A new screenshot is available at my web page, www.katymae.com. It shows the improved graphics of the set, the lights, and the superimposed logo. It also gives you a peek at what the software looks like in its development stages. Enjoy!

Todd-- It looks absolutely fantastic. Very excited for the first release of this game. It'll be a huge hit in the classroom. I've even had a few kids ask me when it'll be ready since mentioning it the first week or so of school when discussing the semester syllabus. I've told them their patience will pay off.

Wow! thats all i have to say! I can;t wait for this one. So Todd just a couple of questions for ya. So on your screen shot u said "the introduction is near competion"? does that mean the first game is almost ready to send out? or does that mean just one part of many other parts that still need to be worked on? no rush or anything i'm just trying to understand how it all works and comes togehter?
again this is so amazing and i'm sure alot of work, but u do such an awsome job keep up the good work! I alkso assume since i'm starting to see a matchgame fourm u are almost doen with pryamid or there is still lots of work left to do in pyramid? ok thanks again

All I have to say is ho-lee CRAP, that's good. So far, it looks great. I can't wait for the beta version now. ;D
Once again, I'm salivating at how awesome this program will be simply because the level of detail in there is absolutely phenomenal. I love it!

Postulating as to Todd "Holy crap he made's making some good looking stuff" Robinson's intentions:
The game logic isn't that difficult to script, at least compared to the time he constructing the set. But the introduction uses all of the animation techniques in the entire program save the trilons, which he can do easily with a variation on his Family Feud trick, and the winning dollar amount graphic, which is just blinking.
So if he can perfect the introduction, he's got the hardest part of the Flash battle licked.

Just a question for Todd. I noticed in the screenshots you have pictures for all the parts of the pyramid except the winners circle, just wondering if you are still working on that drawing as well or just hasn;t been released yet? no worries just was noticing that tonight. Again keep up the good work and well what can I say, this is just amazing!
oh and one last thing, are u planning on releasing match game before pyramid?

Even though Match Game should be easier, I don't want to release it before Pyramid. I want to essentially get Pyramid out of the way so I can focus on Match Game and a revamp of my Family Feud games.
I really want to redo all of the Family Feud graphics. It'll be awesome.

hey Todd sounds exciting, well can't wait for Pyramid then. So are you finding it difficult to get certain things to work in flash on Pyramid? What do u find the most challenging/time consuming when doing Pyramid? ok well keep up the good work and look forward to this one.

But I like the Feud graphics now lol You'll like them even better when I'm finished. Aside from correcting some problems with the graphics now, I want to get some more of the finer details included in. For example, on the original Feud board, the two flip-panel sides of the game board have different designs on them. And I want to make the blank panels look better. You know, stuff like that is what I insist on wanting to perfect. ...yes, my wife can't stand my perfectionist ways at times. Um...deano, the hardest thing right now is finding the Pyramid tape I have that will help show me how to do some of the sequences that start the game. After that, we'll be rolling.
