how do you make a simple flash game?

[Blixinator]

just a simple one. nothing too hard. just something for a begginner

[Bodadem]

Depends what kind of simple game you're looking for..

[unicycler]

Go to Flashkit.com, click on tutorials at the top, then click on the games section twards the bottom. Do some of the game tutorials there.

That should cover just about everything you need to know for a shooting game.[/url]

[bobmasedo]

That tutorial takes ages...
http://www.geocities.com/bobthebluishfish/Untitled-1.swf was my first 'game' it was just me playing around with buttons but for some reason it kept people entertained for awhile

[Doug05257]

Heheh... That kept me entertained until I reached -7.54274576825465e+-64!


:)

[bobmasedo]

nice score, I should've made it have a high score...

[Galaxia]

Sorry, not much of a programmer. Especially, FLASH. Programming is very strange.

[Bodadem]

Because it clearly takes skill, right bob?

[bobmasedo]

Well yea to some extent but that was mainly just stuff I leant off a tutorial and wanted to test I could probably make it in 10% of the time nowdays but yea to make flash games you need to know how things work mainly so its probably a good idea to start off with learning how to use variables and symbols, it helps if you have imagination and common sense :)

[Bodadem]

Are you suggesting to ME to start learning how to make flash games? If yes, I'm deeply insulted..Why, just take a look at some of my completed works...oh, wait...nvm..

[userdan]

Well, you can take a dot, and make it move...

[userdan]

I reach "Infinity" in that arrow game.

[Bodadem]

1) Don't double post.
2) What are you talking about "I can take a dot and make it move"...Unless..but no..you can't have found that..anyways..What exactly are you referring to?

How to make a flash game:

Send me money or some equivalent thereof. Chocolate works just fine. So does any form of rare metal or gemstone. Then send some more of that.

In return, I shall make you a flash game. Depending on the amount of valuables sent, the game shall be complicated, simple, or something inbetween. All within my own capabilities, obviously.

Alternatively, you could learn Actionscript yourself, but that's boring, takes too long, and... it's boring. >_>

[some_guy_55]

is there any site that lets you get a free flash kit? not a shareware type of thing, i want it to be permeanantly free.

[DarkReality]

No.

For free game making I suggest Java. The entire Objectoriented approach requires some learning, but you can get some half-decent things together rather quickly. Given, it's not as easy as Flash/Actionscript, but it's free.

You could also simply download the demo and search google for a serial number that's usable. In my opinion, if someone makes it that easy to crack a game and save several hundred dollars, they deserve to have it happen to them. Not that you heard that from me. No siree. Not from me.

[Bodadem]

Good ol' piratage. Ya know the saying "The best things in life are free"? Well, I try to make the things I want the best things.

That wasn't funny...

I meant that you can take a dot, and make it move around the screen.
With arrow keys...
Or dragged by your mouse...
Or move on it's own...
Like the famous "Molecule" program...
You can later add some other dots, witch will follow the dot.
Or move around looking for food, or eating each other...

Well, you get the idea.

[Bodadem]

So...Basically...Dropped on head multple times?

[userdan]

Yeah, something like that...

[Bodadem]

I see..You have my deepest sympathies.

[userdan]

You don't understand me!
*sit in a corner*
No one does...
*whisper*When i was 6 years old, my mom looked at my drawing and called my elephant a PIG!
*shout*WHY!? WHY!?!?

[Bodadem]

Shut up, 35.

[userdan]

Shut up, 35.

Was that meant for me?
Cuz' if it was, i did not get the point of "35"...

[Sperry]

yes i think it was directed at you. when he posted that you had only '35' posts. don't need to worry about him telling you to "shut up", he's been banned.

[DarkReality]

Shut up, 36.

:-D

>_>

So what if this makes no more sense?

[userdan]

Yeah, some time after i posted that reply i got that...
Thx anyway!

Poor guy... He's must be so disappointed that an "Exeptional Moderator" has been banned for telling some N00b to shut up...
