Hi there, i'm trying to make a Facebook flash game, similar to farmville (at least in looks) with a couple of my friends.
We will be using as3isolib but i have the following questions:
1. Which platform/application should i use to desing and develop the game?... Flash CS5, Flash Builder, or even eclipse
2. How can I use a repository (like svn) so that we can work in the same project simultaneously?
3. Any advice for a "fresh" game developer?


Best regards and thanks in advance,

Henrique Ferreira

What tools you want to use are up to you and the workflow you want to use. Where I work our team uses:
* PHP for the backend (with the PhpStorm IDE)
* ActionScript for the client (with the Flashbuilder IDE)
* Flash for GUI work

If you're not sure how to use source control then you need to do some Googling and documentation reading. The common source control options have tons of documentation. The most common central source control system would be SVN. Popular distributed versions control software include Git and Mercurial.
