It seemed like you had a particular partial URL there, so I was curious

if there was something special.

Flash 4 makes it much easier to program games like this in Flash but

there are very few experts in ActionScript as it is a new language.

ActionScript is pretty basic so if you understand the basic syntax,

programming a simple shooting game should be fairly easy.



I haven't seen any tutorials that specifically addressing how to create

this type of game in Flash 4. You will likely need to review variables

and possibly Get Variables and Set Variables.  --->
