[Unresolved] Problem with mouse recognition in game window

Please report any and all mistakes in my game here. Does something not work properly? Did I spell something wrong? Anything like that.

Flash can be finicky.

It's best never to mess with it!

Alright guys, I took your suggestions and here's what I came up with:

Alright guys, I messed with the zoom levels for a little bit (I am using a Google Chrome browser) and as mentioned, the button is not clickable at 250%. The same is true for me when I am at 300%. Strangely enough, the button does work again if you go into 400 or 500%. Then I tried changing the screen resolution, which, I have to go all the way down to either 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600 to get the game to work properly. Either way, the game still looked retarded because I had two inches cut off my monitor on both sides. Then, reverting back to my standard screen resolution, I opened up my Internet Explorer browser to see if the problem would persist, and... I had a "This webpage is not available" window mysteriously covering part of my screen and the more I zoomed in the bigger it got. So I said the heck with that and downloaded the Firefox browser. After needing to also install a Flash plugin for the browser, I was able to get the game to run just fine in Firefox no matter what zoom level I was in. So I guess I'm using Firefox now for this game because it seems as if it's a browser-specific issue. My flash players are up to date (not sure about the mouse and flash drivers, don't know how to check for that or if I even need to.) Bella, having other windows or programs open at the same time is not interfering, as I can open my Chrome browser upon startup, jump into the game, and the problem will crop up.
If I'm not playing Never Ending Level Game, it might be because I'm watching NASCAR.

I used to use firefox exclusively.... but when my computer died and sharing Tee's computer firefox is messed up on ir for some reason. So I been using Windows 10's Edge

But when I was actively working on the game I only played and tested on Firefox.

I see, Firefox seems like the way to go then. Haven't had any issues since I've started using it.

I'm a mac user. Safari (the jabberwocky) has no changing cursor for me. Chrome, which I use almost always does. Zoomed in on chrome 250%, cursor changed, button worked.

That then begs the question.
What version of flash is everyone using?

If you go to levelgame.net, and then right click on the game, the very buttom option on the right click menu should say something like "About Adobe Flash Player XX.X.X.XXX..."

I find it very strange that Chrome 250% zoom works on Sizz's mac, and my Windows Chrome 250% zoom.
I wonder if Windows and Mac have a difference in their flash versions (Or how they handle flash) to cause that.

Could also be to do with version of Chrome perhaps. My Chrome isn't up to date because I haven't updated my OS - 10.7.5 (Lion), literally from 2011, so updates of chrome aren't supported on my computer.

Version of Chrome: 49.0.2623.112
Flash: 21.0.0.216 (maybe just an update behind what it should be)

Perhaps!
The oldest browser I tried, IE11, also worked on 150% zoom, so it very well could be these newer browsers. Either way, I think it's sad to say it isn't Clarence's fault xp

Everything is Clarence's fault. Including global warming and the glass ceiling.

The glass ceiling is definitely on Clarence.
