I think this addition is great but you guys need to quickly roll out a opt-out feature because this can really mess up peoples games that already have built-in achievements. But I still appreciate this addition, thanks Mochi <3!

Will it be possible to define your own medals except for just reaching a specific score? It would be really great if the mochi-api had support for custom achievements.

Cool feature, I agree customizable would be neat too but if you do make it so, don’t remove the ‘automatic’ medals as they are. It’s a great hands off way to make some older games more appealing again. Having said all that, some kinks might still be in the system – a couple of hacked scores can really really mess up the standard deviations. To get a silver on Powerpool, I need to get 4.2 Million. This didn’t change even after I removed the offending hacked score.

wouldnt the highscores (cheated highscores) fall outside of the 99 percentile, and therefore should not be counted in the avarages?

The underlying system is built to support custom achievements, but it may take a while for us to open that up to developers in a safe and easy way.

We’ll do some investigation over the next few days to see how deleted scores and outliers can affect the automatic medal placements.

achievements based on scores – is good. not so great as achievements based on others stuff(levels beated, etc).

but it cool system, problem is only that if i`m need use other params, i have to create hidden leaderboards for that. i think that should works…

Badim, don’t worry this is just the beginning of this feature :)

Great feature, thank you guys!

This is a fantastic feature and I for one would like to see it taken further. Microsoft are always on to us to increase the number of in-game achievements on our XBLA game so the public definitely wants this kind of thing. I would like to see extended to allow developer set achievements but well done in this first step.

Interesting idea but I’m not sure what would make this feature more appealing then a system like kongs.

Thanks for the great feedback guys!

@Invasion: The difference is that these achievements are not tied to the game being played on a specific site.

Awesome,
i hope later mochi will have more medals feature function more :) such as see all own medal,
creating own medal icon,etc :)

I think this is an excellent first step towards customizable “Xbox like” achievements.

Those will definitely be a must in the near future in order for flash games to remain competitive : mochiads should not fall behind!

Cool hope i can add that to my games =D

The high score’s from Globs doesn’t work!

@Ingrid: Could you please send a detailed description of what you mean by “doesn’t work”? I just tested the game and didn’t have any problems. Any detail on where you played the game would be helpful to diagnose the problem.

The highest scores are not added. “no scores yet today!” is display in your window. I’ve checked this in many sites: “juegosjuegos.com”; “freeworldgroup”, etc. etc-

It would be nice if you would add this to the publisher bridge functionality, so we could show a uaer all the medals he have earned, and propose some games he could play to gain medals.

Is there any intent to add access to the achievements to the object set returned from MochiScores.retrieveList() ?

Custom Leaderboards that use the Mochi service are out of luck on this feature, as far as I can tell.

There’s no way to do that yet. We’ll probably add that feature, but I don’t have a time line for that yet.
