www.bornegames.com. I answer a few questions (no I don't know when it's coming out), and go through the steps of how I animate a character for a cutscene.

@Anonymusq Adobe Flash CS4 with ActionScript 2!

[DrNeroCF]

@AJC0MICS: Well, CS5 now (Library search is a Godsent!), but anything Flash MX and later will work, CS3 and later if you have an Intel Mac.

[DrNeroCF]

@Chatterboxx900: We might be, I'd have to check...

I could care less about playing your game- see, I think your games are a wonder of invention, coding, thought, and animation, but I don't like videogames. What I would pay foris your source code! do you use as2 or as3? of course as3, i bet. I hate as3

[DrNeroCF]

@alexk175: Psh, AS2. Flash's rendering is way to slow to even bother with any sort of code upgrades. Why would you want my code if you don't like video games? It's actually pretty terrible code, really just frankensteined together for the sole purpose of making a video game.

Funny, though, because a good video game should be a wonder of invention, thought, and animation.

@galactamarx:  Of course ninjas!

God, all you tools who ask for his code, Write your own, lazy noobs.

Even if he gave it to you, Your brains wouldn't even be able to understand it.

I write AS2 code, just like Borne, and it is REALLY annoying when people ask for source code.

because his have advanced slopes and other things, AI and all, that his entire document contains THOUSANDS of lines.

So even if he gave you it, You wouldnt be able to steal it.

The fun is creating the code to your own suit.

Not someone else.

[TheInspirationExpert]

Haha - when I first saw the pirate, I thought you had written hebrew on his hat - "Yay! Brad Borne is Jewish!" - and then I realized it was . . . yeah.

[Anonymusq]

I love the fancy pants games and I think one thing to make it cooler is if it had more boss battles!!! maybe 3 or 4? That would be awesome!
