History VideoGame / AchievementUnlocked

* GuideDangIt: Most of the "numbered points" achievements, particularly "(2*125)+3" and "3*(30/(15-13))".
** One of the achievements is for visiting the [[spoiler:hint page]]

The same elephant stars in ''VideoGame/ThisIsTheOnlyLevel'' and its sequel, as well as ''Elephant Rave HD'' and ''Elephant Rave sLoWdOwN Remix'', ''Run Elephant Run'', ''Obey The Game!'' and ''VideoGame/ElephantQuest''.

** ''Achievement Unlocked 3'' asks the elephant to do unspeakable things to hamsters.

** ''Achievement Unlocked 3'' requires the elephant to do unspeakable things to hamsters.

* VideogameCrueltyPotential: Some of the achievements require you to kill the poor elephant you're controlling a certain number of times.

* PressXToDie: In the second game, the "Panic" button kills your elephant. There are several achievements for doing interesting things with this effect, as well a bug or two that it rescues you from.

* TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything: Played with. The ''entire point'' of the game is to pretty much do absolutely everything that jmtb02 could think of.

''Achievment unlocked! Read TV Tropes article''

* ShoutOut: A number of the achievements, such as [[ThreeHundred "THIS IS SPARTA"]], [[Franchise/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy "Meaning of Life"]], [[Music/TheBeeGees "Stayin' Alive"]], [[Film/RockyHorrorPictureShow "It's a Jump to the Left" and "And it's a step to the Ri-i-ight!"]].
** In the second game, there's an achievement called "[[Music/{{Radiohead}} The Bends]]".

* PressXToDie: In the second game, the "Panic" button kills your elephant. There are several achievements for doing interesting things with this effect.

* OnlySmartPeopleMayPass: The two number point achievements mentioned above are quite simple to anyone able to do mid-level mathematics.
** Or for those who have the ability to obtain and use a calculator.
** Also, in the second game, there are some achievements you need to know how to play the piano in order to get.

* DoubleJump: Attempting to do so in the first two games is an achievement in itself. It's really available in the third game, and trying to triple-jump gets an achievement.

The only real point to the game is to get all of the achievements -- there isn't really any story or anything to speak of. The game ends once you get all of the achievements.

Two subsequent sequels was made. The first of them, ''[[http://armorgames.com/play/6561/achievement-unlocked-2 Achievement Unlocked 2]]'' pokes fun at the concept of DownloadableContent. It also has a Time Trial challenge and a multiplayer mode. ''[[http://armorgames.com/play/13196/achievement-unlocked-3 Achievement Unlocked 3]]'' extends the amount of achivements to 400, includes a ladder system, and adds an ExcusePlot where you collect pellets for the Hamster King.

* KonamiCode: ''Required'' to get an achievement: "Too Much {{Contra}}"

** The craziest of them? [[spoiler:type the game's URL in another tab while you're still playing it, and you'll gain access to the Hot Coffee screen. Move about in that mini-stage, and stand onto the coffee cup to get more achievements]]. But wait, there's more: [[spoiler: in that secret screen, there's ''another secret screen'', named Cold Coffee. It's found by falling off the side of the Hot Coffee screen. Standing on top the Cold Coffee mug also gives you an achievement]]. It's pretty safe to say that [=AU2=] also pokes fun at the very notion of GuideDangIt.
