Monthly review prompts
Which map improved most? Which skip was abandoned? Which ghost taught the biggest lesson? Which night was pure exploration and still worth it? Write four sentences once a month. Future launch-week you (after 21 August 2026) will want that archive when new maps arrive and old demo instincts need translating.
Closing note
Keep one insight from « Medal Checklist » beside your next demo launch, then verify it on concrete before chasing gold on 21 August 2026 prep nights.
Checklist columns that matter
Map name · bronze date · silver date · gold date · ghost studied (Y/N) · notes · build (Demo2+). Add rows for secrets if they behave like maps. Do not only track gold—bronze dates prove literacy growth. After tilt, review which maps lack bronze before returning to a stubborn gold. Pair with Gold Medals for psychology and map guides for lines.
Weekly review ritual
Once a week, count bronzes versus golds. If golds outnumber bronzes across the set, you are prestige-skewed—go unlock or bronze new Demo2 content. Share anonymised progress with friends to stay accountable without spoilers.
After 21 August 2026
Archive the demo checklist, start a full-game sheet, migrate only the habits—not the obsolete times.
Example row
Hub Racetrack · bronze 2026-08-01 · silver 2026-08-03 · gold in progress · ghost Y · note: late slide before neon · build Demo2. Copy the pattern for Conapts and each new main until the sheet mirrors your Steam library reality.
Deepening notes for medal-checklist
Use this page as an active worksheet, not a poster. After reading, launch the VHOLUME Demo, test one idea for five minutes, and write a six-word result in your notes. If the idea fails, it becomes tomorrow’s opener; if it works, promote it into your medal or route checklist. Demo2’s four-main-map promise means your worksheet should grow when Steam updates land. Keep 21 August 2026 visible so practice stays purposeful. Cross-link sideways to guides and tools instead of rereading the same paragraph. Unique focus for this article: apply its primary claim on concrete before opening another wiki tab. That habit compounds better than binge reading on launch eve. Keep this page bookmarked beside your Steam client so advice stays one alt-tab away during Demo2 sessions.
Small reminder: honesty in notes beats perfect formatting when you are tired after gold attempts.
Frequently Asked Questions

How detailed should notes be?
Enough that future-you knows which skip was inconsistent.
Can friends share checklists?
Yes—compare columns after a multiplayer night.
What if I only care about exploration?
Track secrets visited instead of golds; the template still helps.
Should secrets get checklist rows?
Yes when they behave like timed circuits; otherwise keep them on a curiosity list.
