Tutorials

These are the best-written and most in-depth Flash and Flixel-specific tutorials that we could find. If you find a great tutorial that you would like to see in this list just let us know!

• Beginner's Guide to Getting Started with AS3: A great, non-Flixel-specific intro to ActionScript 3.
• EduTech Wiki - ActionScript3 Tutorials: Some game makers new to AS3 have learned a lot from this site.
• Hello World (FlashDevelop): the simplest program (also available for Flash Builder and MXMLC).
• EZPlatformer: Build a simple, one-file platforming game with tilemaps and collectibles.

Open Source Projects

Mode, FlxInvaders, all that good stuff. Plus 2.5-compatible projects that I didn’t work on. To make this easier to maintain we might even want to just make a wiki page devoted to like up-to-date open source projects and point at that instead?

• Hello World: A very simple Flixel program that displays "hello world".
• EZPlatformer: A simple, one-file platforming game with tilemaps and collectibles.
• FlxInvaders: A shabby space invaders clone.
