Neon Abyss Achievement Guide

Main Game

All of these can be unlocked on easy unless specified, but you may want to get used to playing on hard if you plan on 100%'ing the game. You will get most of these achievements by playing the game.

--------Argus, God of Darknet--------

You can find him on the 5th floor

First Light

Defeat God of Darknet

Action Supremacist

Defeat Argus (God of Darknet) without picking up any items

You can pick up bombs, health, shields and eggs, but anything else is pretty much off the table for picking up. No guns or relics from the start of your run to the killing of this boss. Start as a class that has no starting items as well!

--------Hal,God of Machines--------

-------- Ares, God of Violence --------

You can find him on the 8th floor

Stay Calm

Defeat God of Violence

You need to have the 4th mission unlocked for the coin/token to spawn

To get to the 8th floor, you need to get the red token. It has a chance of spawning after you pick up a item from the Ares alter room. To get to the room you have 4 options that all result in the same thing, filling up the red bar on the bottom right. This can be done by damaging shop doors, they will turn red and cost a heart to enter, same with shooting purple chests, you will then get a red variant that costs a heart to open. The third way is if you have unlocked the crystal random spawns. Shoot one of those and they will turn red and you will take a half heart of damage running in to it. The final way to get some progress on the bar is to take a hit of damage in a room with enemies. It will only work once per room, so getting hit more will just loose health for no reason.

Once the bar is filled this message will appear. Head to a crystal and you should be able to teleport to a new area on the outskirts of your map. In that room you can pick a item, and if your lucky the coin will spawn. If it dosent, there is no need to end your run, you can get multiple of these rooms on a run. Maximum 1 per floor, but you can start filling up the gauge for the next floor on your current one.

Take the token and kill Zues, God of Electricity. A portal should now open up taking you to the new 8th floor. This has to be done every time you want to go there.

-------- Athena, Goddess of Illusion --------

You can find her on the 8th floor

Seek the Truth

Defeat Goddess of illusion

You need to have the 5th mission unlocked for the coin/token to spawn

To get to the 8th floor, you need to get the purple token. It has a chance of spawning after you pick up a item from the Athena alter room. To get to the room you have 4 options that all result in the same thing, filling up the purple bar on the bottom right. This can be done by opening shop doors with crystals. Opening crystal chests. Giving a crystal to a random alter spawn (if you have it unlocked), Clearing a room without getting hurt. If you get hurt in a room you will loose progress on the bar.

Take the token and kill Zues, God of Electricity. A portal should now open up taking you to the new 8th floor. This has to be done every time you want to go there.

I'm Fine

Complete a run without recovering any hearts

Mihoteo suggest's using the character R-6, since he has no health containers and dose not gain any health on picking up mouldy hearts, that's smart thinking!

Safety First

Complete a run without getting hurt

I cant find a way to go back and re-do the first mission, So i just created a new save file. If you are having a really good run but get a unlucky hit, or a moldy heart drop in front of the door causing unavoidable damage. You can force close the game and re-open it. It will put you back to the start of the floor. The relic room will be different but the layout and enemies and most of the drops stay the same.

Main Game Plus

The Real Game

Unlock abyssal difficulty

This one is a bit confusing, When you select Hard difficulty you should see some dots above it. If not, don't worry that's what we will be working on getting. We need it to show 5 dots, and then complete a run on hard, and abyssal difficulty should unlock. Be cautious, it may not stay unlocked.

How to get a dot? Kill Ares and Athena on the same character on Hard Difficulty.

* Killing Cursed Ares or Cursed Athena, and then Promethus will not unlock a extra dot.

How to loose a dot? Die on a run . . . good luck!

How to check your progress for what boss still needs to be killed? On the character select screen at the bottom, you can see your progress on the boss's along with the dot progression.

Ultimate Challenge

Defeat Goddess of illusion on abyss difficulty

keep on restarting your run until you get a shop on the starting room so you can start building your Wisdom points and get the token fast along with a free item.

---------MISC----------

The rest of the achievements from this point on wards are going to be tiring to grind, and more fun to just play the game let unlock naturally. I will be including some tips in case you are specifically hunting one down.

Rugged Tenacity

Acquire 8 heart containers in a single run

Moldy hearts is what i think is a required upgrade to get this, you can also get a pet (peter) that turns regular hearts in to moldy hearts, giving you more chances to get a extra heart container. There are items that give a single upgrade to health, that may take a while and be very rng dependant to find 8 of them in a run.

Shields Up!

Acquire 8 shields in a single run

Blue Doctor is a amazing pet to have, he will turn heart containers on the ground in to shields, dont pick any up for a floor and you should hopefully have 8, if not go the next floor and try to not get hit and repeat until you got 8.

Grim Squad

Unlock 6 characters

There's only 1 character per skill tree, each time they cost the same amount of 10 gems to unlock. There are a total of 10 (including DLC) to unlock. It only wants the 6 from the base game skill tree.

Bug Squisher

Stepped on worms 999 times

If you really want to farm for this one. George, God of Pills spawns the bats that become worms, through out his whole boss fight. Avoid killing the boss and just go for the bats, He will keep on re-spawning them.

Key Master

Opened 999 locked chests

The Vending machine presents in the shop, counts as chests.

Going fishing is another great way of getting a ton of chests

I believe i Can Fly

Jumped 10 times ion the air before landing

Try out the Lemon Jelly (Tree 5, 8 Gems). It will give you a added jump for every egg following you. There are other items that increase jump by a single amount and can help stack to get this achievement, but i thought Lemon Jelly to be easiest.

Burning Ground

Jumped 999 times

Abyss Veteran

Entered the abyss for the 999th time

someone, please write a script for this

Thank you Andr3wWw for writing a script for this achievement. It will keep on restarting your current dungeon until you stop the script. F5 to start it. F6 to stop it. Make sure you have AutoHotKey Installed to run this/write your own. The timing may not be 100% perfect and may result in a missed cycle, either way its better than doing it manually.

Don't Panic

Eggs

Mom's Love

Successfully hatch eggs 5 times in a row

Sad Eggs

Failed to hatch eggs 5 times in a row

rng, have fun!

Use Ming (Tree 5, 10 Gems) to get Mom's Love and Sad Eggs. If you see a egg with nothing in it. cancel it and repeat 5 times, and vice versa for the other one.

Sovereign of Eggs

Get 50 eggs in a single run

There are a couple methods to get so many eggs on a single run. You could try and find the item called "Knife and Fork" which increases the chance a enemy has to drop a egg if you kill them with melee damage (or a gun that dose melee damage) and try and get 50 before they start hatching.

*This achievement was broken for a year, but as of the anniversary update, it is fixed!

Mini Games / Locked Rooms

Most of these rooms need to be unlocked, I'll be listing what page and the cost for each.

Shopping Maniac

You may want to hold off on upgrading the amount of items the store sells until you get this achievement, you may end up making more work for your self in the future.

Fishing Joy

Fished 10 times in fishing room

Tree 3, 8 Gems, might want to bring some money, every 5 times in a row you successfully fish, the price and rewards go up. They reset if you make a mistake and go back down to 5 gold.

Piano Virtuoso

Complete the piano challenge 10 times

Tree 1, 4 Gems. Having more than one jump makes this less difficult.

Sherlock

Found 5 secret rooms in a row

Page 1, 5 Gems. It has upgrades on other pages that will allow secret rooms to be more visible on other floors, instead of just bombing random walls. There are also items in the abyss that will reveal secret room locations for you, if you get one of those, make sure to check every secret room you can.

Born Gambler

Key Counter: Tree 4, 5 Gems

Egg Counter: Tree 5, 5 Gems

There are five different vendors to unlock. If you really wanted to grind out this achievement, the coin vendor takes 10 at a time, but the egg vendor only takes 1, so you could try and stack eggs and coins and just keep on turning them in like no tomorrow.

Saturday Night Fever

Dance in the bar for 30 minutes (seriously)

Press E to dance at the club. This needs to be done consecutively . If you minimize the game your character will stop dancing and you will need to restart the 30 minutes. It may take a minute or two extra for the achievement to pop. You can check on mobile or another computer, by looking up your steam name and checking out the profile, you should be able to see your most recent achievements in your most recent game, if it hasn't popped yet, just let it idle.
