Just curious because I read this article at [http://www.photonstorm.com/archives/2568/the-reality-of-developing-web-games-with-flash-html5-and-unity](http://www.photonstorm.com/archives/2568/the-reality-of-developing-web-games-with-flash-html5-and-unity) and I’d like to know what do you guys think about the future of Flash gaming.

Currently I’m developing my first game and it gets released in March / April 2012. I’m still new to AS3 so I’m totally unaware about the future of the Flash/AIR-gaming platform. Do you think you can develop native Flash games for the next 3 - 5 years?
