Web and Flash Games Anonymous 11/15/2023 (Wed) 19:12:14 Id: 802c50 No. 907196
Usually these kinds of threads begin with the mandatory "back in my day" type of post, but I really wanted to know something about the anons who were too young to be there when web-based games were the undisputed kings: have you ever played any of these games, and if so, what's your stance on them compared to your other gaming experiences? Also, don't forget to check out the Flashpoint Project at https://bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/ and the very large collection of games they have.
>>908174 There's also the original Bloons games. Bloons More Bloons Even More Bloons Bloons 2 Bloons 2: Christmas Expansion
>>907196 I miss flash games like you wouldnt believe. 2007-2010 golden era >>907571 Ikariam still looks pretty much the same but travian got turned into an abomination, with an entirely new spinoff or some shit. I still miss travianer >>907573 game went to shit when it stopped being dark orbit

just look at this my niggy dont tell me it dont look comfy as fuck, I wasnt even german and had a blast, every day there was a new quest or npc that would advance your thing, your house, your farm, so good
>>907623 >>907632 I hate that so much has been taken from us. >>908250 There's something about the 2000-2010 look of online games that makes them so distinctive. Aside from the aesthetic quality, it really feels like most of the art assets are done out of necessity or limitations rather than a coherent art style.
>>907716 Do people still make Flash games in this day and age?
>>920970 Please stop mass bumping old threads if you're not going to add anything meaningful to them.
>>908250 >Unregistered Hypercam 2
>>907571 >Ikariam Jesus Christ, bury that shit back.
>>907196 Does anyone know if there are any repositories of very old Newgrounds animations/games? Not strictly lewd, I just noticed a lot of the ones I grew up with disappeared.
>>938871 swfchan and flashpoint
I played way too many Flash games growing up to remember them all but the one that really stuck with me was Dofus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmMSPyp-LvM
I played way too many Flash hentai games.
Is Flash development still a thing?
>>907203 Cookie Clicker's still got a big community.
>>1011163 > Is Flash development still a thing? No, it seems to have been fucking murdered by The Industry however the hell that happened. Macromedia and Adobe filled Flash with so much bloat that caused security holes that browsers stopped supporting it, then they tried to force everyone onto hand-coded Canvas and javascript websites which is too high a barrier to entry for the novice coders and artists that made Flash games. Now there are compilers that take any game and produce output that runs in a browser along with the windows EXE and Linux versions. That's what people seem to be using. People kept making Flash games and publishing them to Newgrounds and Armor Games but you never heard of them. People just stopped talking about them.
Adobe can go suck a big fat fucking cock.
Does Ruffle still work here?
>>1014829 It's over...
>>1014829 Ok, so first one, Ruffle just dies on Brave, but works correctly on Librewolf? And the second one doesn't launch at all on either browser.
I revisit gemtowerdefense.com every so often Something very comfy about the minimalism of the graphics and the ideas behind the mechanics I've not found a modern commercial TD like it
>>1014859 You may like the Gemcraft series
>>1014832 Does the second one launch on the updated Ruffle? The Ruffle here is 7 months outdated.
>>1014820 >People kept making Flash games and publishing them to Newgrounds and Armor Games but you never heard of them. People just stopped talking about them. Talk about them then, name some Flash games worth playing that I never heard of.
>>1015004 Not him, don't know the new ones, but PopCap made "Flash games worth playing" for gameplay people.
>>1015067 I remember reaction videos to that jumpscare game were a meme on Youtube.
>>1015067 Maze games were easy to make in Flash so they were a dime a dozen but one stood out as really good and I can't recall its name. Anyone got an idea?
>>1015146 >Over 1000 maze games made in Flash Dime a dozen all right. I'll look later, thanks.
>>1014832 >>1014954 It opens if you download it and then open it with Ruffle
>>1015067 My grandpa freaked me the fuck out with one of these when I was about 5 years old. He still talks about my reaction to it to this day.
>>1015156 Does Ruffle do anything to bypass old Flash DRM where SWFs won't run except from specific websites?
>>1015178 it does my jimmies
>>1015178 >Does Ruffle do anything to bypass old Flash DRM where SWFs won't run except from specific websites? I don't think so, but Flashpoint does. They're a community effort to preserve Flash games and animations and have preserved over 200,000 so far across more than a hundred browser plugins and web technologies. Flashpoint uses a proxy that tricks games into thinking they're running on the live web and has a sandbox that allows for secure playback of plugin-enabled content.
