Flash Version of Adventure

Posted by michael on from the kill-the-dragon dept.

While you've been able to play it on a wide variety of emulators for a while, now playing in your web browser is just one click away. Yes, that's right, someone has gone and created a flash version of Adventure." I haven't checked it yet to see if you can get the "dot".

    How does this get to be front page news? Seriously, is this just a slashdot DDoS attack on some guy's page? Old games have been created in Flash since its genesis, and this is nothing special.

    If someone actually managed to write an actual emulator with Flash -- believe me, it could be done, as one was even written in QBasic a few years back -- then that would definitely be qualified for front page news. In fact, I'd hope it would be in the running for story of the year.

    It's probably nice work, but c'mon, editors -- it's not worth slashdotting some guy's homepage.
