------------ A note from developer, August 28th, 2022 --------------------

I just visited NG years later to announce Madville+ on Steam, and saw that original Madville can not be played by Newgrounds player. This is NOT something I did or planned, as some commenters are ignorantly claiming. According to this ridiculous idea: I should have powers to see the future, know that flash player will be dead and years later NG will write its own replacement, and years before aaaall that, I implement some code that can somehow talk with this new technology and stop it from working. How is that even possible? And greed? For what purpose? To make my own game, that I worked on for months, unplayable? Which had already become unplayable when flash died?!


TL;DR: I don't know why the game is not working here. I stopped checking flash sites years ago, when flash died. I don't know how NG player works. MY BEST GUESS is this: Flash games back then, had lot of 3rd party tools to provide site owners & developers stats & other services. Some of those services, had mechanisms to ensure site-specific features work correctly, or to protect site-owners licenses / interests.. and perhaps NG player is not playing well with those long gone services, and that popping message might be one of them, failing in a never-imagined scenario. This is no one's fault. No one could have predicted this.


The game is still free and playable, as every other flash game: You can download it with flashpoint, which archives most of flash games that existed. It's just NG player can't play this one, it's unfortunate but these things happen. It's just technology and nature of things.


Thanks for reading.


Update: Tom Fulp has kindly written a response about this. Hopefully when Ruffle is mature enough, it will be able to adress this kind of errors and open the game as it was before: https://twitter.com/TomFulp/status/1564266409533865984

You know, the world needs to be saved. Somehow it is always in danger. And there is always a hero that you can count on at times like this. A hero that you can look up to. But sometimes, there comes a hero, a bit different and unorthodox in his ways. This is the story of that hero. Relive the memory of a mad guy who saved the world and ended up in an asylum.


Unlock different weapons, pickup random effects, kill swarms of enemies and different bosses, bring your own apocalypse on the aliens.

This game is great, the enemies look very crazy and that gives it a unique touch, the weapons are very cool and some were even very powerful

In my opinion it is a masterpiece
10/10

Bruh.

You blocked this from working externally... so now it won't be preserved by NG's external player?

That is absolute greed and disgustingness.

re: author:

The error literally says:

"UNAUTHORIZED GAME! tHIS SITE BLOCKED OUTGOING LINKS IN THIS GAME... ETC. and then tells you to visit gamedistribution.com"

So yes. You blocked this from working externally. And you did so by allowing this site locking to be part of your game's engine.

Even if that wasn't your explicit intent, you still did it.

Hello, dev here. This is ridiculous and false. I wrote an answer to this absurd claim, you can read it in the description now.

edit: You didn't even read or understand what I wrote, did you? Do you send this kind of messages to website owners when google shows you a message when you have no connection, too?

Also here is Tom Fulp's message about this, owner of Newgrounds, confirming what I wrote above:
https://twitter.com/TomFulp/status/1564266409533865984

The game is blocked... they say this is an unauthorized game because links are blocked by this site.

UmutDervis responds:

Hello, dev here. I have no idea why the game is not working with NG player. I wrote my best guess on why that might be happening, in game's description. Thanks..
