Do you need both Abode Flash and Action Script to make a game and could you tell if Abode Flash and Action Script has a Trial Version or is free for a basic edition.

Lots of people program out of Eclipse, but that is sort of a college software. It is highly organized and points out mistakes for you if you do happen to make them. I'm not sure how much the software costs though.
Understand that you cannot have Adobe Flash without Actionscript. Actionscript is part of flash and is the coding/programming language used in Adobe Flash.
