Unfortuneatly no. But you can run past most of the enemies, so it's only a matter of a few seconds to get to where you left off.

Can't get it right.

yeah it's basically just figuring out the one spot that it actually works...it's a pain in the ass. it's where i keep failing at beating without dying haha. i've been practicing it but it seems to be a kind of luck thing.

That one took me forever, too. You just need to run off the ledge, jump just barely onto the bottom of the wall, wall jump back towards the ledge you were standing on and wall jump off towards that first wall and then do the rest of the wall jumps easily.

Haven't been following this thread, but maybe this'll help you guys finding the games that have medals in them:

http://www.newgrounds.com/game/gameswith medals

It's also linked from user's pages who have achieved medals. For example:

http://bob.newgrounds.com/stats/medals/

Click the "Medal Score" on any page like that and it'll take you to that page. Hope that helps.

are there any sound tracks that are easy to miss, or can I just go through the game and find them all?

Thanks a lot, that way it will be much easier to keep track of it.

I think I don't have to say this, but this means that we no longer have to put all the games with medals at the beginning of every thread. Maybe it's time for a new thread?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2009-04-23 18:29:03


No, the Collection page for Medal Games will be up soon.

In Red Moon, if you load up the game again let's say later on in the day, the medal list is cleared (that's because it's not stored on your hard drive, so it's not loaded from server-side, only data is sent when you achieve a medal.)
So, that means, it all has to be achieved in one gaming session, correct? Let's say I skip the cinematic (first one that awards a medal,) but I do not skip those following it.
Then I start a new game later, and don't skip the first cinematic. Will I be awarded the medal? I don't think so because I believe it's a one-session thing.
I guess that's good- less friggin' save hackers.

Thread/post? I think maybe you muddled your words there a little. I'm not going to tell you how to orchestrate threads like this, since they're essentially your baby (between all of you, who contribute to it regularly).

Re-inventing the wheel, when it comes to posting the games in the thread, seems to be a little overboard to me, now that you have a link you can point people to. Up to you guys, though - I'm not going to interfere (as I don't with other threads, unless one catches my attention as I'm reading through, which either breaks the rules, or is just made up of sheer stupidity).

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2009-04-23 18:44:32


Hey liljim, why don't you organize the list a little?

I.E. by order of gaining medals or by alphabetical order.

The current order is ugly. :(

It's ordered in terms of when submissions entered the portal. Submissions that were submitted earliest are the bottom of the list, up to the top of the list, which are entries that were submitted most recently. Eventually, this page will be re-done, but it's no big deal right now, since there are less than a dozen entries there.

When you do end up redoing it, i'd love the ability to see how many medals you have in a certain game when the mouse hovers over the icon. Or maybe something to just tell me which games I have 100% medals in already, instead of futzing through them all to see

I was just saying (to everyone in this thread, especially Zerok, the OP) that maybe it would be a good idea to lock this thread and create a better one.

We have already talked about that before, especially because the first post could link to the Games with medals collection, and also to the FAQ and walkthroughs made by Wylo. That way people would no longer ask questions such as "what games have medals?", though there haven't been any of those lately, I think.

I addressed the idea back on page 14 or thereabout and with the help of you guys drafted up a model for how the BBS medals discussion would be run. I'll implement that as soon as medal games start rolling in consistently.

Basically it breaks down into two threads and a blog area:

Main Discussion Thread in General. Posts asking "HOW DO I GET ____" will not be tolerated (deleted, likely). There will be a big, organized disclaimer at head of that topic. Any other discussion is permitted, including basic strategy discussion...

Collections of Tips and Walkthroughs Thread in wi/Ht.

THIS thread will always be locked. I'd only open it when I'm adding to it. It's not possible to nicely organize everything, so a blog will be created to index the wi/ht thread contents. The actual content will be generated by myself and whoever wants to contribute anything comprehensive.

Did you try hitting ctrl +F5 to refresh the screen. I think i may know what you are talking about. If you are playing thing thing 3 i think you half to die before your medal gets accounted for, though i am not 100% sure i think i am correct.

Bug in Red Moon, you can get the "collect all orbs" medal without actually collecting all the orbs. I received the medal while trying numerous times near the end of the game to get all the medals in one level, when suddenly it just gave it to me. Anyone else experience this?

yeah i got it on level 17 or whatever haha. there's a counter around 100 for most people(animetal said 350 for him) so i guess it's different for everybody

Secret Medals

When it comes to SECRET MEDALS, I'll ask you to be vague at best. If an author makes a medal secret, they've done so for a reason. So do not discuss SECRET MEDALS to any specific extent.

Double post.

I think it actually varies.

Some users have tried their absolute best to get all the orbs and to get that medal and have failed, while others haven't even tried and got it by accident.

My guess is you died a TON and kept getting the orbs whenever you respawned.

I also think the number of orbs required isn't in stone, someone said earlier it takes around 100 orbs to get the medal, but I just got the medal and it took around 350 orbs.

This needs to be investigated further.

Also any users who get the medal "Introduction" after the "Don't skip em" medal is clearly cheating, as the introduction movie, along with all the other cut scenes, are required to get the Don't skip em medal.

Thought i'd point that out, as Josh probably wants to catch as many cheaters and/or hackers as possible.

As I said my earlier post, it will be damn near impossible to hack this. the SOL file is just a session keeper, ergo- medals aren't saved locally which is why the medals menu is blank when you go back into the game and all those questions I had and bla bla whatever else I typed in that last post I don't feel like typing it all again cut myself cooking friggit.

Huh, well that explains why I got the medal BEFORE I got all the orbs. The medal description says that I have to get all the orbs in the game to get it.

I kept on dying and collecting orbs over and over untill I passed the level and thats how it happened I guess.

Well now I dont have to play the game again to get the orbs I missed heh heh

Don't know whats what? GOOGLE IT!!!

Also thanks goes to whoever made this sig for me awile back.

It reads our IP's, Yeah? So If I close the game after beating it and collecting around 200 Orbs, Does that mean when I re-open it at a later date it will be on 200? Or will it start at Zero and I need to leave the game open? Because, I beat the game first time, But wouldn't have got 300+ Orbs.

games are saved to your computer, not by IP, but this game doesn't even save your progress, to my knowledge (except maybe the music and concept art)
