The Belle and Sebastian Flash Collection
Before 2010, the Belle and Sebastian website contained lots of fun Flash games which are a great example of early to mid 2000s internet. Since they were taken off of the website in 2010 the only way to play them is via archive.org. This is is a rather clunky experience that isn't helped by the fact there is more Belle and Sebastian flash stuff which isn't on their main site.
Purely in the interest of archiving all of the Belle and Sebastian Flash stuff that I could find I decided to make an especially designed launcher in Flash for all of these games which completely immerses you in all of the 2000s web glory.
Flash Movies included: I'm A Cuckoo, Wrapped Up In Books, Dear Catastrophe Waitress Game, Push Barman to Open Old Wounds Game, Virtual Neil (Limited functionality) and the Dear Catastrophe Waitress Minisite. (There's also a Music Player that lets you listen to all of the music in each of the games)
It also runs on a very wide variety of platforms including: Windows (x86-64), Intel Macintosh, Apple Silicon Macintosh, PowerPC Macintosh (not kidding!) and GNU+Linux

Wise Words
An idiot admires complexity, a genius admires simplicity. An idiot, anything the more complicated something he is the more he will admire it. If you make something so complicated, an idiot will think you are a god because you made something so complicated nobody can understand it.
