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!

I'm a games programmer, but with no experience with ActionScript3. Your tutorial was very helpful, and I was able to get a good understanding of it to make the platformer!
Also, setting the level of descriptions based on the users current skill level is a really neat feature, it should be in more tutorials! Great job, I would love to see another one or two of these! =D

Just finished the tutorial and I really liked it. I'm going to be using some parts of it today actually to teach children about computer science. I have to say this was really good. I kept the skill level on newbie to see how much information you were relaying on coding and it's pretty good for an introduction to coding. I haven't looked at the higher levels but adding chapters explaining the how the different classes are made and probably going over other aspects like being able to make functions would be good for beginners that want to learn more, maybe. I loved it it the way it its though. The source code was the best part of this tutorial too. When you do the second part you should go into explaining to others about expanding the text map and how to keep the camera zoomed and fixed on the player. I hope to see part two soon!!!

I would really wish that i could turn of the sound so i could watch my series while downloading, without having to listen to this fairly annoying song. Still 4 stars from here ;)
Press '0' to mute! ;)

I think I may be missing something. I have it installed and have gotten to the point of emptying the main function of the existing code, but now the tutorial itself just keeps telling me "So that's what we have! A blank stage!" without moving on or letting me do anything. How do I get it to progress?

Well done. You made it simple enough so a newbie like me could follow without it being too annoying, and made it quite fun to boot! Keep up the great work, and please do part 2 of the tutorial!
