Runs pretty well for something that's still in development. Strong contender for the future go to player for flash games.
some SWF contains ActionScript 3 which is not yet supported by Ruffle. The movie may not work as intended.
I mean ruffle now has decent support for actionscript 3
I have a swf that has a movie in it. The Ruffle emulator opens up the browser to play the movie instead of inside the emulator itself.
User-friendly, devs seem to genuinely care!
The Ruffle project has an online demo where you can upload an SWF file for playback, through the use of WebAssembly. I uploaded a random flash movie from years ago and it worked perfectly. Here's a direct link to the Ruffle online demo: https://ruffle.rs/demo/
The example I uploaded only had basic mouse interaction, I haven't yet tried interactive flash games yet.
There's actually a project called
Flashpoint Archive and another called "Flash Games Archive" that have thousands of SWF flash games. Both are dubious seeming executable programs, so be careful.
