Later Alligator - 100% Achievement Guide

100% Achievements - All Collectables - Tips for Pinball Lizard - The Puzzle Piece Glitch

Got The Time?

Look at your watch for the first time

HA! Time.

We're best friends!

Grab Baman and Piderman in the same round of "Claw School"

They only appear in the third round, so just play until they spawn and scoop em' up.

Pinball Lizard

Score 15000 points in Joanie's "The Ol' Pinny B"

Hint: there's a secret key function lol it's B - ik so clever and funny - it shakes the pinball machine

Tips:

Use the keyboard controls

Don't shake the machine too much. There's a pretty good chance that'll get you a fast pass to losing the round. Only shake for:

1) When the ball is about to fall into a side pocket - might as well try and save it

2) When the ball is in between all the bumpers - this one is risky, but it could help you rack up some points

Don't be afraid to Alt+F4, you'll likely have to. There are two reasons to do this:

1) If you're between 5000 - 15000 after the last round, close the game before it saves. Joanie won't let you replay it after you've beat 5000.

2) If you shake the machine when the ball is near the hole, it can cause the ball to glitch out of the machine and you'll have to close your game to reset it.

Love that baby

Play "Watch a Totally Normal Baby" without letting a single ghost reach Angelface

Basically get good
Hint: put the game in windowed mode to reduce the distance between buttons ;)



Game Mechanics:
Adjust the brightness bar on the right to target a ghost type and press the button matching their accessory color to eradicate them.

(blue ghosts require no button, put on full brightness to kill them)

Sotenbori Memorial

Take The Knife on "the perfect practice date"

Later Alligator Dating Sim ?

Play "Mack That Knife" using these responses:

What kind of adventure would you take me on? Impress me.

A nice stroll at the botanical garden

Well, that IS a change of pace. Old fashioned, but in a nice way. Gimme gimme!

Nice flowers

So, where did you want to eat? I heard you were quite the foodie!

Somewhere cool

Um, yes, we can totally change the topic to me.

Your scales are so shiny!

It's your first time—what looks fun to you?

Let's play a carnival game!

Screen Time

Watch the bubble wrap video in Tall Jared's "Ghost in the Cell" six full times

SoOoo meZmeRmerzingg.....

AHH THE BEES! THE BEES ARE IN MY EYES--

Have 8 hornets on your screen at one time in "Meditation Infestation"

In the third round of "Meditation Infestation," swat Aiden until he turns to stone. The game will fail. Do not proceed with the dialog until enough hornets spawn to trigger the achievement.

Solid Snake

Put together Tin Lizzy's picture of stoney Aiden in "Unmix the Pix"

Make sure you do this after you fail Aiden's minigame. The picture doesn't spawn every time so close the game before winning if you don't see it by the third round.

This includes:

- "Three Card Mickey" (Slick Mickey)

- "Old Maid" (Nana Rue)

- "Older Maid" (Baby Face Constance)

The Old Maid card tends to hang out in the middle so go for the side cards and fingers crossed. If you end up with the Old Maid card at any point you might as well Alt+F4.

There is a bug where the game will fail to recognize when you collect one or more of the puzzle pieces. If you are 100% sure you've collected every piece but are still missing a few, here is how to fix it.

First and foremost, we're going to be messing with the game files so don't alter anything else, and make sure your game is closed.

1) Copy and paste this into your File Explorer:

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\PillowFightIo\LaterAlligator
OR
C:\Users\Your User\AppData\LocalLow\PillowFightIo\LaterAlligator

2) Click on the numbered folder and open the file "LG_Persistent.pts" with Notepad


3) Pull up the search bar using Ctrl+F and paste this into it:

"PuzzleFoundTotal":{"__type":"System.Int32,mscorlib","value":

4) Replace the number that comes after it with a 48 and save

Video Reference:

All fixed! :)

Go ahead and see for yourself if you don't believe me, doubter.

Oh thanks for letting me know

[Soleil]

Also this discussion topic connects puzzle piece location with save file number values:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/966320/discussions/0/1628538005525874881/

[Soleil]

To clarify, a patch back in 2021 did move a singular puzzle piece to a new location.
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/966320/view/3075370759277271655

The puzzle piece that got moved used to be in the "Coffin Room." It was moved to the piece of paper in the room prior, which is the "street" of 9th Street.

This guide lists both locations but does not make a note of this alteration. So this guide contains 49 puzzle piece locations, rather than the in-game value of 48. I think it's fine if the guide notes both the pre-patch and post-patch spots for the altered puzzle piece, but the guide could clarify this to make it clearer for the reader. I noticed a couple of earlier commenters were confused by this.

If you're missing a puzzle piece, unfortunately it's likely that you glossed over one of the other puzzle pieces by mistake and it's unrelated to the 9th Street/Coffin Room puzzle piece. In the files, PuzzleFound_12 is the one you obtain from Theresa at the park.

[strawb3rrym1lk_]

ok, took a couple tries but i got it to work! thanks :)

[chootracks]

Weird the link still works for me? Try copy and pasting the link directly into your browser.

[strawb3rrym1lk_]

thank you so much for making this! do you have any other recommendations for sliding puzzle solvers? the link you put in the guide doesn't seem to work anymore :(

[spiritworld]

I was missing one puzzle piece and too tired to play for 8th time checking everything AGAIN, I opened the permanent file and realized every found piece is marked value: true, but every missing is not in the file at all. I was missing PuzzleFound_12 but that didn't help since it could be anywhere.

So I just added "PuzzleFound_12":{"__type":"System.Boolean,mscorlib","value":true} and PuzzleFoundTotal "48", then back into game and tram fitting the last piece to the puzzle (yep, it doesn't unlock just by itself, you must complete the puzzle). Bang, game 100% goodbye.

[chootracks]

If you've already played against her in this run you might need to start a new one. Otherwise, try verifying your files because that shouldn't be happening.

[RyanSalad]

Does anyone know how to play Older Maid against Constance AFTER they've unlocked Clancy's puzzles? I can't seem to run into her on the trolley anymore, and her game is the last thing I need to 100% the whole game

[chootracks]

I've added a video tutorial for the puzzle piece glitch. I hope it helps.
