It's actually surprisingly good for a quick time waster EDIT: I also feel kinda sad for getting them all EDIT2: I also feel bad for doing again in 445 seconds |

A game solely about achievements doesn't have badges. Ironic? |
News Room Contributor  Posts: 2410 Joined: 11 Sep 2008     | I still haven't really been hooked onto Achievements yet, cause I'm too lazy to get most of them. I think the last game I came close to getting all Achievements in was Braid, and almost all of those are just rewarded for beating stages. Woot. I'm a pro gamer. |

That was manually-crafted goldselling spam. Like... that required actual human effort. I'm almost impressed. |

On the Record Posts: 6207 Joined: 10 Mar 2008 | Ha! I got all the achievments in under 4 minutes! Beat that! |
Press Junketeer  Posts: 389 Joined: 5 Aug 2008   | I got 98 acheivments but couldn't get "Get off your seats". So close.... |

Isn't that impossible? "300 Seconds = Play for five minutes" |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1422 Joined: 2 Mar 2008  | Well, that was kind of fun. |
Muckraker  Posts: 321 Joined: 18 Dec 2008  | The only game I ever went out of my way to get achivements for was Halo 3, and even then it was only the single player achivements so I could get some of the armour variations. It still made me feel like a cheap whore though... I might have to check this game out, might help pass the time at work. |

Which achievment would that be? It said somtehing around 294 seconds or something. Though, I may have read to fast/done my math wrong seeing as how 294 is just under 5 minutes not 4 >_>; |

That's not what 300 is. :) |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2891 Joined: 6 Mar 2008 | Haha, that's a pretty funny and entertaining little game. The music is great too. |
Muckraker  Posts: 300 Joined: 8 Dec 2008  | This game had no reason being as much fun as it was. I got them all now, but still, hilarious good fun. |

Achievement Unlocked Game Exactly What It Says
Poking fun at the various Achievement systems now common throughout gaming, a silly little browser game called Achievement Unlocked is exactly what it says: a game where the only goal is to earn Achievements.
I managed to resist the siren lure of Achievements for a while, but when they came to World of Warcraft I was forced to admit what many other gamers have realized about themselves: I was an Achievement Whore.
Incidentally, that's exactly the mindset that Armor Games are poking fun at with Achievement Unlocked, a charming browser game where you control a tiny blue elephant and the only goal is ... earning Achievements. Some of my personal favorites are "You found the Developer's Favorite Spot," or "You entered the Konami Code!"
One can't help but wonder if it's slightly ironic to be satisfied with earning every single Achievement in a game that specifically teases gamers who hold that frame of mind.
Achievement Unlocked is the brainchild of John Cooney (Jmtb02) who heads up game developer for Armor.
