( No longer works ) How to reach 250K and beyond
By paradoxalseer
I have been notified by notified by a commenter on this page that this strategy is no longer effective, while I have not tested this myself but I feel obligated to make a note just in case.

If for some reason you decide you want to blue ribbon this game but are having trouble with the 250k Achievement, what I believe to be the games hardest achievement, this guide may be of some use to you.

Disclaimers?
-This will take about an hour and a half to complete so be ready for that.

-This strategy isn't guaranteed to work the first time and may take up to three tries like it did when I tried it, but worry not you'll get to that sweet sweet 250k at some point... even if its 4:30AM on a Sunday...

-I've only done this as the wizard and, while I heavily speculate it does, cannot ensure it works without them.
Preparation // What you may need
-Time time time... and determination. This took me way longer to complete than I thought it was simply from messing up a couple times over so be ready for that, you might get lucky and get the first time but just be ready for that.

-The wizard... while the DLC is by no means required it is heavily recommended, and hey it never hurts to support your indie devs. This is primarily for the healing spell you get as opposed to the extra weapon to back-kick some of the damage you'll take.

-I recommend having your own music to listen to as well, I would've gone insane getting this if I had to listen to the same sounds of the game over and over again for almost 2 hours.
Grind Time
That's right, every gamers favorite thing, grinding. What did you expect the achievement to boil down to?
You're gonna want to play the game normally until you get to the tree boss shown in the picture provided that I took when I was overly excited at getting to 100k
From here you just, kill the green slimes for a good couple hours until you get to your desired score, the hard part is to make sure NOT to hit the tree, while grinding its children for those sweet sweet points is easy, vampire bats in the final stage aren't, those guys will destroy you when you're at 239k and make you do this whole thing over again.
But its just as simple as killing slimes and not dying, which if you play as the wizard isn't very hard. The boss levels, or at least this one, seem to like to consistently give you at least one of each item, meaning you should always have a heal and something to attack with, the big thing is to NOT kill the tree until you've meet the score you want.


(This image is really low quality for some reason, it's the tree boss, you know the boss that is a tree. Shouldn't be that hard to identify.)

Tips and other possibly helpful info.
-The poison of the green slimes lasts for 18 damage, leaving you at 82 health off 100.

-All healing items, hearts or spells, heal for 25 hearts. If using healing spells it is recommended to use immediately after a slimes poison wears off

-The tree will spawn a max of 3 slimes at a time, so don't expect to have to face more than that at some time.

-You can cross the single block of slime at the top and only take about 3-5 damage. This applies for all the slime surrounding the tree but it isn't recommended to cross outside the circled area (see picture for visual)

Thank you, and even though I went through this game, this information will not be superfluous. good luck 🍀

In response to Black_Dragon, despite the fact that I haven't played this game in some time, I will be working on a tutorial that details how to defeat each of the bosses. It's a little late since I've been busy but wish me luck.

Man, can you make a guide for each of the bosses, otherwise it’s not clear how to kill some of them

This achievement has been deleted from this game. Mostly is 50k

@SilentBoy741 Thanks for letting me know, I haven't played this game since about the time I made this guide but I updated it letting future viewers know that this strategy is no longer effective! I can't imagine trying to get the achievement scores without something like this that lets you just grind it out in one area so best of luck to you and all future achievement hunters!

It appears that this was patched out during an update, as the green slimes no longer give any points during the tree boss battle. Looks like the rest of us will have to get 50,000 points the hard way...

I don't think even I realized there was pause button when I originally did this. And yeah the grind is boring as shit that's kind of why I made the guide of sorts share tips and advice to get through such a long boring process. @kawaii Desu-chan @lireas

@lireas you're fucking joking, you have to be

@Kawaii Desu-chan There is actually a pause button, which I only found about much later :sleepyjill:
