A year after the release of Zos, I have dusted off the old coding machine (brain) to get at it again. This is my most ambitious project ever, and it is the first (!) time I am coding in AS3. Yes, unsurprisingly both Zos and Wilt were coded in AS2. I say unsurprisingly because of the plethora of (justified) complaints about the performance. I'm the first to admit that the coding was poor and there was no real excuse for using an outdated language to begin with.
I'm learning AS3 by doing. Past attempts at learning by reading and following along in a book have failed woefully, as it is just. so. boring. I've hit some bumps and debugging some errors can be infuriating, but so far coding in AS3 is going super well.
Please follow me here for more updates, and 8BitSkull on Twitter for more casual posts.

Glad to hear it, brotha. AS3 is the way to go!
