Actionscript is a bit hard to start with because it assumes you're already familiar with C-style object-oriented programming and forces you to use object-oriented concepts in order to achieve even the simplest behavior. That said, it's not impossible if you're a fast learner, have enough patience, and know how to see patterns and take nothing for granted. The first thing you'd have to do, in any case, is to download the Flex SDK (I have version 4, but you might be able to get a higher version to work) so that you have the AS3 compiler.
