Eh… I’m not that great at flash, but might as well give it a shot (-:

**Entry 1** - A little matrix-ish effect that says hi. Does this qualify though? (“blatant stealing of someone else’s idea is frowned upon.”) The Matrix wasnt exactly my idea :-\ - Plus, I dont know how processor-intensive this is… (works fine on my comp…)

**Entry 2** - Snake

Added a little snake game thing. However, both footers running side by side seem to be a little processor intensive :-\ Oh well…

I made it slower, is it slow enough?

The reset button - I originally had one, but theres some odd bug how when you restart it, the old snake it still there, and then it dissappears slowly, but still whenever you cross the area where it was, it thinks the snake is still there, and goes to Game Over… No clue how to fix it, but i thought it was better to not have a reset button than to put it up with a bug in it… :sigh:
