• Adobe’s once-mighty plug-in will stop working soon, not a moment too soon. Some old Flash games, however, are great—and clever workarounds will save them.

Throughout the 2000s and early 2010s, Adobe Flash was a major multimedia creation platform, used for making videos, games and various interactive applications.^[1] Web content created using Flash could be exported as SWF files and run on any web browser which had the free Adobe Flash Player plugin.

With the advent of HTML5, a HTML iteration which allowed for much more flexible multimedia management, Flash began a slow decline. In 2015, Adobe began openly advocating for HTML5, citing that it was a mature open standard.^[1] Over the coming years, Flash would continue to decline in popularity.^[2] In 2017, Adobe would go on to announcing their plans to retire Flash by 2020.^[3]

While the creation of new Flash content might be out of the question, the ability to run old SWF files has been a major digital preservation concern.^[4]

In 2016, Mike Welsh would begin a pet project called Fluster.^[5] Later renamed Ruffle, this project would morph into a Flash Player emulator written in Rust, with a desktop and web client.^[6]

In 2020, the Internet Archive announced they would be using Ruffle to preserve Flash games and animations.^[7]

Following Flash's discontinuation announcement and lessened browser support of Flash Player, Ruffle was chosen by Armor Games as a Flash Player emulator for their website.^[8] The Flash-based website Homestar Runner followed suit on December 31st, 2020 with a website overhaul and implementation of Ruffle for their cartoons and games.^[9] Usb elicenser cubase.

Ruffle is currently under open source development on GitHub.^[10] Sponsors of the project include websites primarily based around Flash content such as Newgrounds and Coolmath Games.

Features[edit]

Ruffle is available natively in Rust, as a desktop client and as a web client.

Currently, Ruffle supports older Flash content which uses ActionScript 1/2.0 with ActionScript 3.0 support upcoming.^[11][12]
