I have been wanting to learn to write a Flash app so that it can be embedded inside a webpage.

But is it hard to write one, say, just to show a circle bouncing around the walls of the 4 sides of the Flash window (no gravity, but just like the dot in the game “Pong”), and what tools are needed (and are they free?).

P.S. Then after that, I would like to add that I can catch the circle with the mouse, or pick up the circle and let it drop like there is gravity and let it bounce around. So I think probably a programming language is the best.

Thanks very much.

    A bouncing circle within a square can be animated using the builtin timeline in Flash. That is pretty easy.

    You can also use Actionscript for that. Depending on your programming skills, developing can range from hard to easy.

    A free tool for Actionscript is FlashDevelop (using the free Flex environment)
