Show HN: Play Flash Games on Mobile with Ruffle Virtual Keyboard

The Ruffle addon lets you run Flash games safely in your browser. Until now, there was no virtual keyboard that lets you play games on mobile. I made a simple userscript to display a virtual keyboard with arrow keys and spacebar. It uses focus, dispatchEvent and KeyboardEvent to communicate with the Ruffle container. You can download the userscript with Tampermonkey and try it out: https://github.com/ed253/ruffle-virtual-keyboard
