I did a version of Puls, a 256 byte effect, in Flash:

Contact me for the AS3 sourcecode.
I did some experiments in C#. Check out the results.

My friend Harry showed me an interesting board game recently. It’s called cirondo. As far as I know it is no longer produced but it can be ordered here: cirondo.de
Here’s my (low graphics) Flash version: Cirondo (Flash, AS3)
The game should be quite self explanatory the way I made it. Possible moves are highlighted as soon as a stellar is selected. A sun comes into game when a moon reaches the center circle.
I don’t have permissions from the authors of the game … let’s see what happens
If anyone is interested in the sourcecode, please contact me. I’m also planning to do an iPhone/iPad version of it.
I had a conversation with some guys at the Adobe Bugbase about problems that were reported concerning the upload features of Flash on any browser.
It occurred to me that Antivirus Softwares were interrupting the process of uploading files to a server over the Adobe Flash Plugin by taking the whole file and then buffering it to the server. This is why the upload progress reaches 100% very fast and in addition to that it decreases the upload speed since the whole file is going through virus checks before it’s streamed to the server.
For now I agree with the fact that those Antivirus Programs interfers with the upload functions of the Adobe Flash Plugin in any Browser:
(Tested with Flash 10, all versions but I’m assuming that this happens to all versions of the Adobe Flash Player)

AVG Free 9.0
McAfee 4.001494

My friend Herodin bought an interesting game recently. It’s called Pentago. I thought I make a Flash version of it.
The goal of the game is to get 5 balls in a row. After dropping a ball the player is forced to rotate the plate the ball was dropped onto by 90 degrees. The direction of rotation can be chosen. It’s a two player game, no A.I. or multiplayer features for now. The only clever stuff that IS done is the check if one or both players won to end the game. This is achieved by breaking down the whole board information to a string (which can be used for replay and network play) that is then handed to an algorithm that identifies if the game is over. I think I’m going to work on that more (start screen, menu, replays) after CS5 has arrived and put it on the app store for iPhone/iPod touch as free download. It can be easily extended for network play.
Take this as a first version:
