Cyber Shadow

To unlock the Airtime achievement in Cyber Shadow, you’ll need to stay off the ground for 30 consecutive seconds. There are probably a few places where you could potentially pull off this gravity-defying feat, but this is the one where I found it easiest to execute consistently.


After completing the game, load back into that same save file. You’ll be at the checkpoint just before the final boss encounter. From here, drop all the way down through the middle of the tall room and exit through the door. This is where you want to be. Note that you can also reach it by fast travelling to the final stage and climbing up to the top of the second area, but that climb can be a pain, and the first method makes things much quicker to restart should anything go wrong.

Below you, there are three red orbs in a triangle pattern. The top and right ones will continually spawn tentacle enemies which don’t harm you on contact, and we’ll be using this helpful pair of horrors to pull off this hangtime miracle. Wait for the first to come out, then drop through the platform (down+A) and hit it with an Airstrike (down+X). Bounce off to the right, and double jump when you reach the second red light. Go for another Airstrike and you should bounce right off the second tentacle beast right as it spawns, at which point the top one should be about to respawn.


Once you’ve hit the lower one, you should (with proper timing) be able to loop Airstrikes and double jumps between these two enemies for the required 30 seconds. You may find you need to react to some odd situations, mind - Airstrike deals less damage when you have no SP, which lets you bounce off each of these enemies twice rather than once, although you need to react quickly if one of them drops an SP power-up and ends up turning your next pogo into a one-shot instead. And similarly, landing an Airstrike right as an enemy spawns seems to just give you the base version of the attack and allow for a second bounce, so be ready to respond accordingly.

There’s a power-up container in the middle of the triangle that you can bounce off as a kind of safety net if things go wrong, and you can respawn that by exiting and re-entering the room if needs be. With a little practise, this spot should hopefully help you unlock the Airtime achievement, so good luck!
