If google bot found any text on flash based website then it consider only text. Google bot can't recognize image or any flash.

A long time ago, google was developing technology to crawl and index flash. I doubt they are still working with it since the demise of flash.

To ensure that Google can crawl your site, include a few HTML links in your footer. That way the search engine spider can follow those links to the other pages on your site.
