All of the games on AG are flash games. So u will have to make your game in Adobe Flash

Is flash the only program that saves as an .swf?

Yes, Adobe Flash is the only program that people use to make the games you find on ArmorGames and other sites similar to it.

You could use oh wait they already siad that whops lol yes Adobe Flash is the only .swf file reader

Dang... Oh well. Time to look up tutorials :P

How about the Adobe Flex SDK? It's free (if you opt to not purchase the Flex Builder Integrated Development Environment) and it has a command line compiler that creates .swf files. Would there be any incompatibilities with Armor Games if I submit an .swf file created from Flex?

Yes it would (I believe... 99% certain someone point it out if I'm wrong), although there isn't the handy integrated graphics designer, so making a game would just be a harder task in general. You can still give it a try though.

Well... I'm gonna try this Flex thing, and If I don't like it, I'll just download a file converter or something and make a game with something simple.

I am 100% positive you will not find said file converter, but you should still be encouraged to try. And to be honest, I don't think there is anything "simple" with which you can make games. Well, good luck!

Well... I'm gonna try this Flex thing

anything cool on the internet is flash
