20/02/24 New game added: Straight Line Trebuchet. I've wanted to make something with straight line graphs for a while and I'm pleased with how this turned out.
I plan to improve the graphics and animations in the future, plus add fractional gradients, but it works well for now.
13/02/24 I've added a page with 4 of my old Flash games here.
These could be useful if there's a topic not covered elsewhere. I may upload a few more in the future.
The games need to be downloaded to use and include the game and Flash player in an exe file.
09/02/24 I've just uploaded Fraction Burst, which has 10 challenging levels. Working out equivalent fractions is more difficult than I was expecting, but I've kept the fractions simple and hopefully got the balance of difficulty for the game and the maths about right.
15/10/23 A few changes. I originally set the resolution of games to 1000x600 as I thought that was enough and that it would help performance. Performance is no issue at all so I have gone through and increase the resolution of most games to 1920x1080.
09/10/23 I've added Mean Darts, which has worked out well. There are currently 20 levels, but I want to try random levels either after these or instead of these. I've made the full screen button bigger on mobiles and will do the same for the other games soon.
29/09/23 New game added: Area Challenge. The logic to work out if triangles overlap was more complicated than I expected, but it seems to work well.
14/09/23 I've fixed the bearings game so it works on mobiles now. The buttons are still a bit small but it seems quite usable. I've also been reading up on CSS and will hopefully make the whole site look better on mobiles soon.
12/09/23 I've added a highscore table to Cartesian Alien. It uses PHP and Mysql, which are quite new to me, but it seems pretty reliable so far. I've also done a bit of general tidying up on the site.
07/09/23 I have just added a bearings game on the activities page. This was something I had previously made in Flash, but this version has a few improvements. In particular, you can now choose the boat speed by dragging the throttle at the side. The icebergs don't currently move as this could lead to the boat or the man getting stuck, but I may add this in the future.
04/09/23 I have just finished an online Python course, so I am now going to put some time into Flashy Maths. Some bits I want to work on are:
  • Tidying up the general website, adding some pictures of the activities
  • Improving Fraction Masher by adding more levels and more features
  • Using php for some parts of the website
  • Recreating my bearings game in Javascript
