ABSTRACT

Interactivity ALL OF THIS DESIGN AND ANIMATION IS FUN, BUT that’s only one side of the Flash authoring experience. Interactivity is an entirely different, yet complementary side of Flash that when combined with design, makes for a compelling experience. This chapter features a step-by-step process of how to design and code a game entirely within Flash CC. Thanks to my talented friend David Crawford we will show you how to create a character that can be controlled in real time using keyboard shortcuts and ultimately how to build a complete interactive game. David Crawford is the brain child behind PercyPea Ltd., a company that specializes in advanced online, single and multiplayer, Facebook and iPhone game development, with games reaching hundreds of millions of players.
