Are the medals "A Job Well Done" and "Professional Work" broken? I completed the game on both difficulties and they didn't pop up, or register in the game. Is there something I'm doing wrong, or is it they just don't work?

They don't work for me either. I doubt that we are doing something wrong - they indeed seem to be broken.

Thanks for the confirmation, my friend. At least I know I'm not alone in this.

Survivalist, and arachnologist, don't seem to work.

Arachnologist worked for me, Survivalist didn't. I have a feeling there might be more medals that don't work.

Luck. :P

I think that it's based on whether they have any level 9 weapons, or they have them equipped on their soldiers. Not sure if you have to destroy all their soldiers, or barracks, to have a chance at stealing them.

humph. I've attacked countless lvl 9 armories/barracks/soliders with lvl9 weapons, is my luck that bad?

anyhow, I don't see how I can get the martian medal. NG has almost no active players, while kong has a large bunch of hardcore players who seem to be playing it 24/7

I already PM'd the author about broken medals. I dunno if new ones broke when he updated the the game. In the meantime, I suggest you clear your challenges data (via options menu) and try again. The wave 50 challenges aren't difficult anyways.

It's been like that from the start, with Kong having a 3 to 1 advantage with their numbers. I'll try helping out with the research today.

Meh, the TNT medal and the completionist medal both don't work. The TNT challenge unlocks in-game, and so does the completionist challenge, but no medals. I don't know if I'm going through the game a 3rd time...

I PMed the guy about the medal problems, and asked him if he could add a resend button to the game. No response, yet.

I agree that both medals are very hard to earn.

Usually I wouldn't put in all that effort for a medal but it was pretty fun...until I realized that it's pretty broken in Kong's favour. They make about 100k research per hour, and (by my rough calculations) even 10 research alt accounts + 10 attacking alt accounts (to try to suppress their active attackers) will have trouble catching up, not to mention the effort needed to manage 20 accounts.

Then again, I guess we have other fun things on NG (that's why people aren't playing anymore), perhaps not on kong...

Just wondering because this is an old game, but has anyone gotten any medals for this game or are they broken?

Really fun game for it's concept (paper airplanes), but I'm at a loss whether the medals work or if it's only my end that the problem is on.

The medals work for *Flight* although I had to redo the speedrun medals twice to get them to all unlock.

You can get all the medals except for one. You can't get the 'To Be A Bird' medal for clearing Kenya in 26 days or under. It's one of those medals that has never worked and never been fixed. Unfortunately.

Medals all seem to work so far.

I missed out on 3 medals after all. I got them in-game but not elsewhere. The 3 I got but didn't get, were, Airwalker, Gravity Fighter and Born To Fly.

That's....somehoe not right. I got the medaks of course, but seeing them on that type of game just seems odd.

Any tips on how to land them without jumping in the middle of it? Seems to be the only way to make a 3x or 4x super jump combo

Madness: Project Nexus

I didn't realize this before, but your HP goes up as you level up. Since my last posting on Project Nexus, I had roughly 100 HP. Now I'm lvl 200 with 216 HP. Stats that increase your survivability are Tactics and Endurance, and the first perk of Dexterity. If you're a big picture kind of guy going for the Genocider medal, you may opt out on survivability stats.

Suicide has obviously taken longer for me. It seems that your Tac-Bar refreshes everytime you take a hit to your HP, so a low Tac-Bar may be desirable. Alternatively, you could suicide at a higher wave. For instance, if you suicide on wave 29-30, the first round of enemies will have 1 agent, 1 unitech agent, and the rest special agents. If you opt to suicide on wave 31, the first round of enemies will have 3 unitech agents, and the rest special agents. Unitech agents are much better at killing you than the other guys, so this seems like a viable strategy to suicide on later waves than usual to keep your overall kills-per-minute as high as possible.

It's still worth stressing that G03LMs will start appearing very frequently beyond wave 35, and the PITA red ones appear on wave 37 and beyond, so don't try to go in too deep.

Here's a tip for the game:

It's always a good idea to check the beginning of the levels for orbs.
