Flash game featuring anime-style imagery.
Flash Games were a popular form of digital media during the mid-2000s. The vast majority were programmed via Adobe Flash, a multimedia software platform used for the production of animations, mobile games, and embedded video players. Aimed primarily at predominantly male audience, most Flash Games were highly pornographic in nature.

Programming

Adobe's ActionScript programming language allowed for the development of interactive RPGs, many of which were distributed through open source portals like Newgrounds and Kongregate. Literally millions of Fetish Flash Games appeared across the web throughout the 2010s until the format was replaced by HTML5. A tiny percentage of this figure has been preserved by the Flashpoint project and Archive.org (see links below).

BDSM games

Relatively few BDSM-themed Flash Games have been produced at this time (although pornographic content forms a significant proportion of the overall consumer demographic). Nevertheless, various attempts were made in the mid 2000s, especially in venues with a large amateur membership. While these early entries were simple experiments, the software offered the possibility for more sophisticated work, and the freeware status made it accessible to a potentially huge user base.

A number of BDSM "adventures" were proposed through online communities, with actual production meeting varying levels of success. Many were text-based interactive games supported by minimal graphics; a few of the more ambitious projects utilized high resolution images and animated sequences.

Theoretically, a user could assume any role within a BDSM storyline. A well-designed game might also offer sound effects, animation and high-resolution illustrations to enhance gameplay. Prior to the platform's 2020 demise, 3D models and backgrounds could be imported onto the game stage, allowing for hyper-realistic rendering and figurework.
