I am just mocking the way this obvious hacker was officially called during those events...

#

A few months ago, somewhere in the universe...

#

I got the last achievement on idling to rule the gods! it was a fun game and I played for about a year. im going to miss the game

frank aurora
#

Only a year? Wow, twice as fast as me. I am proud to be a snail.

frank aurora
#

Hmm... Incremental Adventures is stagnating too much. Does anyone have an idea of which settings are optimal once at the fourth ascension layer?

lime crag
#

idk I finished that game in 2024 and never played since

frank aurora
#

Lucky you.

silk cave
#

worst part about it was that i got too into it and flew by some hours, but honestly pretty fun besides having no idea why people wouldn't spawn/build/do jobs in an area lol

frank aurora
#

Give me that layout. 😭

#

As for the game, yes, I remember when shortly before the end, the population suddenly collapsed for no apprent reason and I struggled for days to find how to solve that.

silk cave
#

for me it turned out that, despite everyone’s thirst being fine, they just needed more water and they suddenly would decide to explode

#

that and they’ll prioritize making pottery over bricks and houses and sabotage half of their island which was fun πŸ˜”

frank aurora
#

People are dumb. Eh, this game is pretty realistic.

silk cave
#

pushed wc for the first time in a while and got to e200, should i go to bootcamp 2 or just grind it out? i feel like i've seen some conflicting information lol

frank aurora
#

Nah, stay in the first one. Otherwise, you would probably just waste a lot of time.

tall carbon
#

I went boot 2 with better knowledge so I played better but it took me so long I don't know if it was worth it

silk cave
#

sounds good to me, honestly im okay with it taking even a little longer i just think the psychic pain of starting over at 0 might outweigh the benefits 😭

#

i gotta start tackling the games ive just been doing dailies in, ive been making a lot more progress w this and far orion actually putting time into it

frank aurora
#

I keep wanting to rename the latter Far Onion.

silk cave
#

certainly sounds like a more fun game πŸ˜”

frank aurora
#

Haha

silk cave
#

i honestly just don’t know if i want to start one among zombies because yeah id like to finish it earlier but it’s also

#

such a bad game

#

so i might just stick with the easier/less repulsive idle games

frank aurora
#

Progress was fine at the beginning... then I broke a few teeth against a wall. Like the rest. I miss the time when badges on multiplayer games stopped right when they should. πŸ˜”

silk cave
#

i still can’t believe they made the requirements literally impossible at first lol

#

ig it confirmed they kinda just slapped badges on haphazardly tho, not that that was in much doubt

frank aurora
#

You seem to forget the garbadges on... the game which I forgot the name of, that required to unlock a non free level.

silk cave
#

omg that’s right

#

deck adventures, forgot about that mess

frank aurora
#

Yes, thank you. I will have to get back to it someday, by the way...

silk cave
#

i remember it being not super bad but still somehow maddening

#

like the facebook card games lol

#

so many gems from the last few years

frank aurora
#

I was struggling with a certain battle and I took a break.

Two years ago...

silk cave
#

me with dungeoneers, with that i tried a couple days ago and gave up again 😭

#

ill figure it out one day, probably after i exhaust everything else

#

so like 10 years

frank aurora
#

That one looked appealing but I keep postponing the day I will work on it.

tall carbon
#

dungeoners is infinite

silk cave
#

it’s honestly not too bad a game the badges just suckkk

balmy wind
#

hmm

frank aurora
#

What a motivating anthem!

silk cave
#

i made a maybe less than perfect macro for dream world kills, and to get the 1m kills badge it would take...31 straight days of it running

#

i think it rlly says something when even the cheaty way is absurdly time consuming lol

#

and not even the worst badge the game or site has to offer!

tall carbon
#

epic xd I just refused to do those in hope they would get removed or adjusted but yeah everything stopped

silk cave
#

i'd really like to know how they decide what to adjust, because even back when they would sometimes do it it's weird how they didn't do shit about ieh2 or dream world but did for like, astral raiders or whatever

frank aurora
#

They are complete idiots. Stop trying to understand them; that will save you from some big headaches.

humble cobalt
#

Long time no see. Time to claim this Impossible one!
(Unfortunately the "get all heroes to level 18" badge is the real long one)

tall carbon
#

yes the "hard" one is quadruple the impossible

humble cobalt
#

Especially since you can't use Elf or Dwarf in the daily hunts. And because they actually suck at killing dragons compared to humans :/. Have to carry them by sharing Human's xp

frank aurora
#

How long did that one take?

humble cobalt
#

Can't tell as I've been playing very occasionnally from time to time over the last year and a half.
I'd say roughly 30hours of active gaming

frank aurora
#

Okay, thank you! That will undoubtfully be my next target after Far Orion, then.

humble cobalt
#

But the hard badge is much longer

frank aurora
#

Four times that is still immensely shorter than garbadges on idle blerghs.

humble cobalt
#

Also I actually kinda like the game

frank aurora
#

Me too. I liked it immediately when I first played it, but switched to another game and another game and another game and another game and... as more and more garbadges were released. I never took the time to get back to it, eh.

humble cobalt
#

This kind of epic win sure helps πŸ˜…

#

Then again, I'd need another 4 like those to get Dwarf and Elf to level 12 :/

frank aurora
#

Is it this rare?

humble cobalt
#

Using only one potion for 16 dragons without premium may be a first for me πŸ˜„
I used 5 potions for the next 16 dragons πŸ˜…

#

Which was only a 75% bonus IIRC

frank aurora
#

Okay.

frank aurora
#

@silk cave
Flash games are playable in Pale Moon again. I have no idea what they did in the first place to make them completely vanish from there, nor what they did to make them reappear...
There was also a bug that I had to fix on my end (version 10.4), caused by some small changes from them... that were probably related to one of their fixes.

silk cave
#

WOOOOO

#

im glad I wasn’t just missing smth and it was just completely broken lol, thank you

silk cave
#

feels like i'm running a steam engine every time i open a game but it does (usually) work, it just seems like all the cached saves are gone πŸ˜”
think that's probably just gonna end up being an issue on my end tho haven't used it in a hot minute

frank aurora
#

"Cached"? Flash stores save files in cookies (and I still have mine).
If you wee not typing about Flash games... well, then I still have my save files too.

#

I just checked with SCGMD4 and... that line made me laugh.

#

I have been thinking lately that I should go back to hunting the few real badges that I am still missing (five Flash ones and two from Beam Ball?) before resuming with Dungeoneers. I still have time left to decide, as I must finish Far Orion first.

silk cave
#

just assumed cache but cookies makes more sense, wasn’t sure either way πŸ˜” i would definitely recommend beam ball that shit is funnn

#

imp wasn’t too bad either, i just tried to match my level scores to friends who already got it lol

frank aurora
#

Oh wow, my memory suddenly became performant!

tall carbon
#

oh music games are cool xd

frank aurora
#

πŸ˜’

#

I suck at them.

silk cave
#

typing ninja hunter was real fun in a not fun at all way too 😌

frank aurora
#

On the other hand, after years suffering with idle and "merge" blerghs.... Hell yeah! Music games are damn funny!

#

I type too slowly for that one haha. Moreover, I stayed years with a broken keyboard so I had to put it on a hiatus haha.

silk cave
#

my saves randomly decided to start workinggg as long as i can handle how terrible the new site is i can get right back into badgehunting lol

#

anyone been able to get badge master to work anytime recently tho? it either plops me in an infinite loading screen or says the badges.json file is just gone

silk cave
#

scores/api not updating πŸ˜” considering all the issues recently i feel like it's probably more a new update issue but still

frank aurora
#

Did it load with Flash? (Just making sure that it did not accidentally load with Ruffle)

silk cave
#

pretty sure, and it still actually gets the data down ingame, it just doesn't seem to submit properly

frank aurora
#

Also, no, Badge Master is broken for good I believe. For a long while it was refusing to load with my account but I could get it to load unlogged (maybe beause of a badge I had?). From then, I could load my own data since Badge Master allowed that. However, later the bug started affecting the unlogged version too. Maybe one of the files is too big?

#

I will check Viricide by the end of the hour.

#

Could I have the link, please?

silk cave
#

damn, i'm gonna miss having it, it was so useful for tracking shit nd i can't even load the achievements page on pale moon bc it's such a mess

#

okay wait

#

nvm forgot i submitted a badge request lol still not updating

frank aurora
silk cave
#

i did try the first two, i just wish i could remove the broken/new badges from view so i wouldn't keep getting mixed up with what i could and couldn't do πŸ˜”

#

still, better than nothing (or anything kong itself can do) lol

frank aurora
#

Eh, yeah.

frank aurora
#

Hmm... That is interesting. I do not remember such a case in my not-that-rich stock of statistics submission investigations.
The game did submit the scores... but the servers did not reply anything.

silk cave
#

that is weird, another issue to add onto the pile with this updateee

#

at least i assume it's the update since this is a new issue and they already somehow messed up with giving people random scores on the leaderboards

frank aurora
#

I think so, too. I tried another game and the same happened. It submitted but no response from the servers.

#

Me no like that. Γ¨_Γ©

#

Reporting that for Flash games would be hopeless so I hope that this will get fixed alongside something else...

silk cave
#

achievement screenshots look a lot less pretty but damn that was annoying, really didn't help it would eat my inputs half the time but at least it didn't take too long

frank aurora
#

Beurk, I would not want that in a screenshot. They ruined that too. πŸ™

frank aurora
#

I checked yesterday but despite some leaderboard issues being fixed, Flash games were still unable to submit statistics properly. This mean that they would have to target Flash games specifically... so we might have a very serious problem here. I will try to show Adrian my cutest kitty face tomorrow but I am not confident.

frank aurora
#

Nevermind. Progress and leaderboard on Idle Wizard did not update, even after refreshing... Did they fix something or not?! I am lsot. Help. I am losing my mind. No TV and no beer make Homer go crazy. 😭

frank aurora
#

They updated after second refresh...

silk cave
#

it’s been weirddd, it’s hard to tell what’s

  1. originally broken when added
  2. broken from the redesign
  3. broken from the other redesign
  4. not loading bc of connection issues
  5. just slow/needs a syncing up with the servers
#

it’s okay though, because soon they’ll all stop working and it won’t matter anymore lol

frank aurora
#

Yeah... πŸ˜”

frank aurora
#

Ah. After checking, no, they did not fix the badge progress not updating. They probably only took care of the non leaderboard statistics that were being displayed.

silk cave
#

I'M GETTING FLASH BADGES AGAIN

#

it takes like forever for it to actually go through tho

#

it seems like maybe they just messed up the servers entirely bc even with games like mighty party or the ones you mentioned it similarly took a longgg time to work

silk cave
#

tried a ton of things out for ragdoll achievements 2 but i couldn't get it to do the same. maybe it's just specific games that either work or don't work idk

frank aurora
#

Do you know how to search for the URL of the game SWF, in the developer tools? If so, I would like to know if either the games that work or do not work are the ones that load inside /flash/GameShell.swf

I am not sure what that would mean but that would be a start of some investigations...

#

Completely breaking their servers is definitely something that they can do, though.

silk cave
#

i do not πŸ˜” i could try if it's not too difficult
if you'd wanna try for yourself tho the only one i've gotten to work is castaway, everything else (viricide, synapsis 2, ragdoll achievements 2, hands of war 3) hasn't worked yet

frank aurora
#

It is very easy:

  1. Right-click on the page but outside the game area.
  2. Click "inspect element" or "inspect" (something like that).
  3. Once the thing has loaded, find its search bar and search for true_swf_location
  4. If the result is not neatly formatted, double-click it so it is easier to read.
  5. Check weither swf_location is set to GameShell.swf or, instead, has the same value as true_swf_location (the exact URL does not matter):
silk cave
#

seems like the ones that work have the /flash/GameShell.swf segment, everything else i tested matches the true variable (so far)

frank aurora
#

Hmm... Okay, thank you. This may be related to another API update, then. The API file for those that do not work was updated to work with Ruffle a few weeks ago (without anything breaking, I checked). Could they have gone further with those games? I will need to check.

frank aurora
#

The little magic tricks I tried failed and I got weird - yet different - results for both types of games. Nonetheless, we seem to have properly identified the affected games. Not that this will matter since I am not Kongregate, haha.

silk cave
#

i missed one boss i forgot to scan and didn't do the final boss on epic bc the grind would've taken forever but finally finished with ebf4 woooo

#

a lil annoyed at how many medals are just straight up unattainable without paying extra bc it feels like they're just there to taunt me but i'll live πŸ˜”

frank aurora
#

I wish premium content was reactivated on Flash games, so I could use those hundreds of free kreds I earned on those stupid Discord events, on games that are worth it!

#

The Epic Battle Fantasy and Gemcraft sagas come to mind. What else? Hmm... my brain will stop here.

frank aurora
#

I have been tempted for weeks now to spend ten of my hard earned free kreds on Far Orion to get unlimited raids (battle auto-completion). I am getting weak... πŸ˜”

tall carbon
#

I mean yeah use them

#

unless you wanna use them for dungeoneers

frank aurora
#

I want to use them on worthy games... if this ever becomes possible again.

#

I have 651 kreds, though. I would still have enough, I guess...

#

Gah, my mind shall not bend! I am strong!
-# I am strong! 😭

frank aurora
#

The ground is so slippery today that it made me nostalgic of Vertigo: Gravity Llama... ._.

frank aurora
#

Incremental Epic Hero 2 apparently refused to save several hours of progress that resulted in some notable unlocks. I had luckily exported my save file right after this, as I do everyday, but that stupid game refuses to load it. 😭

frank aurora
#

Okay... this is ridiculous. It turns out that the missing hours are also missing from the exported save file. The game was running but it decided to stop recording what was happening. I do not know who coded that but they may be working at Kongregate now... I am sincerely and utterly upset.

tall carbon
#

that happened to me as well at some point

#

maybe if there was a green plug to tell..

frank aurora
#

It saves locally, not online, so that would not matter.

#

Anyway, things are worse than expected: it is now impossible for me to save any new progress. The bug seems to have been saved into that damn file and unfortunately, I overwrote the previous exported save file, not expecting something like that to happen...

#

There is no way I restart from scratch. NO WAY.

#

Ugh, I still have a save file from thirteen days prior but I made a huge progress in two weeks. I do not want to start from there.

frank aurora
#

Well, I just reported the issue to them on their official Discord server, and here is their official answer...

unfortunately it sounds like you may have hit the limit on what the kong version will allow you to progress
this is not something that we are able to fix as its a hard limitation from webgl around saves, and is why we have had to stop any development progression with the kong or any browser version as we have not been able to find a way to work around that. the only thing i would be able to suggest would be moving to the steam version instead, as even if your issue is something else (although i doubt it) it wouldnt be long before you did hit this

#

*%@Γ©#$%&!

tall carbon
#

Perfect

frank aurora
#

I only have nine garbadges out of twenty-six.

#

I cannot express how angry I am... and I would rather not.

tall carbon
#

State of art technology

frank aurora
#

I will eventually finish the other two idle blerghs, but that one will remain as it is... Eh. I guess that I will just submit fake statistics to the server manually... I have reached my limits, like that redacted game.

frank aurora
#

Okay... Do you know what happened RIGHT after I typed this? The "cache save" countdown... started working again...

frank aurora
#

I am almost back to where I was yesterday... and for now the game is still saving. I have no clue about what happened but the fart is gone now.

frank aurora
#

Nevermind. This happened again when I unlocked new areas. sigh
I will see what I can do without them. Maybe I can still succeed.

silk cave
#

only (basically) one rank leftttt

#

definitely kicking myself for not just putting that little bit of extra daily effort in tho i could've been done by now πŸ˜”

frank aurora
#

I feel you and the path is still long. 😩

grim granite
#

a

frank aurora
#

No.

silk cave
#

now it's just finishing all the battles in raid heroes and i'm done with that game

#

still no idea how you could do 100mil without losing a part of your soul, and i used a macro lol

frank aurora
#

He did lose his soul. He sold it for an autoclicker.

#

Which is apparently a terrible offense in Russia...

tall carbon
silk cave
#

fair enough, i think if i do get banned ill consider it a badge of honor though lol

#

also jeez that music is grating, i muted it so fast I never realized they just loop it after 15 seconds wtf

frank aurora
#

To assemble my team, I followed a comment on Far Orion from someone who earned the impossible garbadges. I am starting to wonder if I am not slower than I should... Farming the required items to upgrade the heroes takes too much time so changing would be hard.

#

I meant slower regarding mission progress. Arena is... well, slow as hell, but that is by design haha. Why did they have to make the amount of points per win decrease as points increase?!

tall carbon
#

everything is made so that you buy buy buy

silk cave
#

doing the same thing here, up to rank 6 on everyone but it's taken so long lol

frank aurora
#

I have Preston at level 7 and rank 4, Ariadne at level 6 and rank 3, and finally Saafir at level 5 and almost rank 4.
Levelling them up was funny at the beginning but it has become a chore.

silk cave
#

currently rank 6 on krakhs/ates/saafir, but i'm supposed to get saafir's cursing form and the nonchalance card when i can so i'm hoping that speeds things up eventually
also think i'm only at level 3 on each of them, not sure how to rlly go faster with that/get more shards πŸ˜”

frank aurora
#

I mixed up rank and level, I believe...

#

That cursing form is expensive. I also hope to get a big speed boost when I can finally afford it.

#

3939/8000... Still a long way to go.

silk cave
#

i still have to wait to get to level 50 😭 tho luckily i'm already done with the material requirements

#

also only just now realizing there's a bunch of random possibly useful stuff in the dwelling i should've been exploiting ugh

frank aurora
#

Me too but I will get there before having enough shape currency haha.

#

Dwelling is useful, yes.

frank aurora
#

Pff. My save file on Incremental Epic Hero 2 became too big earlier than planned and this forced me to rush the requirements to my second world ascension. Those requirements being harder each time, I will probably not be able to keep up for much longer. I am disgusted.

frank aurora
#

On the bright side, Idle Wizard is progressing steadily. In the worst case (no longer being able to improve memories per realm change, which is doubtful), I would be done in three months.

... "Steadily." God damn it, three more months and I am acting as if everything was fine. What did they turn me into?!

frank aurora

Oh please, go spam your nonsense somewhere else, all of you. This thread is for adults. And I.

silk cave
#

got to level 50 in far orion, tho i can't really notice much of a difference now having the new form/the nonchalance card, ig the grind will continue lol

frank aurora
#

Aw. πŸ™

#

I should have enough shape currency in three days. I hope that I will at least be able to beat the last few missions needed.

frank aurora
#

Wow, this unexpectedly appeared!

frank aurora
#

Meh. That cursing Saafir is indeed disappointing, regarding missions at least.

frank aurora
#

@silk cave
I found a way to fix the Flash games that broke two months ago... but ironically, at the moment Ruffle is the only option and my user script (version 11.1) must be used with a second user script, which, prior to these events... was no longer needed for those games! 😭

#

That is better than nothing. I go back to this every one ine a while, in hope to find something that I missed and that is actually missing from my user script (due to a Kongregate update, of course). Unfortunately, I may have already readded everything that previously disappeared... Sigh... Why is it so hard to fix their mess?

silk cave
#

it's okay, at a certain point you'll just have to recreate the entire site, and then your mission will be complete πŸ™

frank aurora
#

That would actually be the easiest option. unamusedKong

frank aurora
#

Ahem... Well, actually I fixed them for good in version 11.4 (unless I messed up copy/pasting, which happens a lot more often than it should...)
This was easy to do... but I had to decompile the API file (which I do not like since I do not know any Actionscript and I know nothing in game programming in general), open various windows to check everything and blablabla... This gave me a headache.

Anyway, everything works as before.

silk cave
#

all hail πŸ™‡πŸ™‡πŸ™‡

#

i really thought it would just be forever broken or really annoying to do lol, hopefully the next time they mess with the site they don’t touch anything important

frank aurora
#

Actually, this is related to the necessary changes to make the API works with Ruffle (without needing to use a second user script...). Basically, two functions were missing but I had checked that the updated version of the API file worked fine at the beginning of the very same week that you reported the issue... In other words, half of their changes (WHICH FOR ONCE WERE WELL MADE!!!) vanished for no apparent reason a few weeks after implementing them. Well, actually, I may have just given the reason: the changes were fine so they could not let them this way haha.

humble cobalt
#

6 months later... It has been 13 months since I play Idling to Rule the Gods daily and I just started killing UBv4 today. Killed the first two easily (one shot) on my way for the third. Maybe I'll be done today?

#

Will be frustrating to stop the game after so much investment. Sunk cost fallacy (with nothing to earn from it though)

humble cobalt
#

Got destroyed by the third UBv4, still some work to do πŸ˜…

frank aurora
#

I could have told you. If I recall correctly, it also went fast for the first few (two? three?) then joy was replaced with despair...

#

However and fortunately for you, you seem to be faster than I was!
Aaah, the joy of understanding how the hell a game works. πŸ˜‚

humble cobalt
#

I'm doing an AAC (the challenge that last like 3 days, they "nerfed" it btw, you just need 25 instead of 50 now!), sooooo maybe.

frank aurora
#

"AAC"?

humble cobalt
#

UBv4 grow weaker the longer a rebirth lasts

#

All Achievements Challenge

frank aurora
#

πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

humble cobalt
#

6 months idling-free, you forgot πŸ˜‰

frank aurora
#

I did not do many challenges...

#

That one does not ring any bell at all.

humble cobalt
#

I'm tempted to buy premium on Dungeoneer to support the dev and do the badge MUCH faster.
But dev hasn't updated the game for years and achievements are broken, that doesn't encourage me

humble cobalt
tall carbon
#

the hard badge is 10x longer than the impossible

humble cobalt
frank aurora
#

I was busy with the ones for the requirements!

humble cobalt
frank aurora
#

I finally got the last mission garbadge in Far Onion. Now I can try to push in arena... but it has been very hard to progress. I basically get a loss for a win.

humble cobalt
#

If it can bleed, I can kill it!
It doesn't regen, goes weaker as my current rebirth lasts, I grow stronger... I'll have the badge tomorrow (after 13 months and a day!)

frank aurora
#

Aaaaah, you beat the snail by more than a whole year! Kongratz!

humble cobalt
#

They kinda ruined the achievement interface but done!

frank aurora
#

Indeed. I wish there was a computer wizard out there willing to restore the old interface with a user script (or even a browser extension), or at least some parts of it. πŸ˜”

#

What will be your next target?

humble cobalt
#

Probably the Dungeoneer "hard" badge

#

STUG impossible badge at some point too. Should also grind the "impossible" Armygrid badge which is a mild endurance badge

#

unearned by latest. Fable IV should be a nice game but the 45 minutes badge probably involves a lot of RNG

frank aurora
#

Bah, the Armygrind one was very tedious, as opposed to the others.
As for Rogue Fable IV, I suck at speedrunning so I would need a massive load of luck haha.

#

I forgot about STUG but there was a game mode that greatly sped up earning of some garbadges.

humble cobalt
#

Armygrid is boring but made easier by season reset. After a reset you can easily get a few thousands fields in a couple hours. It's a terrible game but not the worse badge to acquire

#

STUG should be done when BotD I guess. More newbies! But maybe there aren't much badge hunters left

#

broken badge on monday last week barely made a few comments

frank aurora
#

There are not many PLAYERS left...

humble cobalt
#

No idea what he's doing, but there's a speedrun under 10 minutes for Fable IV πŸ˜„
So 45' should be easy!
You can actually make a seeded game without the "rogue" part, it doesn't say it prevents from getting badges

That's on version 0.25 though (alpha)

frank aurora
#

What is a seeded game? I have not played it for a while.

#

Also, I will definitely never be as fast as this entity!

humble cobalt
#

"seeded" game is a game where you pick the seed for the RNG. So you can play the same gave over and over. Same enemies, same loots (even with different behavior).

frank aurora
#

Ah, okay. I did not know this meaning. Hmm... then I would prefer leaving it to luck. Where would the fun be, otherwise?

frank aurora
#

Damn, I get more or less one win for one loss in Far Onion's arena because I keep meeting people who can basically oneshot each of my heroes. 3130/4000... 😭

frank aurora
#

Aaand Idle Wizard finished! Only two idle blerghs left!
It only took three months and a half between the medium and the hard garbadge, then seven more months for the impossible one... I do not know how long the medium one took, however, since I took a break before it.

For the record, here is my realm change history, in case someone wants a rough idea of how a snail progressed on that game (most recent is at the top, ignore time spent before the first one):

#

Since I am blocked by stronger opponents in Far Onion, I guess that I can finally get back to SCGMD4!

frank aurora

Just wanted to pop in that im not 100% happy with the changes that occurred with Kong while i was gone

The profiles are wonderful, a perfect illustration of what their redesign truly is: every single part of them is broken.
Regarding that specific matter, they even removed (or rather, forgot to put them back in) two tabs: kongpanions and items/cards. That is so depressing.

I don't know how long it took, maybe 7 hours or so, but I made an Excel spreadsheet of all 1200 of my missing badges. I categorized it by genre, and sub-categorized after that by Obtainable and Unobtainable badges, with names of the game, then the badge names, and difficulty afterward. If anyone is interested in seeing the list of obtainable and unobtainable badges, I could link it.

Ugh, that must have been tedious and tiring! I am glad that I am not missing 1,200 badges. πŸ˜‚

Well, I was able to do more world ascensions in Incremental Epic Hero 2 than I initially thought. I could push to eight if I played it well but that would not give me any more garbadge, unless I let my computer running for days or weeks (which is not happening while I am alive), and hoping that the browser would not crash (which cannot be expected)!
Now, my completionism side tempts me to try the Steam version. I did not want to make an account somewhere else and things are worse because I need to download the thing on top of that... I will only go this way if I can keep playing from where I am, though.
Does anyone here have a Steam account and would be willing to check for me weither or not an exported Kongregate save file can be imported on the Steam version of the game?

#

I can send you mine if you do not have one yourself.

if i remember right when i tried the steam version i couldn't transfer the kong file since it was heavily outdated, but it might be possible. ik you can transfer steam to kongregate though, it just doesn't actually track badges and it kinda breaks the game lol

frank aurora
#

Damn it...

#

The other way around would not have been an issue as in the worst case, I would have manually submitted my progress to the score servers.

I will not bother with that if I am forced to start from scratch, ugh.

frank aurora
#

Well, even the developer could not fix the problem... πŸ˜‚ 😭 πŸ˜‚ 😭
He gave me a fresh save file with more than 200,000 epic coins instead (which is clearly the most important part, as it comes from daily quests than I did again and again and again...). I could not buy everything back, but I got back most. I still have to grind for everything else, though... heroes' title quests, pets, equipment...
It is supposed to be much faster on Steam than on Kongregate. Let us see if I am able not to give up...

I LOST ABOUT 500 ARENA POINTS IN FAR ORION

#

500

#

They vanished without any apparent reason!

This never happened before.

#

as it turns out i never actually switched to the cursing form of saafir in far orion and now i'm steamrolling past missions/opponents no wonder i was stuck in a rut 😭

#

finding new ways to uneven the playing field πŸ’ͺ

frank aurora
#

I did switch to it after buying it but I did not notice a huge power increase back then.

#

I feel like I should change heroes but I have already invested so much into them...

#

Especially Preston's first shape, for the health bonus. I am above 70/90.

Arsenal whatever is BOTD, I wanted to go for hard badge but I somehow lost my save. Got the medium badge in january

so close i can taste itttt, it shouldn't have taken me nearly this long but still at least i barely had to pay attention to it lol

tall carbon
#

xd

Also, I thought that Arsenal Online saved online. Well, at least it is not that long, if I remember correctly.

the pay to unlock islands version of them!

#

appears as tho stuff starts breaking once you get close to it but just skipping time worked and i'm doneee

#

honestly probably should've skipped a lot more bc i had like weeks nd weeks of it combined but it's all good 😭

frank aurora
#

I had a lot of timeskips left, too, when I finished.

#

Only missing the impossible badge on Mergest Kingdom and I aaaaam, well, level 14/35 required. lol

frank aurora
#

Absolutely not! Pictures and item names are different...

frank aurora
#

3808/4000... If I am lucky enough to keep getting at least one more win than losses each day, then I will get that last garbadge before Far Orion lowers my score again.
Something tells me that this will not be that easy... I should maybe try to spend a few hours on that arena so I am done earlier? That could backlash, though...

#

How far are you, Trisolis?

frank aurora
#

Excuse me?

silk cave
#

oh it's from the same guy as armygrid that

#

idk if it bodes well or not actually

silk cave
#

i actually don't think this is going to be too bad, but 1500 achievements worry me especially since i'm noticing a lot of chess openings and idk how the bot responds when you're trying to go for smth complex-ish
just for reference there's: 260 1-3 move opening achievements, 145 5 move, 434(??) 7 move, 51 basics, 32 'collections' for 922 total which doesn't seem right at all but maybe they count other stuff as achievements? 3 people have >1000 so maybe you can re-earn them or smth

frank aurora
#

What game are you typing about?

silk cave
#

newest badged game apochess, it's not too bad just honestly kinda boring/a lil confusing

frank aurora
#

Oh, no... They add new ones again?! sigh

tall carbon
#

whatever you just have to repeat the same thing over and over again for hours until the opponent plays the move YOU want, which could never happen depending on the difficulty, and there are millions of difficulties. And then you have to re-do the same thing 2-3-4-5-10 or even 500 times

#

I'm done thanks, these impossible badges makes no sense

#

unless the achievements works in online game but it doesn't seem to be the case

frank aurora
#

They did not learn their lesson, I guess. That was probably to be expected. πŸ˜”

Today, I tried getting closer to the impossible garbadge of Far Orion. My highest score was 3951 (out of the 4000 points that are required). After twenty-six victories (according to the in-game leader board), my current score is 3885...

Objective... failed? Γ©_Γ¨

#

3863...

#

Slowly digging to China.

tall carbon
#

remember it was set to 6000 up until I sent emails to all the CEOs for weeks lol

frank aurora
#

Do not worry, I am not forgetting that any time soon!

tall carbon
#

can u guys print a list of all the 7 moves in the achievements? I don't want to di it manually 😭 I created a tool to help finding lines but I need a list of the achievements

tall carbon
#

needs this on same folder

tall carbon
#

Unfortunate, 7 Moves achievements are capped to 10 levels per achievement

#

Otherwise we could've just farmed the easiest ones, pd2d4 pd7d5 pe2e4 pd5e4 Ng1f3 pe4f3 Qd1f3 on any "Normal" difficulty, because black is scripted to always capture if he can, so with this specific combo it had 2 forced captures and only depended on the first move from black.

#

hot damn you're moving fast, i stop checking for 3 days and you've gotten 6x the achievements/power i have 😭 i'll have to find some time to catch up smh

Apochess looks entertaining but it is laggy. Also, what a shame that it is so small that it must be played in full screen mode!
