Introduction

Hi there! Welcome to my 100% achievement guide. I'll try to keep this short and explain some things quickly, otherwise if you aren't interested in reading this skip this part!

There are 44 achievements in this game, and I have divided them up into 3 main sections: Adventure, Endless, and Co-op, along with a miscellaneous achievement. There are also sub-sections within each main section.

I have labeled each achievement with one of these four tags. Here's what they mean:

Easy - Achievements that are very easy to obtain (lower skill level required), or achievements that relate to an activity that you pretty have have to do if you are actively working towards a 100% (ex. looping, unlocking characters). I wouldn't focus on these achievements, rather once you are near 100% take some time to finish them off if you have any left.
Medium - Achievements that require more effort. Can be missed more easily, or may require more skill. Don't get upset if you can't get it after a few tries, you will get it if you put in the work.
Hard - Achievements that may be difficult to obtain. You may need to actively hunt for this achievement, and don't be surprised if you need many, many attempts to getting close to getting it.
Hard (Grind) - Achievements that aren't necessarily "hard", but they require you to grind a lot to achieve them. Work towards these after you are done with every other achievement.

Adventure

The achievements here are obtained while playing Adventure Mode.

Unlocking Characters Achievements

"What Did You Say?" - Easy To unlock Raff, buy all of the stage portals. This will be very easy to do as you will gain plenty of bounty per run.

"What Problems Does Violence Solve?" - Easy To unlock Biu, beat the game without using checkpoints (in adventure mode). This will take some time for most players, but what makes it easy is the fact that you can choose relics and guns before starting.

"Can I Play Too?" - Easy To unlock Punny (now called Panzer), collect 80,000 lifetime bounty.

Here Comes The Rider In Red - Easy To unlock Red, destroy 20 kami cages (this should also unlock the "Freedom!" achievement).

"Pathetic! Let Me Show You" - Easy To unlock Ace, die 5 times to the boss, Duke Ducan. If you are (somehow) too skilled at the game and don't manage to die enough times, after buying the Stage 4 portals, get to Duke Ducan and then allow yourself to be killed.

"Together Again" - Easy After you unlock Jimmy, Pinky, Raff, Biu, Panzer (Punny), and Ace, the achievement will unlock.

Obtaining Relic Achievements

A Ground Breaking Moment - Easy One of the very first achievements you will get. Sometimes after a level you will be able to dig for a treasure, which is when you will get the achievement.

Apprentice Hunter - Easy After discovering the three relic pieces associated with a certain relic, you will unlock this achievement.

"Relic Hunter" - Medium Obtain all of the Relics in Adventure Mode. You will be able to complete this one easily as you work towards beating the Ducan Commander with ever character. If not, replay Adventure until you get this achievement.

"Legend In The Making" - Medium Unlock all items, characters, checkpoints, and relics. Make sure to keep getting bounty as you will need to buy some of these things.

Miscellaneous Achievements

"Are You Serious?" - Easy 10 Combo kills are very easy to obtain as you will later run into many mobs (some places where there are many mobs: Spooky levels, levels with Kamis, etc). Make sure to not to be too slow, or you will lose the combo.

Freedom! - Medium Free the Kamis by destroying their cages. This is another easy achievement, but it can be missed if you don't destroy the cages. The cages look exactly like the achievement picture shows.

Trick Or Treat? - Medium Eat 20 Halloween candies. While in Spookylands, candy will sometimes drop (it will drop for sure when you unlock the final chest) which you can pick up. Eat 20 of them to get this achievement (easy but can be missed if you avoid Spookylands).

Ducan Commander Achievements

"We Did It!" - Easy Beat the Ducan Commander. This will be done multiple times by the time you are done with the game. Make sure to choose the easiest setting and choose strong weapons along with good relics. Also choose stage 4 so you don't waste any time.

"Defeat the Ducan Commander with ___ without using checkpoints" Achievements

As you can choose you starting relics, these achievements will be pretty easy. My favorite Relics are the Yottabyte Drive (increased shield), the Infinity Battery (increased shield regeneration), and the Pineapple Pudding (increased health), though obviously this doesn't work for Biu as he has no "shield". However, equip as many relics as you can in order to give you the biggest possible advantage.

Note: I have noticed that even though some of the achievements say that you may not pick up any weapons, I was able to choose weapons when I was in my ship to get the achievements. However, I don't think that you can pick up weapons once you start playing the stage.

Pistol Master - Medium Defeat the Ducan Commander with Jimmy without using checkpoints nor picking up any weapons. Jimmy's pistol isn't too strong, but his stats are decent.

"Only The Ones It Creates" - Easy Defeat the Ducan Commander with Biu without using checkpoints nor picking up any weapons. Probably the easiest character to loop with due to his shield. You can block most attacks (don't try to block close up sniper rifle shots or shotgun blasts, especially if you are close to them as they may puncture through the shield, doing damage to you).

"GG Easy" - Easy/Medium Defeat the Ducan Commander with Ace. His stats are awful, but you can select relics and weapons which makes this achievement much easier. Try to avoid direct confrontations as you can quickly become overwhelmed by stronger enemies. Note: I've heard you can use warps (checkpoints) for Ace, but I cannot confirm it. confirmed by aquatorrent

"They Were Not Ready For Me" - Easy Defeat the Ducan Commander with Pinkyy without using checkpoints. Pinkyy's only downside is her starter weapon. Her stats are really good, and she's skilled with pistols, which can be used late game. Super shields are a direct upgrade from grenades, as they let you dodge attacks.

"Being Awesome Is Too Loud" - Medium Defeat the Ducan Commander with Raff without using checkpoints. Raff's gun isn't too good (though it can shoot through walls), and neither are his stats. I recommend you replace the gun with a better weapon (ex. a pistol that uses medium ammo or an assault rifle), but it's up to personal preference.

"I'm Bored" - Easy Defeat the Ducan Commander with Punny (Panzer) without using checkpoints. Take advantage of her high speed to dodge many attacks. She also has a lot of shield, so you'll be able to minimize losing health.

Endless

The achievements here are obtained while playing Endless Mode.

Gear Achievements

Endless Hunt - Easy Have more than 3 Relics. Buying cheap relics and rerolling is an okay strategy, otherwise you should be able to get this after 1 good run.

Legendary Guns - Medium/Hard Obtain two Relic weapons. This is luck based, as you will rely on finding them in treasure chests after killing all the enemies. I found that they drop often around Loop 2/3. Make sure that you hold onto the first one you get as you may be able to get the achievement if you get a second.

Gun Upgrade Achievements

Gunsmith - Easy Upgrade a single gun 3 times. This will come easily, as it's not too expensive, and you will want to upgrade your guns in order to have a better chance of looping.

Gun Master - Hard Upgrade a weapon to +9. Make sure to scrap every weapons you find. This will most likely take you multiple attempts to get as it is one of the hardest achievements to get in the game, if not the hardest.

Gun Nut - Hard (Grind) Upgrade your gun 360 times total. This is not hard, but you will have to grind for it. By the time I had completed most of the achievements, I wasn't even close to completing this achievement. This will be one of your endgame achievements, so don't focus on it initially.

Hack Achievements

H4CK3R - Easy Hack 3 challenges in a single run during Endless Mode. The starting hacks cost 500 bounty, so you will get this easily as ideally you will get a minimum of 6 hacks during a run (in order to get the Modern Hunter achievement as efficiently as possible).

Modern Hunter - Hard (Grind) Hack 200 times. Ideally set a goal for yourself and fulfill it every run (you should be able to hack 5-6 times a run easily if you focus on hacking).

Spookyland Achievements

Where Are We? - Easy Like adventure mode, after clearing out all the enemies, you may have a chance to dig for a treasure or enter Spookylands. Enter Spookylands in Endless Mode to get the achievement.

After Dark - Medium After entering Spookylands, complete it to get the achievement.

Loop Achievements

Mysterious Stranger - Medium Loop without buying anything. Personally I recommend using Biu as his shield can reflect the enemy's bullets back at them. This is an easy way to get this achievement.

Road To Legend - Easy Loop for the first time. This means that you have to beat the Ducan Commander, which should be relatively easily as you have upgraded weapons (though you may not have your favorite relics).

The End? - Medium/Hard Beat Loop 2. This may seem hard at first, but as you play the game more you will become more comfortable getting to Loop 2. Make sure to have upgraded weapons, minimal debuffs (you won't be able to hack all of them as the prices increase rapidly, eventually to 9,999), and preferably max HP and shield before facing the Ducan Commander for the second time.

Endless Veteran - Hard (Grind) Loop 50 times. This is not hard, but it's a grind. This will most likely be the last achievement you get. Don't worry about it until you are completed with all of the other achievements. When you are ready to start working strictly towards finishing this achievement, I recommend you

Reach Loop 2 with ___ Achievements

The difficulty of these achievements will depend on how skilled you are with the character, but while they aren't easy, they aren't super difficult. I have tried to provide you with some tips. These descriptions are similar to the ones above (regarding defeating the Ducan Commander in Adventure Mode) but some have additional information relevant to Endless Mode.

Legendary Punny - Medium Reach Loop 2 with Punny (Panzer). Take advantage of her high speed to dodge many attacks. She also has a lot of shield, so you'll be able to minimize losing health.

Legendary Biu - Medium Reach Loop 2 with Biu. Probably the easiest character to loop with due to his shield. You can literally just block most attacks (don't try to block close up sniper rifle shots or shotgun blasts, especially if you are close to them as they may puncture through the shield, doing damage to you).

Legendary Raff - Medium Reach Loop 2 with Raff. My least favorite character, though he has decent mediocre stats. His starting weapon (keytar gun) isn't too good to be honest, although it can shoot through walls + deflect attacks. Personally, I would scrap that and replace it with a better weapon (early game pistol probably).

Legendary Ace - Medium Reach Loop 2 with Ace. Due to his horrible stats (besides speed), you'll find that he cannot do a lot. However, you will have a lot more bounty due to his perk, which will come in handy. Because of his bad stats, try to only hack when it is worthwhile (for instance, Medieval won't make that big of an impact). Relics are extremely helpful to make up for his stats, and will be easy to buy due to how fast you get bounty (same thing for guns).

Legendary Red - Medium Reach Loop 2 with Red. Probably one of my favorite characters, as his grenades summon Kamis. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEM. Kamis are an extremely helpful ally as they provide excellent distractions. His stats are pretty good as well!

Legendary Pinkyy - Medium Reach Loop 2 with Pinkyy, one of the best characters. Basically, her only downside is her starter weapon. Her stats are really good, and she's skilled with pistols, which can be used late game. Super shields are a direct upgrade from grenades, as they let you dodge attacks.

Legendary Jimmy - Medium Reach Loop 2 with Jimmy. He's described as an "all-around character", which is pretty much true. His stats are alright. He doesn't really have anything special about him, but if you can get the basic shooting mechanics down along with dodging, you will be alright with him.

Co-op

I used an emulator to get these achievements. I believe I used VJoy/UCR to set 4 keys to up, down, left, and right. I played on one character and only moved the second character when it was absolutely necessary (the two players have a maximum distance they can be apart before they can't move any further apart). However, if you actually have a controller, these achievements will be very easy (especially if you use Biu). Because you may have to set up an emulator, all of these achievements are medium.

Note: If you are using VJoy/UCR and are playing by yourself, you may be able to kill your second character so you can continue solo in order to make life easier for you. I'm not sure if this works, let me know in the comments if you try it!

I used this video to get the co-op achievements. Hopefully this helps you!

Friendly Fire Achievements

Oops - Medium On the main menu, go to Settings --> Gameplay Options --> Friendly Fire On. Start a game and shoot your teammate until they die.

Ducan Commander Achievements

The Power of Two - Medium Beat the Ducan Commander in co-op. Pretty self-explanatory, you can use your teammate as a second life if you die during the boss fight. This should be no more difficult than killing him solo. I recommend to not use relics or checkpoints as you can then unlock both the "The Power of Two" and "Friendship is The True Relic" achievements at the same time.

Friendship is The True Relic - Medium Basically "The Power of Two", but you can't use relics or checkpoints. This is your second reminder to have one person be Biu!

"You Must Really Hate Turtles"

"You Must Really Hate Turtles" - Easy/Medium After loading up an adventure game, go to the right until you get reach the arrow that says "Tutorial".

After pressing "e" on the pad, you will spawn in the tutorial area. Go right until you reach the turtle.

Kill the turtle. He has a lot of health, but he will eventually die.

Overpowered Gun

If you want to make this easier use the "Overpowered Gun!" This should make for very fast clear times.

Freedom! and Trick Or Treat? are buged

Pieterflieter 4 Feb, 2024 @ 8:21am

I did some research and got it now.
You have to return your game to the legacy version and then delete your save data.
Once you've done that you can complete a co-op adventure without any relics and you get it.

No need to play without dying btw, you can die as many times as you want :D

Pieterflieter 4 Feb, 2024 @ 7:42am

I'm trying to get the "friendship is the true relic", but whatever i do it just wont pop. I tried doing it without dying and it still doesnt pop? I know this is a pretty old guide and its 2024 so im kind of shooting in the dark here, but any suggestions? :D

Brandonius 24 Aug, 2023 @ 10:07pm

Nevermind my last comment. It appears in the shop and I was just unlucky.

Brandonius 3 Oct, 2022 @ 8:10am

An earlier comment mentioned the Overpowered Gun but I can't figure out how to use it outside of Adventure Mode. I guess I'll have to get good for those Endless achievements unless I'm missing something?

Thanks a lot for this guide, I used to want to 100% this game but I got bored after a while, then I realised punny existed.

@Reeses_in_Pieces Thank you for the compliment! No problem.

Reeses_in_Pieces 14 Feb, 2021 @ 8:01pm

very good guide, thanks much

@JanReyZHD Very true, Biu’s lack of shields means you can’t just sit and hide while you recover. I thought it was the easiest as you can sit with your shield and let the opponents attacks kill them, then run away if your shield is running low. I haven’t played the game in a bit, so apologies as I don’t know about kami bites against the shields. Thank you for the comment!

JanReyZHD 14 Nov, 2020 @ 4:55am

I feel actually reaching loop 2 with Biu is the hardest. Yes, his handheld shield can block everything, but he often fails to block the bullets and can't block kami's bites/bullets when the shield is on (a bug or just how it works?), which is lethal after loop 0 stage 3. In fact, I can even reach loop 2 with Ace first but then failed many times with Biu until I subscribed "overpowered gun".

By testing, I found that it seems 1 shield point = 3 HP, and it can regenerate, which means other characters always have 75 or more backup HP at any time. Sadly, Biu doesn't have this advantage.
