Kongregate opens labs to teach you Flash

If you're a fan of Flash games at all, you've no doubt visited Kongregate, which makes web games even more delectably clickable by adding achievements and other rewards. Now you can be a crack dealer err, creator of Flash games with a tutorial section of the site just launched called "Kongregate Labs."

By walking you through creating a game of its own design, the site says it can take complete Flash newbies and have them making complete games of their own by the last of the eight tutorials (or "Shootorials" as the site calls them). Oh, and the best mod to its template game could win some cash. We're sure that pales in comparison to the gift of bringing joy into people's lives, but, hey, it doesn't hurt.
