HTML5 Suika Watermelon Game

Talking about Dungeon Raid game, Actionscript 3, Flash and Game development.

Some days ago I posted the Dungeon Raid iPhone game engine made with Flash and AS3 but unfortunately it suffered of a little bug in the backtracking engine.

It was just one missing line, line 68 in the following script:

package {
	import flash.display.Sprite;
	import flash.events.MouseEvent;
	import flash.geom.Point;
	public class Main extends Sprite {
		private var fieldWidth:int=8;// field width, in tiles
		private var fieldHeight:int=6;// field height, in tiles
		private var tileSize:int=80;// tile size, in pixels
		private var tileVector:Vector.;
		private var visitedVector:Vector.;// vector to store all visited tiles, as Point as it's easy to store x and y coordinate
		public function Main() {
			// adding tiles on stage and initializing tile vector
			tileVector=new Vector.();
			for (var i:int=0; i();
				for (var j:int=0; j();
			visitedVector.push(new Point(i,j));
			// highlighting the tile and setting it as "taken";
			tileVector[i][j].tile.gotoAndStop(2);
			tileVector[i][j].taken=true;
			// updating listeners, removing mouse down, adding mouse move and mouse up;
			stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,startDrawing);
			stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,drawing);
			stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopDrawing);
		}
		private function drawing(e:MouseEvent):void {
			// getting tile
			var i:int=Math.floor(mouseX/tileSize);
			var j:int=Math.floor(mouseY/tileSize);
			// checking if we are inside the sensible area
			var distX:Number=mouseX-(i*tileSize+tileSize/2);
			var distY:Number=mouseY-(j*tileSize+tileSize/2);
			// 1225 is 35^2, where 35 is the radius of the sensible area
			if (distX*distX+distY*distY<1225) {
				// now checking if we moved from the last tile visited
				if (i!=visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].x || j!=visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].y) {
					// now, let's see if we moved to an adjacent tile. we don't want the player to jump here and there
					if (Math.abs(i-visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].x)<=1 && Math.abs(j-visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].y)<=1) {
						// ok we moved, now let's see if we are backtracking:
						if (visitedVector.length>1&&i==visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].x&&j==visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].y) {
							// we are backtracking, so we have to remove the last element from visitedVector and turn off the tile
							var backtrackPoint:Point=visitedVector.pop();
							tileVector[backtrackPoint.x][backtrackPoint.y].tile.gotoAndStop(1);
							tileVector[backtrackPoint.x][backtrackPoint.y].taken=false;
							removeChild(tileVector[backtrackPoint.x][backtrackPoint.y].path);
							// the infamous bug line
							tileVector[backtrackPoint.x][backtrackPoint.y].path=null;
							// adding the arrow to latest path
							if (visitedVector.length>=2) {
								tileVector[visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].x][visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].y].path.gotoAndStop(tileVector[visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].x][visitedVector[visitedVector.length-1].y].path.currentFrame+8);
							}
						}
						else {
							// we aren't backtracking, let's see if the new tile was already taken (illegal move);
							if (! tileVector[i][j].taken) {
								// it's a new tile, let's insert it into the vector and highlight it
								visitedVector.push(new Point(i,j));
								tileVector[i][j].tile.gotoAndStop(2);
								tileVector[i][j].taken=true;
								// then place the path movieclip
								tileVector[i][j].path=new Path();
								tileVector[i][j].path.x=visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].x*tileSize+tileSize/2;
								tileVector[i][j].path.y=visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].y*tileSize+tileSize/2;
								// showing the right frame with arrow
								var iDiff:int=i-visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].x;
								var yDiff:int=j-visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].y;
								switch (iDiff) {
									case -1 :
										tileVector[i][j].path.gotoAndStop(Math.abs(yDiff)*(4+3*yDiff)+1+8);
										break;
									case 0 :
										tileVector[i][j].path.gotoAndStop(5+2*yDiff+8);
										break;
									case 1 :
										tileVector[i][j].path.gotoAndStop(5+yDiff+8);
										break;
								}
								addChild(tileVector[i][j].path);
								// removing arrow from previous path
								if (visitedVector.length>=3) {
									tileVector[visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].x][visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].y].path.gotoAndStop(tileVector[visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].x][visitedVector[visitedVector.length-2].y].path.currentFrame-8);
								}
							}
							else {
								// invalid move, stop drawing;
								stopDrawing(null);
							}
						}
					}
				}
			}
		}
		private function stopDrawing(e:MouseEvent):void {
			// updating listeners
			stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,startDrawing);
			stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,drawing);
			stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,stopDrawing);
			// turning off all tiles
			for (var i:int=0; i

Moreover, I added eight new frames to Path movieclip in order to show the arrow at the end of the path like in the original game.
