The Amazing Spider-Man Online Movie Game: Missing letters in some text fields

[n0samu]

Describe the bug

In The Amazing Spider-Man Online Movie Game, letters are missing from some text fields:

Due to CORS and ExternalInterface errors, you'll need to test the game in the Ruffle desktop app:
ruffle https://media.numuki.com/spider-man/games/online-movie-game/main.swf --dummy-external-interface

Expected behavior

Text fields should not be missing letters.

Main SWF URL: https://media.numuki.com/spider-man/games/online-movie-game/main.swf
This is a multiasset game, so downloading the main SWF is not enough to run it locally. If you want to inspect the files, I recommend using Flashpoint.

Additional information

The game uses a separate fontLib.swf file to store the complete copies of its fonts. Most of the buttons and text fields with this problem are stored in the shellAssets.swf file. This file has incomplete copies of the required fonts with only enough characters to display the text fields' default/initial text. The fontLib.swf file gives custom names to the fonts: AKZIGBEB, AKZIGBER, etc. The text seen in the game is loaded via the config.xml (or config.preloader.php in the Flashpoint version). The font is set via CSS. For example, here's the PLAY NOW button:
<play style="tall_btn" ><![CDATA[PLAY NOW]]></play>
And later in the XML, here's the applicable CSS:
.tall_btn {font-family:AKZIGBEM;color:#bcbcbc;font-size:22px;}
So I think this needs CSS support in AVM2.

Unfortunately that no longer works as the website shows "Forbidden Visit www . NuMuKi . com to play this game" page.

Edit: you need to set Referrer URL to https://www.numuki.com/game/spider-man-online-movie-game/
