What turned out to become part of our site implementation of Spangles Speed Sprint started out as a little experiment of mine. Following suit of sites such as DailyBooth, how hard can it be to grab an image from your webcam using Flash and add a watermark to it? Turns out, not too difficult at all.

Next on the "Oh, blimey, how does that work?" is the point scoring system currently going on within Gravitum. By the time you're reading this, it may have changed entirely, but this is how it's currently implemented. I dare say there's a more recent one than this if it has changed, so if there isn't, it hasn't. Excellent.

Gravitum - Scoring Points

If you haven't already noticed, there's now a working version of Gravitum out in the ether. It's evolved from what was codenamed The Sun Game (back when it well, involved a sun…) into an atom-based game where you collect the good electrons and avoid the bad ones.

Yes, you guessed it, it's work time again. This time the BA IMP gods that be have set us a lovely Flash task to fulfil. The brief? "Just make something in Flash". Oh, okay.

Ward 413 – Making an interactive panorama

The latest project for university has involved making a Flash animation. Just the other day I’d finished making it, so I thought I’d take you through a bit of the development - because that’s always interesting, right?
