Holy shit the Part Time UFO challenge is tough. Had to take a break or was going drive myself crazy trying to just get the first medal (not even the two star part).
Aw I love getting to see folks hardware, spaces and such through these!@Chaotic Neutral
That's Hello, Popopo! down. Broke out my original copy for this one. Short and sweet, like a delicious slice of cake!
...huh, here's a fun fact I learned today. The reason the 3D Classics version of Kirby's Adventure heals you in the middle of the boss rush is because the Famicom original does it, too.
It's a classic case of the international version of a game being made more challenging, and a case of the 3D Classics version either un-localizing the change or forgetting to re-localize it. So, uh, for anyone who's doing the challenge, make sure not to play the Famicom version of Kirby's Adventure either, I suppose?
Jeez you got a legend to pose in your victory shots? How is anyone gonna compete with that!!@Chaotic Neutral!!!
I think I'm doing this right:
Hello, Popopo! completed, food returned to Dream Land (via Superstar):
Floating Below Par completed, gold on course 1:
Guess which one of those two challenges took me the longest!
If I did this wrong let me know and I will.. do it another way? I guess? I think through context clues in this thread I'm doing it right. Also Shout-out to @VolcanicDynamo for style points
Yes, my boi was very excited for the chance to pose with the legend, Kirby.Jeez you got a legend to pose in your victory shots? How is anyone gonna compete with that!!
well done, poyo : )
Agreed and will update the challenge again accordingly, thanks for the info folks! Only the SP version is disallowed now.With this info, I think that version should be allowed if it was the original release. You can play that version on NSO if you wanted, so not sure excluding the 3D classics version should happen.
More acknowledgement than the Zelda anniversary, amirite Fami?
Snuck some time with Dream Land in bed last night but was so knocked out from the day that I passed out soon into it lol.
Looking forward to Dream Course next, which I only played a bit of back on Wii U VC. Then after a quick pop into LA on my completed profile it’ll be onto Tier 2 with The Great Cave Offensive which I haven’t played since the DS release back in 2008!
How in the world...?
2 - Y'all should be glad the challenge isn't getting a hole-in-one on every hole in Course 1; I did it myself for bragging rights but i'm sure it wouldn't be much fun for everyone else, lol.
Dang, time to get brainstorming on Tier 4I'll be saving the other two for May proper, but I couldn't help myself and did two more challenges today. @Chaotic Neutral
Thoughts on both:
1 - Was planning to take the screenshot on 3DS, but then I remembered that without Miiverse there's no way to upload screenshots from any game you want. Ended up playing it twice today just to take the above shot on my totally legit Microsoft Game Boy Color Deluxe.
2 - Y'all should be glad the challenge isn't getting a hole-in-one on every hole in Course 1; I did it myself for bragging rights but i'm sure it wouldn't be much fun for everyone else, lol.
I uh, plead the fifthYou should add a bonus challenge if we get Kirby 64 on NSO next month!
My workdays will be soundtracked to Kirby for the month to stay on theme. What is everyone's favorite Kirby track? (added to the Q+A too)
So how do we record this one? Just show you collected the instrument in Eagle's Tower?Is That Really You? (The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening - Game Boy & Nintendo Switch)
Rumor has it that Kirby has been spotted attacking the inhabitants of Koholint Island; but could that really be true? Head to the Eagle's Tower dungeon and take down any pink puffball you find inside.
There are two different prizes up for grabs! The actual prizes are still under wraps, but I'm happy to announce that there will be 3 Normal Prizes and 2 Super Prizes up for grabs. Stay tuned for more info!
At the conclusion of the event, a raffle will open. Based on your performance in the event, you will be given up to three (3) tickets to enter: one ticket per tier that you completed a challenge in. So, the only way to get 3 tickets is to complete challenges across all three of the tiers. Your additional entries will give you a greater chance of winning, but you can only win once. If you happen to win both prizes, you will be given a choice between the two options and your other "win" will be re-rolled to another participant.
The actual completion process is the same as usual. Per @Chaotic Neutral 's instructions last time around…
For the duration of the event, which is until May 31 midnight at GMT/UTC, you can complete the event challenges, related to the event's theme and laid out in this OP, to earn badges on the board, which you can then feature on your profile and posts. After successfully completing the challenge, post the proof of your accomplishment in this thread (video or image evidence) and indicate which challenge you went for, while @-ing @Chaotic Neutral in the post. Awarding the badges is a manual process, and they can only do the honours when at leisure and by the computer, so you might have to wait patiently for the badge to show up! Then, later on, successful badge-holders will be awarded the opportunity to enter a raffle for prizes, details TBD.
Nice! Will be updating my badges immediately.✰ Kirby Turned 30 Update 1.0.2 is now live! ✰
my version numbers will be as meaningless as Nintendo's
✧・゚: ✧・ Patch Notes ・゚✧:・゚✧
Badges are now live and being awarded for challenges, woo! Show them off!- Details on prizes has been added to the OP and below. Stay tuned for further details!
- Event rules have changed regarding Tiers and Raffle Entries. You may now earn up to three (3) entries in the raffle total by completing challenges from each of the 3 tiers. This is up from the previous max of one (1).
- Images in the OP were a bit oversized and have been adjusted.
- Badges have modified to have have background colors representing their tier.
- A new question has been added to the Q+A.
- poyo
Hmm with it being tier 1 we won't be too picky. I was thinking a screenshot of a room Kirby is in with him clearly defeated, or a small clip of the fightSo how do we record this one? Just show you collected the instrument in Eagle's Tower?
Great question! No need to record the whole thing. I'd say we're looking for evidence of you unlocking the mode, then a screenshot of the nightmare fight or credits. Honor system for the connection between the two.How do we prove the vs boss challenge ? Do we have to record the whole thing ? As I remember, when you beat Nightmare in it, it just acts as if you completed the main game, with the same credits rolling and everything.
Thank you very much!!Alright , everyone's badges before now should be up! Please hit me up if I oversaw a post somewhere!
Quick question, do we have to complete a tier 1 challenge in order to a attempt a tier 2 challenge, and a tier 2 challenge in order to attempt a tier 3 challenge, or are those just difficulty tiers?
Thanks @EvilChameleon for asking this question initially! Tiers now have a bit more purpose thanks to youJust difficulty tiers and a little flavor on the setup for now - no need to follow any specific order!
Your point score at the end of a Vs. Boss! run is going to be different from any score you would reasonably obtain in the main game; so that’s one way to somewhat tell.How do we prove the vs boss challenge ?

Ok thanks !Great question! No need to record the whole thing. I'd say we're looking for evidence of you unlocking the mode, then a screenshot of the nightmare fight or credits. Honor system for the connection between the two.
Ah you're right, good point ! Didn't think about that.Your point score at the end of a Vs. Boss! run is going to be different from any score you would reasonably obtain in the main game; so that’s one way to somewhat tell.
Not a clutter at all, all Kirby discussion is welcome! That’s why we request you tag for badges so they aren’t missed.Not to clutter up the thread too much, but I've been buying GB games on 3DS and trying to finish up that process before the store closes next year. I bought Kirby's Block Ball a couple of days ago and have been playing through it.
I've never played it before, so this is maybe top on my list of GotY games from years that are not 2022, but that I only just played this year. It takes the typical Breakout formula and immediately starts playing with it in interesting ways. Every screen adds some new mechanic or idea, but it's not overwhelming. It's just endlessly creative. I'm a sucker for Breakout already, so a game like this that iterates on the core gameplay in so many interesting ways is definitely up my alley.
The boss fights are particularly creative.
So yeah, this is definitely the Year of Kirby for me; it's the latest in any year that Kirby games are at the top of my list for both 2022 GotY and Game From Not-2022 That I First Played In 2022 GotY.
