It did look like just a video, not an actual demo....

The fact that they use Away3D for comparison is very cool. Being compared to commercial / proprietary software isn't something that happens to every Open Source project out there, so I would say that is a testament to how good Away3D really is. According to their funding press release "..,10,000 building blocks known as polygons ... [the] ... level of quality is close to what you would find in a high-end console game". Won't $3.5 Million in funding buy you something better than a Dreamcast? I like Ninjas, but these seem like the american kind. You know the ones that look cool in movies but can't fight for real ;-) That said - I'm sure they'll build a kick-ass engine once they get to it, but such claims are pretty lame when all you have to show is some 2D Facebook games (that both are copies of bestselling games from competitors) and a video of a knight? Did I miss something or did they have an actual running demo there? J On Dec 12, 6:38 pm, Craig Murray <[email protected]> wrote:
Have you guys seen this? Rocket Ninja has a 3D engine and they are claiming how much better than Away3D it is. Thoughts? http://www.rocketninja.com/Home/About/Articles/Shr3D-.aspx
