How to unlock the The Paths of Fate achievement

    There's three paths you probably missed while playing through normally. Once you've played through the full game, just use the level select option to pick which level you'd like to play. The achievement unlocks as soon as you find the last path - you don't need to finish the level. You can use any difficulty (I used easy to make it go faster) and die/continue as much as you want.

    1) In level 1 there you'll come to a talk in front of a box of TNT. Instead of going past it, crouch under that ledge and drop down. I finished the level and beat the last boss, but I'm not sure if that's necessary.

    2) In level 5, you'll go parachute down a few levels and enter a teleport tube, then drop down some more. When you get to the very bottom of this second part, run to the left instead of exiting to the right. It looks like a solid wall but it's really a secret passage. Follow this to a teleporter tube and take the tube. I'm not sure if you have to follow the level to the end and fight the last boss, but I did just to make sure it saved and counted.

    3) Play level 5 again and take the secret passage. This time, instead of taking the teleport tube, jump over it and exit to the left. Be careful with the jump timing - you have to jump right before the tube or you'll land on it and enter it. This will bring you to the alien base. For me, the achievement unlocked here.

    DinoHaxxSaurIf anyone still sees this, you have to take all possible paths in the game, not just the secret ones. So, if in level.one you took the secret path, you must go back into that level and take the normal path. Same goes on level 5, you must take all three possible paths in the level to get the achievement.

    Styles PluralFor those confused about the Mission 1 secret path. It is in the second section of the stage. Once you come to a tank in front of a giant TNT barrel, while standing on the platform below it, walk forward to drop below into the secret path. This is to clarify as there is a typo in the explanation.

    I'd like to share these three videos which pin-point exactly where these paths are located. I know Cheese Touch already has a top solution up for this achievement, but after you read his text guide, put your new found knowledge together with these videos to make this achievement even easier! toast
