Flash on iOS 60FPS

Flash on iOS 60FPS

Looks like they're using Adobe Air, which I've tried previously and was no faster than HTML5. So I don't see any reason for us to change :)

In Chinese, it says: "Other mountain's stone can polish my jade."

looks like Flash refuse to die <img src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

surprisingly that demo runs really smooth though (with no stuttering at all),

i haven't seen any HTML5 game demo that run smoothly on iPad like that, hopefully soon ?

That's the new Air version. They revamped the entire thing to run at 60fps on mobile. It appears flash is currently ahead of HTML5 on iOS and Android, while HTML5 needs converters and stuff to run at barelly acceptable speeds. Damn, hard times :(

I was under the impression Adobe pulled the plug on Flash development.

Wait, since when does flash work on an iOS device?

I think the big news has been missed somewhere along the line... flash on iOS... WHAT?! SINCE WHEN?!

Technically, you are compiling flex code in ObjC code, allowing you to use "flash" on iOS. The Starling framework is powerful, allowing you to use 2D bitmap accelerated by the GPU (since they are 3D textured quads, in fact).

And now Adobe will start charging a percentage of revenue of every 'console quality' game made with it's tech :) Yay! -Sarcastic-

Heh, yep - Adobe want to take a 9% cut now:

That means "console quality" games on iOS will lose 39% revenue - 30% to Apple and 9% to Adobe. Versus 0% for WebGL on the open web. I think Adobe just did us a favour.

FWIW the directCanvas acceleration for C2 on appMobi is looking good - some of our demos have hit 60 fps.

The 9% will only have to paid on games that earn over $50K. Looks like Adobe is going to try to give HTML5 a fight.

Wow, that was looking good <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle"> . I guess that was with the help of WebGL... I hope it's also capable of running some complicated code.

Lately I've been trying my best to create something cool and easy for my android tablet, but currently Phonegap and AppMobi are just too slow.

Now that Flash is slowly committing suicide with their "fees that will make people come up with fresh innovative ideas" as they say, HTML5 only needs to get alot faster and then it's done.
