this just means next year's bigjam will be twice as awesome - with the intensity of 2 years planning, enthusiasm and anticipation 

i just wrote a sweet hack to get any constants out of an externally loaded swf, and it worked first time! 

I often wonder what kind of witness protection scheme Adobe engineers must be placed in after releasing CS5.

get it up on steam so i can throw money at you!

make smaller commits dude! 

this will save your ass if you rebase and end up in a world of conflict - also makes things like git bisect more useful

one of the examples that come with shoes (a ruby gui framework) is a tank game with this kind of perspective.

I would second javascript.

Javascript is coming back in a crazy way, with stuff like V8, nodejs and the ever imminent wave of html5 games that threatens to destroy everything. Also there are like a billion javascript games libraries out now

cs5 seems to remove all metadata unless "export swc" is selected when publishing your movie.

adobe engineers are on drugs (bad drugs)

you are so cool

i bet he tastes like salty fanta
