I wrote a few bullet points after listening to the episode, and I've expanded them from memory. I'm sorry if I'm attributing anything to you that wasn't actually said. I'd like to offer a different perspective to some of the issues raised:

1. Lack of preservation

---

You mention the lack of preservation compared to PC and console games. I agree, however I don't think it's mainly due to lack of interest, as there's a bigger hurdle, and a reason for the bias towards other games: Most flash games are transmitted online, and played from inside the browser, and weren't saved as files on the computer. There aren't as many copies of the games because there was no need to. You just visited the website.

Also, some games involved a dedicated website backed by a server. Those are even harder to preserve unless the source code is provided.

Six Match review

This game is weird. Fun, but weird.

I've reached a high score that I don't think I can, or want to beat, and I don't think I want to play the game again, even though I enjoyed it while I did. I'm also very confused about others' experiences. I have only played about 5 games, and reached a score of 9000+ twice.

I think this stems from me treating it as something other than what it was designed to be. Maybe I'm taking too seriously, and misinterpreting the intentions behind its design. Maybe both the designer and other players see it in another light.
