Preliminary work is being done to develop the Kroz Engine. The engine will be a flash based tool to help generate and later play text based adventure games.
The generation side will include a fully functional GUI and the playing side, obviously, wont. My hope is to create a program that will generate modules that can be distributed among a community of writers and players.
I’ve got the idea in my head. I hope I can get it down on paper.
One of the other projects I just finished was actually at a profit. I’m working an internship at Methodist Hospital building all sorts of interesting things like the front desk welcome experiance. The woman at the front desk welcomes you as the page loads and the user has a variety of options to click on that ask various general information questions about the hospital. Text flys in and is supplimented by a continuation of the video. When it goes live I’ll include a link.
It seemed like only the beginning of the semester that I didn’t know a lick of AS3. Now that I’m at the end of it, I’ve put together three projects, two of which are already under my belt, and I have another on the way.
The first project was an RSS reader, codenamed as “RSS of Despair”. (more…)
