Fun Flow Studios

Alien SOS is a new game developed by me (programming and concept) and richard postelnicu (artwork and testing)

It is fun strategy game where you have to guide an alien back to its space spaceship by removing and adding blocks of the game, Alien SOS had been in development since the summer, although about half the time was waiting for sponsorship and getting the deal finalized.
It’s probaly my favourite game out of the ones i’ve made and I also had a lot of fun developing it.

Here’s a preview image:

Out in a couple of days!!!

Sorry for the lack of posts for last month, We’ve been quite busy developing a new game that will be be released within the next few months, meanwhile here’s a small game that we created in a bit less than a day.
It was sponsored by minijuegos.com for a primary license meaning that I can still sell sitelocked versions after its release.

Over the last two years the flash industry has changed dramatically, thanks to a few websites; small flash games have become a massive business that keeps on growing, this is largely because of the increase in portals/competition, high quality games and more people going online for flash games. A few years ago the only way to make money on a flash game was to find a sponsor, it would require e-mailing alot of the popular portals and most of time you would not even get a response or if you did the sponsorship offer wouldn’t be that much and not really worth it.
This is a post to show some of the ways you can make some money on your game.

Sponsorship:

Usually the most you can make on a game is through sponsorship, The easiest way of searching for a sponsor is to head to Flash Game License and sign up, then you just submit your game and get it in front of almost 1000 sponsors. Of course your game must be quite decent to get any sponsership offers at all, but what is great about the site is that you do not have to upload your finished version, you can ask for feedback from other developers

In my previous post I created a login screen in AS2 however in this version we’ll be creating one in AS3, which seems slightly faster, however a bit more complicated. I’ve also changed the create account script to add the ip address of the user.
Having the ip of users is useful to track down cheaters of your game. You can use an ip ban to stop the cheater playing your game, I’ll cover this in a later tutorial…

This tutorial is pretty much exactly the same as the last one(except for the script changes), So this tutorial assumes you have a way of testing out PHP and mySQL scipts, however if you need to know how to setup PHP refer back to the last login tutorial.

This is what we’ll be making…

It basically the exact same thing as the last one.

Getting started:

Step 1: Creating the flash document

Create a new flash file, select a new flash document AS 3.0.
Save this

Well done to Azure who’s maps have been at the top of the portal since the game was released!

Get ready for create your own TD 1.5! coming VERY soon

This series will cover some of the great things with flash, php and mySQL

In this tutorial we will create a user account login screen, and also a user creation screen. Using a mixture of PHP and mySQl.

preview:

this is what we’ll be making (sorry for the terrible graphics lol)

you can create an account, then you can log in with it

Step 1: Setting up PHP

Before you start creating the login screen you have to be able to run PHP, skip to step 2, if you already have a way of running a PHP file

PHP is a server side language that can’t just be run on its own like HTML, however you can install a set of tools that let you run it from your own computer (
