Finally, the site is live! Firstly, thank you to all of you contributing towards the tutorials section of this site. This is very slim on the grounds at present but expect to see alot more in the coming weeks! If you would like to get involved, it’s not too late! Please email me and we’ll see what we can do 
Well, guess I better explain why im here!
This all started about 6 months ago when I started using Adobe Flash. Immediately, I knew I wanted to make a game, but what about? How will I do it? CAN I do it? I decided to skip the first two questions and say yes to the third, wise? Not really. I was not motivated enough, as I realised I knew NOTHING about actionscript.
I am at a stage now where I have done alot of research over the past few months, completing flash tutorials, grasping some basic actionscript and searching forums for useful snippets of code I could enhance on.
I then decided on a basic story for the game - planning out a rough structure and direction to take the game in. I broke the story down into 6 chapters, each containing 6 levels, with a world map containing bonus features. It was after this research and realising how I struggled to find just basic code I could develop for my needs, that I decided to create this site.

This is somewhere n00bs can come and ask those simple questions, with basic flash tutorials & photoshop tutorials to get you started. As I learn more flash, so will you. I will be posting anything I find useful - links to other sites, forums and flash blogs, snippets of code I am using for the game and full length tutorials to teach the basics of making flash games and cool things in general.
And let us not forget, you can track my progress as I try to create a full length flash game by christmas via The Dudes weekly updates, just sign up now!>>>>
So join me, learn flash, learn actionscript, learn photoshop, and create one hell of a game.
Signing off,
The Dude
