Finally gotten the Immortal in Visible 3, and done everything right and better than this video here, but the Undetectable is still unachievable. What did I do? Avoided every posible detectable and non-detectable traps and obstacles in the gauntlet (Lasers, turrets, shock orbs, mines, rockets, fire hazards, bombs), became invisible every time and taken carefully of every safe spot (to charge the blue bar), but it is still with same icon. Any comments?

(sorry for the small picture)

I was going to give up on Paranormal Shark Activity, I got 4,960,000 Points (Or very close amount) and threw a bomb in the air it missed the shark and I died. I was very disappointed to say the least.
I decided to give it another go and I got the "Meet The Tiger Shark" medal. No shark appeared and every platform was the small one, so I got the 5mil points a 200 combo easily.

What I don't understand is how it happened, I gave up and swam to the very left of the screen when the shark was coming for death. I was back on the dock and entered a sequence on my keyboard, I don't remember what it was but it was 4-5 keys and ended in down.
When I did this the dock dropped I got the tiger shark medal, and so-on.

So when you die experiment with some keys it might pay out, or the game bugged out and what I assume I did, did nothing.


Insert useless information.

Just got the 200 streak medal; and that's only because it glitched on me again. Like vandal, the docks disappeared on me with no shark appearing - didn't press any keys other than the replay button.The only platforms that showed up were the short wooden ones. Now I'm wondering if I'll ever get the 30 death medal - which was what I originally was trying to get -if it doesn't stop glitching long enough to get eaten 30 times.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-01-06 00:27:16


It glitched on me too. The shark went off screen and the warning came up that it was going to attack from the left.... and that was how the rest of the game played out. I got bored after a while. Got 5 million but failed to get even a 100 streak because of minor things like having a tall block fall too far away from a slanted bouncy one.

It worked for me only recently, so I'm not sure if it's broken. You probably already know this, but not a single laser must be fired (regardless of whether it hits you) , not a turret bullet shot, not a shock orb dropping, etc. A single error will cost you the medal...

What does it take to get the speed run medal? I just worked my times down to a combined 5:49, and that wasn't enough. How close am I?

You can get the speedrun medal by beating the Gauntlet pretty fast, not the campaign mode. It takes time to figure out the perfect way to beat the Gauntlet, but after that the last few medals aren't that hard.

I was wrong, I never took care of a rocket behind me right at the end of the stage 4. So I can confirm that this medal is not broken.

Less than 10 minutes in Gauntlet Mode.

Anyone else having trouble with medals not showing up after you beat the game? The only thing that comes after I defeat the boss is the word "victory". No credits, no nothing. Just "victory".

Depends on what game you are talking about.
Also, Escape from Ice Mountain = terribly easy.

Yep, left that screen open for 10 minutes or so, and nothing happened. Kind of annoying because I beat it in 2:10. Oh well, guess we'll have to wait until it gets fixed.

There, under the text "victory" has two hidden buttons (the author must fix this), one to accept submit to the score and another to deny submit the score. I already beat this game in my 3rd time with a time under 2:20, but the medal for ending this game and the other 3 don't save anyway.

Just play the game all the way and you'll get it. It's really not a secret, per say.

And the game is not that hard to beat, or get the gold medal for it.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-01-06 18:21:59


The criteria for ALL Mechanical Ice Apocalypse medals, even the secret one ("Villain") is in the game itself. The only reason it is listed as a secret is to hide the image.

And personally, I've never even gotten silver legitimately, so I don't think it's that easy XD We based the medals on 3D-xelu's best times, not mine.

And to person who posted about the victory glitch: it actually does work. There are two buttons below the victory thing, but there was a bit of code in there (since removed) that stopped them from actually showing. But they are there. The leftmost one will give you the Showoff one, but either will give you Winrar, and Gold, Silver, and Bronze (if applicable). A fix has been submitted.

Not to boast, but I've gotten under 2:20 two times already without much difficulty - all legitimately.

Already selected the left button, but no medals, aside from watching the credits one, showed up, or registered on my profile.

Isn't it way more important he didn't get the winrar/bronze/silver/gold medals, than the fact that he forgot to mention the showoff medal actually worked for him?

The showoff medal appeared when I got up to the 4 minute mark. I'm assuming by your previous comments that the gold/silver/bronze and winwar medals only register after you select one of the buttons from the Victory screen. As of my last play beating the game in under 2:20, those 4 medals still do not work.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-01-06 19:40:07


Didn't bother to read all the text above, but I beat the game twice, clicking on the left button first, and then the right. Got the showoff medal the first time, and nothing the 2nd time. I got the story medal for waiting about 2 mins and then clicking back. Didn't see the story screen change at all.

ehh... I don't know why I got so confused over the Ninja medal with Showoff medal. Yeah, showoff worked, but not the other 4 medals.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-01-06 20:31:14


waynerz: The story screen never changes from the time you enter it. The medal refers to the narration, so you'll need speakers/headphones for that. Also, medals are coded so you're only supposed to see each one pop up once.

Also, I just tried again, and I was able to unlock Bronze (which is all I'm capable of, sadly). The other ones should work too. I don't really know why it's giving you a tough time particularly, but I'll put the word out...

Here's a random thought... does it display on the in-game achievements list that you have Gold and the rest?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-01-06 20:42:15


No, they are not unlocked. Neither are patience or winrar either, and I did both of those.

Oh, duh... just forgot, NG still has 1.1.5. With the victory screen broken as it is, even if you do click one of the buttons, you skip over the frame that awards you the medals. Wait for 1.1.6 to get approved and it'll work.
