It freezes exactly in the moment when you should earn a medal. It can be a https problem. As for the 2nd game - there already were some problems with it in the past. @Exedor - maybe try both on http?

Another one that hasn't been earned in half a year. I got a sponsored animation and the first medal didn't register.


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.

Based on the time that medals stopped unlocking on the game it looks like it could be an https problem.

That should fix the problem, so the medals do not have to be removed.

CjElliott has several medal games with problems. The following games may need to be switched to http.
Idle Programmer - I earned these medals before https, but none have been earned since 9/25/17.
CAZE - medals are not working for me, none earned since 9/17/17.
Happy Jump - "Dress to Impress" works, but the score-based medals do not; unearned since 9/16/17. (After I managed to get over 100 >_>)
His more recent games seem to be working, though Midnight crashed Google Chrome and I can't try Firefox (my usual browser) right now.

Do medals unlock for anyone in this game?

Cause I've tried several times in both Chrome and Firefox and I get achievements in-game but the medals never unlock...

I've checked out the recent unlocks and they don't seem to be broken.

Not the first time a game only and exclusively trolls me, don't worry.
Guess I'm used to it lol.


I Puzzle Good and Triangle Sweeper (by the same author) are two more that seem to have HTTPS issues. I PMed the author because the first game works fine, just doesn't submit the medal or scores (thankfully it keeps your last save at the final level). The second one goes blank after finishing a level (i.e. when a medal should submit).

Also, the last two secret medals in Vatnou are broken. I finally managed to get a score of over 10,000 just to make sure. No one has earned them.

If it is the same author for both games than it is probably the same issue. It will be nice to see them both working.

The medals should be fixed, but you will have to earn them again. That has happened to me several times in the past.

Not sure what you mean. Do you know what the requirements are for the last two medals?

Looks like Dark Bullet and Newgrounds Sim 2017 have been switched to http and the medals are now working (though I'm not sure how to get the last two in the latter).

I have earned all the requirements for a broken medal, and when it was fixed, I did not receive it.

No, I do not know the requirements. Do you?

The first 2 medals seem to be broken, cause based on their description one can guess that they should unlock after finishing one animation and one "music" that give bonus money. The secret medal does work though.

The first one worked for me yesterday. Second one doesn't seem to work unless the requirements are weird. Can't figure out what to do for the secret medal lol

The name of the medal is "Fulp'd", that should be enough hint...

I believe all of these are broken. The author is the only one who has earned the medals for viewing the credits and the Steam page. No one has earned any of the others, though the game is so broken maybe they haven't gotten that far.

Two more that seem to have the HTTPS issue:

I can confirm that all three games are not giving out medals. I checked on Chrome, IE, and Firefox. If they can not be fixed, than remove the medals.

It is always sad when medals are removed and it looks like they might never return. All that hard work earnings them, and they just vanish.

So it was some problem on your side, not caused by the https? Were you trying them under http?

It is possible then that these medals are not dead, @Exedor - could you move this game to http?
When Exedor will move it try to put the medals back and I'll check if they are working.

Zit Storm Beta

None of the medals seem to be working. They award in-game but not on your profile. There seems to be an icon which looks like a medals resubmit button in-game in the in-game medals page? It also does nothing.
