Man trying to get the perfect game medal was certainly a pain. If you are just one pixel off it does not register. I had to restart five times because of that

Yup, if that's the case you will have to do it all over again. I kept a save file from right before I completed all missions and where I didn't play survival yet. Just a tip for if something like this happens again.

I do have a backup but I still have 40 missions left on it.....I dont think it will take such a long time to get to 15000 though.

Can some1 plz PM me the secret medal for Neonider? "PL" ?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2012-03-08 09:01:31


This is of course an old game but I just finished it, but does anyone have a picture of the COMPLETE map of Madness: Retaliation? I am trying to get the 100% map completion medal, and it seems I have gone everywhere, but I still don't have it or the last item (I'm assuming the last item is also the last secret medal) so they are probably in the same place. If there is a special way to access the last place, please also include a description of how to get there if possible. PM me or post a link to it here, please.

THis is what I have so far:

Here is the guide for it. Maybe you can find it in there? I haven't finished the game yet (I don't like madness games), but since the guide is made by the author you can count on it being right.

Tell me about it. I too restarted a buncha times because the detection on certain levels (like you mentioned) is crazy. Like the level with the card table. Trying to get the shadow difference to register drove me nuts!

Yeah I already saw that guide and used it for the boss. Still don't know where everything is, and need help, but I'm not going to concentrate all my time on it so to speak. If anyone does have a picture map of all areas/secrets for Madness: Retaliation so I can get 100% completion, then that would be great. If not, maybe I'll come back to it later and figure it out.

THis is what I have so far:

Chances are if you have the 100% map explored medal, you also have everything else. Unfortunately I don't have the complete map image.

I don't know how many rooms you are missing, but I believe you're missing a room in the Tricky area (bottom left). There was an elevator that led to a space-themed room. You can continue going up from there into yet another space-themed room that has a locker.

I managed to get past level 10 and nothing unlocked.....so I dont know how high of a score you have to have or how far you have to get.

I got to freakin level 16, over 3,000 score, and got most of the 8 letter words (including 2 bonus rounds) and still nothing unlocked for me either. Has anyone tried PMing the author? I would, but judging from the review responses he gives, he seems either to not be able to speak english very well, or is a major dickhead. Or both.

Busy times = late replies =(

At a few days ago, Fooliolo wrote: If all the medals are genuinely broken, then I hope to drive momentum to maintain the medal system. Either PM the author and ask him to check out the issue, or get the broken medals removed. I don't know what the NG staff's policy is on this stuff, if such a thing even exists, but at the very least PG seems interested in acknowledging the fact that there are broken medals, and that they're undesirable. For example, Knuckstrike found the game PRO-R by tedgaming. Before he made the post, the medals were broken and didn't work. However, it was literally only a day ago that the author responded to my PM and fixed the game, even adding many more medals to the game. Whether Knuckstrike would have posted the game when he found it earlier is something for him to say. But I don't want flash devs to attempt ways to gain exposure to their works via medals, only to never find out that they really don't work for the audience.

The PRO-R story is great, and some of the time authors are really helpful (to some extent). However, lots of the medal games that recently became visible are really old games. The real problem is that some of the code got changed after the redesign. Before, medals of a game became visible after some earned a medal in that game. This wasn't the always the case, but it helped keeping games off the list that had their medals wrongly implemented. After the redesign, all of those games became visible. This is where the fun starts. Some of the authors go back to their old games because implementing medals is so much easier now. It's up to us to figure out what authors did this. Like I stated earlier, at least 50 of the ~900 games in the Games With Medals list have non-working medals. This number goes down as artists go back to their old games, but this very fact makes it so difficult for us to keep track of everything.

Broken medals are pretty rampant as it is, and the problem is only going to get worse. The way things are going currently, your suggestion of keeping a database of known broken medals would definitely be the most efficient way to keep all the medal wh0res informed. But wouldn't it also be nice to keep the clutter down by removing broken medals, or even better, broken games? I'm sure whoever is working on the medal system still has their hands full at the moment, but having broken medal games, 0 pt medal games, or no medal games clogging up the gameswithmedals list is pretty stupid, and I want to do something about it. Giving exposure to the magnitude of the issue is a start.

Removing broken medals would be the ideal situation. We both know the amount of time we've spend in the past trying to have this accomplished. PG even made a thread about this very subject, but didn't really care to read past page 1. You made a list of medal problems EVERY WEEK after H-O-S published the top list. I know the admins have more important stuff to do than help such a small part of the site, but the redesign made the problem even bigger.

As long as PG or others who have the ability to nuke non-working medals don't give us any sign of wanting to help is, I just keep my focus on playing the games with medals that DO work. In the meantime, if I can help you guys out with something I'll try my best to do so!
