Unfortunately, achievements in Fade are still broken. The colors started working via a nightly Ruffle update from days, if not a week or two


Obversity works now.


Will check some other games within an hour.

Did a quick check of a small handful of games that could be affected by the recent changes. No new progress on any.

Thanks Tom! I played both Tic Tac Toe games on my mobile. They worked ok but were slow, definitely slower than browser, especially when there was lots of moving graphics. Again I'm sure that's something that will improve with future Ruffle updates. Otherwise they were playable and functional. I'm using an Android mobile if that's relevant.


No doubt I'll drop in here again from time to time, interested to see how this all progresses :D

Quick testing log: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/636847


Main menu loaded fine, but the game temporarily froze upon clicking "Tutorial Missions".


The game itself is effectively unplayable, as the screen is massively offset to the top-left.


ThrowingUp123 seems sus.


Where did I put my Matthew McChan detector?


Response to Ruffle Testing / Flash Preservation Crew 2023-07-17 07:57:36


Hey here's my take on a few more games. Again apologies if any have already been mentioned


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/645723 Dash Dash

It kinda works but is very slow and lags. I guess it is playable, but it's not good


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/495413 Amateur Surgeon

Just a black screen and clicking it links to Adult Swim Games. Maybe this is a problem with Adult Swim games?


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/529334 Sushi Cat

It loads absolutely fine and everything seems good until you drop the cat at which point is becomes unbearably slow. I guess it is playable, it's only when the cat is rolling down collecting the sushi but considering that is the actually gameplay it ruins the fun.


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/541771 Sushi Cat The Honeymoon

Exact same as Sushi Cat.


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/563966 Sushi Cat 2

Unplayable. Loads up normally, cut scene plays totally fine, but when you click on a level it goes black, nothing more.


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/435510 Last Touchdown

Loads, plays cut scene normally but when it comes to gameplay the character is just running in place with nothing happening, completely unplayable


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/616894 Call of 'Doody'

Pleased to say totally fine :D


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/493626 A Bad Taste of Pico

All good!


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/343788 Air Hockey Ikoncity

Also all good!


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/553791 Achievement Unlocked 2

Fine and playable for the most part, but some of the medals and achievements don't work, which considering completing these tasks is the whole purpose means the game can't be finished. Specifically, there's an achievement that requires right clicking, but that's not recognised by the game. Also there are achievements that require the game to be opened in another window but again this is not recognised by the game. Otherwise is plays and functions ok.


https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/596370 Achievement Unlocked 3

Works, but painfully slow and prone to lagging.


Hope this helps

WAIT if all games and Movies get Ruffled does that mean NG Player will have to shut down soon?


also Windows BE need to have ruffle

NG Player was a temporary solution so the better Ruffle gets, the closer we will get to NG Player being discontinued.

I should have guessed it the moment I saw the update (the canvas thing), but one game I've been testing for ages is now fully working:

/format/flash?emulate=flash

gotta click the text pixels for the buttons to work, the crosshair flickering can be annoying (they're visible though), but it finally works.


still gotta run a mass test though.

Tower of Greed works mostly fine - main problem I spotted was that trophies weren't saved upon exiting the tower.



Phit also works mostly fine - the text is the only thing suffering errors, with active buttons having their text replaced with the word "test".



Ninja Painter is also working gameplay-wise, with its only major error the level select's record text reading "99999" rather than what the player's highest score is.

Another Silen Games game with a minor issue - achievement text reads "Complete Black Zone" instead of what it should read.



Continuing the theme of "text-based errors", Gap Monsters fails to display text in the sidebar, meaning the player receives no in-game hints/flavour text.



Icy Gifts 2 has a couple minor issues I noticed:


  • The text displayed when hovering over a button linking to another game displays "Play Prizma Puzzle Challenges" regardless of what game is linked.
  • Small floes and mines have a square-ish blur around them - not sure if intentional or not, but I'm suspecting it isn't


Tower of Heaven slowed to a crawl upon startup and upon pressing "New Game".


Couldn't get any further, due to the game borderline freezing Firefox.



Pause Ahead had a similar issue - its technically playable, but slow as molasses.


works
