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)
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 recor…

Is it possible to just download individual SWF files?
Can just grab them out of the cache once they've been downloaded, wherever they're stored.
Some of it was the death of Flash (though with Ruffle now there may be hope) but the web now just feels much less diverse. Or possibly I just miss being a teenager. Or some combination
I think part of it also is that, games with the same scope of flash games are still being made, but they're being made for phones which is where the customers. Flash games were the perfect mobile game before mobile games existed.
But the magic was that flash games were created on the same machines they were made on, so curious players (often kids!) had a natural funnel in to dabbling with the creation side, so whole communities of creatives formed naturally.
I don't know how we can solve this disconnect between creation and consumption :( Sure there's many apps that let you build content from phones (swift playgrounds, other game-making apps, and now a whole gold rush of agentic prompting app-building apps...) but a phone is inherently non-immersive so I don't know how a creator can ever get into a flow state of building content on a phone itself.
But also we possibly just miss being teens on computers.

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.
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.

The Infinity version lets you download as you go rather than download the whole 2TB+! archive. Can just grab them out of the cache once they've been downloaded, wherever they're stored.

I just want to download swf files without installing anything. Then I'll load them up in real Adobe Flash (Flash Projector).
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)
