For those coming after the Flash death date, you can't play the game here anymore but you CAN still play the game using these steps:
1. Go to bluemaxima.org/flashpoint as suggested below by Fierra Star
2. Go to downloads and dowload one of the versions, I personally went with the Infinity version, which I recommend.
3. Once the download completes, go to your downloads folder and extract the files. It may want to extract to your downloads folder, but don't let it or it won't run. Extract them into a new folder on your desktop.
4. Go into that folder and click the Start Flashpoint shortcut. Then, click on the games list and search Starwish, then play. Once it loads click the Play button on the right, the "Game Start" button from here will be absent.
5. Enjoy! If you still have trouble, you can find a Flashpoint manual in the FAQ section of the BlueMaxima website.
Hope this helps some of you capture some of the nostalgia I feel every time I play this game. Have fun, and fly true
Came back 7 years after beating the game the first time to finally get the special ending before flash stops being supported. This is as much of a masterpiece now as it was then. I did some digging and saw the developer was active and teasing a new game, possibly another game in this franchise, as recently as 2018. Hopefully they're doing well wherever they are, and while it may not be likely after 9 years the small chance of a sequel still exists, so we can hope.
I just beat EPIC BOSS MODE but died right at the end. Instead of telling me I won or sending me back to try again, it just keeps raining body parts. I went away for 20 minutes hoping it was some sort of super gore scene to end the game, but nothing has changed. Hopefully this bug gets fixed, because its a 5/5 game otherwise
If you came down here to comment on the weak name, boring title screen, or slow start to the story, scroll back up and keep playing right now. You will not regret it. This turns into one of the most compelling stories in any game I have ever seen, and the art is remarkably detailed. Also, play with sound on. The music adds a lot to the experience
