Skip Rooms

It is not always necessary to complete a room in Creature in the Well in order to bypass it. Most rooms can be bypassed providing you have the power to open the door. Keep in mind though that the room will probably contain a lot of power to be absorbed. You also need to remember that fully completing a room and it's puzzle will sometimes lead to a secret room which may contain a weapon or an old core. It is therefore recommended that you play it safe and complete all the rooms.

How to get the Backup Power Achievement/Trophy

To get the Backup Power achievement/trophy you need to generate a total of 2,000,000 power. You should be able to get this during the course of the game as you continue to charge, the required total is cumulative which means you do not have to hold 2,000,000 power at the same time. You can keep track of your progress by going to the 'Pause' menu, then 'Settings', and then scrolling to the bottom for 'Stats'. As soon as you reach 2,000,000 power you will unlock the Backup Power achievement/trophy.

How to get the Oh...Shiny! Achievement/Trophy

To get the Oh...Shiny! Achievement/trophy you need to find a secret strike tool. You will be able to do this in the Archives level when you progress through it and come across 2 rooms which you can enter from the bottom, and have paths leading left, right, and up. Enter the second of these rooms and take the left path. This will eventually lead you to a room which is full of bumpers that is a dead end. However, in the next-to-last room there is a secret path on the right side which opens up once all the bumpers in the dead end room have been cleared. If you follow the secret path you will get the Focus Hammer and the Oh...Shiny! Achievement/Trophy.

How to get the The North Star Achievement/Trophy

To get The North Star achievement/trophy you must save Mirage from the sandstorm. The easiest way in which to do this is to use the Fan Blade tool when you are low on health and stand in any of the orange/red beams while charging. This will allow you to absorb free health. Remember to also do this against the last boss when you need a health boost.

Switch Weapons

There are many weapons with unique traits on offer in Creature in the well, and you should take advantage of them whenever possible by swapping weapons according to your situation. Whenever you find yourself low on health during a boss fight you should consider quickly switching to the Fan Blade as this tool will enable you to absorb some free health from orange orbs before swapping to something else once you have your health boost. Remember also that you can switch weapons while you are charging.
