Hey, I just wanted to let everyone know that I have a bunch of free video tutorials, with audio, to teach my students how to make a version of the classic “Pong” game. I teach Flash to middle school students and I had to put them somewhere public where they could access them. So, I figure, while they’re up there for them, others could probably benefit too. If you want to check them out, here they are:

If you find them useful, you might also want to look at some more miscellaneous videos (some with sound and others with captions to guide) here:  
[http://www.rosettastoneofguitar.com/fms/captivate/flash/](http://www.rosettastoneofguitar.com/fms/captivate/flash/)  
You can expect this little library to grow and grow as I don’t have anywhere else to put them for now. I also take requests (as long as they are not to intense). Many of the things you want to know are also things my students will want to know.  
I could actually also benefit from any advice you more advanced programmers have about how to build games. So, pitch in a point or two if you have any for me. I’m dying to get better at this stuff and I get to work with it all day long…and get paid (and it’s pretty low pressure, just plain fun!)…lucky me!

hmm, i haven’t seen it yet, but i do suggest making a good platformer game tutorial, since most beginners would want to make their own platformers first, while having no clue to simulating gravity, using listners, or making scrolling terrain.

The tutorials are small and seem to be all over the place. I hope your students can keep up.

The actual order of the pong files are in a jpg image that you’ll find right in the list. It’s the best I could do until I get them linked up on an actual page…soon…hopefully
