How to unlock the Bub 'N Bob achievement in Lumo - Definitive Guide

As part of the story, in the final zone you'll find yourself tasked with throwing three switches in order. These turn on water, heat and fans, allowing a bubble to form giving you access to a previously impassable corridor. This is all part of the main game and is required for progression.
As the bubble rises from the pool, leap inside it! You can now navigate the maze of spikes, walls and flames by floating past them. As you do so, wait over floor fans to gain height and time your moves through the walls of flame to reach the opposite platform. With practice, not too bad.
The missable achievement here, however, is pretty tough until you get the timing down, as you have to get from the point where you jump into the bubble to the opposite platform without popping it and falling to your death.
The game auto-saves (in adventure mode) whenever you enter a new room, so DO NOT LEAVE THIS ROOM OR SAVE/QUIT WHILE PRACTISING! If you die and then do either, the achievement is void for this playthrough.
Once you're confident of the route and timing, exit to dashboard and force close. Reload the game and try to make it all the way in one go. If you do, leave the room to save and get your achievement. If not, repeat the above.
The toughest part is navigating through the choke point to the end - See my clip below for the correct timing.
With perseverance, you'll unlock it. Took me about ten attempts, obviously without this guide.
Good luck, and congrats on your Bubble Bobble related cheev!
As with EVERYTHING in Lumo - collecting the ducks, the missable cheevs such as this one etc - if it goes wrong, you HAVE to force quit the game. Everything else, even quitting to title, saves.
Sorry about the lack of a clip - next time I play through (I've gone through the game about 8 times from start to finish, and a good three quarters of the way in Arcade mode about four times), I'll record myself doing it again.

Near the end of the game, you will enter a room with vents, spikes and a pool of water that will create bubbles after turning on three switches located elsewhere. Make sure you back-up your save file before attempting this (although quitting the game after dying and reloading should be fine too). To get this trophy, you need to traverse the entire room while in a bubble without dying.
This trophy can be quite hard without a good strategy, and you definitely need to master this section for your Old School run. I highly recommend the following strategy and to watch THIS video: as soon as you enter the door, get into the bubble and gain max height from where you are. After that, move to the vent over the 1st spike wall to recover a bit of height, go over the spike wall in the middle, correctly position yourself over the vent before the set of flames to stay high and, when the flames disappear, go through paying attention to your shadow to avoid hitting the spikes on the sides (this is the hardest part). After that, go to the closest vent, gain height, go over the small spike wall, gain height while you wait for the flames to disappear, get through and you are done! This strategy always works and the only dangerous spot is when you go through the first set of flames where you can easily hit the spikes if you haven't lined up your shadow correctly.
Alternative easier method (credit goes to cr1s2412): instead of waiting once for the first set of flames to disappear, wait twice instead, which will give you enough height to cross this section without having to worry about potentially hitting the spikes (which can happen if you only wait once). It works every time and makes this part really easy. Check THIS video to see this method in action.

This achievement is missable!
Near the end of the game, the will have hit three switches to continue. When that is done you will need to go into a room with a pool at one end and fans, spikes and fire on the other. You need to jump in a bubble that comes out of the pool, then navigate through the spikes and fire using the fans to get the height. The achievement can be tough until you get the timing down, as it can be easy to fall to your death.

If... when you die, leave the room and come back, then the deaths are reset and you can try again
