Some of you might remember when a 3mb flash animation could pack in some 5 minutes of animation, with the more advanced ones even having chapter/scene selectors, which could also include clickable easter eggs and other kinds of interactions during the scenes.
Recently found an old .fla of a game I made in highschool, and I have no idea how to turn it into a playable file. Would love to recover it

I’ll check that out. I thought that a .fla is the project file, and .swf would be the game.
ah you’re right, ruffle documentation isn’t clear if it can open fla file instead of the compiled
You can find Adobe Flash Player still (just maybe not directly from Adobe) and just run the .FLA through it. No conversion needed unless you wanted to put it back on a website.
Ultra bad advice, flash player was installed at system level and it opens a huge security gap on the system (although I think it would not install at all in modern systems)
Plus when it calls the adobe servers, it downloads the “final” update which automatically disables/uninstalls it
Alternative interpreter: https://ruffle.rs/downloads
edit: i misunderstood, yes adobe flash, the editor app, can still be cracked (they don’t rent it anymore) and run on modern systems
Yea, not hard to boot up a VM
