More Doodling...



Large version.

Hrm...

EDIT: How interesting! Originally the boxes were getting stuck halfway down the screen. They are meant to check if they're at the stage's height (though I did account for the height of the box). In this case, the stage is 600 px high. But the embedded .swf is resized to 400 x 300. The .swf seems to have gotten its bounds set as 400 x 300, but still saw half the .swf height as...300!? Bizarre! Easily fixed with hardcoding the y>600, though.

Alternate Tribes



Full version.

Here's an alternate version of the Tribes piece. Different music, the tribe members now smile as they play louder, and an issue was fixed where if you grabbed a tribe member when it was in the center, it was possible to have him get "stuck" on your cursor. This was due to the fact that a shrinking tribe member could potentially get away from your mouse cursor. No contact with the cursor means no mouse release!

On a side note, I'm more than happy to make more alternate versions if people have suggestions or want to submit 8-16 track compositions (in .wav format if you please).
