You have to swing across 25 vines going only left or right. If you change direction the achievement resets. I always find disabling one of the direction keys helps so if you do accidentally press the wrong way it won't reset.

Mastered and this was my toughest Mastery Badge yet.
ssolle 15 Jan 2024 06:27
mastery #59. this is the best atari 2600 game i've played yet, i understand now why this is considered one of the best games ever made for the system. that vine swinging animation is surprisingly smooth, which is an achievement on the 2600, all of the small things are very good. that last achievement was brutal to get though...
BroccoliRob 20 Aug 2024 18:48
That was super fun! Thanks for the great set! I'm so glad I got to complete this one (with the help of a map of course) I didn't know you could complete it until now! I did find a efficient route for the Splunker East achievement if anyone is having trouble with that one. RA recap and guide here: https://youtu.be/Clr6tRuBdbk

Any tips on how to consistently jump scorpions?
mariteaux 24 Aug 2024 11:39
Get good at the timing. Try to jump as late as possible.
Dogmeatman 24 Aug 2024 11:46
They always head towards you and will change direction as you jump over them.
mariteaux 24 Aug 2024 11:47
They will, but it's completely possible to consistently hop them if you jump as late as possible and get used to the timing.
32bitCrush 5 May 2025 01:24
Great set, but I question the logic of making the most difficult achievement the win condition. When you master and beat a game by completing the same achievement, what's the point of even having a win condition?
mariteaux 5 May 2025 01:24
Still not following the question. Are you asking why winning the game is an achievement?
32bitCrush 5 May 2025 01:28
No, I'm asking why Indiana Jones is the win condition. Beating the game and mastering the game are different things, yeh? However, I imagine for most people, Indiana Jones is the last achievement. Therefore, people aren't beating the game before they master it; they're beating the game at the same time as mastering it.
mariteaux 5 May 2025 01:29
It's a win condition because that's winning the game, collecting all the treasures. The fact that beating the game and mastering the set are two different things is irrelevant.
32bitCrush 5 May 2025 01:31
If that's winning the game, then there should be a more difficult achievement for mastery. Beating a game is not the same as mastering a game.
mariteaux 5 May 2025 01:32
If you say so.
32bitCrush 5 May 2025 01:33
I don't just say so. It's the foundation of the concept on which RA works.
mariteaux 5 May 2025 01:33
That's just, like, your opinion man.
32bitCrush 5 May 2025 01:43
I can't argue with the Dude. I concede.
krehztim 5 May 2025 03:12
Do you have an example of what might be considered beating the game? I think unfortunately for this game, it's all 32 treasures. IMO there should also be a 114,000 points as mastery, but I appreciate the hell out of this set. There could also be a time-based mastery, as in getting all treasures or scoring 114,000 in less than 19 minutes and 30 seconds. Hmm. I just noticed that 19 minutes is 1,140 seconds, and the max score is 114,000. 40 years and I just figured that out.
32bitCrush 5 May 2025 19:52
Honestly, I don’t know. This just seems to be a case where mastery and win condition are essentially the same. It happens, I guess. I didn’t mean to make it seem like a bigger deal than it was.
Dogmeatman 5 May 2025 20:59
Collecting all the treasures is beating the game. To master it you have to complete all the challenges, like Explorer, Vanguard, Commando, etc. You don't need to do those to beat the game so it adds an extra dimension to the mastery.
