Hi all, Here's my entry for the destruction challenge.

I used a lot of new tricks, quite a few headscratchers and hairpullers along the way, but I'm pleased with the final result. Another very usefull challenge, steadily expanding my box of tricks.

I'd love to hear about performance, I'm working on a crawling laptop and was only able to test on another very fast machine. So I had to guestimate the average speed of things.

Try it here!
This is a direct link to the .swf, so it's fullscreen and you can resize it with your browser window.

[EDIT] There is a little easter egg in there, let me know if you found it!

Very nice entry mate! Cool idea and lovely effects!
Well done and thanks for the greets!

Oh yeah and as far as I can tell performance is fine on my 5 yo. Celeron.

This is addictive, could watch those letters burn all day.

Thanks all!

This was another productive challenge for me, I hate bouncing off of angles because of the laborious calculations. For this demo I tried an idea I had for quite some time, turns out it was very easy to implement.

I put a ring of non-transparent pixel checks around each ball and precalulated the balls bounce angle for every one. Used a similar setup for spreading the fire.

Glad you like the results!

It's a very effective technique, and the way the fire spreads is pretty natural looking.

Now THAT'S how you do a proper fire effect in Flash. That was full of suprises.

Kirl · « **Reply #11 on:** March 26, 2011 »

Thanks CK, the main secret to the fire effect is setting the blendmode of the fire particles to additive.

flameParticle.blendMode = "add";

Pretty nice, I could play it for hours

Very well done! I even managed to get to the final Easter egg!

I haven't seen that property before - I'll experiment with it. Thanks for pointing it out, K+

This is great! Might get a minus point for destroying our own logo though!
