Serious Games in a Flash

Eliane Alhadeff’s Future-Making Serious Games blog is loaded with recent posts on the subject and her photo set of serious games on Flickr brings dozens of screenshots together in one place. Tracing the source of this image I found it was from Ayiti: the Cost of Life which was chosen “best simulation of 2006″ by Jay Is Games. Also of note, this sim and four of five runner ups were developed in Flash. I’ve taken note of that and will consider adding a section on Flash to the Serious Game Engine Shootout I’m writing at the moment.
