Save your game, quit out, and copy your entire save file.

Now you can use one of your files to complete the game Any% for two win screens, and the other to complete it 100% for the other two.

To complete the Any% run, head to stage 6, Risky's Hideout, and play through it.

For mop-up, we will revist Mermaid Falls, Tassel Town, and Cape Crustacean, to get the Dark Crystal chests we missed earlier.

7. Mermaid Falls: mop-up

8. Tassel Town: mop-up

9. Cape Crustacean: mop-up

Finally, head to Risky's Hideout and finish the game. If you're missing anything, check the map to see which level it's in.

The win screens appear (and the win screen achievement pops) after the credits.
