Achievement Brainstorming

A way to do that could be to have an organism live 25% longer than the previous lifespan, so a human would live to be 100 in order to receive that achievement.

Increased lifespan does not necessarily mean increased generation time, so I like that idea. Estimating a human generation at 20 years, that's seven generations: good enough for me.

Lol i'm immortal: live for 150 years

1. Im not sure about it. How would you define obese in game?

2.Ok, but it might be to simple

3. To easy to get, you could just go to someone aggresive again and again.

3. I like that idea, but how would you define ,,weapons''? There wont be anything like weapon editor, so we will need some way to game knows is something weapon or not. It could be defined by its use, but problem would be to it would cause sticks and rock, as example, be defined as weapons.

4.I dont like that idea. Its to simple.

5.I like that idea, but i would love a diferent name for it.

1. Obesity depends of the size of your creature
2. I know it's simple, so let's discard it
3. Discard
4. Weapons could be anything that shoots, explodes, cuts, smashes,etc to kill or harm another organism. I think anything "made" by nature isn't a weapon in game.
4. Yeah it's simple and easy
5. How about " The time is so fast" or "Yay! my grandson had kids!"

REdo sorry

Enterprising Lycanthrope
Add ten moons to a planet.

The one that got away
Have one of your fishing vessels destroyed by a large aquatic beast.

Hot politics
Use your ship to abduct a planet's governmental leaders.

Good ones, they aren't super specific and they are easily added and checked, the politics one made me laugh.

Then you might like this one;

Richard Nixon Indeed.
Your nation's leader is forced to resign due to some 'sketchy activities'.

If you mean a scandal then yes we can add that achievement. (we plan to include scandals (as a modifier))
edit:
remember that space stage will be RTS style automatically, the player can go into organism mode and control a space ship seperately.

But that achievement would be for your country to have the civ's equivalent of watergate happen.

Okay, here's a few ideas, didn't have a better name for some of these.

Roger Roger: Build a robot for a Military purpose.

Million Dollar Species: Augment your species with bionics/machinery (Entire body and entire species)

Reaper: Kill another organism after dying (thinking with a toxin or something)

EDIT: Ah, what the heck, a couple more.

Hegemony: Conquer/Colonize 100 star systems

Psychosocial: Ally 10 nations and turn on them

Achievement Ideas:

"Inhuman; Design a species that is not a mammal"

"Frostbitten; Design a Lizard-like species that lives in cold temperatures"

"Book of Thrive; Research all of the Religious points"

"Free Time; Have a city with an unemployment rate of 50%"

"Hoarder; Have a personal wealth of your (assuming there is one) main creature of over one-million"

"Little Green Men!; Attack a planet that is locked in the early Civilization stage (Around the 1950s-60s time when Alien Hype was at it's highest)"

"Titan; Create a race of gigantic creatures."

"Planet Killer; Invent technology to decimate entire planets"

"A-113; As an AI or Robotic creature, trap people aboard a ship to prevent them from returning home"

"Enterprise; Have a ship with a bridge area shaped like a Pie-tin"

(The last one is a joke, A-113 is a WALL-e reference.)

And there are my suggestions. I humbly await a reply.

(I will label difficulties unless you wish to order them yourself)

EDIT: The "Inhuman" is supposed to be easy, because I figured it'll be more difficult in the long run, considering that reptilian species must warm themselves up in order to be much less sluggish, such as Alligators must rest on beaches. So, it's really just a reward that says "Hey, you're gonna last long! :D"

Reviving: Re-terraform a planet destroyed by nuclear war

I have a few possible achievements. They could be SECRET achievements, so people would either have to see this post or just unlock it randomly to know what they did to get them.

You're never gonna keep me down!: Evolve to fly, then to the land, then once again into the air. (Organism)

What's that thing I need to do?: Die five times from drowning. (organism, multicellular and aware)

You feeling lucky, alien?: Kill an enemy using only a ranged attack. (Organism, multicellular and aware)

Glory to <insert name here>: Have government leader/type change five times within <insert time period here> (Strategy in society or industrial or whenever overthrowing of governments will occur)

Mayday! Mayday!: Kill an animal while it is flying from the ground. (Organism, multicelluar and aware)

That's about it.

"Ultimate Payback": Annihilate the Home Planet of a Species that invaded your own planet in the Multicellular, Aware, Awakening, or Civilization stage.

-Difficulty, Very Difficult due to the rarity of an invasion and depending on how powerful your forces have become, and the expanse of the enemy empire.

"Size Matters Not": Defeat another Space-fairing [Empire, Republic, Confederacy, etc.] in the Space Stage with a species only about four feet tall or shorter.

-Difficulty, Near-Impossible due to how long it takes to find a civilization and because size probably will matter against things that are only about four feet in height.

"Juggernaut": Have a War Robot that has survived at least ten Skirmishes against more than one-hundred enemies or more, and has barely needed a major repair.

-Difficulty, Near-Impossible due to how indefinitely War Robots will probably be targeted first, but if they manage to pull it off, the Robot gets a rename and an enormous power boost. Not for the entire line of Robots, just for the single robot.

"Organic Matter is for the Mal-Contempt": Create a race that starts out as a single robot that copies itself over and over again to form immense armies of robotic self-replicating clones.

-Difficulty, Unknown due to I'm not sure if this is possible or not.
(I hope it is, that'd be incredible. :P)

"Use More Gun": Upgrade any vehicle to give it an enormous arsenal of weaponry and armor.

-Difficulty, Medium due to how much it would cost to get the thing into battle, and it would be drastically slowed down, but incredibly hard to destroy.

Ultimate Payback could only happen in Space, because if it were in any other stage, you'd be dead.

I think he means annihilate the home planet of a species that invaded you in those stages, in the space stage.

If you were invaded in multicellular and aware, you couldn't do anything. It's not like Avatar where a giant tree commands all the animals to go on a rampage and kill all the humans trying to harm the planet.

Guys, although conjuring up achievements may be fun and a breath of fresh air from the more difficult processes of developing the other parts of the game, remember that we have a Microbe Stage to release. And a Multicellular Stage. And an Aware Stage. And an Awakening Stage, a Society Stage, an Industrial Stage, and a Space Stage. Achievements contribute little towards this. Right now we should be geared towards finishing the Microbe Stage. We are so close, but we still have work to do, and although it can be nice to post some ideas for some in-game achievements, remember that we need the game first.

Achievements are a pleasant aside, but they shouldn't take up too much focus. What we really need to be working on right now is things like the agent system, the compound system, fleshing out the details on organelles, etc. I'm not saying to not post on this thread, but if too much focus goes on this thread, and not enough on the main development, I will lock this thread until we get some solid game releases out.

How about these?

Not a lie after all
Invent cake.

Say hi to Wheatley!
Orbit around a planet 10 times.
