Oh man. Right now I'm at 17.5 million points and exactly at day 300. No idea how long it's gonna take, but I assume another 50 days. Also, I'm about to enter rage mode because of the mute button not muting the fucking farts. >:(

There. 346 days. Man, am I glad that's over. I couldn't bear the farts anymore. I've accumulated a total of $10,858,235. And I'm fucking tired. Damn you, medal addiction!

Yeah, I turned my amp over from aux to radio so I'm listening to some rock instead of the game. I'm also taking my time, because I still have shit to do today.

Also, in hindsight it would be incongruous to make the medal for maxing out the Psy smileys worth 100 points. Odds are you're going to get it before or very shortly after reaching the 15 million point medal, which is also worth 50, so making the other worth 100 would put them out of order.

I'm sitting at 16 million points right now, and I am so not risking it. I'll be backing my game file up at about 19.9 though, so that if the medal doesn't send for some reason, and if the continue feature works, I won't have to do all that again.

Continue works, by the way.

Anyway, I'm now fully finished the game. Turns out you shouldn't underestimate the utility of the exploding smileys, as buying a few of those helped so much more than buying more clicks in the late (moves>30) game. In fact, as soon as I had some of those, I finished every day in 1 click, rendering those purchases obsolete. Crazy. I wonder what the fastest you can win is... but I'll let someone else figure that out.

I find it kind of odd that it took me hardly any time to get 20million points, while it took LiquidOoze 346 days. At the end of day 80 I had the medal. Maybe it's because I have so many more psychic smileys? Here's my upgrade screen that followed my 20million-points day:

Pretty strange... I don't even see how that is possible. I'm not 100%, but I think points have to do with the number of smileys you kill or the combo you have.

And you maxed out all four types of smileys before you upgraded the click number to max? Strange I gotta tell ya.

It turns out that you end up getting less points once you reach the $30,000-in-one-day goal. Because of my small number of Smileys, I had been getting under that for ~200(?) days. I had 250 million points when I finally got the task completed, and around 90(?) psychic smileys.


And you maxed out all four types of smileys before you upgraded the click number to max? Strange I gotta tell ya.

I had been getting everything done in one click since ~day 30, so I felt no reason to upgrade the click past then. I was getting a small amount of money, so I decided to upgrade the normal, bomb, and then multi-smileys. After that, I just went ahead and finished off my psychic smiley number. I then upgraded my click to level 3, and found out that it was the max number. Also, I highly doubt my high-score for this game will be beaten anytime soon.

so much games so little time..

Pretty good game. All can be attained in about 30 minutes, aside from the 250M one. Highest I could get was 190.

Also, the secret medal is very luck based. It's on my profile if you want some tips, i'm glad it wasn't beat hardcore mode without dying.

I thought so too, so I put it to the test just now. Using something very similar to his setup, I hit 20 million on day 66. This is what I had after doing it:

I'm seriously getting over 500,000 points each day at this point. It looks like before hitting the 30,000/day mark it applies the combo as a multiplier in some way, while after hitting it the multiplier is not applied.

Hehe, I got it by accident. Also, note on the one for destroying three things in one dash: I got it with two dashes chained together. I was trying on distance mode, but I guess there's probably a good place in story mode to get it easily.

Thanks for the tips on chained smiley, I got 20M pretty quickly. But then it took me about until day 250 to get all the smileys maxed :/ I finished the psy ones last and it took about five days to save up for one by the end.

So I finally got around to picking up and playing World Revolution RPG. Pretty much got everything done with out any issues but I was just wondering if there was a point in the quests where if you had not run into Karry then you would not run into him. I waited until I had done most of the quests for all the exp but now I can't seem to find him when the first time through the game he came right out right out

I disagree, I have one of them.

It was working when I played - and it had the medals showing below. Sadly, I maxed out several of the things before I found out that I wasn't getting any medals for them... Well, it works now, but still... It sucks.

And for that one medal for the Squirrel game, hitting 3 thing in dash mode, it also counts the fireball. At least that what it looked liked when I got it - this was in Distance mode.

Well, if you're at the end, and you accepted either of the other last two missions, he won't show up - I beleive. It's why you need to have two saves near the end before you accept any of those last missions, or you will have to start over from the beginning.

I have yet to accept either of the very last quests but I finished every single one before them. Hmm I still need to get to 30 to so I guess I'll keep going and yes I have another save file just incase its just awhile back

Not true. I had the final Metafighter mission (kill El Presidente Myst) when I ran into the alien guy for the first time. Save scumming ftw!

Uh, that was the last medal I needed to get, and it was driving me nuts! Then I realized you could hold down spacebar for a much longer dash. Maybe that's what you really did.

Well, I found him twice at around lvl 27-28 when I'm trying to find the vet sailor's engine so I could sail to the Alien Base (KAUFO-related quest). And they were around a similar area just north of the lake west of the port.

It's also entirely possible that Karry is an area-specific encounter. People have reported seeing Feather around the region where Alpha Village is located, and that's where I found her too (at lvl 23 >.<).

Was unable to find karry I hit 20 and started back to a later save but now I can't find Karry or Feather, If I did not hate not getting all the medals in a game I'd just quite but sadly I have to have them all

That's where you and I differ: I'm not even going to play that game because I don't care to grind out my medals unless it's a game that I know for a fact is fun. I keep hearing about how that's a really long game for relatively low medal points, so I'll pass on it and get my points elsewhere.

I think I'm going to leave the 250m medal and the secret medal alone in Squirrel Game. For some reason the game's being really temperamental about where it places obstacles and whether it accepts my jumps, so I'm going to cut my losses while I'm still on speaking terms with it.

Seriously, how did you manage to get less than 20 deaths on your first try. I've beaten the game like what, 30 times, and I still don't have it.

Look at some of his other medals and you'll know the answer. I think I like his D-Day Defender medals the best. =)

I kinda hate to be the one pointing stuff like that out all the time, but it's just so annoying people do stuff like that.
