UPDATE: Thanks a lot for the frontpage and all the nice reviews! :)
As I checked the Tutorial-genre on Newgrounds for flixel tutorials I noticed there aren't any and only a few on developing ActionScript 3 games. Since I have already developed a few games with flixel and know about its benefits and how great it is to start making games I thought I could try making one myself for the Newgrounds community.
The game shouldn't be too complicated, easy enough so that even someone without any experience on ActionScript could understand it...
The tutorial isn't just boring text, but it's made in an interesting and entertaining way, using cool effects and a tune made by RealFaction, who also helped me with the development aswell as the nice beta-testers. The tutorial is available in 4 versions. One for people with none experience on coding, one for people with experience on other languages than AS3, one for AS3-developers and one for people who have already used flixel. So that everyone gets the information he/she needs. Not more and not less.
Here's the table of content:
*CHAPTER I - Setting up flixel with FlashDevelop
*CHAPTER II - Importing and adding graphics
*CHAPTER III - Creating and adding a tilemap
*CHAPTER IV - Creating and adding a player
*CHAPTER V - Collisions
*CHAPTER VI - Input and movement
*CHAPTER VII - Creating and playing animations
*CHAPTER VIII - Importing and playing sounds and music
*CHAPTER IX - Using the Newgrounds API to create medals and ads
*CHAPTER X - Conclusion and where to go from here
Not only will it show how to use flixel but also the benefits of the Newgrounds API and how to use it with FlashDevelop and how to add medals and ads. The tutorial will be completely free and will lay the fundament for 8bit-gamedevelopment with flixel. People will be able to go anywhere from here and make their retro dreams come true. If it catches enough people's attention there will also be a second part on creating enemies, guns, more levels and other cool stuff or whatever THE PEOPLE DEMAND! ;)
Cheers!

Thank you so much! My friend and I are getting into game development, and I'm going to be showing this to him. We've been working with stencyl, and I think you're opening us up to a whole new library with this tutorial. You're awesome, that's all I really have to say. You're awesome, and I would absolutely love a second tutorial! It would be a huge help to him, myself, and anybody else developing in flash.
Woooah! :) Thanks a lot!

I'm a pretty experienced programmer and have been using Flixel for about 2 years, and I have to say Flixel is a very bad place to start learning AS3 and OOP. It's over simplifying and insane overuse of static methods will really mislead new programmers.

Well, I flew by it and it looks nice. I myself don't use Flixel but I can tell these are accurate and I might take an interest into it if you make a part 2. I am fairly familiar with the C# language and I must say this looks quite easy, nice for beginner programmers wanting to make flash games.
