![]() | Kasumariii 27 Oct 2014 16:10 "Beat the game" fixed | ||
![]() | Rimitto 30 Sep 2015 16:31 pls no "beat the entire game with getting max bonus lives and without using a single powerup twice in a row" achievement | ||
![]() | jerkwad152 5 Oct 2015 10:23 Bonus I and III are broken. Tried several times with different roms. | ||
![]() | Salsa 5 Oct 2015 12:57 Fixed them. | ||
![]() | jerkwad152 5 Oct 2015 13:53 Thanks, that got it. :3 | ||
![]() | infpgamer 18 Oct 2015 16:28 I got "Destroy them All Again" after only beating the 1st loop. Also I destroy all Tentacles in Stage 1 several tries but it didn't pop. | ||
![]() | Salsa 18 Oct 2015 21:12 Thanks for pointing these two. "Destroy Them All Again" is now fixed. I've reduced requirements for "Tentacle Extermination" to 6 tentacles. | ||
![]() | TailsMK4 17 Dec 2015 17:37 I sent a report on this one last night, but Combat achievement doesn't trigger for me despite beating Stage 5 three times, once on the second loop. All the other Stages unlocked first beat for me on the first loop. | ||
![]() | TailsMK4 14 Jan 2016 21:35 Since the last time I posted, I have since become a developer...so I decided to tackle that achievement. It is fixed now, so people completing Stage 5 should now get an achievement for it. | ||
![]() | TailsMK4 14 Jan 2016 21:35 Also, since all of the achievement titles for the stages are based off of the songs of each stage, I have changed the name of Stage 5's to Thunderbolt since that's the title of the song played during that stage. | ||
![]() | Salsa 15 Jan 2016 11:28 Don't remember if I left two of hit values at 0, but such situation might also cause an achievement not to unlock (whe you have more than one counting req, and you leave one of their hits at 0). | ||
![]() | Salsa 15 Jan 2016 11:34 Although, the reason this achievement wasn't unlocking was 0x00fb address, which acted different at this this particular stage. I recall adding "boss" into its note. | ||
![]() | Salsa 15 Jan 2016 11:40 I've edited the code until it unlocked for me in local - I'm always doing this. Sometimes I forgot to save the changes, and that sometimes happen, cause after saving all edited achievements, their font don't change the color from red to black. | ||
![]() | Salsa 15 Jan 2016 11:43 In unofficial this works properly. About the name of the song - like I've said before, I've misplaced the title of the piece from arcade version of Life Force (western version of Salamander, which have also some difference in OST tracklist). | ||
![]() | speedneedle 21 Apr 2017 08:21 Received the "Peace Again" achievement after beating Stage 4 on the second loop. Don't know if it matters, but my last death was in the fast corridor in stage 6 (first loop). Perhaps a stage count error based around looping? | ||
![]() | Hate 4 Aug 2017 21:01 Achivs Unlock in Demonstration game. -.-' | ||
![]() | TailsMK4 31 Oct 2017 04:25 They may need further revision, but I added another condition to the Power-Up achievements so that you have to be in-game for them to trigger. They should no longer trigger while the game is in demo mode. | ||
![]() | bubufubu 11 Apr 2021 10:50 This needs a leader board for score. | ||
![]() | redmelon424 16 Jul 2022 01:00 There's another 5k point bonus in stage 1 -- on the top of the screen, right after the twin blue and orange wormy guys near the beginning, at the background transition | ||
![]() | Cassievania 23 Dec 2022 00:19 For those wondering, yes, the Konami code is allowed for every achievement except "Crook or Fair." |
