In a previous tutorial from Michael James Williams (MJW), you could move the skull with the mouse and aim with the keyboard. In this tutorial we will make the mouse movement a bit complex, but you will not be able to shoot.

This tutorial builds on Mouse Movement, Keyboard Shooting — only this time, you’ll learn how to do the opposite!

Fabio from Animassauro has put together this awesome game based on the AS3 Avoider Game Tutorial.
It’s called DinoScape; you play as a little green dinosaur trying to fight off eyeless monsters so that you can build a spaceship. Also, your main weapon is a giant HB pencil.
Click here to play it. It’s really awesome! Not only are the graphics amazing (check out the Animassauro showreel for more of this), but the gameplay is very different to the basic avoider game.
Fabio comments that “it’s a little game, but for myself, it was a great experience to learn more about game programming and actionscript.”
Thanks Fabio
