@JackSmack Will do for sure!
Thank you for bring these tutorials. I really need it to know how to making my own Flash games.
Nice! This is super comprehensive. Thanks for putting it together!
Hey @JackSmack! I am a big fan of your games. I especially love primary, it was my one of my favorite childhood games. So, I want to create a custom character Roy from primary in a multiplayer platform fighting game called "Fraymakers". I didn't want to do it without your premission, since that's would be a copyright, so I was wondering if you're cool with that? please respond as soon as possible.
oh boy, here we go....
I just asking out of curiosity, but where do you download AS2?
ActionScript 2 is the coding language in older versions of Flash.
This is a god send for me, will be studying up hard on these posts and books provided. Thank you so much for this, you are amazing my friend <3
Since you know your stuff with AS2, was it really as slow and weak as people make it out to be? or was it just bad practices over the years that resulted in a reputation that it's slow and weak when it's not truly the case.
AS2 was more of a proprietary evolution from AS1. That shackled it in several ways. It was awkward to make programmable objects[ ] in script unless you had built everyone in the Flash IDE.
AS3 was a lot more optimized and offered a viable way to make games that were script based instead of how AS2 worked. It used OOP principles and could be compiled by other programs like FlashDevelop instead of just Adobe Flash.

Please spread the word if you know anyone who needs help. And report any broken links you find in the list here in the comments. If I remember or find any other useful stuff for AS2 I'll link to it.
