Final Ninja
I'm quite pleased with this one and I hope people enjoy it:
Final Ninja
It started out as a sort of cross between the Dirk Valentine and Dangle engines. Then on the way to pick up my usual lunchtime Thai noodles the ninja theme suggested to me that he should be able to turn invisible as well. This is also my first project in AS3. The most tricky part of the transition is that they've completely buggered up animation control in AS3. Having complex nested animations is no longer possible due to gotoAndStop being processed at the end of a frame. I've also not noticed the fabled speed increase everyone is speaking of (and even in Processing I was a total speed whore). It is however refreshing to know when I'm being a bad programmer, and you can trick AS3 into behaving like AS2 when you need to.
