As someone who grew up on flash games, I agree that 80% of them are total pieces of shit but I genuinely miss the rest of them. There’s a simple charm in how the vast majority were made purely out of hobby and were the last vestige of games that were truly “difficult”. Now puzzle games (best flash genre) are mostly relegated to mobile hell or the occasional itch io gem
They actually ported over all Homestar Runner videos on the site to some HTML5 recreation of flash that works pretty well, so it's still possible I think

I don't like flash animation at all. Too flat, too on model, the characters look like paper dolls.
