I'd like to see the Retro Game Room get an Achievements system of sorts. Basically, some games in the RGR have Achievements which can be unlocked by doing certain tasks in the game, like get a high enough score, complete a certain level without using a certain item, and so on. Each achievement can have a certain Viz value. Depending on how difficult the Achievement is, you'll rewarded Viz based on the Achievement's Difficulty. This sounds possible, doesn't it?

That wouldn't be a bad idea but I think something would have to be programmed in the ROM itself to trigger achievements like the PC/Xbox/PS achievement system.

That would take a lot of money to upgrade the plugin which I'm pretty sure Davideo7 doesn't have, and the RGR won't get updated for a while.

Now while that is a good idea, but there's already a different site that pretty much revolves around collecting achievements for retro games (the name is RetroAchievements if you're curious). Now david could use the source code from that site, but idk how he'd integrate it in the RGR or if he'd get permission to use it.

TristanTehGamer1 : At least with the site I mentioned, it's the emulator itself and not the ROM. It has something to do with memory location I think, I never delved that deep into it.

TouchMaster97 : While I love achievements and getting all of the achievements because I am a perfectionist when it comes to games with achievements. The owner (Davideo7) does not have the money to do so. If you would like to help then perhaps consider donating or even supporting him on patreon. That could possibly help make that thing a bit more possible.

Believe me, I'm all for this idea, and I hate to be a buzz kill, but I don't see this happening.

The amount of time and effort it would take to program this kind of system in to the Plug-In would be enormous, as well as it taking a good deal of time for David to build some kind of reward system from the ground up that revolves around the achievements earned. Not to mention the fact you'd have to go through and manually implement each achievement for the tens of thousands of games this site features, as well as program the Plug-In to communicate with the site telling it what achievements you've earned and what reward should be given.

Even if we went with a simple Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum kind of reward system ( meaning each tier of achievements / trophies gives the same reward for every game ), there would still have to be a way for the system to determine which achievements you've earned, and a way to save that progress / communicate with the site so none of them could be abused or earned multiple times.

I guess you could always go with the $100 Tier of Patreon and use your 8 hours a month to have David build it / see what he can do about it though lol.

If they were INCREDIBLY basic, going for things like play time, play amount and such, it might be possible. For anything further, if he can even manage to tap into the games to make it that way, he'd need to hire more staff to help him set them up for games. It might be able to happen but I hold little hope. Nice idea though
