...Its goal is to enable legacy Flash content—animations, games, interactive media—to continue running safely and reliably after official Flash support was discontinued. On the web side, Ruffle is embedded into pages or installed as a browser extension; in the desktop version, it can open .swf files directly or embed them in applications. Because it’s built with memory safety in mind, Ruffle helps avoid many of the security vulnerabilities that plagued classic Flash (buffer overflows, use-after-free, etc.). It strives to support multiple versions of ActionScript (1, 2 and parts of 3) and a wide swath of the Flash API so as much content as possible works unchanged.

The nesbox/emulator is an open source, browser-based emulator for a collection of retro gaming systems (NES, Super Nintendo, Sega Mega Drive, GameBoy, etc.). It’s written in ActionScript/Flash, and the project includes SWF binaries so you can embed the emulator into web pages. The emulator allows users to load ROMs and play them in their browsers via the Flash plugin. It’s licensed under the MIT license, meaning it’s quite permissive in terms of reuse. While Flash is an aging technology, the project remains a practical way to access old console gaming via browser, as long as Flash is supported or available.
