I have had clarification from the developer regarding this achievement.
Normal difficulty may just about get you 600,000 points if you kill all enemies and anything else you can find. But the way to guarantee it is to complete the game on Hard difficulty.

Had a little over 500,000 on my first normal difficulty run. Looks like hard mode it is then. Cheers mate!

Damn. Not looking forward to a hard run myself. And you’re welcome.

Is there a scoring trick on hard mode? I'm playing on hard and can get away without dying but not able to clear nearly enough to get my points up due to enemy health. Without dying I'm at level 10 but only have a little more than 250,000 and doesnt seem like I'll make 600,000 before the end at this rate.

Is there a trick to get the 600k, because 51% have it at XBL

Yeah I'd like to know the source of that too,
Dark Reaper XZX or even why you
think that’s the case ... especially since
ekxotnreekmoe unlocked it a week ago...???

It's patched...
Only 500k needed now to unlock it, but if reached previously you have to replay it...

Thanks for the update
HoHe69 
Oh & congrats on getting the achievement
You still need to play on Hard to reach that amount,right?

It's possible in normal mode...
I scored 538k in the end but u need rocket, companion, shield and last weapon to max for the most time in last stage

Oh great news, guess it's time to give it another try then

Just unlocked this on Normal.
120k after 1st boss.
315k after 2nd boss (I think)
Popped in 2nd to last level.
Used the bounce weapon all the way as soon as I had it maxed, had the best mix of coverage and stopping power. Skipped anything that wasn't shield, health, or bomb after to avoid taking damage switching back. Restart if you die so you keep powerups and bombs. Save bombs for world 3, especially as you near 500k so you can spam them then delete this turd.

Was able to get this achievement on the last level on hard after was only at 250,000 around the halfway mark so keep grinding away. Found for me the best powered up weapon was the one on far right, little bullets. Also, once I acquired rockets and helpers and if I died I would return to the main menu in game and restart level. Luckily, it saves your score when doing that.

So as I recently unlocked this I have to say that while everything Mr.Beaver says in his guide is accurate, I found it MUCH easier to get on Normal difficulty mainly because it takes a lot more firepower to take down enemies on Hard so it not only gets a lot harder to get through a level but doing it with significant more points than you'd get in Normal mode is IMO pretty much impossible.
Oh & I got the achievement just as I started the last level & I certainly didn't get 100% kills, maybe 80% when I finally got a powerful enough weapon before that it was more like 70-75%, some enemies are almost impossible to take out so I'd only focus on those if there was nothing else to shoot on the screen ... Good Luck 🍀
