Done this twice now and nothing. Glitchy, amateur ass game.

Popped 3rd time after another chapter select.

Can confirm this one is glitchy. Took a few restarts for it to pop.

Yeah there wasn't anything glowing so I continued on hoping it would unlock in the next cutscene. Not too much trouble just chapter select after the end.

On chapter select go to The return of the prodigal it's the closest chapter to it just head right for the carousel figured I'd add this cause I had a little trouble figuring out which one it was.

I made a short video guide for this achievement, and the whole fixing part of the Balloon attraction. The first two parts entail of you getting up top to the carousel. The last, and third video shows you the final part and shows me getting the bottle. I wasn't going to upload the first two parts, but people wanted me to show a solution for the whole puzzle, so I uploaded those too.

This bottle is located on the backside of the roof that you end up to untie the hot air balloon. After you make your way up the shadow carousel, you will arrive on the roof. Just head to the right (the back side of the roof) and on a little veranda you will see a glowing Orange indicator. This is the bottle, simply interact with it (press Square) and the Trophy is yours.

Safety note - As soon as you untie the balloon, you will be automatically transported back to the ground so be sure to grab this (as well as the 3 luminaries) on your way up if you don't want to brave the Carousel climb a second time.

During Act II when you need to use the carousel to get up to untangle the blimp, you'll get to a part where you have to shadow dash through stars. Up on the roof area is where you'll find the Cyclops bottle.
