How to unlock the POWER UP! achievement

    There is a total of 150 crystals to find. Since there are no levels or checkpoints, I have broken the map down into areas around the telerouters. I recommend unlocking all of your abilities to get the glider and the crystal locator. The locator will add a signal bar in the bottom right-hand corner that fills up as you get closer to a crystal.

    Below, I've included a list of the 29 telerouters that I use, the number of crystals found in each area, and the timestamp to find it all in the video. Please, let me know if you have any questions or if you find a mistake.

    Happy Hunting!

    EverStoned77lilyhello202 try "path to the moon" as stated in the comments above beyond that, there's really no way to help you with this, if it's not on the path to the moon, you'll simply have to go through the guide step by step as there's absolutely NO way of telling where you've missed one roll Good luck wave

    After you've completed the story, or once you've obtained all of the abilities you will have the glider and crystal detector. The glider allows you to easily reach far away places which are around the same level or below your altitude. The crystal detector uses a distance level bar similar to a network connection bar on a phone to show you how close you are to crystals in the area.

    Use a variety of useful plants to reach the crystals. Pollen shooting floraforms allow you to reach large heights. The ground based flowers are found very easily. You get one near the start of the game. There are other more powerful ones like the Splocket, Gloweaf and Starfloot, which shoot you even higher. Plants like the trebouquet launch you with a parabolic trajectory. The flungus provides provides you with a smaller horizontal throw. Heliconica makes its own air current for you to ride. This provides a slow and steady lift, so that you have enough to react, move around and avoid bouncing off of your target. It's useful for gems which are under rocks, where letting go will make you fall away from your intended target. If you have to go straight across water, then bobblers are perfect. They float like lilypads, allowing you to cross water without having to risk falling in it. Flightbulbs are plants which grow bubbles which slowly and steadily lift you upwards, while also allowing you to ascend for a long time before they pop, around the kind of increase in altitude which sporchids give you. Sporchids give you quick altitude gains of up to around 400m. Use two a more stable, quicker and larger climb.

    Use other guides to obtain crystal locations. FredInTheHead provides a Youtube video by Mindless Walkthroughs with timestamps to the moments when the player visits each of the 29 teleporters. Most of the crystals are located close to the teleporters or at locations which aren't too difficult to access from them. Visit each one and look for crystals around them. Some may be above or below your location. Others may also be around an island. Use plants that fling you or flowers that blast you upwards to gain altitude or quickly cross islands. Combinations of the glider and air brake allow you to access hard-to-reach locations. Use these, and various plants to move vertically and revolve around areas to find crystals. When you remove a crystal while both hands are grabbing it, you'll detach from the surface in which it was rooted. Make sure you quickly glide back to the surface using the glider or airbrake if you want to stay and collect more crystals or use this altitude level to reach another location. Crystals can be organized by altitude. You can start high, and glide or fall to each one. You can also collect them from the bottom to the top of an area if you have the right plants and geography around you.

    DantheWhale pointed out, "There is also a crystal on the outer asteroids if there is one crystal you are missing." If you're missing a crystal or have only a few left to find, search this location, as it's easy to miss. Use another guide or video to find the location of it.

    Keep collecting crystals until you have all 150 to unlock the achievement. As you collect them, you obtain more power bars, which lets you throw larger groups of seeds and use thrust for longer. The achievement counter goes up by 1 percent for every 1.5 gems found, so 3 gems will make it go up by 2 percent.
