A tetris demo project using Haxeflixel.
If you don’t have haxe, install it manually from haxe.org or with something like homebrew (on the mac)
brew install haxe
If you used Homebrew, add the following to your .bashrc or equivalent file:
export HAXE_STD_PATH="/usr/local/lib/haxe/std"
haxelib setup
haxelib install flixel
haxelib install flixel-tools
haxelib run lime setup
haxelib run flixel setup
Using neko is no longer a good idea now that OpenFL has been updated to version 8. Using the HTML5-build is highly recommended as it has far superior performance compared to neko now.
lime test html5
Run the haxe compiler in server mode to speed up compilation:
haxe --wait 6001
Start a second terminal window, and in it BrowserSync to refresh the software on build:
npm install
npm run start
Compile to see changes. I recommend you make a comfortable keyboard shortcut for building the default build (which is now html5), so browsersync will automatically refresh when you build.
lime test html5
If you want to build automatically when saving a source file, then run the autobuild script (it uses inotify and currently works only on Linux):
./autobuild.sh
