Well, it’s about time I released another application right? If anyone has ever played Bloom on the iphone, I’m sure you’ll recognize my port from iphone to table.

If you’re not familiar with bloom, it’s a very simple music creation application. Press anywhere on the screen to create circles that grow and ‘bloom.’ As they fade out and re-appear, they play a note. The note is based on the x-axis. As you move right, the notes go higher.

How to use:

-Press on screen (mouse, touch, multi-touch)
-Rollover/touch/click already created circles to remove them and their sound
-Press the upper left ‘clear’ button to clear all circles and sounds on screen.

I’ve posted a browser version here: http://www.nuigroup.com/bloom/bloom.swf You can also find source (bloom_src.zip) and binary (bloom.zip) attachments below.

The source folder should include everything you need to run the application. You don’t need to copy anything into your current AS3 directory. I’ve commented the Main.as file very well and it should give a good look into making simple applications with the AS3 Touch API.

Thanks to Christian for the background color tweening effect and helping release.

very cool!

Just upgraded to CS4 today.

Can’t wait to try out the new 3D support!

Just tried it, well done Seth.  You and your music

If you are in the business of porting iPhone apps to MT tables, Labyrinth would be a nice app to do. It just need some accelerators but it really would be great to play the game with one person on every corner of the multi touch table

Thanks guys

lesouvage: I’m not too much in the business of porting iphone apps hehe. I just thought this would be a good/simple one to make. I have labyrinth on my iphone, but it’d be weird to play without the accelerometers I think.

Hey, nice, Seth! Works really well on my mtmini!

Wow!  I haven’t seen the original iPhone one, but this is really cool!  I could play this for hours

Does it use Pre-Recorded sounds, or does AS3 have some built in mechanism for emitting sounds?

Thanks xelapond

It’s using prerecorded sounds. You can see the mp3s in the download package. Flash does have some real-time audio generation now, but haven’t played with that yet.

Hey really nice, great job cerupcat, its really fun to play

Seth, it’s simple apps like this that have me hooked for hours! Well done mate, as usual

Keep inspiring us all

Thanks fairlane and Sharath! I can’t take the credit since I ported it from the wonderful ‘Bloom’ iphone app which I spent many minutes playing hehe.

Nice one Seth! thank you.

if I press command+F It’s in full screen mode, but it shows only a quarter of the app how can I get the real full screen mode?.

this is real fun!

Mesmerizing!
My office enjoys this
Great work seth.

awwwesome! always inspiring to see more music apps!

Congrats on another amazing application.  All of your projects with music and sound are stunning.  Keep up the good work.

@ Josue Ibanez: good point. I’ll have to make a resize function so the background resizes. The whole thing should still be clickable, only the colored background will be original size before the fullscreen.

Thanks mattl, jordanh, aidil
