Hi,

Where do I get more games than the games on Mochigames ? I am not sure why, but it seems like the mochi games are of low quality - maybe it's because of the ads that developers focus on quantity rather than the quality.

Do you have some other resources I could use? For mockers, my website is not english speaking and there is not any website in my language based on PAS.

well, if you are in flash gamedev industry for at least a year, you know that almost all flash games are not high-end games because of the short development time (weeks, sometime few months). Developers just can't afford more time for a single game because the main and almost the only monetization schemes currently available are ingame ads and sponsorship. So average budget for a game is less than $5000.

Fortunately it seems things are changing a little bit: some devs are starting to switch to the micro-transaction monetization scheme, and to do that they have to increase the quality of their games drastically.

Back to your question:
As far as I know, Mochimedia is the largest source of flash games (defacto they are the main provider of ingame ads), but you can search for good games at indie and flash game devs' forums.
