Since June 2011, I've been working on version of tower defense game for iOS game called Ah Long Attack. Initially the game was developed for a client as a promotion for their upcoming TV series but funding problem has shifted the focus of the game to be developed it as a mobile game.

The prototype of the game in Flash version has been finished on July 2011 and I've been able to convert it iOS version using Flash CS 5.  There has been performance issue as the iOS version isn't as fast as Flash version and I spend quite a time to optimize it. At some point I've been trying to learn XCode and Cocos 2D to convert the game code in AS 3 to Objective-C so the game can be run as a native apps but the complexity of the game has made the effort unsuccessful.

The Flash version can be played on this link - http://www.edykajang.com/ahlongattack/ I don't integrate preloader into the game so you might have to wait for the blank screen until the game is finished loading. If you have iPhone, iPod or iPad, you can also download the iOS version on this link - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ah-long-attack/id487210091?mt=8

This is just an early version of the game as it only contain just 3 levels. They might be plan to expand the game and add more features in the future. Stay tuned for the update of the game.

The reason why I'm removing online feature is to make the game accessible to be played on other websites. Limiting this highly potential game to be played on a single website is simply not a good idea. Flash game should be played and hosted on as many websites as possible.

Nevertheless, my attempt to make the game has online feature was not a failure because the knowledge I gained implementing it has been applied to Adven Quest and Math Quest Facebook game. There is more radical changes along the way especially with more attention to User Interface design to make the game flow more streamlined and easier to navigate.

Nevertheless, I will help to develop Math Quest to become one of the best Flash application developed by Malaysian. This will help Hezmedia to get more Flash outsourcing job and to get more attention from investor whose interested to invest in game company.

There's a lot of potential in Math Quest game - probably the first Flash game integrating full featured game with education element through it Globe of Knowledge interface. Feel free to test this game at http://www.math-quest.com/development/

For Hezmedia team, thanks guys for the experience. It's been such a good experience working for you guys but eventually I have to move on.

Thanks to Karen Wilkinson who provide some suggestion to improve Dream City:Life Events game. One of her interesting feedback is to integrate some sort of diary background to the game to give illusion that player is playing some sort of diary game. Hah, that's a good idea! Why didn't I thought about that before?

The idea is so good that I took my time working on implementing it once I receive the feedback. After working on it for several hours, the result is well within my expectation. Unfortunately I have to get rid of attire modification feature because there is no space to put it on the new background interface. I can put the feature on future version if there is some request on it.

Once again, thanks Karen for your feedback. You're simply rocks
