Did not work. Plenty of bots died from sentry fire, but not from my gun. Still no medal.

Meddels!
It becomes quite luck-based past 40 because there's only one gap. How irritating, considering you can't even run from one end to the other before the place closes up.

Well, apparently the game is
stolen, so I don't think it would be a smart move to keep it on the site. And yes, past 40 you need to get lucky 10 times to get the last medal.

Why is it stolen? How can you even steal a Flash game that was not made with Flash?

I noticed that Dimono usually rants about games and how he will never play them again... I like this one, how long has it been since the last game I enjoyed... Two weeks? Tip for the game: practice.

I put my reasons in my review. To sum them up, I hit obstacles most frequently immediately following hitting another obstacle, because the screen shakes and it's harder to tell where things are; basically, there's no grace period after taking a hit like there is in every other game. Also, I took hits quite a few times from something moving into me from the side that I'd already passed, making it look like I was taking damage arbitrarily from nothing. Those two things made the game extremely frustrating for me, and now that I've gotten the medals I'll be leaving it alone.

I just found this at the very bottom of the Games with Medals page. This has happened before, right?

I just got the 50-pointer in Icy Cave of Frustration, and ended up dying on the level with 4 birds in a row because I jumped the gun. Hopefully now that I've passed level 15 once I'll be able to do it again; I get to 11 pretty reliably already.

Has anyone figured out the secret medal? I know it's not tanking 10 times in a row, but that's all I've thought to try so far. Also, three people have scores over 500, but none of them have the medal for reaching level 15. Anyone know what's up with that?

According to the author, those people are hackers. Highest level reached atm is probably 19 or 20. Also, my hunch is that the secret medal is hitting each caveman for 10 points (so you should end with 250 points), but that would be a pain in the ass to do.

Oh great. So I spend several hours for weeks on this game, Dimono comes in for one day and is already as good as me (I've watched the scoreboard, you haven't played).
I would just play the game normally without worrying for the secret medal... :) It could be like the one in Mechanical Ice Apocalypse where you don't need to do anything.

Can someone explain to me how to get Sequential in Asterozorb? I don't really get the medal's description.

Actually I was the first to get 120 points, the day it came out. I just haven't played in a few days.

Right now I'm experimenting with the game to see if leaving it running on the first level for hours on end will get the medal. My suspicion is that you need a perfect game as well, but if this ends up being the winning play I'm not going to complain. So far, 2 hours and counting and no medal.

Here's the image for the secret medal. Unfortunately, it doesn't help.

Thanks for that, got them all now.

Also, for some reason I keep dying at levels 12-14 at Icy Cave. It's driving me nuts.

then this would be the secret medals in the game "ice cave of frustration", you should contact the author of this game to know how to get it!

Meh, that would take away the fun of searching for it. By the way, it is possible that the secret medal is on the victory screen, since there's nobody who has it yet.

Any progress yet, DiMono?

It's not dying on level 1 ten times in a row, and it's not leaving a level up without doing anything for ...7 hours. Aside from that, I've got nothing.

There's two more that's not in my profile yet. One is collecting 3 speed up at the same time, and the other is reaching a distance of 10,000.

An easy way to get the 88mph medal is to collect all 4 power ups for super mode. You can then fly in that mode for awhile and easily get up to speeds of 90 mph or higher.

I found another medal, but it might be broken. You can only score 1 point to earn it; but I've gotten that several times but no medal.

In this period there are very few new games with medals :(, I remember those days where there were at least 2-3 new games with medals!

I remember those days too, and I'm glad they're over. It really bothers me when I can't keep up with the amount of medals coming in.

Oh, damn. Newgrounds worst programmers unite to make (another) crappy game. And it has insane 0 pts medals that even they probably hacked to get them (look at the order they get it. It doesn't makes sense). What could be worse?

Actually didn't have any problems with that game aside from it being tedious to hold A+S and click twice.

That game below it broke right near the end. I think it was the second last mini game, the piano one. Clicked the first key and it just froze up on me. Now i have to play it again just to get to one mini game :(

In Paranormal Shark, the bug where the shark doesn't show up at the start paid me a lucky visit, I got two hard medals. The author says he has fixed this bug, but no, it's not fixed, good for us. I did it by jumping over the first wood platform without touching it. It has to be a small one, it's not the first time I do it.

In other news, I now hold the top legitimate score in Cave of Frustration. I lost on level 20 unfortunately without reaching the "special levels". I found a text bug which I can tell you about later when the author replies... Nothing special. I don't want to give you any tips on this game until I beat it, if I beat it. I always had this idea on what the secret medal is and I still think I'm right about it. If I ever get it I will tell you.

So despite having dropped one place (by the first time) in the Top Medal Point list, I don't think I'm doing that bad.

I got the Over 9000 medal in Iced Over but I never got more than 3000 points. Profit, I guess...
