How to unlock the No Time To Explain achievement in A Hat in Time - Definitive Guide
There's a very easy way to obtain this achievement but you'll need to wait after unlocking the last hat (the Time Stop Hat in World 4).With this hat,you'll slow down the timer and you'll have a lot of extra time.With this method i unlocked the achievement in my 1st try with 27 seconds left.
Use the Fast Hatter Badge to reduce the cooldown of the hat.Very useful !
Also here's my video of my 1st try of this achievement.You'll see that i made some mistakes,so it's very easy with this hat ^^
Be careful to never collect any time bonus or you'll need to restart the level.You can fall into the void.You just can't loose all your 4 lives.
Happy hunting !
for time tips- you should reach outside with about 78-85 seconds left and about 50 seconds when you swing back into the final cart.
I was able to finish with about 10 seconds left with two fck ups in the beginning so you can make one or two mistakes but not many.
Items Needed: Sprint Hat, Scooter Badge, And A Little Bit Of Skill
Get To Know The Level Before You Do It! Its Very Important That You Do!
Tip: Look Out For The Time At The Beginning.
If You Die Then You Need To Exit To Hub Then Go Back In.
Good Luck!
Train Rush is a level in Battle of the Birds where you need to run to the end of the train and hit a button there. You need to be wearing the Sprint Hat and using its power, by pressing , to sprint through most of the level while making sure not to pick up the clock pickups and avoiding the many projectiles coming at you! You can take damage but if you die or jump into any of the clock pickups, you will have to Return to the Hub and restart the level. Most of the stage is a straight line but personally, I found the hardest part of the stage to be when you end up on the roof of the train and have to jump some quite large gaps. If you fall here, you will be teleported quite a distance back, which can ruin your chances of getting to the end in the allotted time. This might take a bit of practice just to know where the projectiles are going to come from but if you can get through that roof section first time you should make it to the end with around 10 seconds left on the clock.
Here is a video by Dan for reference:
Once you unlock the time hat, simply play the train level without picking up any time bonuses, and make sure to use your hat as often as you can. This will unlock without much difficulty.
The Time Stop Hat is also a very effective method but you usually unlock that Hat way further into the game.
It's all down to personal preference.
Here's how I did it:
You need to complete the dungeon without COLLECTING BONUSES, you can die
Wear the Time Stop Hat
Abilities: Hookshot Badge, umbrella (get up faster when falling) Hover Badge, and Fast Hatter Badge (reduces ability cooldown)
