Beginning FlashGame Programming For Dummies – Andy Harris

Description

Beginning Flash Game Programming For Dummies by Andy Harris is a fun, step-by-step introduction to game design and programming using Adobe Flash. Part of the trusted For Dummies series, this book is written for complete beginners who want to learn how to create interactive games from scratch — no prior programming experience needed.

Harris guides you through the fundamentals of ActionScript, Flash animation, sprite movement, collision detection, scoring systems, sound effects, and game logic. Each chapter builds on practical examples, and the companion website provides downloadable project files so you can follow along and build cool games as you learn.

This book is ideal for students, hobbyists, and aspiring game developers in Kenya and across East Africa who want to understand the core principles of game programming. While Flash as a platform has been retired, the programming concepts, game design patterns, and logical thinking skills taught in this book remain highly transferable to modern game development tools like Unity, Godot, and HTML5 game frameworks.

Whether you’re studying computer science, exploring a creative hobby, or simply love gaming and want to understand how games are built, this is a great starting point.
