Achievements

SpeedRunner Complete the game in under a half-hour.

Once you know what to do, 30 minutes is a very generous amount of time, especially since you can play on Easy. My current record is Just shy of 8 minutes. Go into the game knowing where to go and exactly what you need. You can grab the flare gun to make your life a little easier, but it isn’t necessary at all. The only puzzle that can’t be memorized is the Piano Puzzle, as the solution is random each run.

Pacifist Complete the game without picking up a firearm.

As far as I’m aware, there’s only one gun in the game and it’s the flare gun. You grab this in the room past the helm (where you end the game for the Good Ending). Simply complete the game without ever grabbing it. Easily done on Easy and during your speedrun attempt.

Good Ending Achieve the good ending.

Bad Ending Achieve the bad ending.

To achieve the Good Ending, you need to collect the purple hexagon, slot it into the altar in the engine room, and drive the ship to safety. For the Bad Ending, you need at least 3 bottles of whiskey, 3 flares, and the flare gun. Once you arrive in the engine room, don’t slot the purple hexagon. Instead, unlock the door to leave, then turn around and kill the 3 enemies that spawn. One of them will drop the Captain’s Key. Enter his room, grab the Radio Parts, and repair the radio in the room you grab the flare gun from. After spawning on the island, grab the body from in front of the rowboat and enter the lighthouse. To the right will be a lantern barely lighting up a trap door you can go down. Grab the torch and wade into the water down the hall to end the game.

A-Rank Achieve an “A” ranking.

I’m unsure what the exact requirements are for an A-Rank and currently playing around with results. I suggest pairing this with your speedrun and no gun achievements. Simply fly through the game only grabbing the items you need. Don’t ever save or heal, as they have a big effect on your rank.
