I got all achievements today, so can confirm that they are "achievable", one detail to maybe mention for A Parting Gift achievement: you can give the fish bones to Onyx after he switches off the TV.

Oh and rush game achievement did not work for me. I am 100% shure i was under 120 minutes.
So 2 achievements do not work in this game. Thsi is not the first time that games do not bring 100%.

Parting Gift is broken and does not work. I had to use a hacking tool to get the achievment. Sometimes steam is shit.

Tnx to you for the specification, I honestly I never noticed it while playing, or if I noticed I forgot.

Actually there is chapter select, it's right there at the bottom of the screen when you start the game, and it works for achievements.

Of course for those achievements that span across two chapters, one would have to play continuously through the starting chapter that involves a specific achievement and then the necessary bit of the next one. This guide conveniently outlines chapter numbers for such achievements. Thank you, @Comric, btw.

No there isn't.

Is there chapter select after completion ?
Comric  [author] Oct 15, 2021 @ 4:28pm 
In theory there should be no problem, I don't remember very well!
What you need to pay attention to, are the other two achievements that are very missable.

Is there any way to get a fish for the cat AFTER the bird starts taking fish out of the net? Or, do I need to restart the chapter?
