just out of curiosity, is there anything wrong with the Newgrounds player for games and media or are we looking to convert all games and media over to ruffle

Ideally we will no longer have to offer the NG Player, so the goal is 100% Ruffle if possible.

A script to switch everything over to Ruffle? At some point if it feels like Ruffle runs the majority of Flash content well, we'll do something on our end to switch it on in bulk, then turn it off for cases where it's found not to work well.

I can confirm two things 1. All the bugs in Karoshi: Suicide Salaryman are fixed 2. There's a new bug in Super Karoshi: The head hurting level doesn't work


This is awesome.

Played a full game (beating it in 9 days), experienced frequent and severe slowdown throughout.

None of the Robot Wants Series works on Ruffle

So much so that I actually had to play them on a XP Virtual Machine with Flash installed (Doesn't help that somehow actually runs some Flash games better than Ruffle does)

maybe some other people can help expand this list with me


I looking to create a de-code method for people in the future OR for you, the random person xx years from now that is trying to figure out what program a flash animation was created in so that you can de-code the program/animation and make it work again


this may require legacy programs such as:

ruffle, flash player swf to html, adobe flash player, adobe flash cs4 or cs3, adobe flash player 11, adobe flash player 32,, newgrounds player, VLC player


when you download a flash animation and then convert it to a .txt file then you have access to its encoding regardless of:

what program that it was created in

what the file extension was supposed to be or

how the creator did not create/import/export/name the file correctly


when you download the animation file, and convert it to a .txt file this is my current de-code list

(the first few lines if not the first few letters will likely show off one of these sets of letters)

CWS was created in an adobe flash studio program (apple)

FWS was created in adobe flash studio 3 or 4 (pc)

ÐÏࡱá was created in Adobe Flash / Macromedia Flash (pc)

(need to confirm) when it lists the name of the movie first thing then it was created in swift or swish (apple)


on that note, I am using a PC, so as far as I can see I cannot revive this Flash animation as it was created on an Apple animation program that was discontinued in 2016


i can tell that there is stuff/data there, its just broken currently because the author likely saved the file in their file explorer and then manually changed the extension
