Come on, who the hell has the time to downvote all the reviews...and why do it?It's just too wierd...

I don't know why the author would waste his time doing that. As someone mentioned before, it's just how the general census are reacting to the onslaught of, not necessarily bad reviews, but reviews that are criticizing the game. Yet I see hundreds of "reviews" that last two lines with praise about the game and it's author, nothing constructive, not even a review by it's definition. Those are the reviews that are "helpful". These reviews also pop-up in places when well known authors like Egoraptor, HotDiggedyDemon, HappyHarry, etc. make an animation.

Ever notice that the longer reviews that are constructive, share insight, etc. on those animations are normally the "useless" ones?

Just an example, it happens alot.

To keep this irrelevant rant on-topic: I gave up on the 'gun game', repetitive and boring imo. I may go back to it at some point, but not now.

Can be anything that down votes reviews, to be honest I've seen people that see one bad review they dislike then they'll go on the persons profile and down vote pretty much every review they've made, it gets annoying too.

When logging my stats last week it said I had a review deleted. I hadn't even left a review in over a week. That caught me off guard.

Also, turns out leaving the gun game on the level selection screen overnight isn't enough to build up your play time, so now I'm leaving it in a level while I work out. We'll see what happens.

When a flash/audio gets deleted, all reviews get deleted as well. If you do not recieve a PM from M-Bot telling you one of your reviews was deleted, than the whole submission (and all of the reviews as well) has been deleted by either an admin or the author.

What really need to do, is use the first shot you get to pin together the three boxes below the green one, then use your recoil from your shot to bounce it toward the green platform (I find that moving your rifle while you fire, gives somewhat more power)

I got the TX-15 medal by beating the game with no deaths and using 6 syringes. No idea what the secret one is, but I know several things it isn't. Of course we're not supposed to discuss them here...

Try varying your gun height. Pixels matter.

This game is kind of creepy the first time through with the volume pretty high up in the dark.

So, I used the video walkthrough of Fig. 8 to get the 500x multiplier, ended up with over 1m points, but got the Explorer medal again instead of Professional. This causes me rage. Do I really need to beat the game twice in the same sitting in order to get it?

In other news, speaking of Fig. 8, here's some dude getting 12,000,000+ points on it.

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPrAEkExN Bk

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4q4OMTdO oo&feature=related

It has some interesting route variations on it that look easier.

I thought professional didn't work.

I thought it was perfectionist that didn't work and professional did? If you're right, I just spent 2 hours on something that I should have taken 20 minutes on (500x medal), and the only one I should feel rage toward is myself.

Indeed you are correct. I've sent the author a message suggesting that rather than necessarily fixing the broken medal, he just add a check when starting up the game so that if any of the scores to be displayed are > 1000000 the medal is sent in. We'll see if anything comes of it. Who knows, maybe if he decides to implement that workaround, he'll think to add the same code when redisplaying the scores after you finish going around. I'm not holding my breath for either of them though.

Read the walkthrough alex. You need to get the bag of flour, weigh it until it weighs 1.2 kgs, then put it on the thing you remove. That way you have infinite time and the ceiling with not crush you.

I will never get to level 6 because I don't want a black hand as my avatar. Is that racist?

Well it's 360 degrees, so each little dash is equal to 10 degrees, so for exampl if you need to move the red hand to the 120 mark, you click and drag it to 3 lines after the 90 mark.

And that too, I didn't realize you said in time. Yea you have to put the flour bag on it before you put the hands hahahaha.

Sorry for hurrying up too much.

But yea just follow the damn walkthrough.

On another note....TRYING to stay on topic....That new game Inculcation is very very creepy and I seem to be having a hard time with the medals. Maybe its cause the game has been open for about 45 minutes while I watched House.....Meh XD

I hate you.

And yea, since the game grade you get is based on the time it takes you to finish it... That MIGHT NOT HELP.

Just sayin.
