Hi,

you can get the .fla from here:

http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/eatboom/repos/mainline/blobs/master/EatBoom.fla

Just download the file linked to by "try viewing the raw data".

You can get the .swf in a similar way from:

http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/eatboom/repos/mainline/blobs/master/EatBoom.swf

Tell me if those links don't work for you and I will put a copy somewhere else.

Thanks,

Tomeu
