Wow, awesome. There's also a few on the Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/softwarelibrary_flash_unsorted?t... (In case the OP also made you think of Teen Titans Battle Blitz for the first time in 20 years)

That game was so much fun, thanks for the reminder

Does anyone remember that Gorillaz flash game? You basically just had a dune buggy and drove around in a 3D world over some randomly scattered obstacles and terrain. That was my entire computer class in 9th grade. (that and harrassing teachers with netsend)

GET THE COOL SHOE SHINE!

My favorite three aren't in there. All Dexter's Lab themed, now that I think about it. One was puzzle game where you had to bounce a laser off of mirrors to pop balloons. The second was kind of a Chip's Challenge kind of deal I think, where you as Dexter were running away from an out of control robot, and had to collect some computer chips or something. And in the third game, Dexter was running, inexplicably, a recor…

I enjoyed the Dexter's one which was a point and click adventure where you had to solve puzzles.

Doh, I did some work on some CN games back in the day -- but don't see any of those here. Hopefully they keeping adding to it!

Same, none of the ones I worked on. But I did more work for Nickelodeon than CN, so I'm not really surprised. I only remember one CN one I did, but I might have worked on two or three that I'd know if I saw them again...

There are very few from 2008-2012 which is when I was working on that.

Something about a pool party? I remember that one

I think you're talking about the summer resort games, which are also my favorite. You can play here: https://mattbruv.github.io/ccsr/ I don't know if it's nostalgia or what, but I still have fun playing it. Which can't be said for a lot of games.

WOW YES OMG

do you remember what the wrestling kinda game with ed ed and eddy was?

So did I. Your username suggests we might be from the same country. If so, we must have worked for the same awful person of a boss!

(I briefly thought that maybe you were that awful person, but he wouldn't be caught dead in HN; his whole thing was to exploit and abuse the people who did the actual work and forbid them from taking credit or even mentioning the work in a CV)

Oh wow.. No DLCs.. No seasons.. No paid content. Just content.. No advertisements outside of the whole game being what it is.. This is actually amazing to see.. These days, with these amazing machines, amazing frameworks, and all the possibilities, and we're now aiming not to provide experiences that are enjoyable on their own merit, but something else.. the "joy" part is a checkbox that's prioritized only to the lowest viable point, because the content is something else, it's advertisement or user-retention or user-capture or just plain old data-harvesting.. Sure, flash was a security nightmare, but the technology was amazing, on the same 100 pentium machine that struggeled with letting Coral zoom in on a part of a vector image, Flash would happily fill the screen with animation done using morphing vectors..

I remember that day, when news told that Apple wouldn't allow Flash.. I remember thinking, that was the beginning of the end.

Yes, it was proprietary, and all of that, but it was really, really good for its time, and it's still good. So much culture.. So much zeitgeist. Locked into files of that era.

Thank you so much for sharing!
