For what its worth, a friend of mine still makes a living from making Flash games. He even uses AS2! Kongregate, Facebook, and Steam have quite a few users that play Flash games.

Chrome plans to make Flash click-to-play in December 2016 (with a temporary whitelist, to be removed in July 2017, for Facebook and a few other popular sites), so I would recommend he look into moving to HTML5-based game system soon!

The nostalgia! I programmed my first game in my early teens in AS2! Those were the days... Hehe. I think Macromedia Flash/ActionScript 2.0 were the perfect tools to get started with programming, I was really lucky. I don't think I would have done much with a mere C++ command line back then.
