Introduction
This is a guide on how to collect all the things in Here Comes Niko! I left out the locations of most of the quest givers, as I think half the fun of the game is finding them.
**Note**Keep in mind that this is still a work-in-progress. I'm contemplating adding some videos or images to clarify locations even more (pictures are worth a thousand words, right?), but I feel this should do for now.

Other Collectables
Super JumpIn Tadpole HQ you can trade 250 apples for the ability to super jump. Super jump costs 10 apples to execute, and you do so by holding the jump button until Niko flattens out.
The End
Whelp. I think that's everything (minus the things that are missing - like the mysteriously missing Handsome Frog locations)!
Leave rating if this helped out, or a comment if something is unclear.
