a good book would be 'Flash Game University' by Gary Rosenzweig. Good start after you learn as3.

You can download things like CS5 and Game Maker... If you practice alot with it, you can maybe learn it. You can also take the easy way: Go through school, and study flash at the university. Reading much books probably works too. Spending much money at software? If you are rich, than it is not supposed to be a problem... Hope it helps & succes!

'Flash Game University'


Yeah that book is good. After you learn to program a bit your like what do I do now? How do I even get started.

i have been using actionscript 3.0 any help would be appreciated


More actionscript. That's it but it's the hardest thing to learn since it's actually oop so you have to be pretty dead set on learning it.
