Using classical music in games

Copyright law in the US is a mess, so research well. Nolo press has a good book on the public domain that'll help you do your research.
As for music, ALL pre-1922 sheet music and lyrics are in the public domain, period. It doesn't matter when... |

secureSWF

I could probably pester 'em about it, but I think doing five reviews in a row of Flash products is pushing it :) I did secureSWF because they were looking for press at the Flash Gaming Summit, and I thought a review would be the best way to do that.

More importantly, Big Fish Games has NOT acquired The Code Zone. Looks like they're happy with me just making 'em piles of ad revenue.
Damn. |

Flash Multi-player Game Tutorial - TicTacToe

Looks good to me. I like that it's all built around free tools (at least the SWF building). You can build Flash content with free tools, but it's not obvious how.
