Brainstorm Ideas for my senior project.
One idea I'm considering is using tiles in Flash for gaming purposes. A couple of sites have some good information about tile-based games as well as tutorials.
http://www.tonypa.pri.ee/tbw/start.html -- This link provides a good idea about why tile-based games are used and some of the steps involved in creating tile-based games.
http://www.strille.net/tutorials/part1_scrolling.php --This site provides a downloadable .fla tutorial file to allow the user to see the code working as well as a way to modify and experiment with tile-based maps.
http://oos.moxiecode.com/ --This site provides many examples of tile-based games that the developer wrote as well a couple tutorials.
http://www.strille.net/works/misc/platform_demo/ --This site shows a demo created in flash that emulates a popular Sonic the Hedgehog game.
http://www.sylvaniah.com/ --This site has created a game using this tile-based system.

About Me
- Jeffrey K. Price
- Currently, I work as a Flash and Web Developer for the Creative Circle, the Creative Group, and the Rowland Group.
I have an Interactive Media Design Bachelors of Fine Arts Degree from The Art Institute of Dallas as well as an Associate of Applied Arts Degree in Computer Animation.
While studying Interactive Media Design, I also interned at a Dallas company called Reflect Systems, where I gained valuable skills in creating live and on demand streaming web casts. In this role, I learned the proprietary software used to link web casts to web cast skins as well as supervised a live web cast held at the school. I was also able to work with the Flash Media Server 2 to create a streaming FLV player using Flash and XML.
In addition to my 8 months as a Junior Technical Developer at InSite Interactive and my internship experience, I have 3 years of experience as a Teaching Assistant at The Art Institute of Dallas where I assisted the instructors in teaching students a variety of software programs including Flash, XHTML, and JavaScript.

Jeff, you have done a lot of review of the situation and it looks like a good project. Chad and I discussed this also and we both feel that the smaller portion or section of a game would be most appropriate.
I would like for you to continue your brainstorm just to gather some related ideas for a problem to solve as I think the discipline will help you to become clearer about the real problem that exists, as well as have back up options to consider.
For now I am ok with your direction.
The next assignment due next week is to complete the project template. This is the document titled "Project Proposal Outline". It is close to an outline of the final project, but what is intended here is to present a brief "pre-proposal" (2-3) pages answering each of the questions in the outline. It does not need to be highly researched at this point, however, do not make statements that you do not know if there is previous research to back it up - in other words, don't just fake the statements. This pre-proposal will be reviewed by your committee and serves as the ok or not ok to proced with your project plan.
Also there are two readings that offer some flavor of new technologies, to keep you focused on where things are heading.
