[AS2] Help me create an Adventure Game

Hey all! I’m new to flash and this is my first post here so please forgive me if I say anything stupid :]

Anyways, I’m creating a game. It’s not exactly like a platformer and I don’t know how to classify it.
Basically what you do in my game is you explore the map I’ve created and help strangers you meet around the map.

Being new to flash I need some help. The last month or so I’ve been reading all kinds of different articles all around the web about flash games. I’ve started a few projects to help me learn. None of them were completed due to lack of inspiration and knowledge but that is fine because I had no aspiration to finish them in the first place.

I’ll create a list of things that I need help implanted into my game and hopefully you’ll help me create it step by step. So here is my list so far.
[CENTER]**THINGS TO FINISH

  1. CHARACTER MOVEMENT ON SLOPES (JUMPING AND WALKING)
    **(I’ve been fooling around with character movement but I have no idea where to begin with sloped surfaces)
    **2. INTERACTIVE OBJECTS. EX. TRAMPOLINES, LADDERS, HOUSES…

****2. INVENTORY AND SHOPS (THE ABILITY TO BUY OBJECTS SUCH AS SPRINGY SHOES, OR SHRINK RAYS. THEN BE ABLE TO FIND AND USE THEM IN THE INVENTORY)

  1. NPCS (THE ABILITY TO HELP STRANGERS)

  2. DYING AND RESPAWNING IN A SPECIFIC AREA.

  3. UNLOCKING MORE OF THE MAP

  4. ACHIEVEMENTS

  5. MORE UI

[LEFT]That’s basically what I need done but I may add more things as I go on.
For now I just need help with the character movement. I currently have no code for that because I honestly have no idea how to start.

I will add more to this later but I’m in a hurry because I have soccer practice soon :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks All,
