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.

<p>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.</p>
<p>Thanks to Christian for the background color tweening effect.</p>
<p>Check out my Bloom thread I started here: <a href="http://nuigroup.com/forums/viewthread/3867/">http://nuigroup.com/forums/viewthread/3867/</a></p>
<p>Check out olo:idea video below that shows the Bloom running on a large multitouch display.</p>

<p>Check out bassmang5 video below that shows the Bloom and my other applications running on his MTmini! You can see his post on NUIGroup here: <a href="http://nuigroup.com/forums/viewthread/3911/">http://nuigroup.com/forums/viewthread/3911/</a></p>
