Re: Programming Languages Discussion

Any good flash AS3 tutorials for CS5? Or should I just quit flash now and go for canvas?

Canvas seems a good bet, considering that Windows 8 SDK is based on HTML5 and Javascript which seems to suggest Canvas is going to be part of it as well. Also, Flash Player isn't supported by iOS or Android devices so again, Canvas seems to win out and anything made in Canvas seems to be cooler than the same thing made in Flash  wink

You mean not blocks?

Re: Programming Languages Discussion

Even with blocks it's still code based.

I just looked at Canvas and it had extremely ugly syntax. Unless you can give me an in depth tutorial, then I don't think I should.(Not W3 schools! That place has HORRIBLE tutorials.)

Shutdowns, remote shutdowns, log information, browse a directory, change a directory, write files, create basic programs and text-based adventures, destroy your computer, flood your computer. And some other basic commands.

Well, the only way you could destroy it is using the del command and delete system32 or another vital function.

Re: Programming Languages Discussion

I downloaded Stencyl and it doesn't really make sense. There's tiles and behaviors and everything is seperated. It seems like a step backwards in programming  hmm

Re: Programming Languages Discussion

Recently I've been learning Python through this, the exercises in this program are really good, I'm currently struggling with some tiny bits about lists. It's really the first programming language other than Scratch I'm actually understanding.  smile

After I get the hang of it, I'll look into pygame and see if I can make something. What other programming languages are effective for the purpose of making games? Unity, though more a tool than a programming language (as you can write in JavaScript or C to use the features provided by the program), is something I was considering learning, but never bothered.  tongue

I've never liked Stencyl either, it seems overly complicated.

JavaScript, or Flash and Actionscript, or Processing.
