I have a related question:

With Adobe's future platform emphasis turning to Apollo, will Director still
be supported as a platform?

Subject: [casual_games] Question About Adobe/Macromedia Director as
aDevelopment Platform....

Hello,

I am interested in hearing educated opinions about the use of 
Adobe/Macromedia Director as a casual game development platform. I have some

experience programming in Director (but have not used it for a number of 
years), and recognize that many casual games feature a Web demo, as well as 
a downloadable version. Director/Shockwave would allow the same modified 
code to be used for both.

To any persons with experience with Director:

Does the program offer a rich enough development platform and scripting 
language for Puzzle or Action games? I'm familiar with Lingo, but do not 
know how the language has developed in the past few years to address the 
needs of casual game developers.

Any opinions would be much appreciated.

T.R.
