Very cool but I feel like it would be better served by porting away from flash

I don't get why they can't just be run in this https://ruffle.rs/

I think ruffle makes more sense if they weren't actively developing it and just wanted a straight port of the originals.

Probably would result in a less than optimal user experience since it is still in development and has bugs and graphical glitches especially on Later Flash games (Actionscript 3).
