@tox found these movies with errors so we fixed them
Fixed! Made thumbnails, too.


It took me all day and Olskoo's assistance to understand how to do this:

download broken flash file from Newgrounds with ruffle extension

convert to .swf file

verify size of file contents

rename file format from .swf to .fla

drag file into Adobe CS5.5

export file as .swf

play flash animation as it should be played


I can now participate in this thread and actually save old Flash animations that would have otherwise been lost to time

something that has been picking at me for a while now


now I just need someone to send me a serial key for a CS5.5 suite so that in 29 days I can keep CS5.5 operational

or figure out a new way to do all the above with new programs

I wonder if CS5.5 is smart enough to detect that I am uninstalling it and then re-installing it per month

This is running more-or-less flawlessly - the only error I found was music not playing when I started a normal game.

ruffle should be turned off, it looks like it's working but when you play for a couple minutes map locations will disappear

Had a feeling that game probably still had issues.

Did a quick run through the tutorial - everything looks to be functioning properly.

Gave this some casual testing and ran across zero errors.

For the last time, no.

Just popping in to say the tutorial works fine, but outside of the tutorial, critter rng is currently busted on ruffle, so only black critters will spawn. On flash it's supposed to be a variety of critter colors that should spawn. So I don't think it should be swapped to ruffle just yet.

Turning Ruffle off again on there.

Played up to the introductory botfight and saw no bugs.

Game slowed to a crawl during world generation, and froze after world generation finished.

My laptop's using an i5-1135G7, so I'm suspecting a performance bottleneck.

Response to Ruffle Testing / Flash Preservation Crew 2023-12-21 15:32:47


Got most of the (in-game) trophies, and played for a while.


Only bug I could find was text rendering incorrectly in certain situations (chiefly the main menu/shop), and it didn't affect my experience.

I’m back and I found more games running great on ruffle.

The outline for the gems and lives are thin.

The black outline suddenly disappears when starting the game.

Same issue

Same issue

Same issue

Text is smaller during the tutorial

The outline for the pirate picture frame either absent or incredibly thin

The text for the tutorial small and almost cuts off at the bottom

A little faster than the launcher

The glow isn’t as bright as the launcher, but still bright enough

A little slower than the launcher, but far from unplayable

The texts are off center. Hopefully, future ruffle updates will fix this.

A little slower than launcher

The lit up torch causes the item slot to slightly move for some reason

Same issue, but with a candle

The camp fire is twitchy

The apposing piece is completely missing and its impossible to progress after using all of your pieces. Turn off ruffle for now.

Played up until the third fight, didn't experience any issues.

Text in the title screen rendered incorrectly - didn't experience any other issues otherwise.

Once the title screen text is fixed, [enable ruffle]


EDIT: Played it a bit further - seems there's some slowdown issues as well.
