Good morning, how are you today? I have been bouncing around in a maze of strange changes. One of the biggest adjustments comes with me being selected to teach a Video Game Design class for Cybercamps this summer. It will be a thrill, and I have a question for you.
Are there any simple flash games that you especially enjoy? Link me up. Thanks.

This game is a blast. Posted about it on my blog about a month ago. http://ranmavs.blogspot.com/2008/04/lookit-me-im-spider-man.html
It’s like being Spider-Man, hehe.

I’ve always loved this one:

At first it seems a bit simple, but you can actually reach great distances with a little skill.

I can’t find my favourite one, I haven’t played it in over a year.
It was called Spider… or something like that. It had really nice painted-style graphics. You control a spider with the mouse– as you click and hold, he follows your mouse. When you pull the mouse down below the ground level, it kinda charges a spring– then when you let go, the “spring” releases and the spider jumps away from your mouse. It’s a really neat mechanic.
The purpose of the game is to eat. Bugs come and go on the screen– mostly flies and gnats, but occasionally a big, fluffy bee. However, there are also fireflies– these hurt you. You need to jump around the screen, eating edible bugs, and avoiding fireflies.
I know it sounds really lame, but it’s actually a lot of fun, and the graphics are really great for a Flash game. The spider in particular has a realistic walking system– he uses all his legs to clamber over the uneven terrain to follow your mouse.
I highly recommend it, and I wish I could still find it.

Well. I just spent 20 minutes playing flOw, that’s pretty much my favourite one now.
