The "Destroyed Challenge Mode" didn't activate for me
coczero 11 Jul 2015 19:40
Hey, sorry I didnt see your comment till now. I fixed the achievement and also gave you the achievement! Thanks for reporting :)
Hawkrex 12 Jul 2015 13:56
Nice thanks :)

I got "destroyed round clear mode" but i haven't finished it yet. I got it when i had 1000 in challenge mode and unlocked insane speed for challenge mode.
coczero 14 Aug 2015 21:01
Hi, thanks for reporting. I fixed it :)

thanks :)

"Insane" difficulty for Round Clear mode really is insane. I cleared 30 levels so far, and still have 20 levels to go. Help me
Kutal 24 Nov 2015 15:40
By the way, i got "Game completed" achievement while playing RC mode on Very Hard. It's was in the middle of the playthrough.

'Destroyed Round Clear' broke for me. Awarded as soon as I booted the game for the first time.
AuraOfTheDawn 29 Nov 2015 06:39
'Game Complete' similarly unlocked at the wrong time, after I cleared challenge (unlocking insane on it), and then time attack (doing the same), I got game complete. Despite not having touched round clear, and not having beaten anything on insane.

I got the 'Game Complete' achievement without finishing round clear on insane.
Sarconius 3 Jan 2019 01:19
The "Game Completed" achievement unlocked for me upon finishing "Time Attack - Hard." I had already completed round clear and challenge mode, but had yet to complete Time Attack Very Hard, Super Hard, or Insane.

While mGBA has received support for GB/GBC achievements, I recommend not using it for this game at this time. It doesn't appear to be compatible.
Juliushuber 12 Sep 2020 20:38
Mastered! No problems playing on Retroarch (core: Gambatte)
KickMeElmo 12 Sep 2020 21:53
Oh, I forgot to update. The issue with mGBA was fixed. Just make sure your core is up to date. Should be fully compatible with Gambatte, Gearboy, Sameboy, mGBA, VBA-M, and Mesen-S now.

Mastered!

Haven't played this since the original release, but I remember a trick for the hardest difficulties: Hammer A and move back and forth as rapidly as you can. At higher difficulties the AI prioritizes blocking you from making matches. As a result, just rapidly switching blocks will counter the counters and make matches left and right. I was able to max out the score counter in the original with this method.

Absolute banger of a puzzle game, a must-play.

Mastered and very fun. Short and sweet.

This was one of my very first gameboy games and my sole companion for a long road trip. I still get a sort of pavlovian psychosomatic motion sickness anxiety from the music. :'D

Still, a cozy and nostalgic lil master for me!

For whatever reason my brain would always read the hamsters as melty marshmallows and the owls as lumpy bear faces... then I'd get to one of the lil mini cutscenes, go "oh yeah!", and then immediately forget that they weren't melty marshmallows and lumpy bears two seconds later.
