Research into techniques

As we have such little time, we are now having to work at a much higher rate than we'd like.
We have both been researching different ways of making a digital organism have some form of AI and have found it rather difficult to find anything of relivence to our Adobe Flash rabbit.
We have both however found a lot of info on flash games. This means we can start work on the interface and after this is complete work on coding the rabbit to have AI after this is done.


We have found how to make an object track the mouse in a flash tutorial. This means that once we have an acceptable rabbit drawn in Adobe Photoshop we have a very very basic organism, the start of, hopefully, of A Life!

Below is a link to a mouse follow flash online. It is somewhat similar to the one we have designed. However ours turns to follow the movements of the mouse. This means the rabbit is always facing forwards, and not walking like a crab sideways.
