Some things have been successfully fixed recently, but there are also some bad news. Few games are entirely broken and should be completely unpublished, because they are no longer functional. And since people would want to know what vanished I decided to put it here.

@TomFulp - here is a list of these games with the necessary comment:

• Unpublished Submission

This one was mentioned recently, you tried to move it to http, but it failed. The game fails to start.

• Unpublished Submission

I told you about it some time ago. i already removed 3 medals from it, but I think there is no sense in keeping the game just to make it possible to play just the first level since the game freezes every time you try to enter the shop.

• Unpublished Submission

It also has been mentioned recently. I talked with the author and it looks like he won't be able to fix it and remove that information showing up every time the game the game loads, blocking all abilities to actually play it. I told him that the game may be unpublished if it won't be fixed, but he did not respond to this.

• Unpublished Submission

The NG build of this game is broken and the author is not willing to fix it despite my numerous PMs about it. After any of the levels is finished the game fails to end it and take the player to another level.

2 Unity games that the authors failed to move either to WebGL or html5 - or rather never responded being asked to do so:

Is there any chance that the issues with medals not unlocking on this game could be solved by reverting it to http? There hasn't been an unlock for it since September of 2017. I also tried my hand at trying to get them unlocked, just in case the author had fixed the medal issues since then. No dice on three different browsers.

Sorry been off newgrounds for a few weeks, very busy atm but will try have an update to fix the medals this week :)

Will update the rest of my flash game's as well, as I have noticed happy jump etc mentioned above /\

You actually don't need to do anything with the medals, since switching your games to http fixed the problem, but if you would want to-for example-try to make one of your games unlock medals under https - and inform what is needed to do so - it would be great :-)

I've gone ahead and unpublished all of these. Sad to see them go but I agree that they've had their chance to update.

I am personally especially pissed because of PRO-R, I invested a lot of time in upgrading my ship and wanted to give it one more try for the rest of the medals, but I haven't heard from the author for 2-3 weeks now.

Oh, as you are already here ;-) Could you switch this one to http?

This is another case where it really would have helped if people took my advice and let you sort by platform (Flash, Unity, HTML5) back at the start when those sorts of games were first allowed on the site.

A complete list would make fixing them all much easier.

That is true. Is there anyway to add that feature now?

It seems this game stopped working yesterday. Does it work for anyone else?
It gets to 74% and then stops, forever frozen on that 74% loading screen.

Even aside from that, Space tycoon medal is broken as it hasn't been awarded in years, yet was clearly the easiest medal in the game to obtain, presumably awarded merely for playing the game. More people have that medal than any other, yet after a certain point no more people were ever awarded that medal.

I just went from 9000 to 8995 not sure what medal caused it

@HerbieG I've never had issues with Enigmata

Nowadays you would have. It is an Armor Games-sponsored game and even if you check it on their website you will find out that you cannot enter the shop after finishing the first level:

It's not loading for me either, same problem.

Noted. I will try to reach the author, but even his VKontakte profile seems to be inactive for about a year already.
If it fails-looks like these "medals for generations" will have to vanish.

If I remember correctly the Space Manager game had to phone home somewhere other than Newgrounds in order for high scores to register. If that website is no longer loading or in existence that would explain why the game itself no longer loads.

I remember that it was actually working like this: loading up to 70-80%, temporarily pausing and then the game appeared fully loaded. It is possible that during that break the game was connecting to the external server that for some reason went down as you say. I also noticed few months ago that the whole score board was rebooted.

I'm part of the short list of people who was able to earn some of the more insane and time consuming medals, so losing them would be unfortunate.

For some reason it really would be sad. I still remember the planning: now earn x amount of Quids, use all the earnings on that type of upgrades etc.

Well, that's why I call them medals for generations:
If I won't earn them then my children will earn them.
And if my children won't get them then their children will get them.
And if their children won't unlock them then their children will surely succeed.
And if their children... ;-)

There were actually many more medals attached to this game, but as Fooliolo once calculated the time needed to earn some of them would exceed the whole lifetime ;-)

However, I'm much more interested in what becomes of his beta game called Space Conquerors.
http://www.newgrounds.com/projects/view/842229

It's a much more mature, detailed, and interesting game than Space Manager despite that fact that a lot of the dialogue hasn't been translated yet. It also has a whole mess of medals that would go live if the game ever gets uploaded to the portal. It would be a shame to see it wallow in development limbo forever.

I also checked this one and the author surely put lots of effort into this. But he sent me a link to it some 2-3 years ago, so I am worrying if he will ever submit it. I only noticed that there are much more medals added now and they are actually working.

Oh, as for the dialogues, I would have an advantage here: I learned to read Russian recently ;-)

Possibly needs the HTTP treatment. As-is the game simply will not load.

Since it says you compete against the ghosts of other players this makes me strongly suspect it's reliant on some external website and probably that cross-site communication must be HTTP.

Yeah, I haven't been able to get this game to work for months.

I thought it was just me.

HTTP conversion was all the game needed. It works fine now.

Have you tried contacting the Author about the broken medals? If so, did they reply?

@CjElliott - please check the medals in this game, especially the higher ones. I just completed the 9th level twice, but the medal did not work. And it would be good if you could apply some mechanism that would remember unlocked medals, or would be re-checking them, for example if level 10 is unlocked then the medal for level 9 is being automatically sent if it is missing.

Hmm, it should have helped, but it didn't. It seems to be a bigger problem: none of the other games from this author work.

Actually if you wait for a while the game unfreezes, so it is functional, but the medals are not being unlocked.
On the author's website there is a list of his games and a note: "feel free to contact me" but of course he didn't bother to include ANY form of contact...

It is toward the end of the month. Remember that if it's a nutcasenightmare game the medals won't work toward the end of the month but will work starting the beginning of the next month, but also it must be on HTTP.

So wait until next month and try again.
