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.
Hell yeah, flash games were great to play on school, luftrauser is still my favourite.
I played a ton of flash games. When my brother was hogging the Xbox and all I had was the family computer, Newgrounds, Kongregate and Armor Games were my go to (before finding out what 4chan was). Sonny, Great War of Prefecture, Monster's Den and a ton of point and click games were all ones I kept coming back to. Flash games really nailed down what a free game should be before mobile games took off and Angry Birds and Candy Crush cornered the market and monetized everything to high hell. Then again even before smartphones a lot of flash websites had microtransactions be part of their business model. I know a lot of more famous flash games started re-releasing as ports/remasters on Steam and other platforms since flash died.
>>907196 Web and Flash Games are great and have definitely evolved over the years. I remember when Cookie Clicker was all over the place, when Flash Flash Revolution was the best rhythm game (fuck friday night funkin) and waiting to see what cool new games were out. All though I do have to say when a flash game dev makes a huge hit and makes their game on other stuff it kinda ruins the magic a bit. Like with Trials and Kick the Buddy. Trials at least tried doing new things, while Kick the Buddy went down the rabbithole of shitty mobile games

Some of my nicests memories come from searching new flash games as a kid, back then my mom's computer sucked ass and all I had for playing was swf files, my brother's PS1 and later the first Xbox. My favorites were The Fancy Pants, Electric-Man, Super Soldier, Karoshi, Dino Run and Xgen Studios games. I recall playing a lot of stickmen games for some reason. >what's your stance on them compared to your other gaming experiences? They're still great, I boot them up from time to time for nostalgia but don't really engage with them like I used to. If I ever have kids I'd like them to play those games as their first gaming experiences.

>>907196 https://www.nitrome.com/ Nitrome is probably one of the best flash game creators from that era, I'm glad theyre still making games but I miss going to the site and seeing if a new game was posted.

>>907221 Are their games backed up anywhere? >>907200 True. Simple games, made for fun, but what's really fun is that even the shittier ones had some sort of extra depth behind the surface. Plus the fact that there were absolutely no walkthroughs, manuals or anythinig like that made a lot of them much more of an adventure than just a bunch of stuff to play for ten minutes and leave be. I remember finding a ton of easter eggs here and there.
Does flashpoint hit the brick for anyone else? It can't download games anymore

>>907623 damn where does time goes
>>907571 well the website has all of the flash games still playable, but no idea if any of them were backed up anywhere.
Does anyone have that Ed Edd n Eddy skateboard flash game saved? I remember playing that and fucking it up all the time. Adult Swim's website also had some really fun games, I recall an ATHF one and My Little Bastard.
>>907571 At least on Kongregate and Newgrounds it was always fun scrolling down through the comments to see what advice you could get, or what secrets people had found out. >no walkthroughs I recall at least a few websites that actually did write walkthroughs and guides to certain games (Doodle God and a bunch of those cryptic adventure games like Submachine come to mind).
>>907572 You probably need to update to a newer version
Here's the list of flash games I played. McDonald's Video Game (by Molleindustria) Snowfight 3D (by Fetchfido) Pandemic II Raft Wars Raft Wars 2 Interactive Buddy Age of War Age of War 2 Spider-Man: City Raid The Last Stand The Last Stand 2 Stick RPG Warlords: Call to Arms Warlords: Heroes Territory War Bowman Dino Run Learn to Fly Boxhead 2Play Boxhead MoreRooms Bloons TD Bloons TD 2 Swords and Sandals Swords and Sandals 2 Line Rider Thing Thing 2 Thing Thing 3 Thing Thing 4 Thing Thing Arena 2 Try these with Flashpoint. Last, but not least, there was Adventure Quest. Flash games on console: N+ (or N++) Plague Inc (much like Pandemic 2) Alien Hominid (They also made Castle Crashers) Alien Hominid Invasion Super Meat Boy Bloons TD
>>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.
