hey, i found this really fun game, but i think its a java game. i would like to be able to download it to my computer to play offline. i know how to download and play flash .swf games to your computer, but i dont play many java games and dont know how (if its even possible) you would save and run it from your computer. does anyone know how this would be possible?

i want it so i can put it on my computer without an internet connection, btw

thanks

swf is flash, not java.
Open the game in your web browser, look at the source code (if you're in firefox, use Ctrl+U) look for an "embed" tag, get the link to the .swf file, save it to your hard disk. When you want to play it, just double click it and the browser should open it without an internet connection.
This method does not work with some games, as they check where they are being run from, and others require an internet connection.
