What resources (books or website / tutorials) are available that cover game development using pure ActionScript 3 code? By pure I mean not using Flash CS4 and its timeline, but not using Flex MXML components. Everything is done using only ActionScript code.
In another question, I asked about the use of certain Flex SDK objects for simple games, and the consensus was that I should not use it at all, but only ActionScript for the game. Sounds reasonable, but the tutorials / websites I found on the topic of games use AS3 in the context of Flash CS4. They assume that your objects will be movie clips, with timelines, etc.
I understand that you can learn game programming from books in other languages and / or ignore the Flash aspect of AS3 books. I assume that what I'm looking for is some information specific to AS3, for example, best practices for games only for AS3, ways of making architectural / design decisions, etc. If so, then :)
