Last night I had a concert and a party after that, and I was home just before 3.00am, when it all started. I like the theme, I want to make a game where you explore a level and keep getting extra abilities so you can go back and explore more.<\/p>\n

I wanted to at least get something working with Flixel right away, so I downloaded the newest version 1.40 of Flixel and the Mode demo. Two hours later I was still not able to get things working. Turned out that Flixel was just being updated and already had changed twice since I downloaded it. The new version 1.41 did compile without errors, but the Mode game doesn’t really work like the example.<\/p>\n

I just woke up and now I’m going to try to use Flixel and make something. If it doesn’t go well now, I’ll go back to haXe.<\/p>","time":"December 12th, 2009 5:17 am","title":"Time to get started"}
