    I seem to have gotten this achievement but I collected a ton of rings on the way. I was trying to get the one for avoiding the water but got this one instead, and didn't touch the water once.

    I found the underwater path to be easier. You just gotta be careful with your air

    I agree, the underwater path is longer, but much easier imo

    I got the achievement without beating chemical plant act 2. Just uses level select to start at the Aquatic Ruin Zone Act 1, collect some rings, get damage and die. Then, when you restart the level, beat it with zero rings.

    Difficult... but fun, much better than finishing Casino Night Zone with 0 rings. At least here you can take the way down/up or both.

    Anyone who calls this achievement "fun" is psychopathic, and should not be listened to.
    RetroSprites 25 Nov 2022 22:21
    Cry then, much better than not getting rings at casino night.

    I never said Casino Night was better. I just said anyone who enjoys this is insane.

    I don't consider this achievement as "fun", what I consider fun is to find the best way to not get any rings, BUT, in this incredible level, but the achievement would be horribly stressful if it were in another level, the achievement would not be half as much fun if you move it to a different level. And that's why I don't like the Casino Night ringless achievement. The level is fun to play, always, (to me), but the achievement... No.

    LOL I got this achievement with debug mode.

    Lmao
    Scott 5 Dec 2022 15:47
    oof. This needs fixing asap
    Scott 5 Dec 2022 15:50
    it also need fixing in terms of - level select allowed, debug mode not allowed. IIRC they are different and need explaining. 19/65/09/17 is the level select and IS allowed. 1/9/9/2/1/1/2/4 is the debug mode and IS NOT allowed. I'll update this in the achievement. Thanks for heads up @DeliaSymbols
