Intro
This game is extremely confusing at first, and the tips/hints given by the game are misleading, which leads to further confusion.
I spent a few hours banging my head against the wall before finally figuring things out.

The achievements are broken up into two halves: 'Dark Ending' and 'Light Ending'. The Dark Ending is easy: You just need to fail a bunch, which you will no doubt do as you learn the game. The Light Ending requires a bit of effort, but far, *far* less than the game makes out.
Dark Ending
As mentioned these are pretty easy to get. You just need to fail the game a bunch of times (16 times to get all 3). The quickest way to do this is to just do nothing productive and sleep very little. Click on the desktop in your room, click the icon on the far left, and click the panel that shows up. Wait a minute or two and the day will end and you should die. You might need a second day of this.

Once you die, take a postcard off the wall, and the game will reset. It also might crash, but it should still save progress that you died. You can tell if that postcard appears on your wall next time you start the game. Repeat until you have all postcards.

Die once.

Die 8 times.

Die 16 times.
Light Ending
While the game hints advise you to go out and run and talk to the same people every day to boost stats, ultimately you can beat the game and unlock the remaining achievements with just the applications outlined below


Basically as soon as you wake up:
6AM - 12PM: Join your Class
12PM - 8PM: Talk on Messenger
8PM: Sleep

If at any point Coding or Photoshop become Active (they bounce up and down on the screen), run them concurrently with whatever you're doing for as long as they're Active, otherwise you can just ignore them.

Live until the rainy day (if you go outside it will be raining, but we won't be so shrugs).
Finish the game.
Finish the game without ever talking to someone.

For the Single Gang achievement, does that require not talking to friends? Or is that just about not going outside and talking to people?

to get the destined to die ending and achievement you have to keep following the steps in light ending for multiple deaths untill you finally get it. for me it happened after about 4 or 5 playthroughs. whatever you do just follow the steps!!

Not sure about that one, in all honesty I've never gotten it. I assume you mustn't talk to any physical humans as this guide encourages using the messaging application.

As for dying 17 times in a row, just get on the computer, open an app, and let it run until he dies.

oh god, thats a bit annoying but alrighty. But what about the not talking to someone one?

You need to die 17 times in a row and make sure you don't get too far on any of the runs. If you get a good run, then the cat gets thanos snapped and you need to reset.

So I’ve died 16 times and got 16/16 postcards but didn’t get the third achievement of that, and I also have completed the game but only got the rain one, I also didn’t talk to anyone unless the app counts as talking to someone?

i don't know how but i instantly got the achievement (the one where you're saying don't talk to anyone then beat the game) all i had to do was touch the knife-looking object next to the computer? gen confused abt that but guess i shouldnt complain. thanks for the guide!
