How to unlock the You killed that poor roach. achievement in Night in the Woods - Definitive Guide

In your first day back in town, you'll go to band practice and then to have a pizza with your friends. Immediately after that, you'll find something on the sidewalk outside the dinner.

You'll poke the thing with a stick, and a roach will run around the screen. Your objetive is to squish the insect with the tip of the stick. You'll have a limited time until another character appears, so my tip is to mash cn_X constantly while you chase the roach using cn_LS to control your arm.

If you aren't able to kill the roach before they interrupt you with some dialogue, hold cn_Y to exit the game, and choose "Continue". That way you'll be able to try again.

Holding Y to exit and continue just starts you at the dialogue again. No second chances.

Holding Y worked fine for me when the first part of dialogue pops up. Took me 3 or 4 tries to prod the wee beast to mush though!

I was busy reading this guide and didn't realize the ENTIRE arm scenario is timed. Dialog popped up so I dashboarded, upon Continue it was after the arm.

don't make my mistake... poke the arm right away to launch the roach, if it takes you more than 10 seconds just hold Y out BEFORE any dialog

Based on my play and a few videos I watched, you have at least 35 seconds before Aunt Molly interrupts. I had time to get the roach and roll up the sleeve to see the tattoo.

Walkthrough is GARBAGE!! It doesn't mention what you have to do. I'm sitting there waiting for the Roach to appear & time runs out. And the it says reloading will start over & it doesn't. Now I have to do it all over again. What Crap! angry

Thankfully, dashboarding on the either the first or second pieces of interruption dialogue put me to just before discovering the arm. I didn't risk pressing Y.
