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

        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).

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