Okay so am playng hard games but i started to play realm of the mad god its internet game and am playng with 2 of my friend while talking on skype i was playng bf4 and i had 30 cpu usage skyrim 15-20 but in this game 70 HOW? am using i5 3350p
 
What are the rest of your specs?

Also, multiplayer BF4 should be using way more than 30% of your CPU, most large multiplayer games become CPU limited especially in larger matches as there is so much going on, but the GPU load has remained the same because your field of view is the same. I also don't think your skyrim number is right either, given that my PII 955 is the limiting factor in skyrim for me, unless you have settings turned way down or checked while you were in a tiny house or something that seems wrong as well.

As for the game in question, flash doesn't have much GPU acceleration support so flash games require a lot of work to be done by the CPU, the graphics may not be intense but flash is not an efficient language and is very bloated, turned the first starcraft game into a flash game you would probably still run into hardware restrictions simply because flash is bad, this is why more and more places have been moving away from flash for videos as there are better options out there, and there are better options being worked on for interactive web games so that we can finally kill off flash and all its bloat and security issues.
 

You do know that graphics does not equal cpu usage right. In the past almost all games took as much cpu power as they could get(in fact older games will take a full core on a multi core system to this day).

To this point even a super Nintendo emulator took a HUGE amount of power(all that to emulate a ~22mhz system) on older systems.

Program coding has more to do with its cpu usage than how graphically intense it is. With such powerful hardware, designers seem to case less about optimizing code than they once did.
