How to build the project

Open build.cmd in your text editor, update MXMLC_PATH variable with the path to Flex SDK (it should support at least Flash Player 10.1), and then run build.cmd. If you're on a non-windows o/s the commands used in the file should still work fine so you can use them as basis.

Editing levels

1. Grab our copy of Ogmo Editor (Original Ogmo Editor was made by Matt Thorson) - either the Windows binary or the source code to build it for other platforms.
2. Unpack/build the editor.
3. Run the editor.
4. Open the project file in /src.level_editor/Editor.oep and then either proceed to create a new level from scratch or edit one of the existing ones.
