I remembered when flash 'died' and thought all of that was just lost history. Turns out there are translation layers that sites (e.g., new grounds) are running, and you can run flash games of the 2000s on your phone today. Kind of crazy that a) I'm still able to see flash uploaded in 2000 and b) I remember some of the games now, 26 years later.

Certainly not all of them. The issue is that a lot of them I played on lithuanian flash sites before I knew english, so I mostly just know them by whatever localized names that were made up (which only sometimes matched the originals) which makes it a lot harder to search for them, since I first have to find the english name for them lol. If I remember the name at all, and im not just searching by the description of what I remember the game being. Funnily enough some games that I do know the names of and I can easily find elsewhere also don't come up on the flashpoint archive

And some of them also were never in english to begin with and were just niche games made in lithuanian.. I did search for those as well, but I got 0 results

So yeah :3. I think some of them might just be lost to time ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
