My first Flash game: The Snake!

Oi, sunshine, here we go! After a week of testing new Flash (Adobe CS3) and now with Flex Builder, I'm proudly presenting my first app in Flash! For some reason I always hated the syntax etc. but now I must admit, ActionScript 3.0 is just it, syntax similar to Java, Flex Builder (plugin for Eclipse) is helping as one would expect... Some catches and surprises like by any language but nothing fatal. No more negative talks from me ;)



I skipped Flash Player version testing so if it doesn't work, you probably just don't have the 9th version. And I also skipped the workaround for Internet Explorer so you must click on the Flash to activate it.

Hey I could use some help on getting your MTG proxy printer to work...

I understand what python is and a GUI, etc. but cannot find a dl, zip, tar, exe, or even source to compile. Or perhaps I misunderstand and you put the text file in the browser somehow...


A quick instruction by email would be great... mattkatona@gmail.com

or is it even a finished program?

There is no GUI, you just run it like python main.py + some parameters described there. Sorry for missing help text, I want to write it but it's not exactly the most important thing for me right now, so it will take some time.
