How to unlock the Hardest Mudokon in the West achievement in Oddworld: Soulstorm - Definitive Guide
Similar to Too Pure For This World , this trophy must be earned in a Good playthrough as the last two levels are required. Therefore you are advised to work on this during Step 2 of the Roadmap during your Good playthrough.
Whilst it may seem daunting at first, completing each level without dying isn't that bad once you've completed the game once and got a feel for the game, the environments and the enemies. Best of all, there's a nice little workaround to make things incredibly easier. If you die, just close the application and restart the game. You'll be back at your most recent checkpoint and will be free to carry on as if nothing happened. You can enable Streamer Mode in the pause menu to see confirmation that your deaths will still be zero. Don't try to go for this trophy in Level Select as you can't save your game at individual checkpoints so you would have to do the whole level without failing once. This obviously makes the game a lot harder so do it in the Good playthrough as suggested.
Make sure you backtrack if possible to activate a different checkpoint for a fresh save. You never know when that will come in handy to avoid having to repeat the same tasks too many times. If you like, after completing each level you can quit to the main menu and choose Level Select to check that you have completed each level without dying. There will be a white skull and bones icon to indicate that you have completed the level without dying.
There aren't many other tips to give for this as you'll be familiar enough with the game to know what to do to not die. It may be frustrating having to close the game a few times (or more!) per level, but be patient and you'll have this trophy in no time.

Turn on the streaming mode to feel comfortable, it displays the number of character deaths. There were several times that I didn’t have time to close the game before appearing at the checkpoint, but I re-entered and the counter showed 0 deaths, at the end of the level the shard appears

Get this trophy immediately when you reach the good ending. Having died during the first playthrough, and finding ourselves at a checkpoint, we calmly close the game via the ps button, and restart the game via continue (a 100% method I tested on PS5). Track deaths through the in-game menu enabled in the settings. If you put this trophy aside for replaying the chapters, then you, like me, will find that after a restart the continue button is not active. That is, the level must be completed in one gulp....
Most likely, when playing for the first time, if you accidentally didn’t quit and your death counter shows 2, you just need to restart the level from the beginning. Unfortunately, I haven't tried it myself.
In my case, I messed up on 2 levels. And now I’m faced with a dilemma - to replay the whole game again for a good ending (saving a lot of eccentrics, which is long and tedious), or to grind through 2 levels until I complete them in one gulp without dying (which will most likely cost the joystick torn to shreds). And this despite the fact that I thought that I had a couple of medals left to reach platinum, and go to the bad ending of 15 levels (Going to the bad ending, without saving the weirdos, you get access to only 15 of 17 levels, therefore you don’t die in all levels will not work).
In general, don't repeat my mistake, hunters.
