Hardest Achievements

The numbers above make the difficulty gap obvious. Story beats like Getting started (98.3%) and Drip (96.4%) unlock for almost everyone, while the true grind sits at the bottom of the table: Bean (1.0% — finish the whole game in under one hour), Fishipedia(1.4% — kill every drip creature), Handyman (1.7% — beat the final boss bare-handed), andEveryone's dream (4.1% — kill a seagull with dynamite).

Completionist runs land in the middle: Collector (10.8%) needs every creature in the logbook, and Easy (20.5%) asks for a boss kill within 10 seconds — only realistic with a fully upgraded late-game loadout. Check our boss guides for the phase-by-phase routes that make both farmable.

Let me go unlocks by letting a seagull pick you up — stand still on an open beach and wait. I'm the bird nowasks you to make the boat fly, which ties into the volcano physics: max engine, full speed up the caldera ramp.
