Thanks, Malte. I've downloaded the AnimationEngine trial and will take a look this afternoon. :)
At this time, I am just playing around, so I will be developing on Mac OS X for deployment on same. If I get really crazy, I might see how my ideas run on my BootCamp Windows install. Not looking at any mobile deployments for now. I did lots of arcade-style development back in the day—and by that, I mean almost 30 years ago using Player-Missile Graphics in both BASIC and machine language on my Atari 800XL. (Wow, I'm old.) I also did my share of heavy-lifting with HyperCard in the late '90s, so I'm extremely comfortable with the LC core concepts. Just bridging the gap by trying a few fun idea. I'd like to try a side-scroller with parallax and some other challenges. Thanks in advance to any other ideas you all might have. J.
