This month we have Zachary Knight of Divine Knight Gaming and the Oklahoma Game Development blog speaking about 2D game development with one of his favorite tools:



In this talk, I will demonstrate the basics of creating 2D games using the HaxeFlixel API. More specifically, I'll demonstrate sprite animation, basic enemy AI, collision detection, player input and more. This is an exciting technology for game development because it allows cross-platform compiling of your code.



PL Studios (http://plstudios.com/) (best known for Digital Tutors (http://digitaltutors.com/)) is sponsoring our meeting space at their offices. GoldFire Studios (http://goldfirestudios.com/) will be sponsoring free pizza and soda. Come hungry and ready to talk game development! Also, if you are working on anything, bring it with you to show with the rest of the group, we set aside time at the end of each meeting (free Unity3D t-shirts for presenters).



PS: Don't forget that we also have a Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/okgamedevs/) that is great for sharing with the rest of the group!
