// The Roping Pen
This game was my first major flash project, we had done exercises to learn aspects of flash and ActionScript, but this was the cumulative project for the quarter. It was challenging because it was my first time working in flash, and looking back now, there are much better ways I could have implemented different aspects. But hindsight is 20/20 especially when your knowledge of a subject grows. Overall, I learned a lot about using mathematical equations to impact movement, and about the basics of hit-testing and using timers. It was a good learning experience and helped a lot when I went to build another game a few quarters later.
