About

Flashback is an homage to drawing tools of the 90s! This completely free (FOSS) suite of tools enables the creation of rich web-optimized content. Flashback Studio is centered around an intuitive timeline, enabling stop-motion and tween-based animations that can be combined with scripts to produce games, movies, websites, and more!

All projects created with Flashback Studio may be exported to the web in a format that is compatible with modern browsers.

NOTE: Flashback is an extremely "early access" project. Many features are missing, and there are many bugs!

Which is why we'd love to invite users and developers alike to join our community. Be a part of this exciting early-access project.
