Planning note: the group labels are editorial, not official Steam categories. Global rates are a snapshot and may move daily. A checked box here is only your own note; it does not confirm that Steam has awarded the achievement.
A sensible completion order
You can earn achievements in many different orders. This is a planning sequence, not a required route.
1
Let the opening route happen naturally
Start with Getting started, Who stole my beer, Getting an upgrade, and Dinnertime while learning the Lighthouse and Forest progression. Use the Island Progression guide when you need the next story gate.
2
Mix normal play with combat challenges
Noob, Impressive, 360 no scope, Let me go, Grillmaster, and Yummy in my tummy can be pursued while you explore. Do not delay story hand-ins just to force a special challenge on the first attempt.
3
Keep collection goals separate
Collector and Fishipedia ask for broad creature completion. Use the Fishipedia tracker for collection planning, and treat special catches such as Drip creatures as their own targets.
4
Leave challenge runs for a prepared attempt
Bean requires finishing within 1 hour, while Handyman requires defeating the final boss with bare hands. The Bean guide and timer can help plan a focused run, but neither the timer nor this checklist can unlock Steam achievements for you.
Achievement FAQ
Are these the official achievement names?
Yes. The 28 names and descriptions on this page were checked against the official Steam Community achievement page on August 28, 2026. The planning groups are added by this guide and are not official Steam labels.
Does the tracker sync with Steam?
No. It uses localStorage in this browser only. It does not ask for a Steam login, read your profile, send analytics, or modify game files. Clearing browser data can remove the checklist.
Can I use Easy Mode for Bean?
Current community routes commonly discuss Easy Mode, but the official Patch 1.0.9 announcement checked for this page does not explicitly guarantee Bean eligibility on Easy Mode. Treat the setting as version-sensitive and confirm the result in your current build.
What is the difference between Collector and Fishipedia?
Steam's official descriptions distinguish them: Collector asks you to find and kill all creatures, while Fishipedia asks you to find and kill all drip creatures. The game may present additional collection context, so use the current in-game encyclopedia as the final authority.
Why are some Steam percentages missing or changing?
Global achievement percentages change as the player population changes. If Steam does not expose a percentage in the current page capture, this page leaves it as “Not shown” rather than inventing a value. The official name and description remain the primary data.
Sources and limits
Checked August 28, 2026. The official Steam Community achievement page lists 28 achievements, their names, descriptions, and the displayed global unlock percentages. Steam is the source of truth for the official list.
The official Patch 1.0.9 announcement was also checked for difficulty and achievement-related context. It does not explicitly guarantee that Bean is eligible on Easy Mode, so this page does not make that claim. The separate Bean route is labeled as community planning information.
This is an unofficial fan-made guide and has not been verified by hands-on play in this project. The tracker is a private browser convenience tool; it does not unlock Steam achievements or represent a confirmed Steam account state. Re-check achievement descriptions after major patches or newly added content.
