Doors Like These
Discover where Hobson's journey ended, and started once again.

At the northern end of the Glass Desert will be a platfrom where a teleporter ideally taking you to space would've been placed, but instead Hobson has left a note. Read the note for the achievement.

The Adventure Continues!
Complete Adventure Mode and set out for what's next.

Adventure mode can be completed by reading all of Casey's starmail. So make sure to read them as they come in in order to progress. I'll provide the final five just so you know how close you are.

Gordo Slimes

1) A Slime Key
2) A Teleporter

You can tell which one you're gonna get simply by looking under the gordo. If you see the blue teleporter under it, then that's what the gordo unlocks. Otherwise, it gives you a Slime Key.

The objective of a gordo is to overfeed it to the point that it explodes. Each gordo has a specific number of items you have to feed until it explodes. If you feed its favorite, it counts as two items fed as opposed to one. Note: The gordos follow the eating patterns of their regular types.

Entry

The Ancient Ruins can be accessed given that you have both the Moss Blanket and the Indigo Quarry unlocked. You will need at least one slime key either from the Honey Gordo in the Moss Blanket or the Rad Gordo in the Indigo Quarry.

With that, if you head towards the gap where those two areas meet, you'll find a slime gate to open. You'll now enter the area known as the Transition. Here will you need to bring 6 specific plorts to open the gate:

1x Honey Plort
1x Tabby Plort

Renewal
Start bringing life back to the Glass Desert

In the glass desert, you'll see inactive oases shown below.


There are four fountains in the glass desert region for each the naturally spawning slimes in the area: Tangle, Rock, Mosaic, Dervish. To activate a fountain to output ancient water, you need to feed three statues near the fountain with the specific plorts.

Then you need to splash the ancient water onto an inactive oasis for the renewal achievement. There are a total of 14 oases, but you only need one.

Miscellaneous

Catch!
Shoot food into an airborne slime's mouth


Suck up a slime and its respective food. Simply shoot the slime into the air, then shoot the food at it. If the food hits him, he'll most likely eat it on collision. Slimes also tend to jump a lot, so shooting food at them while jumping shouldn't be hard. If you have trouble with accuracy, try using pink phoshpor largos.

That Only Works in Comic Books
Stand inside a rad aura for at least 15 seconds


After unlocking the Indigo Quarry, find a rad slime and stand in his aura. Leave after 15 seconds (you will be close to dying). Achievement triggers once you leave, will not trigger after 15 seconds in the aura. May require health upgrade.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVt-0x_JEgk

Once Bitten, Twice... Bitten
Hold onto a tarr for 15 seconds


Find/create a Tarr. Hold for 15 seconds. If you have 100 health, you'll barely live, but you'll have to throw him when you're down to 20 health. To create a tar, combine three slimes.

Boop!
Let a tabby slime headbutt you right on the nose


The nature of a tabby slime is to hug you so if you stand near one, it will happen eventually. Or have a huge pit of tabby slime and walk in. Virtually impossible to not get booped.

Fireworks
Shoot a boom slime largo into the air that explodes before landing


This may happen accidentally, but you can either do this normally or accidentally. The accidental method is being on the range, particularly deep into the Moss Blanket and having tons of Boom Slime Largos. Simply throw them into the air until you get it. Unnaturally, simply hold one until it's about to blow, then toss it.

Plortonomics

Transplorter
Sell 500 plorts at the Plort Market

Plort Tycoon
Sell 5,000 plorts at the Plort Market

Time Based

Up All Night
Stay awake from 6 AM to 6 AM the next day


Self-explanatory. Avoid going to sleep, avoid falling into the ocean, and avoid losing all your health. Then make sure you go from 6AM to next day's 6AM. Achievement should unlock immediately.

Not My Morning
Be knocked out before 10 AM


If you're at your ranch, wait until it's at least 6AM (06:00). You'll also want to sell/dispose of any items first. Once you're clean of items, simply jump off into the water between 06:00 and 10:00.

While You Were Away
Return to the Ranch after more than 24 hours


Find a nice place outside of the ranch to idle. To be safe, I'd start counting when you find a good spot. I stood on the plateau above the Pink Gordo (using Jetpack). The achievement unlocks when you return to the ranch. I do not know what happens if you return through injury.

Hasty Exchange
Fulfill a Range Exchange request between Noon and 2 PM


Everyday at 12:00, the Range Exchange gets a new request for you to complete. Complete it before 14:00 and the achievement is yours. It's recommended that you store some items. This may take a few tries until it gives you something that you either already have, or can easily get quickly.

Miscellaneous - The Ranch

Buck Buck Bagu-
Feed 100 chickens to slimes on the Ranch


The fastest way to do this is to have pink largo slimes then build a coop and stash some roostros and hens. Then everytime you get duplicate hens or elder hens, feed them to the pink largos. Repeat until you get 100.

Fruit Cocktail
Have 3 different fruit trees on the Ranch at the same time


##UPDATE DESCRIPTION##

Salad Bar
Have 3 different veggie gardens on the Ranch at the same time


##UPDATE DESCRIPTION##

Omnivorous
Feed pink slimes on the Ranch 10 different types of food


Simply feed ten different items to pink slimes: Pogofruit, Cuberry, Mint Mango, Carrots, Heart Beet, Oca Oca, Hen Hen, Stone Hen, Briar Hen, Rostroo, etc.

Tasty!
Feed 50 slimes on the Ranch their favorite food


See slimes to see what their favorite food is.

Carousel
Incinerate an elder chicken


First build a coop. Throw a Roostro and a Hen inside. Wait until the Hen becomes an Elder Hen and can no longer produce eggs. Now build an Incinerator. Throw the Elder Hen at the incinerator.

You... Monster!
Send an adorable chick to a fiery end, the same place you're now destined to go


Similar to the above, but obtain a chickadoo. You can either get one through the coop, or find one in the Dry Reef. They're fairly common.

Burstin' at the Seams
Completely fill a fully-upgraded silo


Build a silo. Upgrade it to the max so it has 4 slots. Then throw 100 of 4 items at each spot. I recommend plorts as they're easily to get.

Fully Loaded
Have a maximally upgraded corral, coop, and silo on the Ranch


Self-explanatory.

Six Pack
Have at least 6 different types of slimes in the same corral


Fairly simple, largos are combinations of two different slimes. Simply get a corral, and start making largos. Do not try making largos INSIDE of the corral. That's a good way to create Tarrs. Instead, create largos next to the corral, then drop them inside.

Risky Business
Have at least 3 different types of largos in the same corral


See above.

Diversification
Have at least 10 types of largos on the Ranch

Self-explanatory. Create 10 different largo combinations and have them all on the ranch.
Pink + Rock, Pink + Tabby, Pink + Honey, Pink + Boom, Rock + Tabby, Rock + Honey, Rock + Boom, Tabby + Honey, Tabby + Boom, Honey + Boom (etc)

Ball Pit
Jump into a corral containing at least 40 slimes


Self-explanatory.

Pool Party
Fill a pond on the Ranch with at least 5 different types of slimes


Buy a pool, throw 5 slimes in.

Miscellaneous - The Range

Jelly Belly Burst
Burst a gordo slime


The first step is finding a Gordo Slime. Then feed it until it implodes. See Gordo Slimes.

Open Says Me
Open a slime gate


In continuation to the previous achievement, find a Gordo Slime that does not have a teleporter under it. These Gordo Slimes will always drop a Slime Key that can be used to open a Slime Gate. The two slime gates you NEED to open are at the Slime Sea to access the Moss Blanket. The other is the slime gate in the cave nearby the Pink Gordo that leads to the Indigo Quarry.

Free Rangin'
Collect 50 plorts on the Range in a single day


Go to the range, collect food, feed everything you see (pink slimes). Collect the plorts. Rinse, repeat until you get 50 in a day.

Hat Trick
Obtain at least 3 gold plorts from a single gold slime


Gilded Ginger does NOT work for this achievement.
Using the 7zee Rewards, purchase the Gold Sureshot which increases the number of plorts that a gold slime drops to 3. When you find a Gold Slime, feed it any regular food for the achievement.

Controlling the Chaos
Constrain more than 15 slimes in your vac stream at once while on the range


Get at least 20 pink slimes. Head to a dead end on the range. Any cave works, throw all your slimes at the wall, then right click while strafing one way and counter aiming the other way. This should get all the pink slimes into your stream. If you're having trouble, try having an inventory with 3 different items, then pink slime to fill up your inventory. Throw all your pink slimes at one spot, then pick up a 4th item then vac the slimes (since you're full, you can't actually pick them up).

Miscellenaous - Better Homes & Gordos

One Person at a Time
Join the 7Zee Rewards Club


Starting on Day 7, you can join the 7Zee Rewards Club by visiting your home by paying a fee. Additional levels can be unlocked by paying more and more money to unlock upgrades. There are 28 total levels.

Color Me Impressed

Starting at level 5 in the 7Zee Rewards Club, you will begin unlocking packs. Once you reach here, exit your house and there is a module to the right of your house that will allow you to customize your house, backpack and tech.

Mint in Box
Purchase at least 10 different types of slime toys


Starting at level 8 in the 7Zee Rewards Club, you will unlock a module in the middle of the ranch to buy Slime toys which will improve happiness of types of slimes based on the toy. Simply buy 10 of them for this achievement.

Miscellaneous - Gadgets

Unlock

In order to fabricate gadgets, you'll need to unlock The Ranch Expansion for the Lab for 10,000g. The Ranch Expansion can be found along the path south of the main Ranch.

How to Fabricate

The main orb looking object in the lab is the Refinery where you can store plorts that will be used for fabricating gadgets.

On your left is the Builder's Shop where you can purchase blueprints for gadgets.

Then on your right is where you actually fabricate the gadgets using plorts stored in the refinery.

Once you've fabricated gadgets, you can place them by hitting [T] and placing them on designated areas.

Achievements

Onward... to SCIENCE!
Fabricate your first Slime Science gadget


Bea the Builder
Fabricate 35 Slime Science gadgets


Never Stop Creating
Fabricate 100 Slime Science gadgets


Best of the Worst
Place a tarr on the #1 Slime Stage

Purchase the #1 Slime Stage blueprint then craft it. After that, place a tarr on the slime stage.

The Hunter Has Become... The Other Thing
Snare a Hunter Gordo

Fabricate the Master Gordo Snare gadget at the lab. After that, place the gadget down and specifically place a Roostro in the snare as this is the hunter slime's favorite food. Go to sleep and you should get the achievement.

She's on Fire!
Score 50 points in a single game of slimeball

Purchase the slimeball blueprint then craft it. In this minigame, you'll have 60 seconds to score 50 points which you'll get by shooting slimes into the hoop. It's recommended to have 70-80 slimes in your vacpack to shoot. If you can place the slime hoop near something you can stand on, you can just shoot down into the hoop.

You cannot stand on the backboard of the hoop nor the rim and shoot into the goal, these shots will not count. You also cannot shoot from under and go through the hoop.

Rush Mode

Rush Challenger
Reach at least 10,000 newbucks at the end of a 5-Day Rush


Rush Champion
Reach at least 35,000 newbucks at the end of a 5-Day Rush


Rush Plortmaster
Reach at least 75,000 newbucks at the end of a 5-Day Rush


Explaining Rush Mode is a long journey which would be best suited in its own guide. In order to prevent myself from reinventing the wheel, here this guide:
