Talking about Perfectionism game, Flash and Game development.

I found this game by Jason Roher and I found it very interesting.

It’s a game about the trap of perfectionism Jason made for The Escapist magazine. Starting with 100 moves and zero points, you have to score as much as you can by shuffling rows and columns in order to match green squares with green rings. There are 21 levels, and it’s up to you to decide if trying to get more points out of a level, or moving on to the next one…

Jason made the game with Game Maker, so you have to download it on your computer in order to play it.

But what really impressed me was this Jason wish:

Now if only Game Maker was open-source, or at least platform independent, I’d be in heaven

Well, Game Maker isn’t platform independent, but Flash not only is platform independent… it can also be played online!

So I decided to create Perfectionism game in flash, improving graphics, adding sounds and a leaderboard.

Starting from tomorrow, I will guide you to a step-by-step guide that will cover everything about the creation of this game, and I will also release a pdf booklet with this experience.

Moreover, I wrote Jason an email asking him the permission to monetize the game and share with him the first month revenue.

Meanwhile, download the game and tell me how much did you score!
