2D Particle System with AGAL and Stage3D

[ Well commented article + source code ] 

From OutsideOfSociety:

“For a recent project there was a need for lots of particles, in Flashplayer 10. Here´s some of the experimentation that came out of that. There are no preloaders, so just wait for something to show(some are quite heavy).”

Away3D & Flint Particles

[ Demo #1 - with source code ]

[ Demo #2 ] 

From Mathias Horrigan:

“The power of Stage3D, works for both 2D and 3D! New features such as mouse lock, right click, and middle click events. The Starling framework is recommended for 2D games. The new flash will also have sprite sheet tool built in allowing you to export as any extension! Also a particle designer. Gives us a great idea where flash is going.”

“I create particle demo with Starling Framework. The wave graphics is made by Frocessing in Spark project, the particle graphics is made by Starling Framework.”
