How to unlock the The Purge achievement in Battletoads - Definitive Guide
Act IV Stage 1
Here is my speedrun: 3:20 min.
I advise you to make this achievement in easy difficulty to get 5 lives and allow you to take more risk in places where there are spikes.
Don't hesitate to take damage to save time.
Restart the entire level if you die.
Edit: Unfortunately for change the difficulty of the game, you must create a new save.

I wouldn't even bother with this one on Battletoads difficulty, and I did all the other achievements on that difficulty. It takes an hour and a half roughly to get to this point and I got it first try with 3:57 where after countless attempts on Battletoads I was glad to get a 4:48.

Take damage to save time
Use the parachute as least as possible
If you die, restart the entire level

I just beat it in exactly 4 minutes and it did not pop, so it’s very specific that has to be 3:59 or under.

This is the EASY WAY to unlock this achievement. I just knocked this out within about 10 minutes with little practice.
1. Play on Easy difficulty.
2. Take damage to save time.
3. Do NOT use the parachute at all.
4. Use the dash at all times with the only exception being short distance with spikes.
*The trick is you can cheat the save system from check point to check point. Play a section and if you feel you could be faster or are about to die hit: Start, Quit & Continue from the title screen. You will start from the latest checkpoint at full health. The trial time you just did will not be counted. If you have a good section, then hit the next checkpoint (locking in that checkpoints time) and move on. Repeat for the next section. IF you die and the "hit X to continue" comes up. DO NOT HIT X. Hit the guide button and quit to the dashboard. Reload the game and hit Continue. The time you just spent again will not have been added to your total. This does involve some trial and error, but is SO MUCH EASIER than doing it in one continuous run. This trick also works for other timed levels in the game.

Yeah, this is definitely the way to do it. I couldn't get below around 4:20ish until I did this method. I did use the parachute a little for the end part and ended up finishing it in 3:57.

This guide was translated automatically.
It is not necessary to go through it again every time, each automatic save makes a save. If you die and the game asks you to press retry. Restart the game and continue. The game will start from the place where the last save was. If you are sure that you have not had any errors up to this point, you can continue playing. Relevant by the end of the mission)
