Neopets, the virtual pet website launched in 1999, is promising a “new era” with an improved website and fixed Flash games. They will launch a new unified website on July 20th to fix issues and bring back over 50 Flash games using the Ruffle emulator starting July 25th. A new Neopets mobile game called World of Neopets is planned for next year. The team is moving away from crypto and NFTs to focus on core gaming. After being acquired by a management buyout, the independent Neopets team now has the resources to make meaningful changes and pursue a “Neopian renaissance.” They plan regular updates, AMAs and an ambassador program in the coming months.
Is there a word for the opposite of enshitification?
I don’t use neopets anymore but I have been following the neopets saga. I will believe it when I see it, they promised this with the site redesign back when flash died, and most of the original games are still not playable years later.

From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!
