Hey guys, I've started working on my first game in Flash and was wondering if I could get some opinions on how it looks so far.

Check it out -

It's extremely far from finished so it may seem somewhat like Danny's Stick Avalanche (http://www.k2xlgames.com/games/Avalanche2/driverFinalAvalanche2.php), but it will will be very different by the end. Just wanted to get some opinions on the look so far. :)

Thats looking nice so far dude! Im not sure what you intend to add on and stuff, but ill just say try adding some inertia to your character. Maybe even add different surfaces like ice and dirt to make the character slow or slide around and stuff.

Nice start, make sure you post the finished project.

Aww Level 3 only :( Well its very challenging i wanna see the final product too.

~Suggestions~
Maybe a preloader would be nice because i was staring at a white screen for 10 seconds :) If you do have one... then somethings wrong with my comp. :puzzle:

Hey, I'm pretty sure the preloader works, it may just be imageshack or may be your computer..

I like thte music. Question: For makingg the rain, you use the x.attachMovie()? And every ball have a... hitTest()? or a Math.sqrt(x*x+y*y) kind of limit detector?

bandinopla - I don't really understand what youre asking, but all I really did was create a function to find a random x value, then plug that value in another function to create each enemy. And I used hitTest to check whether the enemy had hit the char. Hope that answers you! :)

signifer123 - Glad you like it man!

P.S. Incase you guys were wondering, the music is from one of those DDR, Beatmania type games, not sure which one. It's called "Infinite Prayer" by "L.E.D. feat. GORO".
