How To Reveal a Hidden Game in Flash 4 and 5 (Easter Egg)

By , About.com Guide

Easter Eggs are hidden program features, purposely included by the developers. They often reveal secret screens and messages. Here's how to reveal a hidden game in Flash 4 and 5.
Time Required: N/A

Here's How:

  1. Open Flash 4 or 5.
  2. Go to Help > About.
  3. Double click the Macromedia Logo.
  4. Click "Thanks" to make the logo bounce.
  5. Click "Team" to display the Car Jump game.
  6. To play the game, move the gray bar up and down to move the bicycle and attempt to jump over the cars.
  7. Don't crash into the cars or the mountain!

Tips:

  1. To access the game without the bouncing logo, Choose Help > About, double click the logo, then click "team."
  2. There is rumored to be a second easter egg inside the game after you jump 12 cars, but I did not have the patience (or coordination) to verify this.
  3. Follow the same steps for Flash 5, but you will get a different game.
