Bigfoot

This file simulates you, as a person with a camera, stumbling upon Bigfoot. Can you get the camera focused in time to get a good shot?

Bigfoot was created to demonstrate the following programming concepts:

1. Dynamic creation of complex variables - in this case a blur filter.

2. Changing the properties of a complex variable using buttons - in this case the amount of blur.

3. Moving stage content in response to the mouse - in this case the camera following the mouse.

4. Limiting variable values - in this case the amount of blur is finite. If you try to add or subtract blur past a certain point, nothing happens.
