The Flash Project

Our latest project is up and ready to go! The Flash Project is another long-term project to create library assets for some of the most popular games created in Adobe Flash.

https://www.steamgriddb.com/projects/flash
The Flash Project For API users, we have a new external platform "flashpoint" that you can use to query assets via their game UUID.
Note that not all games in Flashpoint will exist in our database since we have to add/associate them manually. Anything currently in the project and any more we add are ready to use though!

    Voting and scoring update.

    The tests mentioned in the previous update are still underway. One of the more obvious changes is the introduction of a new sorting option. (Selected by default, the old one can still be manually selected.)

      Tests and stuff.

      In the next few weeks, we're going to be running some experimental tests and changes with how assets are discovered, sorted, and interacted with.
      Some of these tests will be obvious, some subtle, and some changes will be in the background and you probably won't notice anything.
      Everything introduced will be iterated upon or scrapped depending on the results. Not every change will be announced as they happen. Please bear with us.
