For some context adobe flash player (what town of salem uses.) will shut down in 2020, as announced by adobe themselfs. (read more about it HERE.) and i'm just curious what will blank media games do? will it shut down?, convert to other platforms?
i'm unsure what will other flash games will do, like newgrounds games and many others. i'm, and i am sure many others hope town of salem wont shut down. as quoted by them(skip past the underlined text to skip the paraphrase) "But as open standards like HTML5, WebGL and WebAssembly have matured over the past several years, most now provide many of the capabilities and functionalities that plugins pioneered and have become a viable alternative for content on the web." and "Given this progress, and in collaboration with several of our technology partners – including Apple, Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Mozilla – Adobe is planning to end-of-life Flash. Specifically, we will stop updating and distributing the Flash Player at the end of 2020 and encourage content creators to migrate any existing Flash content to these new open formats." and i'm worried as we inch closer and closer to 2020.
