The joy of Flash was the ease of scripting alongside vector-based illustration with keyframe animations and audio (plus intuitive asset management, onion skinning etc. etc.). Flash was downright fun indeed!
- tombert 2y agoYeah, P5 and Processing are cool, I like them, but the part of Flash was so magical was that I sort of discovered the coding part. I pirated a copy of Flash so I could draw dumb animations, I would then convert looping animations into movie clips, and then I sort of accidentally figured out that you can attach code to those movie clips, and then I figured out how to make basic games. None of my games were that impressive, but it was ridiculously fun for me. I like P5, I've played with it, but the integration with the animation tool is what really made me love Flash. I miss it.
