If you made the adventure one with the Power Puff Girls, Dexter, Cow & Chicken, etc then thank you.

Something about a pool party? I remember that one

I think you're talking about the summer resort games, which are also my favorite.

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.

Interesting approach. The key question for adoption is usually about the migration path — how painful is it for existing teams to switch, and what does the intermediate state look like?

I made this port, thanks for sharing it! The reason this game doesn't appear in the original list is because it was made in Shockwave, not Flash. I'm curious if there is any kind of emulator for Shockwave being worked on like what Ruffle is for Flash.

Thank you for bringing back a piece of my childhood!

Thanks for whoever preserved these! The CartoonNetwork website was one of my most fondest memories from my childhood. These days the official website redirects to their YouTube channel which I feel is very sad. There used to be places for kids on the internet, now everything is heading towards major platforms which I honestly feel is going to be damaging the youth in the long term.

What about the short term? Even edgy angst flash movies like Sallad fingers on Newgrounds is pretty cutsie by modern big tech standards.

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!

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 record store? Dunno if it was a tie in for a specific episode I don't remember now, but it's quite a funny premise, and a fun game too.

If you worked on any of these games, thank you! I spent so many hours back then on those, and many others.

I still had dial up back then, and I couldn't stay online for long. Eventually I figured out that if I kept the website open, then disconnected (rather than closing then disconnecting, which was what my parents taught me), the games would still work. Which is obvious to me now, of course, but as a 6~7 year old, who had no idea of how any of this worked, I felt like an actual, proper hacker. I literally just had the thought, "wait, what if..." and was promptly rewarded. I've been chasing that high ever since :)

From then on, my evening routine after school was connecting, picking the 3~4 games I wanted to play for that night, letting them load, disconnecting, and playing to my heart's content. If I hacked anything that fateful night, it was my parent's main excuse to get me off the computer!
