I would recommend using these tutorials. They will teach you how to download the trial version of flash and how to use some basic commands.

It takes time to make games too... days even weeks to make... Then it starts to get boring with all the codes..Hard work making games tell ya what!

To make games, it isn't the easiest of things, you gotta learn flash ''language'' and you have to learn how to put it into play.

I'm 15 and I can't really grasp the idea of flash x.x

Ha ha, your 10, don't you have to 13 to be on here?
Whatever, theres a lot of underagers on here. (*cough* *cough*)

BUT ANYWAY, i recommend that you first make a simple animation, then you edit a game, THEN you make a simple game.

Yeah, you should use the flash tutorials and trial. If you save enough money, you could buy the normal one.

Hey Kid, If you really want to be making the best games in the world.
Go to Full Sail University. They have the best education for the Gaming Industry. You can focus your education on either "Game Art" or "Game Developement". And you can further your education in "Game Design". [url=http://www.fullsail.edu/]

No. Go to a REAL university and major in something that you can use in another profession should your interests, the economy, or the field change.

Full sail is not a true university and your credits will not carry over to REAL schools. Community college credits are probably worth more than the ones at full sail.

Flash is hard and boring. At your age it will be a miracle if you don't give up when the tough get's going.

There's going to be a 90% chance you're going to not finish a game you started if you're just a beginniner. Maybe you will run into a problem you can't solve, suddenly think the game concept is stupid, or just get bored. You have to get into the mindset that programming is a hobby rather than a job with a deadline.

I had to learn this the hard way...

Kid, I'm only 13, and I'm just getting in to programming. It is NOT something you want to dive right into. I started with PIVOT movies, then went over to Flash to make Flash movies. Then I had to make a menu screen for my collab, which led to quiz games, which led to a collecting game I'm working on. Game Maker would work fine for you right now, because you're still young and Flash will probably frustrate you (it crashes a lot, to add to the difficulty of scripting).
