Hype

Posted on | May 25, 2010 | No Comments

Joshua Davis and Branden Hall have released a fantastic ActionScript 3 library for visual programming. Not be be confused with a tween engine, Hype is a collection of tools which greatly simplify the task of programming and combining complex visual effects and behaviors.

I’ve only had the briefest of fiddles, barely scratching the surface, but so far i’m really impressed by the ease of use, the range of tools available, and the overall performance of the engine. I’ve posted a couple of samples to whet your appetite here (non-interactive) and here (wiggle your mouse for some action).

Sample 1
