launcher VS peek

In you want to play old Flash/Shockwave/etc games, download Flashpoint. The Linux build is currently experimental, but you can also run the Windows build via Wine/Proton.

Flashpoint: This is less of a website and more of a downloadable archive of Flash games of the past.

The Flashpoint project has preserved a lot of that.

You're looking for Flashpoint then.

I was expecting "Attempt 3" to involve Bluemaxima's Flashpoint, and was surprised not to see it mentioned. Does anyone know why that wouldn't have been an option, or is this essentially what Attempt 1 would have involved?

For anyone not familiar with Flashpoint, it's a project to preserve old flash games and animations and keep them playable on modern platforms. It's open source and includes a huge library (including it looks like Hapland 1-3).

Used to play this all the time, back then. It can still be played offline with BlueMaxima's Flashpoint: https://bluemaxima.org/flashpoint/

You can through Flashpoint

Maybe check Flashpoint?

Peek

Peek: Allows recording portions of the screen in many file formats (GIF, MP4, WebM).

I used this: https://github.com/phw/peek

On linux, i like peek[0] quite a lot. Its ui is straighforward, and it can export to gif, webv and mp4. However it's only compatible with X11 as far as i know.

I was just looking for an alternative solution to Peek which will work natively with Wayland. Any suggestions?
