Yeah, I did read both guides many times, I was just hoping to find a quicker way to do it :P

And yes, it will take a while, but you only have to beat it once. So take heart in that!

Oh well, thanks anyway.

..but this will take forever...ONE scorpion can take all the might of my party for 30 full seconds imagine 5 of them+giants+skeletons...and yes, I have every ability maxed out except Nova Blast.

Yes, it will take a while. Another thing I did was to creep up on the scorpions and let those mystic orbs attack them from a distance. If you do it right, they won't attack you as you pound them to death.

thanks for the help!
however, i'm still missing the secret on Nene. can someone give me a hint?

Yeah ftw like I'm the only one not doing it. If I would give a hint there of course would be someone else revealing it.

No I didn't, the link to my text guide is in the description of the video guide.

1/50 what?

1/50 chance double jump will fail. They went for intentionally making the game not work over making a game that's challenging on its own merits. Genuine class.

Anyway, I have secret medal 2, it's 1 and 3 that are eluding me. Any tips that won't quite count as spoilers?

The secret medals are all for simply getting to certain levels... If you don't have them, you cheated.

i think he was talking about that new Pico Day game, not IWBTFG.

Has anybody noticed that at Pico's Perpetual Party, when you've completed a mode, it doesn't say 'You are a winner' but 'You are a winrar'? I was like lol.

The context is all regarding IWBTFG... Anyways, not like it matters much.

Is this the total time? Would it not makes sense that lower times are better?

I finished in 26 seconds... So I have to go slower?

T-T-TRIPLE POST.

I see that it counts down now.

First of all, "I'm not the only one not doing it" is not a valid reason, and second, yes, you are.
Tips and hints are always welcome, but nobody said exactly what you had to do to get it, and there wouldn't be someone else revealing it..at least not in this thread.
If someone really can't figure it out, he can send a PM to someone who has it...

No I didn't, the link to my text guide is in the description of the video guide.

Yes, but some people might want the link here :P

Interesting, you have a different route through the descending spike ceiling than most. I believe the intended solution (and the one I use) is to drop down the hole and before you get down too far to air-jump back up to the next platform, going under the spikes. I never would have even thought to do it your way.

Also, I don't know if you said this in your written guide, but there are 20 waves of apples to dodge. So ...yeah.

Bah, I hope it doesn't get any medals...it's a pretty bad game...not much variety, boring and frustrating.

Yeah, not the greatest game.... Hope he fixes some of the bugs by the time he includes medals, though - which should be soon, according to him.

Sorry to bother you about that stupid "Oh Snap!" level again, but I really cannot manage to beat it.
No matter where I go scorpions will shoot me through obstacles, therefore rendering them useless as shields...this also means that I can't find a "safe spot" where I can let my party do the killing...I cannot go around the scorpions because if I move around too much, I will attract other enemies...and of course my mage dies during the first few seconds of the battle, so it gets even harder for me and my dragon...
Do you remember what you did, exactly, to beat that specific level?
(Btw I grinded for three more hours to get to level 45...)

Unfortunately, the last time I played it I beat it on hard, so now I'm at the very beginning of the game again.

All I can tell you is to concentrate on the giants, and try to keep away from the scorpions while using that method I mentioned above.

Wow... I didn't even think of that one, seems easier to me.
And about the apples... I'll update that.

Orangey blocks? What are you talking about?!

Nononono, you are not looking for a safe spot. For that level you need to KEEP MOVING. First off, run one or two laps around the perimeter of the arena. Running along the perimeter will ensure that almost all scorpion attacks will miss. By then your mage is probably dead, but no matter. You still get regen. Now keep doing hit and run: get a couple of hits off, once the scorpions start hitting you hard, go run a couple more laps while you regenerate heath. Sometimes you can get a position at the diagonal position to the scorpion. Since it can only face up, down, left or right, standing at the right spot will not cause it to move towards you but it will keep shooting and all its shots will miss. This gives you a temporary safe spot to kill all nearby skeletons and giants. However I don't have a consistent way to find this sweet spot either, and even if you are in it, sometimes the scorpion will just snap out of it.

It's not terribly difficult, I just did it at lvl 29. Once the numbers start thinning out, it gets easier and easier. Remember, just keep running.

Uh, you know, that "ceiling" the spikes were attached to. Calling them "orangey blocks" was incredibly vague. I must have been drunk or something.

You say you have to wait on the level with the 3 spikes that change directions between up and down (screen 6). You don't. The spikes aren't coded right. You can land on the far or near corners of the spikes when they are facing up and you won't die. Saves you considerable time for the speed run.

By the way, that walkthrough is awesome! Make sure you PM it to the creator of the game.

Oh ok, that's cool. Will become an update.

Well, I did what the description of the Zero Hero medal says, I PM'ed him that I got it. Didn't get a response however.
