Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.
We used to get video games in the captain crunch box or in exchange for tokens on the crunch boxes or something to that effect... anyway that was essentially just a flash game but equally if not more interested. Got a lot of mileage out of that crunchwrare game in the 90s
For me, it’s the fact that every god damned program I want to use requires a fucking subscription.
Shout out to fucking Blender and GIMP and InkScape. They’re really keeping shit cool.
So sick of this “pay to play” structure we now have on EVERYTHING.
Am I misremembering or would corporate websites randomly have branded flash games
We got a free, breakfast-themed Doom total conversion .wad in boxes of Chex. Truly a golden age.
Most Aussies of around my age can remember getting (or at least knowing someone else who got) a full copy of Age of Empires on a CD contained in Kellogg's cereal. That was truly a great time.
ChexQuest marked humanity's peak
I remember script based marketting gimmicks like a percy jackson bolt thag would delete elements off a website
wtf happened to all the random fun gimmicks popping up, prob mobile browser support issuss
Generally speaking, giving javascript that much control over your browser was a security hazard.
But also, firms used to have much larger staffs. It wasn't just two marketing guys in a trench coat trying to tell you they were a $10B company.
I'm pretty sure it's specifically the battery life of mobile devices that's the issue.
Robot Unicorn Attack was my shit.
I'm sympathetic to the "Why does everything have to require a fucking login?"
But come on. So many of those games were just inferior reskins of classics. If you want to play Pac-Man, then play Pac-Man. You don't need to go to Lays.com and play Cheeto Crunchers, where a giant Chester Cheetah floating head chases snack foods through a maze.
I miss Kitten Cannon so much lmao, and Madness Interactive, and addictinggames . com (which iirc died so probably don't visit and yes the website was mispelled).
I remember seeing that game with the hammer and pot and not believing it was a flash game and that people paid for it.
My website has a game on it still lol
link?
