Just looked at the list, didn't realize CF2 was already done...
oh well.

I started playing Alien Crush.  Is it possible to beat that game? Google searches said that something happens if you get 999,999,990 points, but that just seems obscene since I played on game for two hours and got to like 30,000,000.

The story is well-worth it. Screw this thread, you experienced Pico and company on a truly epic adventure.  :pcgs:.

Sorry I haven't updated the list, I've been at my brothers wedding the past week, will get on it shortly.

I'm still making a run at Alien Crush, it just takes so damn long.  There is a tendency to get bored of playing after like 2-3 hours straight.

Go for it!  You can do it!

Good luck, my friend. You have the stamina. Now take some amphetamines at the ~1.5 hour mark and you'll be fine. :pcgs:

I don't condone cheating, but for games like this, emulators with save states can be your best friend. Especially if you don't have the time to devote to such endeavors. Of course pausing the console works too, but I for one don't like leaving a system on for extended periods when not being used.

Whoever clears Boxy Boy is a beast!

Haha i'm working on that game...for the past 20 years.  I don't know if it's ever going to happen.  :|

khog143

I was just pausing the game (Alien Crush) and had played a pretty long time, about 6-7 hours devoted to it.  Then we had a big storm last weekend and the power went out...needless to say certain words were said in regards to that.

I bet it's the last game to get cleared

Boxyboy is definitely a big one with 250 levels according to what I have read.  I'm up to level 79 and I have lost count of how many hours I have put into the game over the past few weeks since I started. I doubt I'll get through all of it.

we'd almost have to start a separate thread just for boxy boy and have a pcefx group clear, share the password lol. Yeah I usually get to level 15 and I'm sick of it. I also noticed they changed the music and some stuff with the US version . The PCE version has some really chill puzzle music.

And once you beat the first 255 levels, you can enter a code for expert mode.  That's how you really clear it.  :twisted:

I can also do Camp California. I will start conquering these and more today. :D I'll probably take Silent Debuggers first, since most people hate it. :)

I took more shots but some of them would give away the ending so I kept them out to prevent spoilers.

Silent Debuggers is a great and easy game. I finished it many many times.

Still need to finish it without losing a single block !

roflmao

Is anyone currently working on Final Lap Twin or Order of the Griffon?  I've started both of those since this thread began and would love to contribute to this list. :P

reno5

I do not have any screen shot as i've just discovered this tread but heres the TG16 games i've finished over the years all on the TG16, no emulation and no save state as i guess some would be way easier to conquer with save state:

Bonk's Adventure
Cyber Core
Impossamole
Keith Courage
Neutopia
Neutopia II
Silent Debuggers
Victory Run

I'm curently trying to beat SideArms and Gate of Thunder.

I've documented clearing the quest mode in Final Lap Twin, does that count?

wayback.frozenutopia.com/final_lap_twin.html

I'm currently playing through Vasteel (as Fallial, since he can use the Reaper in later maps, and that thing pwns all)... currently at Nickeeyu 1... took the "hard" routes each time.

reno5: if you don't lose a block, you can't get the Jump Unit... I deliberately lose one non-essential block just to get it (usually D). B, C, and G are the ones you really have to protect... especially C.

I thought we were trying to complete these games from the time this thread was started?  I've beaten Final Lap Twin a couple of times in the past, but only recently started it up again.

Correct. If we counted every game we have ever cleared, then this thread would have been done in like 6 posts.

Well then only count Silent Debuggers in my case ! Beaten the other one in my previous collection before selling everything and buying it back this year

Sorry dude Rover already beat you to it

I'm almost finished with Vasteel... just entered Laysark, which is the second-to-last campaign. I will likely finish tonight or tomorrow... seven maps left to conquer in total.

Go right ahead, no ones called either of those games

Now on Jaroa 2. Looks like it'll be beaten tonight. :)

Dear god Rover, you're an animal! I'll try too contribute soon, but I've got Cross Country practice starting next week and a fewer and fewer games in my collection that haven't been beaten

OldRover

Camp California: conquered.

I took about a hundred pics to do up a quick lil strategy guide thingo for the forum... it'll take awhile to crop out that many pics but I'll get right on it. I turned the flash off so I could get clearer pics this time.

How does one "complete" Sim Earth? Completing every scenario? Or maybe just the hard ones (Mars, Venus)?

(1) There is a secret life form that can develop (if you are good enough!)

(2) Try to develop a planet controlled by whales (seriously!)

(3) Populate Venus and Mars.

(4) Advanced civilization on Mars!

(5) At the moment the secret life-form is created, NUKE THE PLANET. :pcgs:

Lol sim earth sounds crazy the way you describe it, just beat all the scenarios.

Bardoly

I agree.  Just beat all of the scenarios.

OldRover

Piece of cake, and I know how to do it too.

(2) Try to develop a planet controlled by whales (seriously!)
Also a piece of cake.

(3) Populate Venus and Mars.
Too easy.

(4) Advanced civilization on Mars!
Again, too easy. Mars is way easier than Venus, and Venus isn't even all that hard.

(5) At the moment the secret life-form is created, NUKE THE PLANET.
Oh that's fun. :)

It's the most satisfying thing: to give life and then to abruptly, arbitrarily take it away :pcgs:.
