1. Download Flash trial off adobe.com
2. Learn the program with some tutorials off the net
3. learn actionscript.
4. follow some basic actionscript tutorials

First off I recommend rudimentary grammar and spelling.

You have to put in "code" that makes the game "run" and that is how games are &quotlayed."
How to make games in gamemaker.

No one is "supose to creat". It is a choice made by creative people.

I think he made that choice by saying it.

I used to use gamemaker three years ago. if you're younger than me(9-11) then keep using it for abou two-three months the use flash! But then it's easy to learn game maker I didn't even use tutorials, except one which is in the game maker help! It's very self-explanatory.

if you're 12 or over and good with things like maths and science start with flash and ActionScript.

The easiest way to create a game is with Flash CS4 (or soon CS5) and ActionScript 2. AS2 is for me easier than AS3.
And watch alot Youtube tutorials.
Another good point would be knowledge with C++ because AS2 is extremly similar to C++.
After a couple of weeks you'll get it.
And don't forget to try on your own. Only learning by doing helps you fast.

Unlikely that somone will know C++ if they are learning actionscript. Also Java is more simliar and easier to learn than C++ to actionscript since it's heavily influenced by it.

You can make a game with gamemaker but you cant upload it to armor games.Its not a .swf file but a .exe that you make with gamemaker.
