Complete Achievement Guide

Achievement guide for Tiny & Big: Grandpa's Leftovers. I noticed there were almost no guides while looking for help getting these achievements and I had an extremely hard time for some of them, so I decided to create this guide. I have never written a guide before but i'll try my best. I love this game and I found the achievements both satisfying and a blast to get. Thanks to Black Pants Studio for creating this. =)

Some general tips:
- Be wary of the physics in the game, you can easily cause rocks to go flying and stones to go missing. Plus, you can die very easily in this game.
- Check every nook and cranny in each level, there is a big penalty for some achievements requiring you to do the whole level over just to get it again. I found myself repeating levels 3 and 4 over almost 30 times because of small errors.
- Some achievements already have other guides, as I can't get videos or screenshots as easy as some, check out some other guides if you are still confused or send me a message if you are truely clueless and can't move on.
- Most of the cumulative achievements (Collecting 1,000 stones, collecting tapes, etc.) can be achieved while replaying levels for other achievements. By the end of the game I had ~800 rockets/1000 and ~850 stones/1000, so if you're going for all of the achievements, don't sweat those just try to get as many as you can while replaying the levels.

EDIT: Some questions/bugs have been reported/solved in the comments section, before asking a question make sure you've searched the entire guide and the comments.

Bull's Eye
In the first level, grab your rocket and head to the areas marked with an arrow pointing to an object and a floating "ROCKET" text. Walk over to the square block lodged in the ramp facing a totem. All you have to do for this one is to just rocket it and knock down the totem.
Butcher & Uber Butcher


EDIT: To get Butcher you need to cut down the bigger pig/dog statue in level 4, run past the two on the side and cut down the one in the middle.

To get Uber Butcher you have to knock down the big pig/dog statues that you see in levels 3 and 4 (Picture Shown). This is easiest to obtain in the beginning of the 4th level. There are two statues on the left and right of you as you spawn in. Laser the bottom half of the statues connecting to the legs and rocket them off. You need 10 statues for Uber Butcher so just hit start > retry until you have all 10! Easy.
Call Me Done!
Finish the game.
Can't Handle This
This can very easily be one of the hardest achievements to get, the fastest way to get it is to go to the first level and grab the big fork-shaped object and drag it to the left side of the ramp leading to the exit. Push it up against the left side and the wall in front as much as you can and grab on the right side of it while facing the wall. It may take a few tries but grab and move backwards until your platform starts to rise enough for you to hop off and head to the exit to get your achievement.
Clay Pigeons
GETTING THERE: To get this achievement you first need to find the game machine on the 3rd level. Big should be tossing you giant boulders down a narrow ramp that you have to climb twice, when you jump down off of the second ramp look left and go up the pillar. After walking up the pillar look left and walk completely facing the two pillars on top of a rectangular rock. Turn completely around and hook one of the pillars on the rock above you, but be quick! Big can easily smush you in the process as he's quick to throw stones when you're in that spot. Climb up and there's a boring stone and a game machine. Once you're in you realize you have to act fast or else this can easily be the most frustrating game machine you play.

ONCE INSIDE: My technique was to immediately walk to the other side of the platform and look out from there. I don't really have any advice on cutting them, you just need to have fast reflexes and be ready for trick ones that go up very high or very low. There are generally 1 or 2 very low stones and 1-2 very high stones. One note: sometimes a stone can get stuck coming up and will disappear, rendering the achievement impossible to get at the time. You can try retrying or walking near the area and lasering around the circle, but you risk missing the next one if there is one.
Destroy the Destroyed & God of Darkness
In the 5th level, after you slide down the circle-shaped hole from the sacrificing room, walk right down the path close to the wall until you reach an end with a makeshift bridge made from rocks and pillars. Look left and enter the small room revealing the God of Darkness and nabbing you the achievement. Come out of it and you should be facing the bridge. Simply cut a part of the rock above you or find another way to hop on the bridge and walk down it to the end platform and cut it down when you've crossed to get the "Destroy the Destroyed" achievement.
Fabulous Dentist
This achievement has to be purposely missed. Simply follow the level and eventually near the end you will reach a giant head where you will have to cut through the teeth of the statue to continue on. The camera will zoom out when you're done and you will see your masterpiece.
Fireangst
Another achievement on the first level. Grab your hook and laser and just ignore the rocket. Walk towards the end of the level and laser along the gray line between the stones, drag the rubble away, and walk to the exit to score the achievement.
Gambler!
Find all the machines! [See machine guides for more info: Clay Pigeons, Hungry Hole, Hot Feet, In Your Face!, and Pattern Recognition]

Note: You must COMPLETE the machines to get this achievement.
God of Ascension
Found at the end of the second level, before entering the head after you cut through the teeth. Keep walking forward and hop onto the pillar and into the tiny hole in the wall, the God will be right in that room.
God of Machines
A very easily missed but very easy achievement. On the very last reality boy level (the last of the tutorial levels) where you have to rocket off blocks to jump on them in the end, go behind the area where the pants are and look straight, her face will be right in front of you.
Göttersturz
Found on the second level, ascending the second tower area. There should be four windows and 4 totems in front of each one, rocket them all off the platforms to get this achievement.
High Ground
On the first level turn right as you spawn and climb up the huge totem statue lodged in the ground, your radio will speak to you and you will get the achievement.
Hot Feet
GETTING THERE: This game machine is very easily missed. In the 5th level after you walk across the bridge to the sacrifice area where you have to place the circle-shaped underwear platform in the hole keep walking straight to where the circle painting of the underwear-possessed creature is at and look left, there should be a game machine greeting you.

ONCE INSIDE: Pretty straightforward, keep jumping and keep up your pace until the end, but be ready to rocket and cut down a block at the end. The only catch here is that the blocks are falling as more time goes on so be quick!

Note: When you approach the slopes it's best to jump down instead of sliding down as that wastes a lot of time and can easily kill you in the process.
Hungry Hole & Join the Band
GETTING THERE: This game machine is found in the band room behind a breakable wall in one of the extra towers that you hop into real quick on the second level. There are two towers lodged in the wall that you can walk into, the first one has a music tape and the second one houses the band room (where you recieve the "Join the Band" achievement when discovering it) with the machine and another music tape.

ONCE INSIDE: This is the easiest game machine to complete. Just rocket the squares in and you're done!
In Your Face!
GETTING THERE: Another game machine. This time on level 4. Notice how there are a bunch of doors on the 4th level as you ascend? They come open and closed and they all have different things inside them, Gods, machines, stones, etc. After you round a corner, you will see the very first ramp (Big drops a boulder down it if you start to walk up it), you need to look to the left towards the ramp going down to the sandy area below and make a cut so that you can get down safely. Then make your way to the abandoned island off to the side and cut the large pillar to get across. Cut the next pillar connecting to the next sand area where the big double doors are and walk in, the arcade machine is inside.

ONCE INSIDE: A block will fly at you as soon as you start so be ready. All you have to do is slice the blocks as they gradually get smaller. The easiet technique is to just center your crosshair right in the middle of where they spawn and knock them out the second they come out, you don't even need to move your crosshair at that point. Another technique that I found out is that you can slice them up until they're small enough to stun, but not kill you. Let the block hit you once it's small enough and you will fall back one step behind the block you were on before. Since the machine doesn't require you to actually slice them all, but to not be hit by them, you can use this if you're not very good at slicing them fast enough.

EDIT: Here are two pictures that explain the location better than I can, considering I can't get pictures easily.
All "Invincible" Achievements
The names to these are as they imply. Beat the corresponding level without dying.

Invincible Pupil: Level 1
Invincible Cliffhanger: Level 2
Invincible Runner: Level 3
Invincible Explorer: Level 4
Invincible Ghosthunter: Level 5
Invincible Fighter: Level 6 (Final Boss)

1: Very easy, nothing to say here.

2: Still pretty simple, watch out for your own blocks.

3: Intermediate, slice his stones right when he throws them if you're not comfortable with just sprinting towards him until he runs away.

4: Hard, be very careful towards the end when he starts spawning blocks above you, when you hear a noise above your head, get out of sight before it drops/rolls on top of you. Also, be VERY careful about the terrain on this level, there are a plethora of ways to kill yourself with your own cutting/pulling or just falling down very small holes if you aren't paying close attention. Always retry instead of taking a risky move.

5: Hard but easier than 4, everything in this level is straightforward, the boss fight is especially easy considering you have waaaaaaay more than enough cover to last the whole fight, just be careful on small pillars and rocks and watch your step as you only light up the area directly around you and you can fall through tiny holes very easily.

6: Probably the hardest besides level 4, slice the platforms before he touches them and throws the rocks at you because if they land, 90% of the time they are unavoidable and you have to restart the whole fight which becomes a frustrating thing to do. When he starts throwing the larger stones at you make sure you have your line already drawn out and release the button the second you see the outline turn blue. For the very last large stone he throws at you it turns left in mid-air so watch out and don't get caught off-guard.

Note: Most of these can be achieved with the "Stone Collector" achievement series. It's harder but it definitely beats having to replay a level for the latter achievement. I would advise going for all the stones first and then worrying about not dying.
Juke Boxing
Collect all the tapes in one level. This achievement has been prone to glitching as I got all of the tapes in level 1 but didn't receive it until the middle of level 3 for some reason. Try replaying levels if you can't get it.

LOCATIONS FOR LEVEL 1 TAPES: One on a visible pillar when heading to the exit, and another on a rock directly above the half-circle totem head in the ground near the ramp with the "Bull's Eye" achievement. Just stand on the totem head and look up and cut the rock to let the tape fall to the ground, your achievement should unlock after collecting both.
Mr. Burst and Mr. Fizz
Use the rocket and laser 50 times. You can probably grab this midway through the first or second level depending on how much you explored in the game.
No Pull for Me, Sir!, Ueberpar, & Parlicious
These easily go hand in hand. No Pull for Me, Sir! requires to complete a level without the grappling hook, Ueberpar requires to complete a level with the cuts under the par score, and Parlicious requires you to match the par score. We'll use the first level to do this. Ignore grabbing the hook and push a totem or a stray rock over to the pillar with the battery. Grab the battery and head to the exit, be sure to get the rocket. Cut the two rocks leading to the exit on the gray line and rocket them off. Since you only used your laser once you will have 1 under par. Exit and get your two achievements.

FOR PARLICIOUS: Repeat the process (except you don't need to leave the hook this time) and just use the laser anywhere else to match the par score of 2 and exit the level.
No Soil for Big
You need to cut down all the pillars/rocks he stands on to throws rocks at you on your way across the bridges. The radio will talk to you and say something along the lines of "You did what the developers intended you to do, so here's an achievement!" when you unlock it.

NOTE: If you get too close to Big he will fly to the next platform and you will have to restart the area. Keep your distance.
Oldschooler
Beat the tutorial.
Pattern Recognition, The God of Trying, & Stoney Fabric
Pattern Recognition: The very first game machine, located in the wall on the right side of the map on the rock pathway.
The God of Trying: Find the God in the first level.

GETTING THERE: After grabbing all your tools that you want, head back to the car and look left and walk up the rock pathway until you reach the block blocking your path. At this point head turn around and cut into the wall on the left and hop up to the two pillars housing a cave. Walk in the cave to reveal the "God of Trying" achievement. After that, continue walking the way you were originally and cut the blocks in a way so that you can progress on. You'll encounter a stone and a dead end. Turn left and enter the cave housing the game machine.

ONCE INSIDE: Cut the blocks in the shape of the pattern on the walls to the left and right of you.
A technique that I found the fastest was to work my way bottom to top. Cut the bottom row entirely and cut the 3 2 block sections above and work your way up, you should get this within a couple tries.

Stoney Fabric: Destroy the 3 pants statues in the first level. Your radio will notify you when you destroy one.

One is right above the entrance to the "God of Trying" cave, for the next one walk to the very wide totem head near the ramp used to rocket the stone to the small totem for the "Bull's Eye" achievement and look up. Cut the blocks on the left/right in a way in which you can reach the left or right pillar and cut it so the pants fall so you can destroy it. The last one is overlooking the exit. Simply cut down the pillars to reach it and there you have it, three easy achievements on the first level!

Pest Control
EDIT: I've just been informed that this achievement runs on a counter, you don't have to kill the pests (gophers) in specific levels, it seems that you just need to kill a specific number of them. If I can get the exact number I'll edit it again.
The God of the Vortex, & The Dark Passage
The God of the Vortex and The Dark Passage are both found in the 4th level in one of the rooms with the big, breakable doors. you should see a dark room while your radio warns you about the impending danger. Walk through the door and jump about halfway through to avoid the invisible hole in the ground to get the achievement. (You should come out on the other side of another room with a stone on a rafter in front of you). After that turn back and go out the way you came and turn around again to face the dark passage while your back is to the wall. Go right and cut down a part of the pillar and bring it to the broken pillar closest to you on the left. Use the one you cut as a tool to get on the pillar and walk over to the "God of the Vortex" to recieve the achievement.

EDIT: If the description of getting to the God of the Vortex area confused you, try this method by a commenter: When you reach the breakable door first look up on the wall infront of you, there is the god of vortex which is easily reached by cutting the right small beam and positioning the cut part close to the beam on your left. Beneath the slab with the god there is a door.

Note: Sometimes The Dark Passage achievement doesn't register right away and you might have to go back out and in again to recieve it.
Tape Afficionado & Rubble Maker
I'm not sure how much rubble you have to make in order to get the Rubble Maker achievement, but I unlocked it about midway through the game and I haven't seen anyone have any trouble with it, so just be sure to laser all your rubble until it's gone to be sure.

Tape Afficionado: I'm fairly sure you have to collect all the tapes in the game, but you just have to collect the amount of tapes there are. So if you're replaying levels be sure to grab all the tapes you can while you go for what you are going for, or if you finished the game be sure to go back and trying grabbing the beginning tapes and retrying until you have the achievement.
Stone Collector Series
Stone Collector: Collect one boring stone.

Stones No. 1: Collect all stones in level 1. One in front of the "Gods of Trying" area with the pillars right above where you spawn to the left, one on the rocky pathway you cut yourself going up the path on the left from the spawn, one at the end of this path, and one at the end of the level.

Stones No. 2: Stones to watch out for: When heading for the end of the level right after cutting the teeth of the statue, head up to the hole where the "God of Ascension" achievement can be earned and look at the area you need to head into (the statue's ear) and there is a stone above the area you can see just from rounding the corner. Grab that and head to the end. Another one someone pointed out they've been missing is a stone in the first room with a ramp up, go to the right side of the room and cut the door in the wall down, revealing the stone.

Stones No. 3: A lot of people seem to be missing one stone on this level. The 4 that I can think of as being hard are:
- Heading right to the end of the second bridge area where big throws his first large totem at you, DO NOT go to the end of the left side and try to get to the right, he destroys the right side's bridge and you usually can't access it. Instead try to grab one of the pillars on the left and bring it down at a diagonal angle and climb up so you don't miss any.
- Next to the game machine behind one pillar. Once people get the game machine once they may forget to grab the one stone next to it.
- Right after the second ramp area you have to climb while dodging big's rocks there is a stone sitting on the platform below that jump onto, most of the time if you were a little too slow, when he jumps away the rock he was holding drops right onto the stone and it slips off the platform.
- When you approach the final ramp when Big starts launching whole pillars at you, turn around to the two slats leaning off of the rock and there's one rock hiding on the right one.

Stones No. 4: For this one you have to search EVERYWHERE. I'll list off some areas you might miss.
- On top of pillars
- In the breakable door room where there are blue half circles scattered about, look under the left one and there is a stone hiding underneath it
- On top of the bluish statues on the edges while climbing
- In every breakable door room
- 3 total on the ground areas you have to go off the beaten path to get
- One on an island of it's own at the very ground level, you have to cut down a slanted pillar to get to it (The arcade machine is in the door area there)
- One in the area where you climb up to big at the top
- When you get another level higher make sure you look down to make sure you didn't miss any on any pillars, extra areas, higher areas you can't see any other way, or just in regular places you may have skipped over

Stones No. 5: Much easier than 3 or 4. There are only 27 and they are all on the normal path that you take to get to the end. Only ones I can say to watch out for is the 25th is under a pillar right next to the 26th right before the big pillar slide to the boss fight.
Your Burstness, Your Cutness, & The Boringness Continues
Your Burstness: Use your rocket 1000 times
Your Cutness: Use your laser 1000 times
The Boringness Continues: Collect 1000 boring stones

Like it says in the description, if you are going for achievements often you will have to repeat levels multiple times, so you will end up with about ~700-800 rockets and stones and will have most likely finished the "Your Cutness" achievement. If you haven't, just run around rocketing and cutting random stones until you get it.

An easy way to get the last stones you need for the "Boringness Continues" achievement is to head to level 2 and into the cave where there are 4 stones on a pillar you have to cut down. Cut down the lower half of it so the 4 stones stay on top and walk across to hook the square rock to hop up above. Once you are up the broken ramp, turn around facing the rocks and look to the right. Hop on the two mantles from broken pillars and over to the four stones. Hit the back button on your controller (I'm not sure what the retry button is for keyboard) and you will spawn on the top of the broken ramp. Keep doing this until you have enough!

The God of the Dull Rock & The God of Passage
The God of Passage: In the 3rd level right behind your spawn point. The second you spawn in, turn around and go past the first pillar to reveal him.

The God of the Dull Rock: Found in one of the breakable door rooms in level 4.

For the Invincible Achievements: I messed up in level 5 and could not progress, so i pressed "O" to retry from the last checkpoint. It did not count as a death. Maybe this can be cheesed.

Nice guide! It helped me to get some of the achievements. However, i think the Hot Feet achievement description needs to be updated:

GETTING THERE: This game machine is very easily missed. In the 5th level after you walk across the bridge to the sacrifice area where you have to place the circle-shaped underwear platform in the hole, do not jump down. Instead, keep on walking straight to where the circle painting of the underwear-possessed creature is at and look left, there should be a game machine greeting you.

i thought the machine is located somewhere after you jump down so i spent hours to go to an area that has nothing in it.

Great guide man, it helped me with a couple of achievements I couldn't get alone, thanks so much!
