Good tutorials for the awe6 game framework? [closed]

Question

Just recently I stumbled upon the awe6 game framework for Haxe and I want to give it a try, but the only "tutorial" on the site is a prebuilt FlashDevelop project template that also appears to be quite complex already.

I've tried to dissect the template but some things are quite weird and I can't figure out why the template seems to work, so I'd rather prefer a tutorial (or at least a very simple "Hello World" example) that sets everything up and runs without assuming a specific IDE. I've also tried Google but almost all of the results were leading back to the FlashDevelop template.

Are there any tutorials/examples/simple demos with source code for awe6 that are not burried in a IDE specific template and are step-by-step and/or otherwise easy to understand?

I would also like to see some more examples, even if its just integration with another simple framework to create spaceinvaders or something. awe6 looks amazing but has a huge learning curve for people who make casual browser based games. – Longlegged

Answer 1

We are working on a suite of tutorials (and videos). In the meanwhile please see this very simple Hello World example which leads on to the templates (now also available as Linux bash scripts):

2+ years later: still just a hello world example... – Peta

Answer 2

This isn't exactly an answer, but the framework's author Rob Fell did a presentation a few weeks ago at the WWX conference:

• slides
• recording
