How to unlock the Shovel Nightmare achievement in Rare Replay - Definitive Guide
BTW, B to Jump. A with the shovel to swing.
From the beginning of level 1: Dig down -> Dig Right -> Jump over pressure plate column -> Jump up 2 stairs and you are there. There's a row of rocks you can jump on that spawns mobs out of either side two at a time. Two on the left, two on the right, two on the left, etc. I just sat on the left side and killed the mobs over and over. Works the same as the Level 2 place but spawns much quicker.
You might be able to jump back and forth to do it quicker, but that didn't work well for me.
Make sure to have the cheats on to make it easier. You should get this in no time!
Each skeleton is worth 200 points and I managed to get 2000 points on some skeletons.
I checked my method by having the achievement snapped on the screen and yes, after killing 5 skeletons the bar for the achievement jumped a good 6%.
Here, you need to defeat a cumulative total of 250 enemies, across all playthroughs of the game. You're unlikely to unlock this naturally from a single playthrough of the game, but this can easily be farmed. In particular, cavern five features certain enemies that will respawn infinitely, so you can just stay in these areas attacking the enemies with your shovel until you reach the required cumulative total. Alternatively, you can make a manual save before defeating any enemy or group of enemies, defeat them, then reload and repeat as necessary.
Note that you can't use the rewind function to work towards this achievement.
