No stubs or errors are reported, except for Encountered stub: AVM2 flash.display.MovieClip.goto() with SWF 9 movie on Pwong 1

I think this needs BitmapData.Draw with filters.

Howdy! I wanted to offer my recollection of the game to this, too. This is the swf file:

Pwong-2.zip

Then the error code:

ERROR core/src/avm2/events.rs:428 Error dispatching event EventObject(EventObject { type: "enterFrame", class: flash.events::Event, ptr: 0x228ede8 }) to handler FunctionObject(FunctionObject { ptr: 0x1967688, name: Ok("Pwong2/updateScore()") }) : TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. (accessing field: currentFrame)

The graphics the issue opener is mentioning in particular are the missing paddles, which is probably the most critical. If you click off of the game, it pauses for you in the original, whereas the ruffle version does not. After a level is completed, a bot would take over the players paddle and continue playing against the cpu. This also doesn't occur in the original, though it is far less critical.

Original in Flash:

On Kongregate with Ruffle:

Original pause in Flash:

Original postgame in Flash (note the motion blurred paddle):

On Kongregate with Ruffle:

You'll also notice in the final image, the score and data is missing.

Final note, playing again after completing a level on Kongregate completely breaks. No balls to paddle, game doesn't start.

#21672 doesn't seem to improve this.
