Well, this is interesting--
To review, #Adobe yanked its #Flash thingie over security issues. Those of us who play Flash arcade games were hell bent on making Flash games work anyway.
One of them was #PaleMoon and the other was #Ruffle, and when visiting a website using Ruffle with Pale Moon, hilarity ensues in the form of error messages for the admin.
Things worked more smoothly with Ruffle when using Firefox browser, but not by much. A lot of times you couldn't just play the game--you'd have to refresh first and then hit the Play button on the Ruffle prompt...otherwise, you get stats but no game.
More fun than a barrel o monkeys.

Hans Reichel may have passed away 12 years ago, but thanks to Ruffle Player, his 100% Flash website still works:
I don't know why, but his "Erdmännchen" (meerkats) page still makes me laugh. Click the buttons, hear various Daxophone squeaks as the little meerkat morphs

It's reported that in its heyday, Flash was used on 30% of all websites on the Web.
Imagine if you could use, play and view your old favourite content again.
With Ruffle, you can 😎.
The works of GAMEDESIGN & SKIPMORE
The Japanese person (or people) behind the website www.gamedesign.jp are mysterious to me. I know nothing about them, except that they've been making games, first in Flash, then more recently using the Ruffle runtime, since at least 2001.

https://zzzen.com/police/ is an emulation of my first ever #flash app. It is a #game where you play a policeman, and have to avoid trying to arrest criminals you can't, and prefer harassing the innocent.
#Til about the #ruffle flash emulator https://ruffle.rs (thanks, Eyal) and within about an hour i've managed to fish the swf file from archive.org and save that piece of nostalgy from bitrot.
I highly reccomend it, it is very good, I play #flash games using #ruffle and #bubblewrap
