Publisher Xitilon asked to roll back easy achievement changes for some of their games

In recent months, you may have noticed that the achievements of games released by Xitilon, such as Pixel Gladiator and Castle of No Escape, have been updated to make them much easier to unlock. Now the publisher has been informed by Microsoft that they have broken the platform owner’s rules regarding Xbox achievements and are now working to undo any changes made.

Xitilon told TrueAchievements that Microsoft has been in contact with the publisher about the changes, stating that Xitilon has broken one of its rules set out in its achievement policy. This rule states that the rules for unlocking achievements should not be changed after posting. “Microsoft reached out to us about the achievement changes in some of the games I release. It turned out to be against a very specific rule, which I didn’t notice at the time,” Xitilon said. . “I [am] personally working overtime, and this weekend, to bring all related accomplishments back to their original state. “

According to Xitilon, the following games will have their core achievement lists changed to their state when they are first released:

These games will have their achievement requirements reinstated on January 9. If you are a success hunter and want the easy player score, you might want to play these games now before the changes go into effect. Xitilon says successes in title updates will remain intact, “Non-basic achievements, which were added in title updates, will remain as is – they don’t violate anything.”

This month, eight games released by Xitilon received easy title updates worth 1000G each. Bullet Beat, Smart Moves, 50 Years, Grm Mariupolis, ReactorX, The Explorer of the Night, Castle of no Escape and Castle of no Escape 2 are now worth either 2000G and in some cases 3000G. These games last less than 30 minutes each.
