Just spend the past 40 mins scouring Google and seem to have had a little luck. I found a nice program called Game Maker, freeware and lets youl build simple 2D games on it. It seems good fun but i think i’m still hoping to find something thats going to teach me how to really make games, rather than just “lego” building one with a program.

The other thing i came across was the amount of FLASH games out there. I’m lucky enought to have a copy of the Macromedia Suite so i guess it might be time to sit down with it and see what it can do.

If anyone out there knows of any other good resources for me then i’d love to hear from you. For now, i feel a book on FLASH calling.
