Kongregate is still a thing? I thought the move away from flash games killed the names of my youth but I suppose they transitioned somewhere

But they got rid of the ability for people to post their own games to the site and ditched chat, so it's old format is effectively dead.

Also all those sites are still online and you don't even need flash to play anything

Ahh Kongregate. Haven't heard that name in a long time. I'm surprised they're still around.

Kongregate was my teenagehood. I met so many amazing virtual friends through there.
