Eagle scrolling game, uni project

Hi guys, I’m an illustration student and as such I desperately need a hand with a flash game I’m making for an exhibition next Friday. I’ve been wrestling with it for a couple of weeks and reading tutorials but I think cutting to the chase and coming straight to the pros would be the best plot right now… I’m starting to get a little frantic.

This thread will probably be really frustrating for you all but if I have someone sort of… metaphorically hold my hand through learning what to do I think I’ll get things done a lot faster.

The background for the project is the release of the sea eagles on the east coast of scotland, we have to raise public awareness. I’m focusing on kids and what gets their attention in school, games of course, and I figured as this is only phase one of the project (if I get picked then I’ll be asked to finish the game) then I only need a few stills on the wall and a simple scrolling screen with a couple of interactive things to please the short attention spans of people…

All I need is for the eagle to swoop and catch the rabbit when the rabbit gets clicked and you get say, 10 points. I also need the rabbit to be dropped again so other people can try it out at the exhibition.

I’ve managed to create this so far:

It’s taken me all week! How pathetic is that. The boat button I was hoping could take you to another swf of info about how fishing boats feed sea eagles occasionally… But the only reason it doesn’t yet is because I know how to do it and I have all the bits, I’ve just forgotten how to link it all together blah.

I haven’t put on lives and a score calculator and sound on/off yet, I can do the sound on/off thing (even though it doesn’t have sound yet), the rest will probably be purely ornamental for the purposes of the exhibition.

anyway so halp! Oh gosh I’m so embarrassed posting such basic rubbish on here, I’m very out of my depth with this outcome!
