use flash action script to develop online games
For 开发者_如何学Pythonshort: can you tell me some great resource to study if I want to develop online games using flash technology? Including 3D games.
You can start with the newly released Flash Platform Game Technology Center on Adobe Devnet.
There are quite a few books out there on as3 games, I'll try not to repeat the ones already mentioned:
The Essential Guide to Flash Games: Building Interactive Entertainment with ActionScript
(source: friendsofed.com)
This is a great book, tons of great examples, industry tips. This is pretty complete, as it starts with the basics and ends with promoting and obtaining revenue from games through systems such as MochiAds.
Another book that is filled with tips earned through experience is Real-world Flash Game Development: How to Follow Best Practices and Keep your Sanity
(source: safaribooksonline.com)
Foundation Game Design with Flash
(source: friendsofed.com)
Nice and easy start for beginners.
Flash Game University

For Multiplayer I would recommend:
ActionScript for Multiplayer Games and Virtual Worlds
For 3D I would recommend Papervision Essentials

Recently an Away3D book has been released: The Essential Guide to 3D in Flash
(source: friendsofed.com)
If you're really into 3D and the web, I would recommend having a look at Unity Game Development Essentials

Not specifically games oriented, but very handy, are Keith Peter's books on animation: Foundation Actionscript 3.0 Animation: Making Things Move!
(source: friendsofed.com)
and
AdvancED ActionScript 3.0 Animation
(source: friendsofed.com)
These would be the books. Of course there are lot of online learning resources out there.
More Adobe propaganda, the video presentations from MAX 2009 are online now, you might want to check out:
- Building Great Games With Flash (skip to 14:45, they didn't chop the video)
- Flash Player Gaming Showcase
- MochiMedia Flash Gaming Summit 2010 Coverage
GameDev.net is a good resource for learning game development. Have a look at their review of Game Development With Actionscript. Try searching GameDev.net for ActionScript, you'll find a lot there.
This resource is a bit outdated, because it is still utilizing adobe flash cs4. But it will be useful to just get started with flash game programming with AS3:
