I've posted this in FGL also, I figured I could get another viewpoint here.

I'm currently developing a flash game to sell through FGL. There are some sound generation stuff I want to do that it would be better to do it compiling for Flash Player 10.

Since it's a bit new, I'm afraid that if I sell my game, after bidding, Mr. Portal Owner will tell me "Our games are in Flash Player 9, please port it" and I would have to spend extra time cutting stuff back.

According to Adobe, Flash Player 10 penetration is extremely high, but I don't know if game portals see this or just go on the safe side.

So, from a business point of view, would it be safe to make my game compatible only with Flash Player 10?

I'm pretty sure it's okay.  I haven't heard or read anything about what version of flash you needed to have. 

I made my game in the same version, and nobody has said anything about it.

Flash 10 penetration is indeed very high, and amongst portal-game-players it's even higher than that. It's not a problem at all; all of my games were FP10 since the day it became available, and have had not a single problem.

It was an issue at one point, but anything telling you that's the case is now outdated.
