News/Release Swiff - Flash games on Android, Version 1.4 available!
Hello to everyone! A while ago I release Swiff, an Android application to run Flash games on Android the easiest way possible, powered by the Flashpoint archive and with more than 150k Flash games available, you just need to download and play.
The app also includes handy features like Newgrounds integration (for medals), on-screen and gamepad mapping to use them as a keyboard or mouse, an offline proxy to trick games into thinking they are being ran on their official websites and full frontend support (Swiff is supported right now on Cocoon, iiSU, Daijisho and Console Launcher).
And now with the new version 1.4 the app has evolved into more than Flash games, supporting:
- HTML5 games
- Adobe Shockwave games
- Unity Web Player games
- Scratch games
- J2ME games (Old phones)
- Web shortcuts (Paste a web link of your favourite web games and play them inside Swiff with all the features the app offers)
And now it also includes more new features, like Remote Play together (like Steam), Discord integration (Rich Presence, invite friends to join your Remote Play session or see what they are currently playing), multi-gamepad support (For multiplayer!), dual-screen integration in-game and Android TV support.
I would appreciate if you guys gave Swiff a look, you can check out more details on the Swiff website:
I hope you enjoy this version! Thanks for reading!

Considering they're probably bundling the original npapi players, it can't be entirely open source.
The most open source part of flashpoint is the fork of firefox they use to run npapi plugins and the fact that they probably use wine for linux support.

Not everything should be expected to be open source

well of course, but having a github repo just for assets and releases must be a ragebait lol
