what happens is that I have to use codesandbox and when I try to use it in my games (eg pico's advertiza) the page crashes. I don't delete the medal because if it works for me at any time (and it doesn't crash) I can put the mess of the newgrounds API

Either implement the medals in your games or remove them. We usually give the authors some time to deal with this, usually like 1-2 weeks, but medals cannot stay broken forever.


My metal in my game literally says you cannot get it. I thought it was funny, but now people are pooping their pants over it. Next time, try reading it.


im not trying to be mean, but maybe next time don’t take my game to seriously, just try to enjoy what’s given to you

I'm just saying that having a broken/unobtainable medal is against the rules. You see this sentence

"Be sure to test your medals, preferably before publishing your game. Broken medals will be removed by moderators"

here?

Infiltrating the Airship


There is one achievement that I can't seem to obtain, the You Win! achievement in Infiltrating the Airship. I got the achievement in game but for some reason I can't get it to show up on Newgrounds. I'm not sure if anyone else has the same issue but I'll post it here to address the issue.

I'm not sure if anyone else has the same issue but I'll post it here to address the issue so I assume it is broken (I also don't know how long this issue has been going so it might be new).


Actually, recently I discovered that if I delete in-game save data, it will delete everything except for that medal. (Note that I am playing on the NG player since the game has Flash)


(Also I edited the original post on here since I wanted to add more details plus I ran out of edit time [wish I knew that sooner])

Paste the below into file explorer:

and search for the file named "618518_Airship.swf", delete that, and try again.

i said it was impossible to get
so its not broken


Not functional medal = broken medal.

That's the way it is.

So you got 3 options:

  1. Implement it properly;
  2. Remove it or
  3. it will be removed as broken anyway.

You could check the Newgrounds.io guides to find out how to add medals to different types of games.


There is no point in keeping a broken medal anyway. It will only make people downvote your submission.

Since I’m not planning to add the API any time soon, I’ll just delete them and the score so it wouldn’t cause any more trouble. Who knows, maybe it was resetting the encryption twice but not the medals and score that was causing the problem in the first place. I’ll try again once I have my other ducks in a row.

Whoa, whoa! ;-) So far I only wanted to ask FlamingDoom and maybe @JimmyCarlos who unlocked this medal this week what else can be done about it ;-) But the fact is that this medal does not work in an entirely "normal" way.

Yes, I can confirm it works - but it's VERY broken. It only unlocked on the 3rd time of completing the game. I had to delete my previous save file, then beat the game normally with 3 stars on each level and then it awarded in the final cutscene.

Did you do this in one sitting or did you return to the game? I wonder if it can matter.

It has to be done in one sitting, and I think it also has to be the first time you complete the level it has to be 3 stars. Dying is fine though.

And adding the fact that Gamezhero never cared about the API disconnection it makes this medal even more broken...

Ok, I think I'm done with it. Stuck in the middle, because the longer you play the game the more lag you get and the less responsive the controls are becoming. And some of the levels cannot be passed without having a perfect control of jumping. I could think of one way to avoid that from happening, but... @TomFulp - why Gamezhero games cannot be run in NG Player?

You need to implement medals in your games and test them. Otherwise they will be removed. A tip for authors of games that were made in Scratch: you can try to get in touch with this guy: @JimmyCarlos
