Adobe has released Flash Player 14 and AIR 14 Runtime and SDK, updates to two of its most popular web add-ons in the production of online content and web apps. In addition to the usual bug fixes, this version brings new features.

Developments are aimed primarily at developers and include an anisotropic filtering tool, which is basically a method to improve the quality of the texture of images. It also includes a new, advanced profile to create objects in Context3D.

In addition, Adobe has added support for Intel X86 Android and the Gamepad function for Adobe AIR. The latter lets developers enable second screen functions on Android devices for flash browser games, so you could be playing a game on your PC, and interact with it in real time using your Android phone or tablet.

If you want to try AIR Gamepad, there are already two games that incorporate the system: ModelViewer and HungryHero.
