It’s hard to get used to the as3 syntax again after several months of C# coding (I really<\/strong> like “int someInt;” above “var someInt:int” – less writing) but I get by. That and for the first time I’m trying to work with collisions in Flixel (or any framework). Takes some getting used to, all that fancy automatic machinery.<\/p>\n

I’ve been at work all day so progress is very slow but a lot of the boilerplate base is in place (basic states, base classes, base loops – all the base are belong to me). I would have posted a screenshot, but the only thing I have right now is a stick figure riding a sheep. And unfortunately, he’s “riding” the sheep, not riding the sheep – at least that’s how it looks.<\/p>\n

Still, I should have something barebone simple ready by this evening if I can keep the progress up… and then come the art assets. Bah!<\/p>\n

Off work in 10, then sushi, then more work.<\/p>","time":"April 30th, 2011 6:51 am","title":"Syntax, lag, understanding."}
