Flash 5 now with native iPhone support

Target Platforms Mobile

Hello all,
well o was on MAX this Year and was surprised and shocked about the announcement of Flash 5 by end of this Year as a free beta with iPhone export.
There where some Demos how to and it look’s like it is optimized for 2D Games on iPhone… There really run very fast with a lot of ActionScript3 !!! You can also use all iPhone specific techniques like accelerator etc…
I think @ moment it is very interesting for 2D Games and could also be a big concurrence for Unity iPhone… because of the Prize and the wide range of Flash Dev’s …
BUT Flash suck’s when it comes to 3D. And that’s the point for me personal… i prefer the 3D Space because 2D was yesterday ;-).

What do you think about it ?

Here is a link to a Video Demo:

Horay another thread about this!

Summary of all the other threads…

  1. The export will suck, and it’ll struggle to do anything more complicated than a bouncing ball, even on a 3GS.

  2. Lol, its flash… Not even Flex.

  3. Taking the previous two things into account, expect a huge army of fart/stupid soundboards to hit the app store… Waaaait a second… Is it out already? :slight_smile:

hehe … there are surely things that make sense … for example I would love to see the SFS Pro Admin tool beeing ported to the iphone muahaha :wink:

thats no problem - using flashdevelop as IDE and Flash CS5 as building engine → great dev environment
