Whoops it got blammed.
What happens now? I see that some users earned the medals already. Seems like I was too late to get them before it got blammed. I wonder why it god blammed, especially so quickly. Does anybody know more?

In the author comments stands that with some users only a white screen appeared. It wasn't a problem for me, but apparently enough people PM'ed him saying it was a problem. He probably didn't want to get a low score due to a bug. He'll reupload it for sure.

There goes my save point...

Don't know if this got mentioned or not, but it's on the gameswithmedals list now. I was kinda wondering why some people got an unusually large influx of points.

Wow way to rip me off!

The Gamepirate cup was a month away. Something triggered to upgrade all the tourneys to silver instead of bronze, and now the Gamepirate cup became the undefined cup. I decided to go ahead with it anyways, and I evidently won the Gamepirate cup, but I didn't get the medal.

Fun fact: if you start a new game but quit before you select a monster, you'll get an undefined monster and a maxed out calendar time. Missingno much?

There are enough people who b/p and are a bit of a regular here. Now it was a coincidence, since it was only my first or second time today checking the portal. Usually it takes a bit longer, sometimes even a day or two. Or until a well-known author has a medal.

Does anyone know how to get the formula medal on rock rush: undervaults?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-11-04 20:00:51


I could swear this one just got its medals approved. Or I may be incorrect (as usual) and they've been worth points for awhile now, but I didn't see it mentioned...

Is it just that I suck, or is this game really difficult? I've gotten as far as this big ol' bowling ball coming after you, but the placement of the blocks make the jumps really hard to maneuver. I get so close to getting further into the level only to die by that damn ball hitting me right after I get the key, and have to make the jump right past the first hole in the floor.

Grr!

The game can be hard at times. I didn't really notice an increase in difficulty between the levels, but the bosses were annoying at times. That said, the last boss was SO much fun, I really enjoyed every second of it.

I'm a bit afraid of what the secret medal might be. If it's a 0-death thing I'm going to skip it (until WonderTheHedgehog earns it, obviously :P).

It took me three hours to beat this game, that's nearly my whole afternoon.

You can't stop a second or make any mistakes in any of the bosses, though it is nessecairy to stop every once in a while at the third boss.

The secret medal has nothing to do with deaths, but with time. The author has it.

Ah, I see! I can definitely do that with some practice. Thanks Knuckstrike! =)

Grr!

It's pretty difficult, but it's not absurdly hard to the point where medal points aren't worth it. Personally I've died 10+ times trying to get past the boulder xD But with practice, nearly any level (except secret level 1) can be reliably passed without death.

Rough milestones for time attack mode:
Stages 1-9: 1:50
Boss 1: 2:30
Stages 11-19: 6:00
Boss 2: 6:50
Stages 21-29: 10:30
Boss 3: 12:00
Secret level 1: 12:40
Secret level 2: 13:35
Secret level 3: 14:40
Boss 4: 16:00 (I don't know if you have to do this, I ragequitted after my 11th death in secret level 1)

Reaching the secret levels prematurely forfeits time attack mode, and the secret medal time is 15:27. Fun for the whole family!

Thanks for the tips and encouragement, guys (and for not making me feel like a total idiot for my lack of skills). I'll have to revisit the game later on down the line when I have enough patience. :)

I decided to put on my tryhard hat this time, and managed to reduce the time to 1:35. I'ma see if I can get a recorded run of the whole game, although this is not a guarantee xD

Wheee! I'm sure I can reduce the lava stage times even further, but my hands are cold, my keyboard sucks, and I'm not interested in attempting the whole thing when I know that you pretty much have to not die.

My best time for Stage 1 is 3.71 seconds! Suck it!

Shouldn't be, as I got it in my profile. Granted, I got it before the game had its medals approved, but I don't see why it shouldn't be available.

The cup for me shows gamepirate, but when it gets to the day, the championship button doesn't light up, and when I go to look, it's an undefined cup. When I enter and beat it, it's gamepirate, and it's unlocked on my trophy page in game. So, who knows. Also there isn't a summer cup.

But, I finally beat all the other cups available and got the 4 other medals. In terms of difficulty, the game is pretty easy, if only more bosses were like the final cup boss, that guy was decently hard.

I don't know if anyone still cares about this game, but I saw some quite regular people here not having some medals in the towers of annoy game, so I made a video. It's the highest non-glitched score thus far.

I just felt like making it, so if you don't like that game, don't feel urged to watch it.

Wait, since when was it worth medal points? o.O

... and done. Classic puzzle that can be expanded indefinitely. I've had the pleasure of playing a version where you had to move a tower of size 12 -_-;

Took a few tries and my left hand feels a little like everything I type now is too slow, but I got it :).
