Hey all!

I was wondering if anyone new of any Actioncript books specifically for gaming?

Or would it be better to just enrole in an Actionscript class at University or something?

Thanks,

Wiz

Yes. I beat IWBTG. Only took ~60 hours of play.

I'd recommend this one for you.

http://www.amazon.com/ActionScript-3-0-Game-Programming-University/dp/0789737027/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234397169&sr=1-1

It covers a huge array of flash game types and, once read, you can combine elements from his many game examples and put them into a single game. I guess you might not want AS 3.0 but if you do, this book is the way to go in my opinion. Check out his game demos, he posts them on the web and teaches how to make all of them in the book.
