Overview
A wrapper for all achievement guides.
Introduction
I noticed that there is no achievement guide for this game already so I decided to make one. I’ll just wrap existing achievement guides or videos that will help you to 100% the game while giving some information for other achievements that is needed.
Note that you need to play the game at least four times to get the achievements:
– finish the game with all weapons
– finish the game with fire sword and ice wand
– finish the game with fire sword and portal wand
– finish the game with ice wand and portal wand
I suggest your first run to finish the game with all weapons, clearing the optional achievements to get all cards and hearts. Finish some optional challenges too if needed. As for “Keepin It Jenny”, feel free to do it when you do the other three runs. You also can try to speedrun the other three, so feel free to plan your run before attempting it.
Achievements
Discover a shortcut in an item dungeon
There is a shortcut in the dungeon where you got Fire Sword, Portal Wand, and Ice Wand. It’s the path that is marked as “Professional shortcut”. Feel free to check out the speedrun videos for the solution if needed.
Defeat an off-screen enemy
You need Portal Wand on this. Move the portal block to a spike and then shoot an enemy far away from you. I did it in Warped Woods, the place where I got the wand.
Teleport a flying axe so that it hits you anyway
Again, you need Portal Wand for this. You can do this in The Castle. Find the axe throwing enemy and place a portal block, then move up one tile and go a bit farther to the back. Teleport the axe from that spot and quickly move to the south.
Launch a Pancake enemy into the air
Yes, you also need Portal Wand for this. Cast a portal block and stand on it until the pancake goes towards you. Get out of the tile when that happens. The portal block will materialize and launch the pancake enemy in the air. You can find pancake enemy in the top right portal, and then head south from there.
Complete the Master Cave
Okay, this is the hardest achievement to get apart from the speedrun ones. Master Cave is located in Fishbun Hills, the area where you get out after you get the Fire Sword. Here[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]‘s a written walkthrough and a for you if you need help with it.
Complete the Compost Crypt
Compost Crypt is located in the Swamp, one screen east from the hub area. This area isn’t as hard as master cave, but if you have problem with it, you can watch this video.
Find every piece of paper
This shouldn’t be hard to find since all chests are marked on the map. Just make sure to explore every area and check the ones in the map that you miss. Here[gamefaqs.gamespot.com]‘s the list of the location for all piece of papers.
Find every card
Again, this shouldn’t be hard to get if you already explored all dungeons. There are 4 cards in Master Cave and 1 card in Tutorial Cave. The complete list can be found in this guide.
Complete the game without harming any Frog, Fox, Berry or Deer Jennys
Self-explanatory. Just don’t kill any guy with animal costumes as you play, or don’t kill anyone just to be safe. If it still doesn’t work, do it in your Fire Sword and Ice Wand run.
– Completion and Speedrun Achievements
Complete the game with all three items
Self-explanatory. Since you need to collect all chests to get all weapons, you might as well aim to get the rest of the optional achievements while you’re at it.
Complete the game with only Fire sword and Portal wand
Watch video for more info.
Complete the game with only Fire sword and Ice wand
Watch this video for more info.
Complete the game with only Portal wand and Ice wand
Watch video for more info.
Complete the game in less than three hours
Self-explanatory. You’ll bound to get this if you just focus on finishing the game with 2 weapons, without exploring the optional dungeons.
Complete the game in less than 15 minutes
Self-explanatory. See either Keep Your Cool, Elementary, or Wanderer section for the fastest route. Note that the game will be saved only if you quit the game through the menu or reach a certain checkpoint (there will be a loading icon on the bottom right corner when this happens). This means that you can always Alt+F4 the game whenever you think you messed up or die – you still can safely Alt+F4 when the death animation shows up. If you want to force the game to save, quit through the menu and load it again.
For reference, I did it with Fire Sword and Portal Wand. I found the Ice Wand and Portal Wand combo to be hard to execute in the final boss fight and I couldn’t find video for Fire Sword and Ice Wand with a lot of leeway time.

Achievement: “Masterfully Executed Failure”
Afterword
Hopefully you find the guide to be useful. To be honest, I was looking for an achievement guide in the guide section since some achievements are tricky to get, but I find nothing.
