Thanks.

Flex/Flash Builder is great for building games. Flex itself is generally not appropriate for game creation.

I think there is some confusion about Flex. You don't have to be using Flash Builder (formally called Flex Builder) to be using Flex. FlashDevelop uses Flex for compiling AS3. This past weekend I had to cobble something simple together in the Flash IDE. Compile times weren't bad, but as soon as I added one 5 second video asset my compiles tanked. Hopefully re-compiling large assets in a short amount of time will be fixed in CS5. Great article!

I'll switch over to Flex + FlashDevelop in my next project. I've been wanting to be able to separate asset libraries for a long time. The Flash IDE really sucks for programming, except for animation and graphics. I love you man.

It was a lifesaver to have an IDE. Didn't use Flex though but from the sound of things it also makes your life easier. We used FlashDevelop for Stupid Robot. It was a lifesaver to have an IDE.

I do love the flash IDE, and I think it's definitely the strongest thing flash has going on. I definitely see your points though, and very much agree with them.
