I absolutely will!  Thanks for the callout of some of your creations.

I remember fondly the countless flash games, many of which never were translated, but laid the foundation for other wonderful HTML5 successors. I'm still bewildered that Adobe just abandoned the format altogether, rather than find a way to partner with Apple for rendering on mobile devices, since it was, after all, Apple that ditched full support for Flash.  Much like the entire web, the future (and the majoritarian present today) is purely mobile.
