![]() ![]() What’s most interesting about Flashpoint is that the developers have gone out of their way to gather more than half of a terabyte of Flash content (at the time of this writing) that users can download either all at once or on-demand as they wish. It’s a self-contained archive and player combination that’s made to let nostalgic users download and use Flash-based content on their personal computers whenever they want. Unlike the other two options mentioned here, it’s not a web browser plugin at all. Last but not least, for people who are into not only the fun and games aspect of Flash but that want to help keep its legacy and history alive, there’s Blue Maxima’s Flashpoint. That makes it a pain-free way to keep experiencing Flash now and for the foreseeable future. It’s already more complete than Ruffle is, so it’s more likely to run content trouble-free in most cases. In most cases, Supernova is likely to be the go-to solution for anyone still trying to keep Flash-based games alive online. But for those using a compatible browser, there’s another advantage: it’s available in the Chrome Web Store so you don’t have to fiddle with your browser to get it loaded. The developers, though, plan to roll out a Firefox extension soon. The trouble is that it’s only available for Chrome and Edge, so Firefox users can’t use it. Like Ruffle, Supernova is a Flash replacement plugin intended to let users access Flash-based games on the internet in 2021 and beyond. And if all of that seems like too much work, the folks over at the Internet Archive have even turned Ruffle into an online emulator that lets you run anything in their Flash library without installing anything at all. Or, if you have Flash content already downloaded to your computer, you can also run Ruffle as a standalone application on Windows, macOS, or Linux. That means you’ll have to get the Ruffle browser plugins for Firefox, Chrome, and Edge straight from the developers and install them by hand.
