Thanks. Before I watch, what sort of compiler is it using? I learn a tiny bit of flash from flashpunk.net, they had some free compilers you could download?

I have no idea if it works, but the only one I found listed on Google is here. Tons of decompilers, however.

The only problem is though that Flash is only 50% coding tool, and the other 50% is a pretty sophisticated vector graphics platform. I am not sure how well you could make Flash games using only an Action Script compiler.

You don't need a compiler, once you have adobe flash just write out the code then export it and you will have a fully functional flash application.

Many games are written in pure AS3. Most of them are retro-makeovers however, but it's very doable.
