Nice Backgammon game, but it's WAY too easy. I just played 3 games and crushed the AI like an ant every time with a Backgammon, Win, Backgammon. In the 3 games, it sent me to the bar exactly once. Even though one time it rolled a 4 and a 1 and I had blots 1 and 4 pips away from its backmost pieces and in my home board, it chose to hit neither of them in spite of what a minimal risk it would have made to it and the devastating hit it would have made to me. The setting up of the board 1 piece at a time seems kind of tedious. Surely the game can start with the board already set up? (1/2)
As "calm and relaxing" as playing I Wanna Be The Guy with one hand and Getting Over It with the other. I'm so glad that I FINALLY got the Medium badge on this so I never have to play it again. Thank you, Greg, for making this the FRIDAY badge so I had enough time to get this between sessions of banging my head against the keyboard. If anyone else is having problems with this, check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nAuDnf5JR8 for a walkthrough. 1/5, but sadly too late to prevent it from being badged.
(examines a leaf after waking up) "Everyone needs a little privacy." Is that why you force people to install spyware in the form of tracking cookies in order to play your game? Rated 1/5 for the spyware and the Paypal/Patreon links.
It's just as well that you didn't complete it, Lumin. At the end, all it does is say "TO BE CONTINUED". That's IT?!? Given how much pain and suffering you have to go through to beat this game, I'd think the players deserve a lot more than that. Given the disturbing imagery (someone cutting off his own arm? a puzzle with dog turd? spirit cooking?) and the insane moon logic needed to solve these games, I can't help but think that the programmer is part of some kind of cult.
How to lose this game: 1) Get pizza and pepper 2) Go to Calvin's lab and sewer 3) get crowbar from junk pile, pry open the sewer and enter 4) get slingshot and go up 5) attach slingshot to machine, pull it, enter tube, chat with your uncle 6) go down, get jar from counter, read sign on wall, click on safe then yellow button 7) go up, out, to Nucleus Tower, enter, talk to Gus. 8) Go back to talk to your uncle. Chat not triggered, game unwinnable. Please upvote so the dev will see and hopefully debug.
I've got every single piece in the game and yet I only have 7 complete songs out of 18. Why? How do I fix this? Given this, how did I even get the medium badge to begin with back in 2014? Did the author break the game since then? Finally, why does the picture of Mozart look like a promotion photo of Milo Yiannopoulos?
aaaaaand... a couple of minutes after I posted my comment, I came up with the solution to level 19. Oops... :-/ Here's a REAL hint for it for others who are also struggling with it... 39 and 13 are irrelavant to the solution, so merge those bubbles however you feel like to get them out of the way. The rest of the solution should become clear after that.
Level 18 was reasonable, but level 19 is absolute bullshit. I must have comer up with over 20 ways to come up with 0.75, ending with http://shawalphabetbooks.com/Kongregate/KongregateMergeMathLevel19.png. If this link is extracted, modify www dot shawalphabetbooks dot com slash Kongregate slash KongregateMergeMathLevel19 dot png as needed to see it. Of course, the so-called "hint" about using spacing first was completely useless. I'm done with this game.
Easy badges - 292,972 awarded, Medium badges - 200,086 awarded, Hard badges - 9,560 awarded. Given this ratio, Greg, don't you think the Hard badge should be changed to an Impossible one, especially given that it undertracks your awards?
Came for the medium badge, stayed for nothing. Seriously, who do these POS games keep getting badged, much less made BOTD? No, Criggie, it's not just you. In all the time I've been on Kongregate and forced to play this crap series, not one of them has ever remained in sync for so much as a single song regardless of what hardware I have, including my current *8* core system. The fact that it insults you for its own screwups doesn't help either, nor does the fact that you need to be a freaking octopus to pull off a lot of these songs successfully... IF the game allows you to do so in any case. Whoever makes this series really needs to learn how to tighten the code so that it actually runs properly. Seriously, a 386 shoujld be able to handle this game. Why can't modern day hardware? Answer: crappy programming on the part of the game dev.
Automatic 1/5 for lack of an autosave or a save of any kind for that matter. Seriously, guys, you made this game in 2011, not 1981. Come to think of it, there were even games back then which allowed you to save your progress, back in the days BEFORE hard drives were commercially available. For a game made this late, there's absolutely no excuse.
This game is skipping through all the text before I can read a thing, displaying each screen for what appears to be a single frame before autoadvancing through it, making the game completely unplayable. Browser: Firefox Quantum 63.0.3 64-bit, OS: Windows 8.1 Please fix this.
Gorgeous music and awesome graphics, but there's 3 things that would vastly improve this game... 1) have it play by default instead of us making go through the maze of crap listed in best comments (for those who are having trouble with the "empty bar" part... right click where it lists the microphone hooked up to your computer). 2) don't make the levels so pixel freaking perfect. 3) Have a walkthrough link that actually WORKS!
serioussinger: you'll get the Minesweeper blocks starting at level 14. At level 19, you'll weep with joy at the beauty of the level. Alas, the joy is short lived as the pain comes right back again on level 20.
OK, I just got to level 25... Out of a 90 block map, there's 22 walls and only 8 clue blocks. The type 1 clues are 1, 1 and 2 affecting 3 blocks each and for type 2 clues there's a 1 which affects 2 blocks, 1, 2 and 2 which each affect 10 blocks and a 4 which affects 11 blocks. All of this is surrounded by vast oceans of question marks, the worst part being the bottom 3x10 section which only includes 3 blocks, 1 clue and 26 question marks. There's NO WAY you can expect me to believe that that level's solvable with only pure logic. If you believe that it is, then you better be able to come up with some awesomely extraordinary evidence for your claim and no, whining "there's no need to guess" over and over again ad nauseam is NOT EVIDENCE, nor is a blind assertion that you did it yourself.
