/p\/collisiondetectionkit\/\">CDK<\/a> for collision detection<\/li>\n <li><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/cassiozen\/AS3-State-Machine\">AS3-State-Machine<\/a> for state machines<\/li>\n <li>Other smaller utilities (like Matrix2D, Vector2D, etc)<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <p>These libraries are all included within CMG and all -except Tweener- are modified to integrate with it, CMG is actually a little more than just glue code.<\/p>\n <p>Keep the following issues in mind:<\/p>\n <ul>\n <li>CMG is written to be used with Adobe Flash, so I have no idea if it is useful with Flex based libraries.<\/li>\n <li>It is still far from being complete, and I&#8217;m sure there are a ton of bugs still there. So don&#8217;t go around building nuclear reactor software with it, use at your own risk.<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fileden.com\/files\/2007\/4\/23\/1008568\/CMGGame.zip\">Download from here<\/a> (~500KB)<\/p>\n <p>Good luck to all LD&#8217;ers \ud83d\ude00<\/p>","time":"August 19th, 2011 9:56 am","title":"iDeclare: personal code library"}
