Plan achievements around progression and cleanup
The Steam store lists 58 achievements for the full game. Achievement names and hidden conditions should come from the live platform list, not from the 23-achievement demo or an old guide. This page therefore focuses on planning a completion route without inventing unlock requirements.
Patch v1.0.13.0 specifically relaxes the achievements for 100% enemy collection and 100% player-upgrade completion. They previously required every level of the relevant enemies and upgrades. Separate achievements that arrive through normal progression from deliberate cleanup goals, and retest these two after updating before repeating a full collection route.
Use the full-game list
Do not mix the demo achievement count or conditions into the released game checklist.
Finish natural progress
Let story, stage, and basic progression unlocks reduce the cleanup list first.
Group conditions
Combine Avatar, build, or stage-specific attempts when they can share one run plan.
Retest two 100% goals
Enemy collection and player-upgrade completion use relaxed requirements in v1.0.13.0.
Check hidden entries
Use the current Steam or Xbox interface before relying on an old hidden-condition guide.
Do this first
- 1Open the platform list
Check the live description and hidden status after game updates.
- 2Retest the two 100% goals
v1.0.13.0 no longer requires every level of the relevant enemies and upgrades.
- 3Record current progress
Use a local checklist; do not upload account data to this site.
- 4Reproduce the condition
Retest the exact requirement in the current build before relying on an old guide.
