Preface
I'll present the achievements in the order that Steam shows them to me on my profile's achievements page for the game, split into "Story Achievements" (which you get by playing the game from start to finish without doing anything special) and achievements you actually have to work for.

This does mean, however, that even "Story Achievements" won't be listed in story order.

My other guide on how to play/beat the game can be found here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2897499245
Story Achievements
CHOMP!
Get eaten by a shark for the first time.
Self-explanatory.

Lungs Full Of Water
Drown for the first time.
Self-explanatory.

Bad Connection
Attempt to radio Dominic on the ocean floor one time.
Self-explanatory. I think everyone who has played this game for at least 10 minutes has tried to radio Dominic, so like...

No Cage Can Hold Me
Free yourself from the shark cage.
Part of the story.

SWIM AWAY!
Swim all the way back to the boat.
Part of the story.

The Perfect Fratricide
Get killed by Dominic.
More or less part of the story. Everyone has a soft side, right? :)

Abel Slays Cain
Kill Dominic.
Part of the story.

It Tastes Air-riffic!
Reach the ocean's surface.
Part of the story.

Mr. Manta Ray Is Camera-Shy.
Scare off the manta ray with your phone's light.
While it's not technically part of the story, the game does literally suggest getting your phone out and taking a picture...
Achievements you have to work for
Anton Chekhov Tips His Hat At You
Interact with the shotgun twice before entering the shark cage.
Self-explanatory.

Frequent Caller
Radio Dominic six times before he stops the boat.
Self-explanatory.

Zane Ryker's Amazing Journey Through 25 Shark Stomachs
Get eaten by sharks 25 different times.
Easiest way to do this is to beat the game on Normal mode once, then play on Hardcore up to the Ascent (Part 2) and just keep restarting.

An Aquaphobe's Recurring Nightmare
Drown 25 different times.
Easiest way to do this is to beat the game on Normal mode once, then start again on Hardcore and just keep restarting at the very beginning.

THE LIGHT! IT BURNS OUR EYES!
Fend sharks off with your phone 50 times.
Self-explanatory. You're guaranteed to get this when playing on Hardcode mode.

The Definition Of In-Zane-ity
Attempt to radio Dominic on the ocean floor 10 times.
Self-explanatory.

Not Today, Jaws!
Complete an entire playthrough of this game without dying once.
After you've seen everything (and using my other guide on "How to beat the Game™"), this is no problem.

An Army Wouldn't Have Stopped Me, Dominic!
Complete the game on Hardcore Mode without dying.
Again, not that hard if you use my other guide and got the corresponding achievement for Normal mode without issues.

Insurmountable Odds
Acquire all 18 achievements.
You'll get this using the tips in this guide.

Using Your Head
Find and use the boat's toilet.
It's on the right inside the cabin. Only accessible after you've killed Dominic.

> Really? I cannot with Dominic in Hardcore 1st try and I made the game xD. I know only 1 person that managed to 100% the game and that is one of the playtesters. (btw there is a bug on these 2 achievements and you can get them either way if you don't die in the first 3 parts of the game idk why, also it is somewhat random if it happens or not)

To be honest, it wasn't as easy as I made it sound, it did take me a few attempts to beat without having software spam 'Space'. But it's definitely doable, especially after practicing a lot on Normal.
