Was waiting for somebody to post so I didn't have to triple post lol. Wanted to post this pic. Looks like the no shark showing up hasn't been fixed yet. Sucks that you only get wooden planks to jump on, but still helped me get 4/5 medals.

I got all the medals is Warlords except the one for beating the game with all races. You can unlock some races such as the Arnolds and the Demons by beating the game with other races. The game tells you how many you need. Also waynerz99, your guide tells players that is obvious they should play on Easy mode. Wrong. In this mode you cannot get the medal for defending your castle. Play on Hard at least once.

I got all medals for Sticky Blocks. Feel free to check my medals page and look for them. I don't remember anything about it :P

Oh, so that's why I never got the medal for defending my castle. Going to go add that to the walkthrough. And thanks for the sticky blocks medal. Saw that you got it after completing half the levels, so i started playing on level 26, and found the medal on level 27.

See, I'm thinking there has to be a reliable way to make this happen. For those who have seen it, had you just had a good or bad game? Did you submit your score? Was it your first game of the day? If we can figure out what all the instances have in common, we can figure out how to do it reliably, and that will help the rest of us to get some of those stupidly hard medals out of this game.

According to one of the reviews in Sticky Blocks (Foolio on page 2 of the game's reviews), the secret medals are in level 27, and Bonus level 7. The author of that game didn't seem to mind that listed, so it should be okay to list here.

I don't think the score / first game of the day or anything like that matter, but if it helps, I didn't submit my score and it was my third game I believe. I think it may have to do with where the shark is when you click replay. Perhaps if you click it right as he vanishes off the screen, he won't reload.

Is there any trick to near misses? I'm just trying to stay close to him, but if he lunges forward, i'm dead lol. And same with the 2nd secret medal regarding a special shark or something. Any trick to that?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-01-27 16:46:24


I still think the shark won't show up depending on the size of the first platform and how you approach such platform. Back then, I tried many times and I got it. The more you try the more chances of getting it.

About the tiger shark, it seems to me, because of the way I got it, that is random. But I could be wrong. Wrong about all this... :P

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-01-27 16:57:50


Happened again. Was trying to get lucky with the near misses again. Just sitting in front of the shark and hoping he does't jump out, so dying often. Maybe that is the key?

The jet pack method seems to be the best. You can rack up plenty of near misses without pressing a button if you hover at the right place. Play close attention to your fuel and play it safe. The shark tends to move slightly forward quickly and a long way forward slowly. The real one to watch out for is the fast one, make sure you are just out of range pretty much all the time.

Just posted a score of 1.98 million and racked up a couple tough medals. Played for quite a bit and still haven't died 30 times or found this tiger shark. I don't think collect 100 / damage the shark with 100 will be attainable for me, but i'll try for 50 near misses and 30 grass.

I thought I had 30 grass in this one, but maybe they don't count if you don't jump off? I only jump on them if the shark is on the right side of the screen, so if i can't get off in time, they just sink. Medal says land on 30, but maybe its coded when you jump off 30? I don't know.

I did it this way and I got it. If you have it on mute, you might be missing the sound effect?

Shhh, it's a secret!

I was a nibblet back then. I saw lots of people doing it, so I figured "why not?" When I posted the answers to Impossible Quiz (one of the first people to do it, if not THE first one), I managed to get up to 41 upvotes at 100%. Felt good, I won't lie.

Haven't played the game in awhile. I still need to get the 100 bomb hit and 30 death medal for it; but I'm a little leery of both. It took me a long time to collect 100 bombs the 1st time round, and that was when the game glitched. I'm not looking forward to wasting a lot of time to trying to get it for so little points. The 30 death may be impossible to get given how often the game glitches on me with no shark showing up.

Oop! Sorry about that. I'm pretty much a nibblet here myself, so I'm still learning the ropes. On the plus side though... gave you credit in my post. :)

Nah don't worry about it too much. I actually "got my foot in the door" when I saw an even earlier reviewer give away the first secret medal.

On another note, the stupid Pacifist achievement in Sonny 2 is being a real dick. I have gotten it before (but didn't get the medal), and I know its conditions aren't entirely what it says they are. But I'll ask here anyways: Does anyone remember everything that needs to be done to get the achievement? I really don't want to have to replay the game again on Heroic with no training if that's what it takes.

You could always look at the medal guide for it.

Well, I didn't get the 'no shark'-glitch for Paranormal Shark Activity, but what I DID get was the Tiger Shark. Strange thing is, it popped up BEFORE I went of the dock. Luckily the first few bites can't harm you.

So I was right about this.

And I am also right about the secret medal in Icy Cave of Frustration. The author confirmed my guess in a PM. Clever me. I got it by putting together things he said in several places... If anyone wants to know I can tell you. But fortunately no one is playing this game so...

I still pick it up from time to time. It takes a long time to get anywhere substantial though, because the hit boxes get smaller and smaller. I'm pretty sure the secret medal is what we all think it is though; a badge of extreme aiming excellence.

Just had the same thing happen. I always thought he popped up in the middle of a game, not at the start of a level. I played 3/4 games where I got a score higher than 1.8 mil trying to wait for the tiger shark to appear, then just started dying quick so I could get that 30 kills medal and got him around kill 34. I guess there is no save file for this and it has to be done in one go, because I died way more then 30 times before, just not in one sitting.

And I'd like to know the icy cave secret if you don't mind posting it here / pming me. Might take a shot at that game next.

Has medals. Game broke when I tried to use the sink. The interact menu wouldn't come up any longer after I did that... Only had one room left to clear too.

You got farther than me. It glitched when I was playing the arcade machine part.

I had it glitch when I replayed the arcade, and when I tried to use the toilet. But if you stick to doing things that you need to do to win, you shouldn't have any problems. The only achievements I'm missing at this point are getting 20,000 points on the arcade machine and the "Ladies Man" one, but I think I know how to do that one. I think it's going to be secret though, so I don't know if I should tell what my theory is.

Well, it's official, my idea for the Ladies' Man medal was right. So I guess you can see it on my profile, and we'll find out later whether it's a secret medal. Two things to note: Boss of Toss doesn't get saved in the game, only on your profile; getting 20,000 in the arcade game is fucking hard - I only got it with a lot of luck in that I had hardly any steel boxes in my game and lots of big crates when I had a big head. So assuming all of them register (I haven't counted), that's another game down.

Same here! Don't know why some people get them and some don't!! >_<

I have the same problem. My profile shows the first medal I got for it, and one that I got just not, but all the others I got in between aren't showing up even though I have them in game. Could NG servers have been down or something? Is there a way to get the medals without having to re-earn them?


See my news post with medal hunting links and tools. I made a program NGMedals that finds your statistics and unearned medals.

There is also a browser script.

Pfuh, I try to play this game every day, WITHOUT rage quitting. And yeah, the medal is probably gotten by getting the highest score possible. Although something crossed my mind a few days ago. It could also require you to get the LOWEST score possible. That'd be even worse (imagine yourself hitting all those cavemen for 5 points).
