This. You could also just make your own GUI that pulls down the client and run the patched client. Is it an Adobe AIR? I guess you mean for the Classic Client (or whatever they're calling it) not the new Unity client.
It's probably coded in Unity, which will be compiled to WASM, which is a PITA to reverse but not impossible. Same thing as Hotel Hideaway, which I presume was their testing grounds.
It might be they're going to buy out that game's company if they don't own that game. That or they built it as part of a contract. We can't really say. Would be nice to see Sulake make more games though. Habbo will one day shut down. I'm not saying in the coming year, but it will happen eventually.
He expects to see them running in 10 years? Unless they switch to HTML5 soon they might start seeing their client stop working. Some of the major browsers are dropping Flash and we're not talking in 2 years, we're talking this and next year, starting with Firefox. Flash is a security nightmare...
You would of thought they would of tested their new system with actual mods before going through with firing everyone. Like try a day without mods, then a week. See the effects, then a month. You don't sack them all only to come crawling back to them. Or turn them part time if anything?
There is no other moogly, other moogly's are dead to me. I write production code in Python 3 for a legacy server that forced me to run it on Python 2, thankfully CherryPy doesn't care and just works (TM) it's stood every challenge I've given it, great framework.
