Anyone know? Or do you need some kind of a requirment to do that, or, what. :x
Please tell me.

The medal system is still in Beta. If you send Tom or Psychogoldfish a pm with a demo for your game, and you explain why you think your game is worthy, they may send you the medal API. I'm not quite sure how hard it is to implement though.

Do you really need a guide for this? Within a few seconds you should be able to understand the difficulty's differences and typing takes practice, rather than knowledge, to improve at.

If It's A Nice Day Today gets a guide, everything gets a guide.

Thank you so much :). Now I can be done with that game. Aiming for mediocre medal completion rules.

Glad to help.

In other news, can anyone verify that the All Achievements medal in Medieval Rampage 2 is working in a non-glitchy way? Some well respected people have it, and I don't want to put lots of time into it only to find out it's still glitchy and I'm not guaranteed to get it.

Also happened to me last night. asdf no longer worked on the last level...

according to the programmer, apparently the medals api is breaking his game so he pulled it from it, not my idea of solving the problem but yea :/

FYI.

Amen to that. I too am curious if it actually works, because that's one hell of a time sink if it doesn't.

I can. I got it some time ago though but it worked fine for me. Once I had all achievements I had to start a new campaign and play a few seconds on it before it was sent however. Was probably one of the most boring medals ever too.

It works. I just got it recently. (firefox-pop up mode) Also i have 96/100 on medieval rampage one, just gotta beat it again with the different armors. For the "Beat the game again for fun" achievement, I just had to replay the last level, not the whole game, although it took quite a few play throughs to get.

Wait...
Since when is Luis an admin?

Anyway, Sideways has become incredibly slow for me and always stops working on the first purple gate level only showing the start point. The map doesn't move with me, making the level impossible to complete.

Thanks for the info Luis. You did some great artwork on that game as usual.

I suppose. A single post in this thread that's about a line long would be perfect for that, nonetheless.

Also, these last two ranks are fucking impossible to climb past. I'm going to have another crack at it now, hopefully I'll achieve first place sometime soon.

TBFH I LOL'D SO HARD AT THAT GAME...

o curse!!!!, for me the game "Keyboard Mayhem" is really difficult, because I write in haste words in English and is difficult for me because I'm Italian!.
I do not think of winning many medals in this game!
excuse my english

I always get that bug when I try to fall down into the exit. It may have something to do with the fact that you fall so fast that the "camera" is unable to keep up and then you die without falling off screen. And then it fucks up. At least that's how I got it.

Oh, word from the developer is that you need to get under par in all three categories on the same go. So I have some work to do on level 3 to get my "every level under par" medal.

Woot! Got all of the mayhem medals.. :) But Sideways medals are not showing up at the game's page and the hold shift medal isn't just disabled, but not showing up on my 'all medals page' @ all..

I feel as if I fucking have to gain the final 130 points required to top the table for Keyboard Mayhem - I'm so fucking close that it's getting ridiculous now. By the end of tonight I know that I'm going to make them up and gain the first place.

Sorry if I'm going on about this a bit much.

Sorry for the overload of self-indulgent bullshit, but it seems that my efforts have finally paid off in this game.

aaaaawwww poop, the 250_blues medal in Starmageddon didn't register.
it's the only one i don't have!

also, how do you get high scores on Keyboard Mayhem?

After you finish the stage click 'Submit Score', write in your name in the box that pops up and click 'Sumit Score' again. They really should have fixed that typo before publishing the game.

how do you get the fall fast medal in sideways?
Also I just got the 50 deaths and 500 spins medals; so they're working now.

Confirmed. The 50 deaths and 500 spins are now available. Get them before the author rips them out.
Sideways: The new Shift4 (in both concept and bizarre medal issues)

Strange green, somebody posted above that they were removed, and they look to be removed from the page. I'm going to go try and get a few.

i didn't ask HOW to SUBMIT a score, i asked how to get a GOOD SCORE. the LEAST i'm getting is, like, 3600. it's a bit of my fault, shoulda been more clear.

This might be a case of medals available for earning but not counting towards points total. Like Hoverbot and FUI2.

Just saying since Luis is an admin and he says the medals are kaputz, they might just have taken them out of the points total.

Oh, yeah, I'm sorry to have made the mistake - I thought you'd realize.

I'd suggest going on Skitz difficulty seeing as you're going to end up typing more things down - keep in mind that on Easy especially you will end up with minuscule scores. Even if on every difficulty I found the shit exceptionally easy to complete in the first place my score for it was pretty low.

I believe that your initial score is based on each time a projectile hits the enemy and it's then multiplied by a number depending on different factors including the amount of time it took to hit it off the edge and perhaps the errors - I may be wrong though. Giving people tips on typing isn't really an easy thing to do. Essentially, just try to get accustomed to where each of the keys is from the neutral position so you can press down the moment you see the key coming up. A much harder, although relatively similar game is the full-sized 90s arcade game 'Typing of the Dead', which is just fucking amazing. I'd recommend it to anyone, it could get people used to this sort of shit.

shit, i can't even knock the bastard to the cliff on hard.
i give this medal game up. i suck at typing (or at least, typing fast).
thanks for the help anyway.
