Sometimes developers decide to build sites completly in Javascript that wants to have Flash look and feel. For me it’s a bad choice, mostly because of really bad experience, taking bad side in performance and experience because often there are no preloader no real fading no ease and soft transitions even they are trying to make it. It’s technically cool but that doesn’t makes me love the site.

On the other hand some Javascript developers push the limits making some 3d experiments or excellend 2d games in Javascript.
Tetris is well know game, possibly more then 2 decades passed after first version, and now I see it in Javascript, great implementaion and very playable, Tetris is not so processor demanding game. Great stuff, check it out (there is also link to the older version at the page)…

Ultrakillz – FPS game in Flash [VIDEO]

From Ultrakillz website : “Ultrakillz is a Free to play, Real-time Multiplayer First Person shooting game created for Flash player version 9 which is heavily influenced by (but not affiliated with) our favourite games Counter-Strike (in particular the custom AWP and Deagle maps) Call of Duty 4 and Quake 3 Arena.”

Gameplay teaser video:

It looks amazing, it’s still closed for public but you can add your e-mail to the waiting list and pray it come out soon so we can make some impressive Rempage moments. This will surely rock the Flash Gaming scene and expand views of possibility of AS3. Hopefully it will be playable and smooth just as it is in demo.

Top 10 Games of 2007 on WIRED – one is made in Flash :D

I like this end of the year compilation stuff… From music albums to movies and games of course.
Wired.com made a list of Top 10 Games of 2007. List is good and Desktop Tower Defence made in the list.
It’s not great because it’s made in Flash, it’s because author made it interesting of course but fact that flash is popular can be seen by this too… Hopefully Flash will be more and more interesting platform and it will push forward that already popular side of Flash with hardware acceleration…

The FWA – People’s Choice Award 2007

The FWA – People’s Choice Award 2007 really brings best of the year websites into focus now. I have no doubt to who my vote goes. It is “Get the glass” masterpiece. It’s mostly because of the impact. There have been 3d + flash websites before but this one made many people amazed. My friends who are good at 3D were like “Let’s do something like this” and I guess that was reaction of many many people out there. Graphics is great, concept is great and that’s why the game is great.

Alternativa3D engine demo

Alternativa Game is cooking something very good in their pot. Their new game engine demo looks great. Take a look at their blogpost.

Their words about engine: “This is technological demoversion of an Alternativa3D Flash engine, which was made within Alternativa MMORPG development. This engine uses Flash player version 9 as a platform, and, as far as we know, works in all full-flash-supporting browsers. Alternativa3D is optimized with upcoming game features in mind, and utilizes some non-trivial solutions to show game graphics quickly.”
