 | Salsa 10 Aug 2016 13:09 All achievements are for normal difficulty or higher (unless it's specified in the description). Everything is protected against cheat codes. | ||
| | Salsa 10 Aug 2016 13:09 Using Mega Crush and collecting blue power-ups while doing "Galactic Hunter" achievements, may cause not getting desired achievement (every kill must be counted seperately). | ||
