FUCK!I just wasted more than one hour of boring grinding...I had like 17 million credits when I decided to unlock the boss world for the lulz, obviously saving the game before doing so..but the goddamn autosave feature was on, so now I don't have any money left and I'm stuck with this useless boss world.

Nah, you are right, hope it gets fixed soon.

Extreme Gardening is going to get really hard. Getting all silver medals shouldn't take that long, but getting all the gold ones... wow.

I guess you could always trace the shape on tracing paper, then try to sort of make your mouse follow the outline shape...

Okay, what the hell.
I made it to the last boss, with the best weapon upgrade, best ship (pseudo-epic), with every defensive and offensive upgrade equipped, fully stocked with all kinds of items, and yet, evem if I managed to keep the time frozen for at least 5 consecutive minutes while blasting him at point-blank range his armor didn't move one tiny bit.
Whaaaaa?

Maybe someone leaked the medal API onto somewhere like rapidshare and this guy just tested it out on his game. Hope not!

Been there, done that - not on this game, but on many others - making stupid mistakes.

I haven't been able to play as much as would like, so I still have a long way to grind to get the stuff I need to go up against Genu.

You didn't really time it, did you? ;)
5 full minutes should be able to give it a dent. The annoying thing about this game is the lack of actual stats to compare between weapons/items. I went max guardian of mana, which *might* have been more powerful than double fire blue lasers. I don't know this for sure though, although this belief had led me to ditch the infinite-lock weapon build advocated by chris-marks et al.

"darkness energy charge" gives you ~150 energy per charge, but you will not be able to trigger any other skills for a short amt of time. Thus you can do summon guardian - darkness charge - summon guardian - darkness charge etc. indefinitely.

l kept two savegames at all times, so l wouldn't have to worry about an auto-save causing problems with one of them.

Also, l see the medals on that hedge clipping game, but l just don't know if l care about it enough to do anything with it. Level 13 is ridiculous, and l can't imagine them getting any better in the last two.

Know what? l'm going to go on record as saying getting all gold in hedge-clipper extreme is impossible. Between how quickly you need to do it, and how unresponsive the controls are, l seriously think it is an impossible task. l'll take my 260/360 and walk.

Hmm, I wonder how it's even possible to finish Wild River in less than 50 seconds..there is probably only one way to do it...
And that other game is pretty frustrating, but not impossible.
Also, about Enigmata, I'm pretty sure that it was more or less 5 minutes..maybe he is invulnerable to frontal damage (or maybe the screen messed up and didn't show his HP correctly)..
I'll try Mana Guardian+DEC, but that means even more grinding...sigh.

Hm, 50 secs sounds somewhat impossible, but 100 secs is easy enough

I think it would be gay for it to be immune to some types of dmg the game saying so. I have been spamming psion wave along with mana guardian though, so maybe only the wave hurt him... in any case the HP drops too slowly to tell.

There are lots of ways to beat it I guess. I didn't use the mana guardian, I just used the best missle (using the infinite missle thing), and the yellow vector (or whatever it's called). I'm sure it didn't take much longer than 5 minutes. I did buy an elite tier ship because you can get it pretty quickly when replaying lvl 24 and using the gold generator. Just try different things and I'm sure something will work.

Todays games are fun and not very hard. For Extreme Gardening, I still need one silver medal. I'm really interested in how matt-likes-swords got all gold medals. Well done sir!

wild river is cake. eye ("eye" is safe from Kevin Bacon, lol) got all medals in the first try. 99 secs, close, no?
now for Tremerz, need that Ladies man medal, as well as the one to save Mindy and save them all. eye will try later.

Well, there really isn't much to the game. Aside from 100% being insanely difficult, it's all very straightforward, with very little strategy involved. What were you hoping to see in the guide?

And I am completely blown away that someone got all golds, let alone this soon after the game got medals. I'm going to contact Matt and ask him what he did, so I can add that to the guide.

Those new medal games are pretty easy. Tremerz took a bit of time to figure out, but once l did it was pretty quick to get all the medals. l like this trend.

Also, Matt says he got all gold by sticking paper to his monitor and tracing the shapes. So l'll update the guide to say so. l doubt l'll go after that medal personally though.

I was looking around for tracing paper for extreme gardening but it turns out normal paper works just fine (turn up monitor brightness if needed). They even cut you some slack: for 94% on the last level I got a gold.

Are you playing the same game as me? I got 99% on the last level without paper and still got a Silver.

My bad: It was the 2nd last level. The last level was relatively easy: I had 100% on my first try w/o paper.
