Ninja Game Wednesday # 2

No new ninja games came out this week, so I am featuring a game that came out a little while ago for the Mochi 60 seconds or less contest.  So with out further ado here it is Ninja Cubes

Test your ninja skills! Collect as many Ninja Cubes as you can in 60 seconds!

Basically you have to move your mouse over has many ninja has you can in 60 seconds, the level designs are well thought out and make this a top notch game.   So lets see what kinda of ninja you are and try and beat the top score.

Free tools for the flash game developer

So Santa didn’t give you that copy of Adobe CS4 Master Collection.  Or for that matter just a plain copy of Flash CS4 would have been nice.  Well not to worry  here is a list of everything you need to get up and running on making Flash Games.  So without further ado here is the complete list of tools.

• Adobe Flex SDK if you don’t get anything else on this list  you are going to need to get this.  This is complier that will turn all your ActionScript  into games (swfs)
• FlashDevelop is the premiere free IDE for ActionScript, some will even argue that it is better then Adobe Flex Builder which at the time of this article went for $249 for the standard version.  I would recommend getting this even if you do have  Flash CS3/CS4 cause it beats the Flash’s internal IDE hands down.
• Well you need something to create/edit those images right well you have a couple of choices here. You can go with paint.net or gimp, and when you want to create some vector graphics you have Inkscape.
• Well you done made your awesome game now you want to make some money$$$ off of it.  Well look no further than Mochi API, with this you can place ads, micro transactions, leaderboards, and live updates.  Sign up here

So even if Santa wasn’t so nice to you get ready to make some games cause all the tools are out there, and best of all they are free.  I am going to be posting some tutorials on how to use these free tools to make games.  So until next time see you later.
