Recently, I have decided I would like to create a game which can be run over a web browser. Sadly, I have no idea whatsoever how to do this. Has anyone ever done this before, and how? What language did you use? Etc.

Keep in mind that with the host I am currently planning to use, all I can do is upload HTML to a specific part of the site. I can easily change hosts, though.

(I'm debating using Flash, though I've heard it's really expensive. If anyone knows of a free Flash development system, please tell me.)

Prirate Flash.
No. I refuse. Plus I don't know how, but that's irrelevant because I refuse to pirate.

I already know Java. The problem is how to embed it in the webpage. (JavaScript is easily embeddable but nigh impossible to make a game with, if you mean JavaScript, like you probably do.)

Check out the tutorials at kongregate.com. They have information there on developing flash games through both the flash authoring environment, as well as in free alternatives.

I suggest getting adobe flash, or adobe flex, if you want to create a game. You could just get the flash authoring environment and use the 30 day trial to finish your game.

What kind of game are you thinking of? That changes a whole lot. I've made games with PHP like a blind maze game, Cadavre Exquise and maybe more that I don't immediately think about.

If it can mostly be done with text and clicking of links, you could use JavaScript, PHP, or both (or other HTML-based elements). If you want a graphical game, that makes it a bit harder and you'd need Java or Flash for that..

Would it be possible to add Flash to a site if all I can do is upload HTML?
