And most of them are quite hard and annoying to get. It seems to me like you'll just have to aim for all the upgrade medals game by game. You'll never get them all in one.

When I saw they're all worth 5 points, I said fuck it. I'm not even going to play the game. If the values get adjusted in a reasonable way, someone come here and say so.

Only 5 pts medals?

Well that's disappointing.

I'm still playing it though. :P

Holy crap indeed. Got all the medals (except the play 30 games one) in ~2 hours. Getting 10m points was the hardest medal, I got like 10070000 pts using the machine gun, but I'm sure it can be done with the shotgun as well. For the 3k shotgun kills in one round, try to avoid the nukes/flamethrowers because the game gets much harder as you progress.

Might have had something to do with the buggy controls in it. There are a lot of complaints over that in the review section.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-03-20 20:54:28


So now what? We wait until it gets reuploaded? I hate this whole blamming system. Who cares if it sucks, I'd still play it for the medals. Why delete it?

The medals are still worth points in Nijsse's profile. Is that supposed to happen?


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.

Yeah, we wait. I can't play the game without the controls bugging out, and I use firefox.

Why do 90% of the reviews say that the controls locked and you automatically died, but Nijsse didn't have any problem getting all of the medals? Did anybody else have success with the controls not breaking?

The controls never broke for me, but I didn't play the game for long. I only have one medal. I hope it'll be reuploaded.

Yeah I don't get it, I didn't have any trouble at all playing the game, and I played it for 2 hours straight. I used firefox and pop-up mode as always, so I have no explanation to why it worked just fine for some people, and not at all for others. Also, the game didn't get blammed by the users (Score at Death: 3.25/5.00), but it got deleted by either the author or an admin.

How do you scroll up on this one? I tried double clicking the character (like it says in the instructions), but it doesn't work.

Are you sure it's not working? Remember that the background moves really slowly, so you can barely see that you're going upward (or wherever you're going).

For the game: Chained Smiley, is the 15 Million medal working?
I checked my profile and I had the 20 Million medal, but not the 15? Has anyone else experienced this?


Insert useless information.

It worked for me.

I was sort of afraid of this, okay, I got some work to do...

Does anyone have any idea what the game means by dodging enemy attacks?

Although, I've done the medals I care for; based on the amount of time it will take vs the number of medal points, I don't think I'll be continuing in this one.

Hold shift and move around by clicking your mouse. If you do it correctly you don't get hit by bullets.

I don't believe there is a secret medal for the game. The one underneath it is called Testmedal, and it has the same image as the beginner medal.

Is that even mentioned ingame? I don't recall seeing that mentioned anywhere.

Yeah, it's not working unfortunately. I see the little arrow at the top when the rocket leaves the screen, hit the button, and nothing moves until the game ends in defeat. I dunno. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but there are a few reviews that point out the exact same problem. I'll keep screwing around with it and hope for the best.

Yes, when you pause ingame, and press next a few times. When you play the game for the first time, you can only see the first 3 pages or so, when you pause afterwards ingame you can see them all. Also, the shift+move thing might not be exactly how it works, but I earned every dodge medal using it.

You're doing it wrong, sir! You can double click yourself from the moment the countdown has ended. Just experiment a little bit with it, and I'm sure it will work. Those few reviewers made the same mistake I think, I got the mission failed screen a few times too before I figure out how it worked.

Nijsse has it right. When you're boosting, you'll notice the character is going into the middle of the screen in a unique posture. The screen will also have a graphical "speed up" effect visible on the sides. In addition, you'll notice that your energy is draining faster than normal. If and when you decide to stop boosting, all the indicators will disappear.

I beat normal mode on my second try. The first attempt was a failure due to not understanding the boost mechanic o.O
