if you really really don't understand action script and don't want to do much of it but make a point and click game, and your willing to put the time into making a game, the only suggestion of a game i can suggest which i have made.... though it is not on armor games cause i cbf putting loading screen onto it lol....
is to make a game thats only requires 2 action scripts one being:
stop();
just stop the frame and the other being

which just goes to the frame/scence you set it to and will play the movie. then you just set up buttons and your what happens for instance say theres a button saying run away, its just shown this big guy trying to attack you and you make it stop and then have 2 buttons 1 saying 'Do Nothing' and the other saying 'Run Away' then you just make 2 different movies for each choice of what happens and there you go you can make a survival game just off.... i did if you would like to see mine just send me and email add me on msn or something i don't mind i will normally respond

o shit i just noticed i left out the actual code for after it says
just stop the frame and the other being
this is:
on(release){
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1",2)
}

i hope this is correct i did it out of memory :S

Put a link up to your game or a similar one to it so people that don't know flash can figure out what you mean by this.

By linking you to a free hosting site I would be endorsing it. I would rather you search the term "free website hosting" and pick out the best one that suits your needs.

Well, at least you demonstrated that you understand the concepts of Flash.

Whoah your hit box for the button is really bad >.< you might want the hit box for the arrow to acutally be the whole arrow not just the lines.

I agree with Programpro it was fun. Bad but fun. The fact is a game will never be good if you don't put that much effort into it the graphics were sloppy and I think the first law of physic is that you must have a loop and if else statements in a game to have fun XD.

But if you continue to pratice you definetly will get better. This is actually not bad for someone who just started flash or if it's your first game.

yeh it is my first real flash game i wasnt focused on graphics or anything i was just having a shot at a game i already started on number 2 which has much better graphics sound effects and more control over what your character actually does.

Haha, gotta say that was one of the most entertaining flash games I've played in awhile xD It's not polished like everything on AG, but it's pretty funny. Keep up the good work xD
