My First Game : Wheel Of Death

Screenshot : Wheel of Death

Feeling pretty excited I uploaded my first game; Wheel of Death onto Kongregate a couple of hours ago.  If you aren't familiar with Kongregate it's the king (King Kong : apologies for that) of the new wave of web 2.0 social gaming sites.  If you like playing trivial and annoying Flash games (like the one I just added) it's a great place to go.  The game was built using the 2D Physics Engine Box2DFlashAS3.  This was my preferred engine when I did a review of the available engines back in January.  I haven't written much about Flash 2D Physics since them mostly because I've been spending most of my spare time building this game.  I think it's still a bit buggy.  But for a first game I'm pretty happy.  I've got a few pressing work committments.  But hopefully I'll have time to get a few more of the bugs out and blog about the experience of building it with Box2DFlashAS3 in the near future.

Oh man that game is addictive. I just emailed it off to my daughters and my niece for some time-wasting fun :-)

Great work man!

Talk Jockey,

glad you enjoyed the game. I have a new game in a similar vein which is nearly complete. I'll probably have it out in a couple of weeks.
