After much consideration, I have decided that I will not continue this series in any way, shape or form and will instead focus on other projects. This decision is final. Sorry.
Maaaaaaan, nitrome was my childhood. I can still remember playing mutiny with my sister and brother. I rly wish they would make a collection of most of the games and put it on PC and consoles that would be awesome
cheers, its a good idea to use old versions of the standalone player to avoid possible adobe introduced bugs; i'd say 10.3-11-12 is good enough. flash 9 and below cause issues. simply point to http : slash slash cdn dot nitrome dot com slash games slash slash dot swf
@@yy6u Absolutely. Unfortunately, college is getting pretty intense and I want the sequels to be better than this video. I'm working on this as much as I can, but it'll take a while. Sorry about that. Oh, and for Flash Player, I'd rather err on the side of caution and use the latest version as the older ones are definitely not secure.
I'm so glad you took a moment to appreciate the Toxic music. I remember just leaving the menu open to listen to that song as a kid. Great job with the rest of the video, too!
Thank you for watching! Yeah, that wasn't initially a part of my review, but I was editing the video and just thought, "Wait, why does this sound so good?"
I just finished this video and I think I can say with confidence this is one of the best retrospectives I have watched that is this length. I didn't really grow up with nitrome, but I did play a lot of flash games when I was smaller. Thank you for this amazing video, and I am going to go watch the second part.
Square Meal may be simplistic, but there are some tricky and creative levels It's also super fun to abuse the engine to clip through walls and create ghost blocks It was the first game I ever played though so I might be a bit biased
Thank you for giving Nitrome the recognition it deserves dude 👾 My favorite game is snow drift and I still enjoy playing it from time to time it's freaking cool (like your video) ❄️
This video makes me wanna go back to the 2000s. Good old Internet times! I played Nitrome games in Miniclip like Pest Control & Chasing Dreams when I was a kid back then. Those were my childhood days. Thanks for this video! This deserves a lot of recognition and you’ll deserve more subscribers.
I remember Feed Me to be my very first Nitrome game I have ever played, and I'm glad to see that you fairly enjoyed it. Keep up the good work! I can't wait for part 2!
Thank you for your effort. Amazing video that brought back so much nostalgia from one of my favorite computer game makers of my childhood immensely full of flash games lol
Oh my gosh, this video is amazing! Nitrome and Andkon were my go to sites for flash games as a kid. I miss those days that's for sure. Your video definitely took long hours to make so I applaud you, my friend. Easy thumbs up for this video!
Man, your video really bringing up my childhood experience. I used to play everytime i back from my boarding school. 😭❤️ really hope they will continue to produce more quality games. Nitrome really is that game that produce such a top notch cute and creative games. Other than that, thank you for making this video! Really love how this video turn up to be well made! Again, thank you! from malaysia 🇲🇾✨
I was so excited to see some of my favourite old nitrome plateformers from back in the day and only a little salty that you hated them :( square meal, toxic, and snowdrift were all great as a child (although I admit I haven't played any of them since the early 2000s) still listen to all the music though (also while I agree that twang wasn't anything special gameplay wise I have always been a huge fan of the music) Also, I played square meal, skywire 2, and all the later 2 player games (twin shot, double edged, etc) with a sibling and can confirm that they are all even better when playing with someone else
What a trip down memory lane. I’ve also just come to the realisation that stuff like this, which was practically the only type of games i could play, is the reason platformer type game are my favourite.
That was phenomenal in terms of editing and commentary! I can relate to your intro as well, Flash Games were my bread and butter until I shared a GBA SP with my siblings and then got my own DS later on! Even then, I'd be looking to see if there were any new Nitrome games every week or so! It was nostalgic to see a lot of these games again, but yeah, Nanobots is a huge pain. Looking forward to Part 2!!!!
What in the hell. You get 5.6k+ views on this amazing retrospective, and yet only 300ish subs? Subscribe already people! He's gonna make MORE parts ffs!
Good god, this video is the quality of a channel that averages 300k+ views a video. Paused in the middle of the video just to comment this, I can't wait to finish this video and watch the few other videos you uploaded, sadly there's only few :( Your channel is criminally underrated, I really hope you find inspiration and time to make many more videos in the future!!
my fav nitrome games are sky serpents and office trap , office trap was way too underrated tbh , very good ost , really fun gameplay and cool ass gimmick , but most importantly , *its very fucking difficult , remember having a mental breakdown when i was a kid at level NINE* edit:ok but really fuck the cats
52:20 That there was a common issue with flash. It didn't receive events outside the frame of the flash element, so unless a game specifically looked for when the mouse leaves the frame it would never know that you stopped holding the mouse button. I think Unity got around that by making it so games can capture the mouse button, preventing it from leaving the frame, but it was a stop-gap solution if any.
This just made my night knowing this series exists... I loved this site so so so much. Also refreshed all the time waiting for a new game to release. Played them all to completion
Oh dear god what a nostalgia trip! Sandman just might be the first ever game I remember playing. Nitrome was way ahead of every other flash game site during the mid-2000s. Only Miniclip, Armor games and Newgrounds could come even close.
Excellent video! I wanted to reminisce about my favorite Nitrome games and this was great! Wonderful editing, especially for a new TH-camr, I hope to see more content from you soon!
Love the editing! I've always wanted to make a video like this myself but was never able to find the right method to do it in. One thing I'd like to say is that I'd like to hear your thoughts on the music in these games in addition to the other elements; the music in some of their earlier games isn't terribly notable but their later games definitely have music that ought to be talked about.
Sometimes simplicity is what makes a game lovely. I adored Skywire (all) (music, sounds, simplicity), Thin Ice (perfect music, simplicity), Knuckleheads (gameplay), Off the rails (musiiiiic), Jack Frost (the feel of making ALL the blocks of ice :D), Yinyang (sounds), Thwang (that ftaaang sound), Cheese dreams, and many others - which means the company really did a good job - and still, 15 years after I looove them! - and I must say, their visual identity and music was also something that attracted me a looooot! And still attracts me - I would make them as instrumentals to listen to
I loved playing nitrome games with my older brother and Dad! I did go back to some games today and besides the lagginess and all of the ads, I never realized how repetitive it really was. My top games were dirk valentine, twin shot, avalanche, toxic, headcase, pest control,, and bomb it!!!
Flash games were my first window into games. Glad to know I'm not alone. I started with the second one first, god the Mutiny one made me extremely nostalgic. Shit, my interest in flash games started to wane after I got a DSi as well
Good vid, and you're welcome for watching in its entirety. Kept making slight comparisons of my own to games I've played while watching. For Play -- Basically Connect 4 like mentioned. Hot Air -- About as original as it get s from what I can see, what with how unique controls are. Sandman -- Frustrating version of the Lemmings; Not even Kaizo, just overall... time-wasting Lemmings. Chick Flick -- Anybody remember the "Fire" game from Game & Watch? A unique spin on that.. or you can loosely say Brick Breaker / Javanoid games. Roly Poly -- Those little small maze things you used to get when you were younger, maybe from McDonalds where you had a small ball and had to rotate it to get it in the middle. Kinda like that. Feed Me -- Umihara Kawase games or even before that, Bionic Commando are what come to mind looking at this game. Neat. Gift Wrapped -- Mentioned like the Mario 64 DS game but I know it from what inspired that one: "Where's Waldo?" Scribble -- Better Lemmings. In fact, you could say Lemmings meets Kirby: Canvas Curse. The environmental destruction feels very Worms-esque as well. Frostbite -- Same as Feed Me that it reminded of Umihara Kawase or Bionic Commando -- more so the latter this time. Between the two games however, this feels WAY more like it. Tanked Up -- Micro Machines (NES) with a battle mechanic twist that might make F-Zero liable to cry. Magic Touch -- Makes me think of Educational games. I would say also Bubble Bobble, but that's SUPER loosely... Skywire -- Another full on original to me, very interesting. Though it's usually physics based games that really shineee. Space Hopper -- Yeah, Super Mario Odyssey is on point. Only other relation is those rotating things you might play with too much in Scrap Brain Zone of Sonic 1. (Think they had those, maybe I'm thinking too much Metallic Madness from Sonic CD?) Grief Hunt Air 2 -- It's like a Lost Levels version xD Do love the Super Mario Bros. 3 inspired looking level screen. Square Meal -- One of the few times that it looks familiar but can't put my finger on it. (Also don't blame for nearly falling asleep on it) Toxic -- Makes me think of Pocket Bomberman, old Game Boy game. However, Pocket Bomberman had only one bomb type, bombs can be placed in the air and used as platforms, etc. Different from this game here. Yin Yang -- The black and white conceptI've seen in an versus indie game before but not used as a puzzle game... interesting. Nanobots -- Looks like an expanded Asteroids but given your commentary, expanded in the wrong direction.. The Rails -- Reminds me of the small mini-game in Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga (but WAYY more better looking and fleshed out) or Mario Party's Handcar Havoc minigame but 2D. Nice looking Head Case -- Kinda flipping VVVVVV on its head, haha. However, I think the game fails from not being as fast as VVVVVV. Pest Control -- Like mentioned in video, Mario Paint's fly swapping minigame expanded. Twink -- Wow. This one is pretty cool, Kirby: Canvas Curse mixed with Angry Birds going a bit there but that's just scraping the surface what with the rubberbands around. The physics based games are always a delight to look at. Thin Ice -- Actually pretty neat and different. If Dig Dug 2 (yes, there's a Dig Dug 2) was less stiff and actually used 360 movement instead of 4 way movement, then I could see this. Snowdrift -- Super Mario Bros. 3 , that's it. Sonic games got brought up as well so that too if they fused the sliding part and slow platforming into one -- but definitely more SMB3 to me. Jack Frost -- Looks like a more tedious version of Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle... and yes Splatoon before Splatoon didn't think of that. Or the Graffiti game mode in Tony Hawk Pro Skater games. Aquanaut -- Like mentioned, just like their Hot Air games. The way you hop out of water can't help me wish it was more Ecco the Dolphin. Go Go UFO -- Movement mechanic is different but reminds me of the tightly packed levels in Crash Bash's racing games (Dot Dash, Toxic Dash, etc.). The Fortress of Steam -- First platformer that made me feel like I'm looking at a Metroid game. Just imagine going through Super Metroid (SNES) with rarely unequipping the Grappling Hook, heh. Though that's a loose thing to say since using the Grappling Hook as a weapon in Super Metroid absolutely sucked while this looks much fluid and well suited. Magna Boy -- Wow, not exact-exact but the way you move can sometimes make me feel like slipping on Ice in Chip's Challenge. Cheese Dreams -- familiar looking but can't put finger on it. Not like if you just kept the Ball Ability in some Kirby games, but something else.. Snot Put -- Feels like every fourth flash game ever xD A good ol' game of... well.. Shot Put, yeah. Knuckleheads -- Another neat looking game to me. Sky Wire 2 -- See Sky Wire 1. Small Fry -- neat, like the games mentioned that it reminds of Scribble and Sandman, but the way the drag and drop happens just now reminds me of Scribblenauts (Unlimited).
I first played Feed Me on Miniclip back in 2006, but didn't know it was only a recent addition at the time. But yeah, despite its highs and lows and not playing every single game, I've had fond memories playing these games. I just wish there was more special types of games for PC and consoles, so I wouldn't have to rely on the mobile market to look at their newer games. Though that's probably due to my lack of knowledge of said titles, since like I previously said: I didn't know about or play all of their games.
About that... I definitely know Flash will reach end-of-life at the end of the year and if you're worried about that killing off the other parts, rest assured that I have a plan regarding that. I'll give more details in an upcoming update video, but trust me, I wouldn't make a 4-part series that depends on a dying plugin without some kind of plan B.
20:22 (magic touch) - wow, this one actually looks interesting and stands a little out - i mean, mechanically - can see how tedious and obnoxious the gameplay would be
Considering that for all intents and purposes Flash games are "retro" your audience would either be people who feel nostalgic about them (like me!) or people who are curious to see what these games are like. I'd say give it a shot and see what happens. You might just find a niche! Although keep in mind that you'll probably have to use Flashpoint or do something else after Flash Player reaches end-of-life at the end of the year.
After much consideration, I have decided that I will not continue this series in any way, shape or form and will instead focus on other projects. This decision is final. Sorry.
Oh man, too bad, but ofc nobody can force you to do anything.
What else do you have in store? I would gladly support you
@@toadtv4389 Big fat sequel to my Tetris video. It's about 75% complete.
@@SuperclassYT
Oh my! It's going to be so good, loved the first one
if these games still exist even in code, it'd be a worthwhile venture to turn some of the more popular ones into old style arcade machines
What does that even mean? You played all the 142 games and uploaded it here in part 1 and 2 or not?
Maaaaaaan, nitrome was my childhood. I can still remember playing mutiny with my sister and brother. I rly wish they would make a collection of most of the games and put it on PC and consoles that would be awesome
Mine too! I played it with my brother, we absolutely loved playing Office Trap.
Same 💜
Nitrome's little intro logo for each game is always iconic.
So glad you showed them as well! :)
Playing Bad Ice-Cream in IT class with my bestie was amazing
Your message is loud and clear! I am happy to announce that work is already underway on part 2! Thank you for the support and all the kind words.
cheers, its a good idea to use old versions of the standalone player to avoid possible adobe introduced bugs; i'd say 10.3-11-12 is good enough.
flash 9 and below cause issues.
simply point to http : slash slash cdn dot nitrome dot com slash games slash slash dot swf
is this still in the works?
@@yy6u Absolutely. Unfortunately, college is getting pretty intense and I want the sequels to be better than this video. I'm working on this as much as I can, but it'll take a while. Sorry about that. Oh, and for Flash Player, I'd rather err on the side of caution and use the latest version as the older ones are definitely not secure.
Oh yeah, Toxic, an ok game with some seriously good music. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Toxic's music makes it sound like every level is the final level and I wouldn't want it any other way.
I'm so glad you took a moment to appreciate the Toxic music. I remember just leaving the menu open to listen to that song as a kid. Great job with the rest of the video, too!
Thank you for watching! Yeah, that wasn't initially a part of my review, but I was editing the video and just thought, "Wait, why does this sound so good?"
Thanks for doing this, I'm just glad Nitrome is still getting attention nowadays
I used to play Bad Ice Cream every time with my friends in computing classes. Good memories
Feed Me, my first Nitrome game that I played. Can't believe it's been over 12 years
Damn, i really cannot wait for the sequels. This is amazing
Thank you for the kind words! Part 2 is already in the works so hold on tight!
I just finished this video and I think I can say with confidence this is one of the best retrospectives I have watched that is this length. I didn't really grow up with nitrome, but I did play a lot of flash games when I was smaller. Thank you for this amazing video, and I am going to go watch the second part.
Square Meal may be simplistic, but there are some tricky and creative levels
It's also super fun to abuse the engine to clip through walls and create ghost blocks
It was the first game I ever played though so I might be a bit biased
Thank you for giving Nitrome the recognition it deserves dude 👾 My favorite game is snow drift and I still enjoy playing it from time to time it's freaking cool (like your video) ❄️
square meal must be played with a friend, its like a simple version of portal 2 if my memory serves me well and isnt just nostalgia
This video makes me wanna go back to the 2000s. Good old Internet times! I played Nitrome games in Miniclip like Pest Control & Chasing Dreams when I was a kid back then. Those were my childhood days.
Thanks for this video! This deserves a lot of recognition and you’ll deserve more subscribers.
Really great review. Looking forward to watching to other parts.
Wow, this is amazing! I look forwards to part #2!
Thanks! Part 2 will take a while to make, but it'll be worth it.
@@SuperclassYTAre we still getting a part 2?
Underrated channel and video, Can't wait for your channel to grow
I remember Feed Me to be my very first Nitrome game I have ever played, and I'm glad to see that you fairly enjoyed it. Keep up the good work! I can't wait for part 2!
Thank you for your effort. Amazing video that brought back so much nostalgia from one of my favorite computer game makers of my childhood immensely full of flash games lol
Great video. I used to love playing Nitrome games as a lil kid and I guess they were a part of what got me interested on gamedev in the first place.
Crazy nostalgia from this, man. Thanks for making this, Nitrome was my favorite Flash game site growing up
snow drift, the construction game and skywire are the ones that give me the most nostalgia because those are the only ones I played
this video deserves a lot more recognition o_O keep up the great work!!!
Oh my gosh, this video is amazing! Nitrome and Andkon were my go to sites for flash games as a kid. I miss those days that's for sure. Your video definitely took long hours to make so I applaud you, my friend. Easy thumbs up for this video!
Love the editing! Lots of potential here. Keep it up bro!
Thank you! I put a lot of effort in the editing, so I'm glad you appreciate it.
What a nastolga trip. I remember playing all these games on the family PC growing up
This is amazingly well done, keep up the good work!

13:10 BROOOOOOOOOO i been searching this Game for years
nitrome the goat
God I love Nitrome! Hot air 2 and Nitrome Must Die were my fav ones. I played almost all of the games...
ah, memories...

I agree! This guy has a lot of potential!
Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.
The effort in this video is amazing
Respect
I loved this video , I’m excited to see your work in the future your commentary and editing are very entertaining
Great video, lots of memories.
I think Square Meal gets better if you play it as a coop game, so does Jack Frost!
Oh God, this channel i soooo great! Good work!
my fav nitrome games are sky serpents and office trap , office trap was way too underrated tbh , very good ost , really fun gameplay and cool ass gimmick , but most importantly , *its very fucking difficult , remember having a mental breakdown when i was a kid at level NINE*
edit:ok but really fuck the cats
Im not crying,its just a tears of nostalgia
The nitrome games will make a perfect collection for Switch!
Thanks for playing all the intros man! Great touch!
final ninja, doubble edge and bad ice cream are the first games i ever played.

this is so good i hope much more people se this
I have fond memories of sandman ironically
This just made my night knowing this series exists... I loved this site so so so much. Also refreshed all the time waiting for a new game to release. Played them all to completion
Amazing video loved nitrome back then
27:23 oh that looks like the among us crewmate!
Lmfao true
Really glad you did. I could begin to talk about my experience with nitrome but it'll take a lot of time. Nitrome are a seriously talented company
Nitrome is literally THE GOAT Game company
You have potential, keep it up!
Thank you for watching! I'm already hard at work on videos that greatly improve on what you saw here.
Don't mind me, just having a nostalgia trip 🙂
this video is phenomenal
It's nice to see how human even the legends are. We all start from a test game and it takes few projects to get it right.
I love this video! And I really love Nitrome style and games ❤️
PS: Jack Frost is garbage xD It's not fun and the jump of the Player is so bad!!
you deserve many more views for this, these games were my childhood! thank you for giving each game its own spotlight
I know it’s been a while but I just found this video and your channel. Def subscribing, awesome work!
Oh dear god what a nostalgia trip! Sandman just might be the first ever game I remember playing. Nitrome was way ahead of every other flash game site during the mid-2000s. Only Miniclip, Armor games and Newgrounds could come even close.

Shit, my interest in flash games started to wane after I got a DSi as well
As I'm concerned, Nitrome created some of the best flash games out there. Games like Final Ninja Zero, Fat Cat and Skywire series.
Ah man I love Nitrome music, how can you say it's usually "average or under average"
Bro your Videos are an other Level of editing! My respect!
This is such a nostalgia blast... I'm thinking of making a video similar to this. Probably not playing all the games though lol
Good vid, and you're welcome for watching in its entirety.
Kept making slight comparisons of my own to games I've played while watching.
For Play -- Basically Connect 4 like mentioned.
Hot Air -- About as original as it get s from what I can see, what with how unique controls are.
Sandman -- Frustrating version of the Lemmings; Not even Kaizo, just overall... time-wasting Lemmings.
Chick Flick -- Anybody remember the "Fire" game from Game & Watch? A unique spin on that.. or you can loosely say Brick Breaker / Javanoid games.
Roly Poly -- Those little small maze things you used to get when you were younger, maybe from McDonalds where you had a small ball and had to rotate it to get it in the middle. Kinda like that.
Feed Me -- Umihara Kawase games or even before that, Bionic Commando are what come to mind looking at this game. Neat.
Gift Wrapped -- Mentioned like the Mario 64 DS game but I know it from what inspired that one: "Where's Waldo?"
Scribble -- Better Lemmings. In fact, you could say Lemmings meets Kirby: Canvas Curse. The environmental destruction feels very Worms-esque as well.
Frostbite -- Same as Feed Me that it reminded of Umihara Kawase or Bionic Commando -- more so the latter this time. Between the two games however, this feels WAY more like it.
Tanked Up -- Micro Machines (NES) with a battle mechanic twist that might make F-Zero liable to cry.
Magic Touch -- Makes me think of Educational games. I would say also Bubble Bobble, but that's SUPER loosely...
Skywire -- Another full on original to me, very interesting. Though it's usually physics based games that really shineee.
Space Hopper -- Yeah, Super Mario Odyssey is on point. Only other relation is those rotating things you might play with too much in Scrap Brain Zone of Sonic 1. (Think they had those, maybe I'm thinking too much Metallic Madness from Sonic CD?)
Grief Hunt Air 2 -- It's like a Lost Levels version xD Do love the Super Mario Bros. 3 inspired looking level screen.
Square Meal -- One of the few times that it looks familiar but can't put my finger on it. (Also don't blame for nearly falling asleep on it)
Toxic -- Makes me think of Pocket Bomberman, old Game Boy game. However, Pocket Bomberman had only one bomb type, bombs can be placed in the air and used as platforms, etc. Different from this game here.
Yin Yang -- The black and white conceptI've seen in an versus indie game before but not used as a puzzle game... interesting.
Nanobots -- Looks like an expanded Asteroids but given your commentary, expanded in the wrong direction..
The Rails -- Reminds me of the small mini-game in Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga (but WAYY more better looking and fleshed out) or Mario Party's Handcar Havoc minigame but 2D. Nice looking
Head Case -- Kinda flipping VVVVVV on its head, haha. However, I think the game fails from not being as fast as VVVVVV.
Pest Control -- Like mentioned in video, Mario Paint's fly swapping minigame expanded.
Twink -- Wow. This one is pretty cool, Kirby: Canvas Curse mixed with Angry Birds going a bit there but that's just scraping the surface what with the rubberbands around. The physics based games are always a delight to look at.
Thin Ice -- Actually pretty neat and different. If Dig Dug 2 (yes, there's a Dig Dug 2) was less stiff and actually used 360 movement instead of 4 way movement, then I could see this.
Snowdrift -- Super Mario Bros. 3 , that's it. Sonic games got brought up as well so that too if they fused the sliding part and slow platforming into one -- but definitely more SMB3 to me.
Jack Frost -- Looks like a more tedious version of Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle... and yes Splatoon before Splatoon didn't think of that. Or the Graffiti game mode in Tony Hawk Pro Skater games.
Aquanaut -- Like mentioned, just like their Hot Air games. The way you hop out of water can't help me wish it was more Ecco the Dolphin.
Go Go UFO -- Movement mechanic is different but reminds me of the tightly packed levels in Crash Bash's racing games (Dot Dash, Toxic Dash, etc.).
The Fortress of Steam -- First platformer that made me feel like I'm looking at a Metroid game. Just imagine going through Super Metroid (SNES) with rarely unequipping the Grappling Hook, heh. Though that's a loose thing to say since using the Grappling Hook as a weapon in Super Metroid absolutely sucked while this looks much fluid and well suited.
Magna Boy -- Wow, not exact-exact but the way you move can sometimes make me feel like slipping on Ice in Chip's Challenge.
Cheese Dreams -- familiar looking but can't put finger on it. Not like if you just kept the Ball Ability in some Kirby games, but something else..
Snot Put -- Feels like every fourth flash game ever xD A good ol' game of... well.. Shot Put, yeah.
Knuckleheads -- Another neat looking game to me.
Sky Wire 2 -- See Sky Wire 1.
Small Fry -- neat, like the games mentioned that it reminds of Scribble and Sandman, but the way the drag and drop happens just now reminds me of Scribblenauts (Unlimited).
These feel pretty polished and complete for flash games
I am 32 and I just discovered Nitrome mobiles gaes yesterday... since then I did not know there were any good mobile games.
I played almost all of these as a kid and they all have such good memories such heavy nostalgia I love their style and unique games
great video for such a small channel
Very well made video.
Great video. I'm surprised you have this few subs.
Incredibly well put-together video.
Amazing work for a first video honestly
Nice man, this deserves alot more views. Shame it’s such a niche subject
You are so underrated
Love the nitrome love! Best of luck with part 2!
I am not standing for square meal slander
This video was great!
I first played Feed Me on Miniclip back in 2006, but didn't know it was only a recent addition at the time. But yeah, despite its highs and lows and not playing every single game, I've had fond memories playing these games. I just wish there was more special types of games for PC and consoles, so I wouldn't have to rely on the mobile market to look at their newer games. Though that's probably due to my lack of knowledge of said titles, since like I previously said: I didn't know about or play all of their games.
Please please please release part 2 before the end of the year
About that... I definitely know Flash will reach end-of-life at the end of the year and if you're worried about that killing off the other parts, rest assured that I have a plan regarding that. I'll give more details in an upcoming update video, but trust me, I wouldn't make a 4-part series that depends on a dying plugin without some kind of plan B.
@@SuperclassYT Ok I'll wait. Nitrome's games are not on the Flashpoint. And their html5 project is really slow
reminder that tablets and 2-in-1 laptops exist and graphical tablets for this type of things
This video and the second part is criminally underrated
20:22 (magic touch) - wow, this one actually looks interesting and stands a little out
- i mean, mechanically
- can see how tedious and obnoxious the gameplay would be
“What kind of game turns the goal into a hazard?!”
Super Mario Bros USA: *visible sweating *
I hope part 2 releases soon!
I have thought about doing something like this for a long time. Do you think there is a flash game market on twitch?
Considering that for all intents and purposes Flash games are "retro" your audience would either be people who feel nostalgic about them (like me!) or people who are curious to see what these games are like. I'd say give it a shot and see what happens. You might just find a niche! Although keep in mind that you'll probably have to use Flashpoint or do something else after Flash Player reaches end-of-life at the end of the year.
