Heh, the *package* was overkill. You can actually create full-blown
Director movies with this thing; it even attaches behaviors to
sprites on the fly, sets their props and then score-records them into
permanence.
The next rev cycle will include some kind of stand-alone player
module that lets the custom-built presentations be re-run by users
that don't have either the library or builder modules, and will
probably include at least some provision for online playback.

Me too and me too, in that order. :)

Well, your assessment might be valid if you'd actually seen the
project and knew the full details. As you don't this might be more
OOP-phobia for OOP-phobia's sake than anything else. Ha HAR!
