As someone who built and maintained a large-scale Flex app for 5 years, none of Flash's advantages are worth the countless unpredictable difficulties you WILL encounter. It's not a stable platform. Move on.
Maybe the story is entirely different for games, but I can't see how it could be that different.
- ken_railey 14y ago> built and maintained a large-scale Flex app I see your problem right there :) Also, I am not aware of any stable platform for game development. Browsers and iOS have both changed a lot in the last 5 years as well.
- Liongadev 14y agoFlash and Flex are EXTREMLY stable and easy to maintain for my projects. Maybe it is not Flash/Flexs Fault but yours ?
- calinet6 14y agoWe were trying to build on a scale Flash just couldn't handle well, so in that sense, yes, we made a poor decision in going with the platform. But it looked good from the start, it was only after scaling that we ran into issues.
