One of my favorite sites was Newgrounds. Haven't visited in a while, how will they fare after this?

  They have an offline player as mentioned but also a community member was working on a WebAssembly based player.

    Is that going to run afoul of IP ownership? To my knowledge, Flash was never open-sourced, and Oracle v. Google casts shadows on API-compatible reverse engineering.

      Oracle v. Google is still working it's way through the courts, and those decisions were openly in conflict with normal precedent.

      Not sure but that is a good question. Although the VM bytecode spec is published by them. Not sure why really, they even release the file format spec. I would link but the links I knew changed recently and did not work for me.
