How to unlock the YOU SCORED 20000 points! achievement in The VideoKid - Definitive Guide
It can be a little tricky at the end. If you know what to do it becomes a lot easier. A car will come out and throw things at you, you can either jump or move quickly. After you gotta go in front of their car to dodge getting hit then press B to jump over and quickly move left. After there is one more street to reach Jessica. It seems a lot easier to stay on the curb to the left. If you see the statepuff marshmallow man then quickly move to the middle. Go in the middle at the end to get some good money too. To see it being done check out my video below.
My achievement walkthrough:
The course is 1634 meters long and there are about 35 red postal boxes that you need to throw VHS tapes at.
Every time you are successful it will say 'Nice Delivery 25 cents' so stay to the left and middle lanes of the course and focus on delivering the VHS tapes.
Completing the course nets you a bonus 5,000 points as well as 1,000 points for every VHS tape you deliver so you will get well over 20,000 points on this run.
When you complete the course, you get 5000 bonus points, plus 1000 points for every videotape you delivered. You’ll also earn points for grinding on cars/obstacles and hitting miscellaneous items with the videotapes (see below). As long you as you deliver at least 15 tapes, you will be fine. The hardest part will actually be completing the course, so please see 3rd Time’s the Charm for more information on doing so.
The following is a breakdown of the points you get for the miscellaneous items:
At the beginning, before the first intersection:
- Hitting the Fraggle Rock Characters: 200 Points each
- Hitting the California Raisins: 200 Points each
- Hitting the Care Bears: 200 Points each

You'll be very close to 20,000 points by the time you reach Jessica (at about 1600 Metres) so long as you're throwing videotapes the whole time. The next screen displays your bonus points and will push you over the requirement and unlock the achievement.
