The medals work and give points. I think it's easy so far.

There's far too much crap to destroy after the temporal lobe, so I'ma stick with 1.
Did you seriously not mean 5? I'll be surprised if you beat it with 1.

Goal of the game: destroy the brain parts and kill the Deadly Butcher. Walls can hamper your ability to do this effectively. Fk everything else, they respawn anyways, and combined with the walls, respawn faster than you can destroy. For this, formation 1 gives you the smallest profile possible while still giving you concentrated fire.

Hell, I even did it on my laptop's trackpad. And I'm definitely no good with those.

I didn't even know you could change your formation in that game. I just used the default. One in the middle, four surrounding me. I think I only got hit 3/4 times. Wasn't that tough. Near the end, there were 3 of those stringy things stuck at the bottom, so I didn't have much room to move. Other than that, easy game.

Why are medals approved so fast for some submissions and not for others? It is something that bothers me and that I cannot understand.

And thanks for your comments up there :)

Why does it bother you? The admins approve them as and when they see fit. That is, if they deem them worthy to be approved.

Not too hard, though for the "all bonus levels with 5 seconds left" medal you have to finish with EXACTLY 5 seconds left, not at least 5 seconds. Also, the ones for getting so many perfects in a row have to be done on the same level, you can't get the last one of one level and the rest in the next level.

I have the second secret medal, no idea what the first one is yet. 480/490 points attained.

I hope the first one isn't somewhat the same as the second one, since I got that medal with pure coincidence.

I found the War Machines quite powerful as well, that cheap Combat makes a big difference. Get to +12 Combat; relax until you can activate all resources.

Also, WALLS! I thought the Hive Minds would be good because they get cheap walls, but the game basically spams them at you...

And yeah, the secret medal has been cleared up? I won every round by activating resources so I had no clue why no one else could get it.

What do you need to get a perfect? Is it based on how quick you are, or how spatially accurate you are?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-02-23 20:50:29


Also, further clarification: The author of 'The Humans are Dead' expects the game to be updated within a couple of days, after which you should get the medal without having to fulfill the 'by activating all resources' requirement.

Spatial accuracy. Time in conjunction to your spacial accuracy determines how much score you get.

I like this game, it has an extremely unique concept for its foundation, AND increments both math skills and quick reflexes at the same time. Plus, the whole thing feels like a quick-to-play mini-game, although it's a lot larger than one. In addition to all that, it actually has medals that are fun and hard to obtain!

We have covered this ages ago. Big Tin and Steel Striker work. The others you mention do not.

The medals don't send yet, but they work for the rest and give points.

For the survival medals, you need to have the EXACT amount of soldiers survive. If it's more you don't get them.

Interesting continue feature... Apparently, when you die fighting a boss, not only do you start at that point but you also start with the same number of units, and powerups, you went into it. Very useful for getting medals that require a certain number of survived units.

Exactly what I needed today. I got my 6 survivors medal on Ice World, once I figured out how to play it safely.

I think letting you guys know I got it was enough.

And if I do get one of those other secret medals people are scratching heads over, that is all you're going to get ;p

Was just coming here to post about this. I got the 1,000,000,000 point medal, but the secret one eludes me. My best guess is that it's for getting a very low score.

I just got 5027 and didn't get a medal for it, so my next best guess is that it's for clearing the entire board, but for only 25 points it seems like a steep task.

It's more of a 5 point task really.

Also, if 5027 is your worst, you try too hard at everything.

I just played (and recorded) a game where I got so big a score it went into scientific notation. I got almost every blue on the screen with a single move. The audio is compressing now, and I'll encode and upload it later tonight.

My move on the blues was worth 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (2^63 - 1) - the rest is incidental.
