I don't mean with SuperNova which, while great, plays the game externally (and some games don't currently work such as Mardek RPG 3). In other words, you can't get badges or use previous saved data. The latter may have a work around that I'm not aware of but the former would require screenshotting for every badge which really isn't worth it.
So, I'm wondering if there is any kind of work around to this. Can any of the browsers still able to play Flash? Is there a flash alternative that keeps the game on the site?

Yes, it is possible to make Flash work. You need to use a browser that still supports Flash (IE11, Firefox 84, Chrome 87), and you need either to use a Flash version that does not yet have the Jan 12th timebomb, or to amend the flash configuration file on your computer that disables the Jan 12th timebomb for specific websites (can be several at once).
The configuration change is easy, it is described in the official Flash admin guide, and is intended for companies that have internal websites that use Flash (so that they can enable these).
Getting the older Flash version is also not a problem, the webarchive has it (the last version without the timebomb is 32.0.0.371).
I am not posting links because it would appear this triggers moderation and the post disappears.
Unfortunately, while this makes Flash work natively again, the games won't work on Kongregate specifically because they have put a hard block that makes you install Supernova and just does not serve the game. Unless they agree to make the Supernova redirect optional, there's little you can do.

Thanks for the info, that sucks though that there's no way to continue playing flash games to earn badges currently. Also, unless I'm misunderstanding, that means Kongregate went through the effort of adding a block for these games? Why not just leave it as is and rely on the browsers to block flash which would give users the ability to have these work arounds? What's with their selective laziness that they only seem to put in effort when it breaks the site further or adds meaningless extra content? I just don't get it

Hi,
You can enable flash, I'm using 32.00.465.
There is a huge adobe administration document https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_player_admin_guide/pdf/latest/flash_player_32_0_admin_guide.pdf
But for Iron Rage I made a quite long wiki page about it: https://ironrage.fandom.com/wiki/Enabling_Flash_after_12012021
an overview:
you have to create a config file called mms.cfg.
This has to be put in different places for different browsers, but works with Opera, Edge, Firefox Chrome, Chromium etc.
The mms.cfg has an allowlist for Iron Rage but with the same principles can be extended to other sites.
Hope this helps.

@whitehawk This is what I mentioned earlier in this thread (and in [another thread](https://www.kongregate.com/forums/7-technical-support/topics/1933696-please-remove-the-hard-supernova-redirect-on-flash-games-because-they-still-run-natively?page=1#posts-13561725)). Unfortunately while this does enable Flash, it won't work on this website because this website has stopped serving Flash games. The JS code that previously would inject the game link into the page now injects a stub that instructs you to install Supernova.
