The things I would do.

Yeahhhhh!!!!

Could do, she is very pleasent to look at.

Outside of doing commissions, do you plan something?

mostly more big illustrations and i been thinking a lot about getting into animation, maybe one day i try some stuff out

If you were ever going to try and make this real, would you do it Flash, Stencyl, Godot, or what?

I would use Flash since it's one of the few programs I used for making animations years ago, and because I believe it would better maintain the aesthetic of old Flash games. I haven't heard much about the other programs you mentioned, so I'll definitely take a look to see how they are. Thank you very much for the recommendations!

@BaasNG If you're really going to try Flash, I have a few scripting resources saved, specifically for AS2. Would you like me to link them now or would you prefer to look at other options for game engines first?

sure! i don't know anything when it comes to scripts so having a few will come in really handy, thanks!

@BaasNG Okey, here I go.

This is the big enchilada with a lot of introductory, intermediate, and advanced stuff. It comes with links to PDFs of books with game examples to learn from:

Here's another huge language reference just in case the one linked above wasn't enough:

This really old YouTube channel has a few simple examples I learned from super early on. Specifically the ball, car, and particle fountain tutorials. They gave me a better idea of what scripting in Flash was actually like:

There's also this channel, as well. It's convoluted and unorganized as fuck, but I swear there are two useful tutorials to learn from here, like creating a simple catching game or recreating Asteroids in Flash:

The Game Dev forum here on Newgrounds has a few dedicated users that could help you:

You can download a copy of Flash here:

I like to use Macromedia Flash 8 because it's super dummy friendly for me, but there's also other versions of Flash that are popular, like Adobe Flash CS4.

Good luck!!!

@BaasNG OH YEAH, and if you need an idea of what's possible in Flash (or you're just looking for inspiration) download BlueMaxima's Flashpoint and browse their huge archive of games and movies. There's a lot of great stuff to discover and rediscover:

damn! thank you so much for all the info!! i will make you to check them out when i can, ty ty ty
