Alright, now that I have some time to finish this up, I am declaring what I will be using, and sharing my basecode. Actually, baselibrary.<\/p>\n

I’ll continue to develop in Actionscript3, using the Flex compiler. My IDE will remain FlashDevelop, as I am quite happy with it since I discovered the FlxDebug plugin. My graphics library will be Flixel.<\/p>\n

Graphics will be drawn in Photoshop, or InkScape if I end up doing vector art.<\/p>\n

Sound? I am not sure yet. SFXR is always there if I end up being lazy, but I might try something different this time.<\/p>\n

Basecode? Some. It’s a hodge-podge of miscellaneous stuff, mostly for Flixel. For example, a simple class for drawing status bars, and another for creating scrolling text displays. The kind of crap I end up duplicating over and over, so I just stuck most of it into a separate library.<\/p>\n

I’ve been working on a Tiled<\/a> loader for Flixel. It’s pretty much feature complete*. The nice thing about Tiled levels is that they are more than just tilemaps, but can contain any amount of meta-data in so-called “object layers.” It’s decent if you’re into 2D tilemaps.<\/p>\n

Anyway, here is the library as-is: gwslib<\/a> Note that I use the fast SHA1 available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I wrote some Astar pathfinder stuff to go along with that, but it’s a bit broken at the moment. I will try to get it working before tomorrow afternoon.<\/p>\n

*As long as you use the QT version of Tiled, and don’t use isometric tiles. \":)\"<\/p>\n \n
