How to unlock the The Little Speedrun achievement in The Little Acre - Definitive Guide

EDIT: Credit to IEvil IMonkey and XBU Philippe.
Pausing will stop the timer. You can also quit to main menu, continue and get the achievement. You do not have to do this in one sitting.
***

Here's a video walkthrough. The full recording was about 56 minutes. Not sure if loading screens/cutscenes all count towards the 1 hour as there is no in-game stat/timer. Following this, you will get all story related achievements and I point out where and how to get most of the miscellaneous achievements. Some of them eat up precious time, so you may want to save the speedrun for a second playthrough and just get all the missable achievements out of the way first.

Thank you both for verification and clarification. My video was cutting it quite short and I wasn't sure how loading/saving, pausing impacts the time.

Please include in your solution, that pausing and quitting to the main menu (and loading and old save) does not contribute to the "one hour". This will allow you, even in a second playthrough, to get all missing achievements.

@XBU Philippe: Thanks for the pause/resume, quit/continue confirmation. My video is already complete speedrun, so I'm not sure why you include a link to another video. Is there a problem with my version?

I can confirm that you can keep pressing start to pause the game while you are reading/watching a walkthrough. and it will not count toward your time.

I still haven't got this? Just finished the game and the stats say I played for 40 minutes bang on? Will it pop later ?

Got it first try with the walkthrough on this site and these videos. ALWAYS pause when unsure what to do because it DOES pause the timer for this achievement. I can confirm this as of today from timing myself at over an hour with pauses and under an hour without.

Can verify pause menu stops time. Got this on first try just now.

I went for all the miscellaneous achievements my first time and still got this achievement. I quit to the main menu about 4 times. I missed the one where you attack the monster with Lily's sword in under 5 seconds. Other than that I was still able to get all the achievements (except the one for not using a hint.)

So, it appears that you can go for all the achievements the first time. It's probably better to do it that way so even if you don't get the speedrun achievement, you got all the other ones. I can't make any promises, as I didn't do anything else that the videos don't suggest.

Awesome guide as always Sangriaz!!!

I used these on my 1st run and got the speedrun achievement and all the others (apart from the NO HINT one)

It's also worth noting that when I used your guides I paused the game several times to see what you was doing next and still finished under an hour so pausing DOES NOT have an effect on actual game time

I can confirm: If you pause the game, this will not count towards your time. You can also quit out, close the game in the dashboard and press "continue" and still get the achievement (I did it this way, getting some other achievements I missed, too). It is pretty straight forward and easy to get, if you do everything just right. Also, there is a complete video of a speed run online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rNzEPbLepw

I used the site walkthrough for this, wasn’t particularly fast but was efficient, and when I got to the end (watched final cutscene and credits) the speedrun achievement didn’t pop. So it dropped me back on the home screen menu, and I needed to grab the ‘use a hint’ achievement so I just selected continue. It actually loaded me back to the final cutscene, which I let play while reading TA and the speedrun popped after it finished.

Could be that finishing the game, then hitting continue from the home page resets the timer and counted it was like a 45 second play through. Or it could be a delayed pop of the achievement I actually earned in the main run (the game has a delay problem).

I can’t confirm either way, but wanted to drop this note if someone misses the speedrun time and doesn’t want to replay this AGAIN- might at least be worth a try.

NOTE: There is no in-game timer.

I was able to complete the game in under 1 hour and obtain all other achievements using this guide provided by Maka91. When you pause the game, the timer stops as Maka states in the video so pause, watch the video and repeat. I would also like to say that if you fail whilst trying for
The Little AcreBut if you turn it this way …The But if you turn it this way … achievement in The Little Acre worth 65 pointsonly placed the orb once
simply hit the cn_guide button then quit the game, reload and try until you succeed. Even though you are quitting the gameit still counts for the speedrun achievement. I failed twice but still got The Little Speedrun achievement so dont panic and good luck.

All credit goes to @PMaka91 on Twitter & his Youtube channel with loads more 100% video walkthroughs.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZojkqUeuaZyAQc8KaBNrJw

MISSABLE

The speedrun trophy is best to be saved for your second playthrough when you know the solutions to all the puzzles and can breeze through the game. It took me around 50 minutes to complete the game the second time around, and I was hunting for other trophies during this playthrough. There is plenty of time to spare.

*MISSABLE*

The most important thing to note here is that pausing stops the timer. So if you need to consult a guide, go to the bathroom, or whatever, you can pause the game without worrying about losing time. Another important thing to note is that if you feel like you took too long on a section, or if you took long because you were getting miscellaneous achievements, you can dashboard out and reload and play that section of the game again (assuming you didn't get a checkpoint) and it won't count against you.

While this may seem tight at first, there is enough time to even get all of the miscellaneous achievements and still finish the game in under an hour. Just make sure you know what to do in each section, either by consulting a guide or after having played through the game once already, and this achievement will be a piece of cake.

If, for example, you are going through a video game, then you can use pause, press it and the timer will stop, watch the desired action, and then continue to battle
