BSS Actionscript Package

Developed over years, matured through a long process of adding, removing rewriting, refining, curating, forgetting, re-adding, improving, collecting, enhancing, rewriting … hours of hard work by an amazing team. The Big Spaceship package is a collection of useful classes that help us to do our basic daily tasks faster so that we have more time to concentrate on the fun stuff.

Here it is, the public Big Spaceship AS3 Repository on github:

Supershapes - Coder Challenge

Charlie discovered the idea of the super formula. Since it sounded super, Charlie proposed a challenge, a coder challenge, a super coder challenge. The challenge was straightforward – create a super formula editor that creates a super shape. The other parameters being that the shape must spin in 3D (well at least look like it), the shape must be composed of at least 10,000 particles, the shape must be editable and it must be made in Flash. The winner determined by the fastest FPS, as judged by Mr Doobs stats class.
