Question Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm confused.

Which is better for making TD games;

Java
Action-Script 3 (2?)
Flash
Game-Maker

Also, can someone point me in the direction of a good site to start learning whichever one is preferred?

Flash == ActionScript
I'm not familiar with Game-Maker

I'd say Flash if you're more of an artist than a programmer and Java if you're more a programmer than an artist

It's a program that assists you in making games, with it's own code. I'm told it's quite limited, however...

Cool, thanks. I like art, I've never been good at it *go figure*. I'm also a bit inclined to Java as that is what Spira TD is made in. However, great games like GEMTD is Flash/AS3.

Any more thoughts?
That type of quoting is how I oft respond.
