I recently tried out a demo of a "high-speed" side-scrolling game library for flash. It ran OK, but not terribly impressive considering how little was going on. But it seemed really familiar somehow... Eventually I realized that it was nearly identical in both content and performance to a Univesa (like DirectDraw for MS DOS) demo that I ran on my Pentium1 60Mhz back in 1996.
