important note before reading: I used horrible phrasing in the headline. I was caught up in my own circle's thought process when I said "flash games died a horrible death". What I meant was the cultural aspect behind them - I don't mean that flash games are dead, because they can easily still be played. Coming off of the conversations I've been having, I had this context in mind when I wrote the headline, and I can see how it could be misconstrued. Anyone saying flash games are actually dead though, is simply incorrect.

I'm playing Serious Sam Kamikaze, and this reminds me of those old flash games... and this is obviously made by Croteam in Croatia.

Anyone know anything about this? I recall seeing something in a lot of those flash games that mentioned New Zealand and Eastern Europe a lot, but it would be way too hard to go back and pull up all that info. I can do my best to gather what I can from my old flash game archive

site note about commenters:

these two tards think flash is completely dead and unplayable and they're parroting the pseudointellectual line of "there are security flaws and security is important" without being able to name a single security flaw adobe flash has ever had. They probably don't even know exactly what sort of thing is bad to be called a security flaw these days I have only met a single person ever to have correctly responded to this; people who were spouting on and on about security is important and security updates blah blah blah, that is.

flash only had security problem because someone will try to code a virus and make it work. The simple solution was not installing flash or not visit the website. Flash is a software that allow people to crate anything within browser and computer limits, the only real virus was humans. As for the games, i do not know how you got those numbers, everyone in the world made a game in flash, Japan has Mobage what was used to called Yahoo JP, Newgrounds and Armor Games were the top websites for US/EU flash, China had one i knew but something happen to it and i cant remember the site, there were many MMO flash games in china.

So i do not know how you can clam EU having so many flash games when JP, China and US have more.
