Subject: FLASH: Can Flash4 do this?

Hey,

I am trying to help a friend with a game for a webpage. Can this be constructed in Flash 3 or 4? Game description:


1. Level/Rank:----------------------------

A player starts as the bottom and can work themself up by completing the
levels.

Ranks: 1, 2 etc.
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
2. Time Remaining:-----------------------

A player will get a limited amount of time, because there needs to be a
bit of a challange..
I don't think I'll make an option that people can leave the game
completly, but maybe a pause function where the screen get's blacked
out...
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
3. Name:---------------------------------

Kinda obvious really, when starting the player will be prompted for
there name and that goes here... :))
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
4. Points:-------------------------------

A database that remembers them so that when a player completes the
entire
game(All levels), they will get ranking in a list with other
competitors.

Also possible is a point ranking per level...

Points can be given for each clue found, or hidden bonus
Points will be deducted for time spent(Somebody who does the game in 5
mins. will have more points left that someone who takes 15 mins)...
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
5. Info:---------------------------------

This could be a collection of the clues they've found so far..
and/or a link to info Database(Which will open in a new
window)
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
6. Help/Hints:---------------------------

If they really can't figure it out they can get suttle hints here, that
will mean points being deducted...
(Points deduction also means time deduction)

-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
7. Map of the world:---------------------

A map of the world(duh!) with the locations that they may visit during
the game to find clues...
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
8. Contact HQ:---------------------------

I would like to put a 'communication' panel here, so they can perhaps
type phone numbers they've found into a phone or
receive faxes at the beginning of the game or get suttle hints at
times(For instance after half of the time)

-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
9. Multiple Options:---------------------

This will be their way of Input...
In a multiple choice kinda way..
For Instance If theirs a map of the world,
It could say:
1. Congo
2. France
3. Indonsia
Or whatever...
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************
10. The big square in the upper middle:--

This will be their main Viewing area, this is where all the action
happens...
After clicking on a option this will change...
-----------------------------------------
*****************************************

And when the clock hits "0" can the game finish??

Can flash also output info and can you also input info without using
generator??
