Animations in "Interactive Games as Reactive Systems" use SWF format -- convert to GIF? #2

What's your suggestion?

SWF is, in 2021, pretty hard to use. Probably, the right format to use currently is a GIF, and it seems relatively easy to convert -- I just ran the first three files through https://cloudconvert.com/swf-to-gif and it seemed to work fine [edit] well, there is a little bit of visual artifacting at the bottom, but, at least they run? Obviously they could be recreated from scratch, but this seems like a quick fix that would improve things [/edit]:

Thanks for the report. I have changed these to mp4s for now. They will be in the next release. (Not pretty yet, but at least usable—no more SWF.)
