This game looks okay, but the gameplay and level design is... Ouch.

Yeah, unfortunately Ruffle not handling the music the same as Flash player, I had a few tries at fixing it, but no luck. Hopefully I can find a fix, I will try some more, seen as people like the game LOL.
Good Game! 👍
Nice atmosphere and music, engaging mechanics.
I see this runs in Ruffle. I'm curious - did you develop using Flash? If so, did you use ActionScript 2 or 3? I didn't think anyone was still doing flash development so it's very cool to see this.

Hi, This one was made in 2008, Flash CS6 i think...I love AS2, it let's you code cowboy style, giving you the ability to make a game prototype in a couple of hours. For this one I used a dynamic physics open source engine called Flade. I have tried many times to move to AS3 but found it hard work to do even the simplest things :) Since discovering Newgrounds and Ruffle, I have been re-inspired to finish many of the projects that I moth balled when flash died and mobile gaming took over. I have been working in Unity for many years now, and find it nearly impossible as an indie dev to finish even the smallest projects, where as I had completed probably a hundred flash project in the same space of time...I suggest you mess around with it, this game got started when I loaded up an example that came with Flade.
