There's no way to do that, not yet. The medal system is not complete yet, it's just on the "beta phase". Woah that sounds cool.

Cool, apparently it was submitted with the medals instead of them being implemented later.

100% agree. Severely unpolished. Too much focus on the out-of-game artwork. Tons of glitches. This game should not be a game to showcase the medal system.

I second that. The game is pretty bad and there are so many glitches. I have no real desire to play it.

TIp against the chick.Dont use shooting weopans cause she will shoot you anyways use sword or that cicrcel thingy.She uses the weopans that you use.If you shoot she shoots.If you melee she meles too.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2009-03-14 05:45:49


this game is ridiculously unplayable, especially for medals;

anyhow, I struggled through level one, finally done it, and level two is just pathetic, it's just a normal boss, on her own, no extra mobs, however, she copies your attacks, if you shoot, she shoots, and you'll end up in a crossfire, if you meele each other, she'll eventually end up blocking, pick a variety of attacks instead of just attacking naturally with 'D'

next little problem is her aerial strikes, if you jump and 'D' she blocks a fair few times, however, she might decide to fly up in the air, and she'll swoop into you, therefore taking damage, I've not found a way past this yet, besides trying to double jump before-hand. the next aeirel is fairly easy to dodge, she'll jump into the air (while your on the floor) and slam her two-handed down, you can easily walk out of the way before she manages to hit the floor.

she's extremely frustrating, so I assume I'll be here for a good hour or two until I kick her ass.

As most everyone has said Fear Unlimited Issue2 should not have medals. I'm sure the author did his best on the game but sadly it didn't come out all that well. Mainly because the game is to hard. I'm talking hard in the not fun way. I mean really, enemy's are way to over powered and can kill you way to easily. This game is just to hard and enjoyably to have medals. It's really that difficult of a game, even on the easiest skill set.

We all should get Psycho Goldfish or whoever to get rid of medals on this game.

I agree with most people who posted here and like half of the reviews for that game. The game is just completely unplayable. It´s filled with glitches, like I fall through the floor as soon as the game starts and have to get hit before I can fight. When I build up combo´s, enemies always end up behind me somehow and just stab me once and that ends the combo. And those explosive enemies seem to get stuck to you or something and there seems to be no way to avoid being blown up by them as running away is just not possible. I don´t see why they would give medals to such a game, honestly.

If anyone has any tips on how to prevent the things I mentioned above, I would gladly hear them.

Aren't you overexagerrating a bit here? Yeah sure the medals are really hard to get but they're not impossible and they work. Maybe if they didn't work then they could be removed, I'm sure the author will listen to the fans and he might make it a bit easier and fix glitches.

Every working game should have medals, and people are just getting angry because they can't get ones medals, don't worry.. there'll be more for you!

Don't like it. Controls are pretty bad and animations are also very stiffy. Concept of the game is great, though.
Don't think I will get that many medals from this game.

I have no problem giving new submissions the ability to have medals but the games should at least be polished. As Auz mentioned, there are so many bugs such as falling through the floor, getting stuck off screen, etc. that make this game unplayable.

May I even propose a new voting system?

The standard underjudgment system remains and then after a submission passes, users get to vote if the submission is medal worthy. I doubt it would ever happen but this game is a clear example: Decent game that should definitively be on NG, but does not deserve medals.

Yeah the game is not very good, looks like it was released too soon and the author didn't want to fix the glitches. However I'm sure this will happen many times in the future when the medal system is free for all.

If you want to take advantage on a glitch, just jump or take your enemy to the air (up+D) and then keep pressing D, your character will start "flying" while hitting the enemy. Works with groups too.

The mode does not matter, but you need to get 100 kills for the weapons in one round without dieing.

I'm fairly sure you have to die and return to menu for the medals to take effect, otherwise you have a firefox adblocker on.

Nope, you don't have to day to get the medals. But you do need to die if you want to get the in-game achievement which will later be useful to get the secret weapon (artifact 19), so you better die if you want to get it.

And remember that to get the medals which are getting a certain amount of kills you must do everything in one single match (the mode doesn't matter, it's the same). That means that killing 75 enemies in one match and later killing 75 more in another won't get you the misanthropist medal.

Maybe it's the problem with the Firefox adblocker though I have no idea how that works.

Huray! I got all the medals in thing thing arena 3! Even after having problem with spike grenades because of the low ammo and artifact not appearing, I finally did it!

I'l try to get the medals that I am missing on Portal Defenders later...
Also about the new game, I am not even going to try for even a single achievemnt, the game sucks!

Yes it is. Beat the last boss (at least I think it's the last) and now the game won't go on. That dragon is just lying there, bleeding endlessly. I still can change weapons, but nothing else is happening. This sucks!

Given how the Badges at Kongregate have worked, you should all hunker down and get used to the haters, especially since there are so many more achievements per game here at NG. There are plenty of reasons, good and bad, but what it boils down to is that some people just seem to think certain games just shouldn't get achievements and should have them removed, and by "certain games" I mean "someone will hate every single game that gets achievements from here until the end of time".

That is unless NG opens up the achievement API and virtually everyone has them. Then they won't be as special and people won't care enough to bitch. I'm not really sure because I haven't been paying the closest amount of attention, but sometimes it looks like that's the plan.

I went on quick match and threw my weapons at someone until they died, I did not get an achievement.

Like plenty of people have said, are you using Firefox with Adblock Plus? I mucked up the 100 Kills with the Arrow Gun (so... slow...) because of that.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2009-03-14 12:17:10


I don't know if they should let pornographic flashes use the medal system. Young kids who want to earn lots of medals would feel obligated to play them. However, I have a feeling they will allow it anyway.
