I made a shooting game and its done, now i am working to expand it and add extra things to it such as helath bonus, limiting the amount of reloads. It’s turning out gr8 thanks to everyone who has been helping me out so far. 
I need help with:
1.) The Health is a dynamic text box with tha Var: health. Everytime the player is hit he/she loses 5 health points. I want to know how I can make the movie end when the health reaches 0 and where i would have to place this code. If someone could show me a sample or email it to me at [email protected] it would be greatly appreciated because I really want to know how to do this.
(I also want to use the same concept for the score, so like if the score == 5000 then they can advance to the next level.)
2.) I also need some explanation on how to make different enemies come onto the stage and different times in the game- some from the side and go across etc… and how to make the enemies disappear after they have been shot once and also how to make them loop and show up at random times. If someone could explain to me, it would be very great.
3.) If anyone has any idea about this one because i have no idea how to do this.
a.) Being able to switch guns?
b.) Having like health powerups where you cannot be killed for a certain amount of time?
c.) Any barries between the enemies and the player should be buttons right?
** When making a shooter game, I started with the
- Basics first- the cursors = crosshair,
- Gun which moves with the mouse,
- Enemies, enemies behing walls, garbage cans etc…
- Score (when enemies get killed), Health (When enemies shoot the player), Timer (Time till the game lasts), Levels (More challenging and keeps the audience hooked.
- Certain amount of ammo (So the player thinks b4 he/she fires)
- Sounds (Interactive)
- Bullet Holes (Look cool)
- High Score Table (Interaction with other players)
- A training thing before the real game.
All of these are ideas to making a good first person shooter in flash, theres a 6 part tutorial at flashkit.com that takes you through pretty much all the steps and is very good, it got me started. Good Luck.
