What are Flash Games?
The Flash game is the last bastion of the free game designer. The Flash game is the savior of the Age of Pure Gameplay. The Flash game is the absolute best thing to happen to video games since Pong. Flash games can take you back to the classic era of 8 bit Nintendo or update you on the latest meme circling the internet. People who make Flash games are hip, cool, underground, in the know.
Flash games are what video games used to be, free expression of some
of the best ideas in all of entertainment. Technically, they are games
put together using Adobe Flash technology, which is being used for tv
shows and multi million dollar business presentations. It is easy enough
for a beginning programmer to learn quickly, with a less steep learning
curve than most programs, but still deep enough to be used for any
number of applications.
People are using Flash technology to do remakes of old games, make
new games, and most importantly, make new ideas. Horror and psychology
are big themes in Flash games, and some of the best new platformers are
coming out with Flash technology. The best Flash games are distributed
all over the internet, so when you see something 15 times, you can be
sure that it is actually good, and not just pushed down your throat by
some corporate interest.
