I would like to find some games to embed into my web page. I see in the source code that some people have games made by other companies on their servers so it means they downloaded the flash file. Where can I download these flash files for free and can I just download any flash file on any site using some software? Can I just go to a site, see a game, and just use the URL they are using for the flash file or not? I know that sites like Miniclip and Addicting games provide the code if you need to embed their games, but how do you use games that are on other sites?
Use Orbit Downloader , it allows you to download flash games from sites just like videos . search for orbit Downloader .
But is it legal to download these games to my server? If I see a game on some site which clearly is not the maker/owner of the game, that means I can also save it to my server? Also, I see many gaming sites linking to other sites and using the games from their servers. Isn't that leeching in a way?
Lotos , I Think You Have To mention The copyrights & credits If You Want To be 100 % Legal . For Me I'd Ignore Them . They Can't Harm anybody . More Than 80 % of internet users are using internet for illegal purposes such as downloading movies and games . So Don't worry They won't Close your site or fine you for such a small thing .
Many flash games are made specilly for the purpose of advertising as the games have thier ads on the game so i guess these are allowed to be put on the sites
Not. Hotlinking is bad. You can't use any game you want. No. In all cases, you should go to the site of the author and/or sponsor and see if the game is available for distribution. Terms and conditions for use vary.
games that display the embed code to be put into your website want to share those games cause links to their sites and anchors are normally in the code its increasing their reputation. so if you see a game you want to embed and the codes underneith then go for it miniclip is a good website to look at
