  • New Features: Other Books Page and Discussion Forum

    Posted on November 11th, 2009 Chris 2 comments

    Today I’ve added two new features to this site:

    1) A top-level page featuring other Flash/game development books I recommend.  This list will grow as I get a chance to update it.

    2) A dedicated discussions forum for more in-depth topics developers would like to add.  You can begin posting today!  I’ve set up some initial categories; if there is a particular category you’d like to see added, or have any other suggestions, feel free to comment here or email me at chris [at] flashgamebook.com.

    Thank you to everyone who has shared feedback with me.  If you have a few minutes to give it, please consider reviewing the book on Amazon as well.  The ratings and positive feedback will help its sales.

    UPDATE:

    When you enter the discussion area (which is maintained by software other than WordPress), you’ll need to sign up in order to be able to post.  The link to do so is somewhat subtle in the upper right corner of the page.  You can also jump directly to the membership application page.

    1. Hi,

      I just picked up your book, and I’ve been studying Flash Game Development for a couple of months now. I see that you added a discussion forum, but I don’t see a place to sign up? I’m impressed with the thoroughness with which you explain game-related Flash/Actionscript functions, the other books I’ve read don’t even mention some of the useful classes that you cover in Chapter 4.

      Anyway, keep up the good work, and I would suggest providing a clear link to sign up for your discussion board. I look forward to using your site as a resource as I continue to study Flash development.

    2. Thanks for the feedback, Luke! I’m glad it has been helpful to you. The link to the discussion page above does kind of plop you in without much direction. There is a Sign In/Up link in the upper right of the screen. I’ve updated this post to reflect that, as well as add a direct link to the application for membership. Thanks again!
