So I am discovering that most of my class doesn't have a great artistic ability, but you don't have to be a gifted artist to be a game designer. The pen tool is a wonderful asset. It does take some practice, but tracing is a good way to make your objects in the game.
You have some options. None of your symbols or anything in the game can be copied from the internet because of copyright issues. So, you have to create them. You can draw them and scan them and put them into your game. You can use the pen tool and draw them right in the Flash program. You can scan something into Flash and then trace it with the pen tool also. It will take some practice to learn to manipulate it, but you will get good at it after awhile. Some of you will get very good at this.
Just give yourself a little time and space and see what you can create.
