The first ever flixel workshop is going down right here in downtown Austin, Texas this September during GDC Austin 2009. This free 4 hour workshop will be presented by Adam "Atomic" Saltsman, and includes a rad flixel t-shirt and some yummy food.

I do not actually know what the workshop is going to cover yet. I will be prepared to talk about basic game construction techniques, procedural generation, hardcore flash graphical performance, and anything else that falls under my oddly shaped umbrella of Flash game dev knowledge. I will probably put together a topical survey sometime before the event launches to get some more direct feedback, so keep an eye out!

The workshop will be held at the Carver branch of the Austin Public Library in one of their meeting rooms on Thursday afternoon of GDC week. There is seating for roughly 25 people, and power strips, wifi, and food will be provided. All the good GDC parties are that night, so make sure to eat up before heading out on the town!

Location: 1161 Angelina St, Austin, TX

I did some polls and the design that got the most votes was this:



Shirts will be available in 4 different awesome colors, from size small to extra large, and will be free to all workshop attendees. The leftover shirts will be sold over the interwebs for...I don't know much yet. Enough to cover shipping and printing costs I guess!
