The achievements work. The medals... don't. That is, I got to sector 5 and didn't get the medal.

Ah I see, you need to die in order to get the medal. Sorry, never mind.

That Shapes game collab wasn't THAT difficult...

For the block shooter you just have to learn exactly how many bullets it takes to destroy each enemy type.

For Drug Lord, you can't hold more than ~30 grams at a time, because the algorithm appears to have no minimum cap. Thus if you buy more than that, you will get caught in one day.

Puzzle has been solved already here.

And the last one just takes some TouHou skillz. (ie: move slowly in one direction, rinse/repeat.)

Finally got the 'Bloody Mess' medal after trying for the fifth time (done it on Google Chrome). I don't know why but whenever I try to play medal games in Firefox it's not connecting me to the Newgrounds API anymore. It was fine a couple of days ago.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2010-12-21 19:49:57


Shapes game is hard. The drug one seems totally random: I got caught in 2 days with 3 grams one time, but another time I went 8 days without getting caught with 16. I got the number in the top-right corner on the shooter down to 0, which I assumed referred to the HP of the enemy, but my score didn't reach 900 and the enemy didn't die. And for the stationary defense shooter (assuming it is in fact stationary), there's just too many coming from too many different angles to handle them all efficiently. I may just cut my losses here and leave this one alone before I spend oodles and oodles of time on it.

There is seriously something wrong with the drug game in the Simple Game Shapes Collab. I can hold onto 5 grams for a ton of days, but when I had 2 grams I got caught the next day. Do they seriously expect me to buy and sell in the exact same day?

That's the time bonus, as it says before the game starts, for a fraction of a second. I think I'm gonna have to leave this game alone for the time being as well; I thought the drug game would be easy, but if the programmer can't even make it so you can make it one freaking day without getting caught, then I don't want to waste my time on a game that was poorly constructed.

Really that easy huh? How many points did you get to earn the medal in the last game? I got 1520 but I guess it's possible to score higher. Also, how on earth did you score 750 points in the block shooter? I get what you're saying, but even then it's really hard to even get 200 points. Maybe I should try a bit harder, well done anyway. ;)

Seems to be luck based. I bought 90 grams on the last second of a day, and I got caught as soon as it turned to the next day. Other times I had a a day or two with almost the same amount.

Wait, you got 1520 points and still didn't get the medal? This is me deciding not to waste my time. I also call shenanigans on the 750 kills medal. Those two shall forever remain ungotten by me, unless they are seriously tweaked. Though I did hit 50,000 in the cocaine game, so I know that one's possible.

I think I will write a guide on that Simple Shapes Game collab. But let me tell you that I dislike it pretty bad.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2010-12-22 05:45:41


According to the description there's 10 hidden achievements. Don't know if it's medals or achievements in the game.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2010-12-22 06:15:11


The guide for Simple Shapes is done. I don't think it's helpful for anybody here but for the ones that haven't read what's here it may give them a medal or two.

Your saying that for the Space Shooter you need 1000 points to get the medal. Make that at least 2500, since you'll always end with at least 1000 points.
Also, I think the drug dealing game is random too, but it's not hard. Several times I managed to get to 20000 points pretty quickly, without ever buying more than 5 grams.

Better not say any points at all then. I will try and figure that out.

Well, after playing that mini-game for like 3-4 hours straight, I finally got the medal. For the first half, you need to be extremely close to the enemy so you start the 2nd half with around 1500 bonus points left. After that you want to hit him with at least 2 bullets whenever you can, because you need to finish the game with at least 500 bonus points. If you guys are crazy enough to go for this medal, keep in mind that you can't get hit the entire game, and you have to finish with >500 points, so you end up with 2500 points or more. My best after a while was 2465, so that's enough evidence you actually need to get 2500.

Good luck =/

...sigh. I really don't want to do this one.

click toilet. grab pillow. get wrench from garage.

Leave house, go left. use pillow, have pillow fight. knock the guy down onto the bed twice, dresser, basket, lamp for a medal.

Go right. At the school, give they guy the wrench to fix his skateboard with. pick up lube.

Go into the school. Open the blue locker to get the bag. click on bag in selection part. Go left and then forward and open door. give teacher lube. Fight the boss.

Leave school. Go left. Give bag of crap to pervert to get ID. go to liquor store to pick up beer. return to school.

In the school, give the beer to the guy in the center right room. Now, go find the idiot jock. Go to the house that you had the pillow fight in and get the homework under the bed. Give it to the jock. Then go buy an energy drink at the liquor store and give it to the jock. Open the door the jock was standing in front of and fight the boss.

Starlight Dreams might be a bit old by now, but does anyone remember how to get 'monster hunt'? Do you just need to kill one of each type of monster? How many types are there in total? I see the bird in the cloud stage, the tree (and the firey thing?) in the mushroom stage, and they icy hedgehog in the snow stage.

I wanna clear the last medal to finish off the game, would appreciate a little help...

Yeah, you have to kill one of each. I believe there are 5 altogether, with the hardest being the mecha polar bear in the ice-cream top level. The only way to kill it i believe is using the ultra star - or maybe the new jet pack?

Just to clarify, the mecha polar bear only appears in icecream top on hard and ultra. I believe it begins to show up after you make 200o in hard mode in that level, points in that level on hard, and it appears any time in ultra difficulty.
