After recently re-sampling the flash game selection on the Express Gate partition on my new Asus W90Vp (don't make fun of me... purizu?) I found a little game called "Bowja the Ninja"... 3 to be exact. Still. Very awesome game.
Which made me think... at other times through my life I've stumbled across little flash game gems. You know the ones that AREN'T just another rip off of tetris or breakout or KISS dolls or whatever. Things that actually had effort thrown in.
Whether it's on Newgrounds or the media portal built into the OEM laptop you just bought (or that laptop and or motherboard's Splashtop OS's selection of games) there always seems to be... every now and then... a flash game, as marred by and drenched in advertising breaks and pop-ups as they may be, that's actually worth playing.
So does anyone know of any flash game aggregate sites actually worth my time, that aren't simply glorified google ad keyword aggregates with some shitty flash game ripoffs sprinkled in for good measure?
Newgrounds is an obvious one... but that's more for my flash video fix. Like Metal Gear AWESOME... yeah I think I'm going to go watch that again after I finish this post.
It's hard to also find dcent developers/publishers of flash games considering they're so... not even "indie" so much as... esoteric... kind of... guerilla developers. I respect that.... even if it does make it hard to follow them.
I can't find the homepage of the Bowja the Ninja series... the developer's website (if they have one) or anything like that, so for now deal with this:
http://www.freewebarcade.com/game/bowja-the-ninja/Similar to my beef with etailers, free flash game websites also have similar problems with the end-user searching, sorting, and generally finding content (or "product") that is useful or meaningful to them. (or even just plain WHAT they came to the site LOOKING for instead of "oh hey while you're here let me ram my slapchop advertisement down your fucking eyeballs and out your asshole")
