Don’t know if that’ll happen 'cause I played flash games as a kid and despite some very small curiosity I have about some of them I’m not nostalgic for them at all and wish I spent my time as a kid playing any other game.
I do think someone else on the thread may have a point that the only reason we don’t see this much nostalgia for flash games is because of the sheer number of them, and the fact that everyone played a different one, before losing interest and getting another one. It’s hard to monetize stick matrix 4 when only a bunch of people remember it fondly, unlike the 80s/90s when a game could be THE GAME for years.
Guess I’m the only weirdo here who absolutely has nostalgia for loads of flash games as a kid, there were many crap ones and many, many great ones.
Motherlode, Portal: The Flash Game, Castle Crashers, Super Meat Boy, Every Neopet game ever, Happy Wheels, Bloon TD 1/2/3/4/5, Impossible Quiz 1/2/3, Anagram Magic (+all the multiplayer games on miniclip,), Uno (+all the multiplayer games on omglol), Madness Combat, Fancy Pants Adventure, to name the ones off the top of my head.
I refuse to accept none of these are worthy of nostalgia. Some of them were turned into very successful full-blown games.
Yeah, like I’ve got a batocera emulation setup, and I have a bunch of old flash games I played as a kid on there, as a curiosity. But I hardly touch them.
The only one with substance that I occasionally go back to is this one puzzle game with little Viking guys trapped in ice, and you have to free them. It’s a cute little time waster, but that’s about it.

My flash game lost to time was “Zest”, a visual novel about addiction.

Nah me too. Smash the castle or whatever that trebuchet game that got copied by angry birds was dope
I failed on the last 10 questions of that one so many times that I gave up lmao. Even as a kid, I didn’t have time for that shit.
It was definitely a game that relied on its concept rather than anything else. I still personally think it was a fun interesting 'un worth playing.
Castle Crashers is getting an update soon after 10 years of nothing lol.
