Since I do not yet know much about Adobe Flash, yet want to use it to build some rather sophisticated games, I figure that it is time to start learning. Baby Steps!

Learning Goal #1:
Side Scrolling and Collision Detection.

Learning Goal #2:
Changing object speed and velocity.

Learning Goal #3:
Processing Keyboard Input.

Bonus Goal:
Animated Run cycle.

Test Suite Game Concept:
100 yard dash. Man starts from a standstill, hitting a button "on time" with a heart beat keeper will yield faster running.
