I would so love if Adobe would just spin off Macromedia again. I remember working on Flex frontends with CF engineers in the early 2000s and ...I mean, there is no reason that couldn't be updated to be a killer framework now if it worked with modern stacks.
Not surprising, but sad that Adobe flacks don't even know what it is. The world would be a lot more interesting if Macromedia was still a going concern, maybe aligned with Unity or some other ecosystem for game production.

- noduerme 4y agoWe built some games in Flash/Air that compiled to native iOS apps... they basically bundle the whole flash player into the game. It was and still is a working way to make an iOS game, it's just that Adobe no longer supports the plugin version... and you can't really trust them to support anything else going forward, so most devs moved to other languages and stacks like Unity.
