    Oh my, I feel like I got my game back. Incomparably better experience on flash then on Unity.

    Not to argue, but was it 10 years really? Think at that time I played my first instance of Farmerama with pleasure. And played some flash based games before? Anyway, the point taken and understood. But at the moment the difference for me is a good game and no game.

    I so totally agree. I do so hope they can get all the bugs worked out because I was so ready to give up the other night the only reason I fought so hard with it was to give a report.

    My game is rubbish today - worse than Unity! Is it trying to tell me something.

    Just got my first automated message stating Flash is ending Dec 31 and asking if I want to delete the program now.

    I am in this dilemma too, as iam currently playing this game on my mobile this simple fact mobiles and tablets not powerful enough to run unity Web GL it is more hungry for GPU and memory compared to flash

    I haven't logged in for few days when I wasn't able to play this game in unity to my likinmy it still has many bugs touchscreen is worse in unity flash is much better

    Loading in Unity is too slow for my liking compared to flash I am currently playing with using Puffin it is Flash Based Browser

    if we wish to enjoy this game we will be needing a laptop or pc in 2021, but the usefulness of playing this game on mobile i am able to harvest my farm frequently especially during events when I am travelling or out shopping I often login when I am in cafe

    I do not wish to carry laptop on my travels so my farm is not in idle status when my harvester is active like to use it efficiently it brings joy to this game

    It would be a bit daft if we needed a gaming PC or laptop to play simple web browser game like Farmerama with pretty much static screen, no animated moving through space etc. Is HTML5 better in this respect after all?

    Norton, I am hoping anyone with a decent newish mobile or tablet would be suffice to play farmerama even when flash support is withdrawn from any browser's

    As we have to take into consideration that Unity WebGL is just substitute emulator alternative to flash that can be coded so we can do all the things in our day to day farming of farmerama at the moment Unity slower than flash there is lots of caching and buffing with 100s macro running which is constantly making amendments to our farms across many servers

    Just pray and hope things will be ok

    Don't worry PC owners. If I believe my eyes, Unity not yet become to the only way to log in. It is just the second option couple of weeks before obligatory;)

    With Adobe stopping support for the Adobe Flash Player and Microsoft removing the Flash Player from all web browsers in a coming Windows Update. Unity will soon be the only option, you wanted or not. :cry:

    Adobe has reminded me already three times to remove flash.

    Same here. I keep telling it 'no' but I think I'll have to give in around Christmas.

    So flash was so bad it had to be removed. Now we have a new stuff ........ well ....... ok engine is bigger, it's usual trend, programmers do not know how to code lean software any more. But why is the graphic data bigger when it is the same thing? Progress of this type is always questionable for me. Is it really a progress? I am still puzzled why is such simple primitive game so bulky? It spells bad coding to me. Will this be the end of my gaming? Don't know yet, but possible.

    Today I was pleasantly surprised how good the game runs. :) It took me a few moments to realize I was not in Unity actually, but back in Flash. :) :) :)

    Flash is bad and I won't miss it at all, it's a shame so many great games were created on such a piece of junk platform. Unity is technologically superior to Flash in every way and it's only up to bigpoint to polish it and make it better than Flash.

    Well, this piece of junk platform as you call it is still faster, more reliable, leaner and better performing in all aspects of player experience including graphics then this technologically superior junk being imposed on us now. My return to flash today means I can play as usual, without fighting with scores of even critical bugs of Unity.

    Long live flash ! ............ :)
