Miss this. Downloaded a Shockwave emulator ages ago to play it again.

Thanks so much for this, wingster3! I definitely am of its time. Much respect to its creator -they wrote a nice bit about their thinking and aesthetic and namedropped an ispirational film, "Crystal Voyager" (1974)... next thing on my list, I guess... Thanks as well to the content/platform archiving project. I had actually just finished listening to and recording the webloops before seeing this post. I installed the flashpoint and began to play. Window of game stayed small but I recorded it to watch later. Will definitely be back at it. Was concerned at first that only first six levels appeared to have loaded but they advance when you move forward. Sweet!

Update: I've saved a timestamped edit of the entire sequence here:
I haven't thought of any other old flash animations to even start looking for yet. Thank you, OP!
