In like, 2005-2010ish I remember there being these awesome online games through sites like Mini Clip. All disappeared from the internet.

I understood it had something to do with Java? Or… some plug in? I don’t really understand what either of those mean.

What happened to online games?

    I don’t know what flash games you were playing but I can’t remember any that I’d describe as quality. The ones I were playing were mostly user uploaded ones made with pirated versions of flash dev tools (I was known to make my own for a while too - this may have ifluenced what I was exposed to).

    The most polished games I can think of outside of facebook pre-HTML5 were those ones where you drag the clothes off the woman and it’s a photo of her naked underneath. I seem to recall settings for changing breasts too.

    What quality flash games are you thinking of?

      Umm, Kongregate and Armor games used to produce famous games. I liked platformer games like Amberial or FancyPants Adventure, also Bloons TowerDefense or I Love/Hate Traffic. Rebuild was one of great ones (strategy survival after zombie apocalypse), etc. There were talented guys out there.
