This is great, the idea of deconstructing well known games as a teaching method is pretty cool.

Knowing the effect that you are hoping to achieve while reading the code really helps in understanding the implementation.

Very nice, keep them coming :)

Not games but anything. I'd love to read a "write nginx" or "write lua" :)

Too bad this is flash based. An html5 version would have been more interesting to me.

Maybe some ambitious person could do an HTML5 or Android version and put it on github?
