I know how to make Flash games, or at least I'm beginning with making my first. However I don't really feel like joining your crew of "dudes who are making flash games", sorry.

To make Flash games you'll need either Adobe Flash Professional ($699), or you can use FlashDevelop with the Adobe Flex 4 SDK (free). I use the latter, since it's 100% code-based, but beginners might find Flash easier, since lots of stuff is handled automatically.

Depending on your choice of development, you'll probably have to look for different tutorials. Even so, most games are almost completely handled using Flash's coding language, ActionScript 3.0.

Anyway, I'm not gonna go looking for tutorials for you, there are millions on Google. I recommend finding some ActionScript 3.0 beginner tutorials, so that you can learn the language, then once you've got the hang of it I recommend using an external library for your first game. I'm using Flixel, but others like FlashPunk might meet your needs more directly.
