AUTHOR'S COMMENT

Hello everyone! Damn I have no idea what to say...here's a massive submission for you!!! I worked very long and hard on this with a bunch of people! I really hope you enjoy Punk-o-matic 2! Please, leave comments, I really wanna know what you think, your feedback is important, I wanna know what you like, what you don't like, if there are bugs I didn't find, anything! Have fun!!! Oh and I'm sorry for the file size, it's a crazy music game though :D

***MARCH 2ND: You can now share your music with the newgrounds community with the NG.2.13 version. It contains a couple bug fixes and the "Share!" button which allows you to submit your user songs and load/rate other people's songs.

***FEBRUARY 6TH: I just updated Punk-o-matic 2 to version 2.12, it has a lot of bug fixes, lag fixes and a new FREE MODE for people who don't care about the career, as you can see I'm open to feedback and I work to make better games for you guys :) Cheers! A new NG exclusive version is coming soon with in-game song sharing for the newgrounds community.

UPDATE: There's an OFFLINE VERSION of the game that you can get from punk-o-matic.net that can help a lot with lag issues.

LAG: If you're having lag problems, lower the quality in the options, reduce the animation level and disable the concert lights, that should help! Head over to punk-o-matic.net for more lag reducing tips! Know that I'm aware of that and I'm gonna work on that.

COMPLEXITY: If you're overwhelmed by the number of riffs, stick to one note and one style and use the special riffs, for example E3 Raw riffs or E7 Classic riffs, use rhythm riffs on a guitar and lead riffs on the other, use the sync too to make the bass follow the rhythm rhythm guitar and make drums and there you go, it's like pom1 in this way.

CONTROLS: I know you've been playing guitar hero and rock band for the last 5 years or so but that's not the only control that can exist, stop complaining and learn the new controls, it's fun and challenging! :)

TIPS & GUIDE

About the Lag: According to some people the following help with the awful lag: -playing in pop-up mode -turning quality to low -turning animation off -turning off concert lights

However none of them worked for me, and my computer can play crysis. Not sure what's going on, but the lag makes me miss a note every once in a while no matter what I do. Oh well.

How to get the Medals: You'll have two basic songs, one for the streak medals, and then your main one for all the rest of the medals (not counting the covers medals). Copy and paste these songs into the "load data" section. Then click "go to composition list" and click and empty line and save your song. For the short song, change just the name and save it again, and then one more time - so that you have three copies of the song (you only need one copy of the long song).

long song:

(long)anananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananananananananananananananan ananananananan!!-Z-Z-Z-F,-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z- Z-Z-x,-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-x,-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z- Z-Z-x

short song:

alternate short song - play on Guitar 1 insane. Thanks to Urrad:

(G1)-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-x,apapapapapapapa papapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapa papapap!!-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-S,-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z -Z-Z-x,-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-x

These songs are just the drum playing "fast inverted B #1" over and over again for only one beat (15 times for the short song and 251 times for the long song), where each beat has two notes. The short song will stop after 30 notes, and the long song will stop after 502. I prefer to play with player 2 and this means just pressing 9 and 5 over and over again. It's up to you if you want to spice these songs up with other tracks so they aren't as boring to play. You can also choose a different riff to repeat or instrument to use, this is just what I used.

After you have these songs saved go to the garage, click on the "go to compos" button at the bottom of the paper and then click your long song. Then play it (always with drum on easy) and get the 500 note streak, if lag makes you miss a note then play it again until you get it. This gets you the streak medals, and you're done with the long song forever!

Next play a concert with your three short songs. Do this until you get perfect on all three to get the perfectionist medals, now you only have to play 1 song a concert!

Now play concerts and the garage until it sells out, then move to the bar until it sells out, then move to the concert hall until it sells out, then to the theatre, then the stadium, and finally the park! Then play 40+ more concerts at the park until it sells out and you get the writing history medal... You should have all 100 items by this point (you get them for throwing a perfect or awesome concert), but if not play a few more concerts until you get them all.

It's not glorious, but imagine how bad this would be if all your songs were more than 15 seconds.

At this point you'll have almost all the medals; you'll just be missing the cover medals. You earn these by going to the different venues and watching the concerts of different bands you don't have. Unfortunately I don't know any tricks for this, except most of the songs seem to be easiest if you play them with bass. Good luck! Stay away from drums and never play on a harder difficulty than you have to.

That's all folks! Now never play this game (at least concert mode) ever again!
