Welcome to Flash Games Classroom.
This is just a first test post. Over the coming days and weeks I’ll be posting here articles, news and tutorials on Flash games development as I build up towards the launch of my Flash Games Classroom course this Fall.
Details on the course to come very shortly, in the meantime you can take my survey and help to ensure that the course I provide contains exactly the content YOU want!
Thanks for dropping by, and make sure you subscribe to my email newsletter to be put on the early notifiction list so you can take advantage of a big discount when the course goes live.
All the best,
Billy Deakin

When your course goes live, will these articles and tutorials be taken down or moved to a pay area?
I have been interested in making games since I was a kid in the 80’s. I’ve always wanted to get into it but it’s always seemed such a daunting task. It has recently come to my attention that Cocoa, the language used for the iPhone app SDK is almost identical to Actionscript. This revelation has made me realize that all that stands between me and publishing a REAL game, a simple one mind you, is the time and dedication it takes to follow yours and a few other tutorials I have found online. I have just found your site and am looking forward to going through it and learning as much as I can.
Thank you for spending the time to help those of us who have always dreamed but never thought it possible.

Hi, thanks for your comment. No, any articles/posts on the blog here will remain free after the course launches and will always remain free. Only the paid content will be accessed via a login.
You’re quite right about the iPhone, and in fact the new version of Flash (cs5) to be launched next month will allow direct iPhone development, and we’ll certainly be covering that in the course at some point!
