Flash Dance Game [ 17th Aug 2009, 21:48:56 ]
The dancing game image

This is the Flash Dance Game I created in Flash, following the Flash Genius Guide tutorial, left is an image of the game, however below you can play the game yourself. You can find the fla here if you want to have a play with the code. When building it, I had issues keeping the dancer dancing, which I resolved by calling the first dance frame before calling the actual dance frame, to kind of reset it (so the nested movie clip would reset to the first frame). Additionally it did something funny where it tried to reload the HTML, so I sorted this out and made the game reset politely and start again. This required sorting out clearing up of the arrow objects (i.e. deleting all the remaing ones, and reseting all the variables). Then the stars took a little while to sort out because I'd added my bg object in a different place so I had to set the x and y positioning to zero, which fixed the position, and removed an overlay from the background which made the stars appear visible rather then almost see through.

Improvements would be to speed up the arrows sooner, set the collision detection to be more strict (its too easy at the moment), and get the energy to go down only when you miss an arrow, rather than continuous as it does now).
