Read Knuckles555's solution. It's awesome.
However, there's a comment by Illum1na that should really be seen by those looking to get this achievement.
I played all six playthroughs and barely had enough gold for the next-to-last upgrade. Time to go farming!
Level 9 will net you a decent amount of gold, but it gets grindy real quickly, especially with the four puzzles where it feels like you're just standing around waiting.
I used Illum1na's method as well as level 9, and I think the former went by much faster. Load level 12 Conclusion on Casual. The Little Giant will drop a toy soldier at the beginning. Kill him and take his sword. You need this sword! Dodge a couple traps and Little Giant will drop two more soldiers, this time lucid, cork-shooters. Attack them from the right side so you don't accidentally stick Little Giant in the eye. The boss fight will not progress. At all. He'll simply keep dropping more soldiers. Use your RT move anytime it's full, since it will fill up again soon.
Your main goal is to collect the bright green rolling jewels. Everything else is secondary.
Once you get around 400,000 the game will start to slow down because of all the cork shooters lying around. At around 800,000 it will start to crawl to a halt. I suggest farming about 700,000 or so, and then finish off Little Giant and do it again. If you die while fighting him (I did!), just respawn quickly and run after your dropped money. Then continue on.
I was surprised how quickly this went with Illum1na's method. You'll be fully upgraded and probably done with this game before you know it. =) |
