Play Flash games on Triqui.com

What I introduced in the Ramblings about Flash game portals post went live today

I am talking about a game portal called Triqui, where you will find all MochiAds games. Well, not exactly “all”, but every game listed in their feeds.

Why did I made the millionth Flash games portal? Because I want to play a bit with this new toy, because I want to make an experiment about sponsoring games (why do portals sponsor a game?) and something more.

The entire design sucks a bit, but the entire project has only 63 (yes! sixtythree!!) php lines

I will add some new features soon (game rankings, comments, reviews…), then I’ll release the source code, so anyone can have its portal.

It’s completely automated: every day it reads from MochiAds feed, adds new games in a MySql database and it’s ready for a brand new feature Mochi guys will release in the next future.

Of course the goal is monetizing the portal… any idea?

    In response to mini chris’s comment, that is just wrong. They couldn’t even make their own graphics?
