flash网络社区游戏开发

I had a weird experience at MAX 2006 where I saw a guy presenting this small Flash-app. He had done it in Flex, followed best practices, documented, used design patterns and the whole thing required 6 classes and lots of time.

I just sat there and thought to myself - wow - what a great example of over-engineering! I would have done that in less than an hour using a single movieclip and the timeline, including talking to the backend using XML…

I love Flex and use it as my primary code editor, but there’s a bunch of things that Flash does much better and without the overhead of the framework. There’s no code in my FLAs any more though. Just a document class and custom classes on movieclips that control stuff like those animated buttons.
