Ho this is sad. One of my favorite game was motherload (https://www.miniclip.com/games/motherload https://www.miniclip.com/games/motherload) before Minecraft was a thing. And this is what really got me into programming, I created a clone (https://github.com/Sytten/MineDeeper https://github.com/Sytten/MineDeeper) in C++ when I was in high school in 2012 (I even did fancy smart pointer stuff before it was cool). See https://www.developpez.net/forums/d1276790-2/applications/developpement-2d-3d-jeux/projets/minedeeper-jeu-creusage/#post7179598 https://www.developpez.net/forums/d1276790-2/applications/de... for a screenshot in desktop mode. I made friends on this French dev community that even became IRL friends and that I later visited when I visited France. So many memories, farewell!

In case you miss it that much, you can now get non-flash Motherload on Steam (Super Motherload includes both the sequel and a full clone of the original game): https://store.steampowered.com/app/269110/Super_Motherload/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/269110/Super_Motherload/

I love that game too! Such a great game, that little game even has a final boss! I sent miniclip a mail in 2012 asking for how to start programming and developing games and they replied! i still have that email in my inbox. At that time i was in highschool too but didn't start programming or anything related until university lol.
