| 18 Jul 11:02 2017 |  | Guys, the Oculus Drift and the Red Falcon Recapitulation achievements do not work. The person that got them is probably cheating. | ||
| 18 Jul 15:45 2017 |  | The achievement Oculus Drift works | ||
| 19 Jul 7:50 2017 | | Yeah, now it seems to work, weird... | ||
| 19 Jul 7:59 2017 |  | 6553500 points is max score in this game. It can't be beat. Sad -_- | ||
| 19 Jul 21:00 2017 | | The new leaderboard submits at the end of the game. You can't loop. Hitting max isn't the same. Though it's probably possible in one game if you're crazy about it. | ||
| 19 Jul 21:10 2017 | | You can't get any more points, after u achieve 6553500 score. I tested this today, and i can't get any more of point's. That's why 13 people in leaderboard High Score have exactly this number of score 6553500. | ||
| 20 Jul 1:35 2017 | | I know. The top two leaderboards on the list are retired now. Check the forum for details. | ||
| 30 Jul 3:00 2017 |  | i am excite | ||
| 30 Jul 21:14 2017 | | A game's wall really isn't the ideal place for bug reports. Better to use the ticket system or just pm the dev. If you do use the wall to report bugs it's really ideal to delete your comment if the bug is fixed so it's not confusing to other users. | ||
| 30 Jul 23:55 2017 |  | Achievement problems are mentioned here for the purpose of alerting the community. It should not remain a private matter when there is an issue. Other players deserve to know about it. | ||
| 31 Jul 2:04 2017 | | Fair enough. If you want alert the community in that way, be sure to remove alerts that have been corrected to avoid confusion and only post information that is relevant to the community. | ||
| 31 Jul 3:11 2017 | | If you're leaving old bug posts on game page walls you're misinforming the community. For anyone, please remove such posts if you read this. | ||
| 31 Jul 4:57 2017 | | "I Have My Arms But I Must Scream" works and you're allowed to die. "Enemy Behind The Gates" also works now. | ||
| 5 Aug 17:42 2017 |  | No offense, but some of these 'new' achievements are really tedious. The whole game without crouching, even in stages 2&4 ? 'You have to jump and shoot before you land' ? Oo Seriously ? If anyone finds that it's a fun way to play the game, OK then. | ||
| 9 Aug 19:34 2017 | | I didn't find it to be too hard. I enjoyed it cuz I had to break my habit. And you have plenty of lives to do it | ||
| 10 Aug 11:21 2017 | | hehe, I agree 100% with you, except for the 'enjoy' part. ;-) Anyway, nice job to the one who makes these achievements, it must be a lot of time/work to create them. | ||
| 5 Sep 13:54 2017 |  | for some reason i didn't receive hydrophobia ima try again but it might be broken | ||
| 26 Sep 6:30 2017 |  | contra kicks ass | ||
| 7 Apr 17:21 2018 |  | i have US rom and J rom, and i cant work achievements. Can you help me? | ||
