As the achievement says, you need to complete the orb game without losing a node to the orange spheres. You also aren't allowed to lose a line, either - the orange orbs contacting either an in-progress node or an in-progress line will cause you to miss this achievement. (Touching a completely line/node is fine.)

To play the orb game, you need to connect the dots in turn so that all of the orbs are connected. To start, simply click on the active (glowing) node, and drag to an unused node. It's okay for your lines to cross; but note that the lines will follow the path you draw, it doesn't find the straight-line path between the two nodes.

If an orange orb touches the destination node, or the growing line between the two, the line will shatter. If that happens, go ahead and hit the Reset button in the upper right. Resetting the puzzle allows you to continue attempting the achievement; there's no need to quit or deal with backup copies of your save.

There's a cheap trick that will allow you to easily get this achievement. While the Instructions window is open, the orange orbs will freeze - but an in-progress node will continue/complete. So you can draw the line, hit the Instructions button, then wait for it to finish; close the window; and move on to the next line.

In this mini-game you will need to draw connection lines between nodes and then allow them to fill in that line (takes a couple seconds depending on the length of the line. While this part is happening the roving orange dots CANNOT touch any part of your line or the two end nodes you are connecting.

This may sound hard but is not that bad if you watch the orange balls and time it right.

Couple things:
1) There is no time limit, so just be patient. watch for the orange balls to move away and ensure that their path will not have them hit something and ricochet right back at you.

2) Try to draw the lines joining the shortest possible distances. You may also want to consider drawing lines in ways that can trap roving orange nodes behind then indefinitely, removing obstacles for you drawing further lines.

3) If you get hit, just hit the restart button in the top right ASAP before it has a chance to save the fact that you got hit. You then can retry just the puzzle you are on without incurring that penalty. i.e. if you reset with one line left on the 3rd puzzle, you just restart the third puzzle, not from #1.

Every time I've gone through I've connected the nodes in a different order so choice the path that will work for you, but most of all...be patient!
