I remember convincing my teacher to let me use haxe instead of flash for a multimedia course. It went pretty well (Got an A) and it allowed me to use vim (with the vaxe plugin)

Heres the game: https://github.com/Superpat/haxefighting-game

Awesome! I wrote the vaxe plugin, glad to hear it was useful.

Vaxe has some new long term plans. I wanted to improve it, but couldn't move forward with viml, or python. Instead, I'm working on a new lua target for Haxe, and will focus on lua support for vim/neovim in the near future.

Cool! I've mostly switched to neovim these days (Even wrote a blog post about it: http://patrickmarchand.com/posts/neovim-tuto.html)

Thanks for the good work.

Thanks for the link, I see that you're using deoplete, how good is it for python? For me it doesn't really work..
Hmm havent done any python since I've installed it, have you tried using it in conjuncture with jedi-vim?
How to play your game?
Well either run the swf file in the git repo or compile it yourself (Youll need the openfl library)

Fair warning, it's pretty rubish, being my first experience building a game and having used no actual game focused frameworks like haxelflixel.
