Here is a list of some of the collectables and shots needed to 100% the game. This is not a full walkthrough. Check out Gearomatic Games!

Assist Mode
Highly recommend for less stress!

Sway strength is required in order to complete all stars. All other assists are very helpful and undo makes the whole game a lot more chill!
Stars & Blue Things
Use the map to see when you're missing stars or blue things. You can also use this to warp back to a world. You still have to roll around level to level though.

Achievements that are related:
Make Me a Star
Starry Eyed
Blue thing, I think I love you

Additionally, you'll naturally get Super Powered as you play.

If you're having trouble with a strategy for a hole or cannot figure out where a blue thing is hidden (probably under a tree), check out Gearomatic Games! He did a full play through and got all stars and all Blue things. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9LyfGbb5Nk&t=6849s

Since I made this guide, The BMachine made an incredible shot by shot walkthrough (with images) for the stars! Definitely check it out if you're stuck!

Geometry Rush
This is one isn't too bad, especially in assist mode with undo and bounce prediction on. It is fully doable without any assists.

The final cavern 9-13 has 6 holes. The final hole is the only one where you need to count your shots.

The challenge of the level is that you are moving around the outside of the goal on moving platforms. The trick is every time to see a wall form in front of you, you need to either let yourself fall, or press undo when the platform behind you has formed.

Basically if you ever fall, the game will try to place you on your last spot you were sitting successfully. This will allow you to save shots or with assist mode, remove shots to make the amount of shots easier. There are two walls that need to be bypassed this way along the left side.

After about 6-8 shots along the left you will hit a section with a moving circle. Wait until a little nook to the right appears and quickly shoot in to there. The next shot can be tough, but you want to hop to the left of the moving hole to another small nook. The timing on this is tough because the platform will be disappearing behind you and it won't quite be formed where you're shooting. Then you'll have to do one last shot to the edge of the platform past where the moving circle stops.

Next is another wall you'll need to reset or undo shot to pass. Then go forward another 3 platforms and look backwards. There will be a platform back to the right forming. There is a small raised lip to help you stay properly on the platform but it can be tricky without prediction.

Then you will just follow the line of platforms in front of you until you reach the middle platform you couldn't hit from the start. Try to land to edge of the platform if you can. Once you hit the switch in the middle, the hole will move straight through the platform and if you're ball is in that path, you're in trouble!

Ideally you want to land your ball close to the goal and off to the side. Hit the switch, wait and power shot your way into the light for victory! You need to be under 24 shots to nab this achievement, so it's handy to keep a count and restart if you're over. Restarting the level will just restart hole 6. If you finish the level, you have to replay holes 1-5 before replaying 6.

Good luck!
Incomplete & Spelunking
You will get Incomplete when you finish the final level with stars and view the credits. It doesn't matter what your star and blue thing score is ex. you can have all 400 stars and 60 blue things and it will still be "incomplete".

There will be one final cavern 9-13 afterwards to beat and that will get you spelunking and the final blue thing if you were perfect up until this point.

You're totally right. I booted up the game and I could see what you were talking about. I updated the guide with the secret exit and a screenshot of the cube to the left of the starting point. It's on the ice with the presents.

I its to the south of 5-2. Going to 5-3 takes you north so I dont see where it can be there.
SuperKimbit  [author] 1 May, 2023 @ 10:20am 
Oh wait! I just reread your comment and you're talking about the overworld. Chances are you need to find the secret in one of the nearby levels. 5-3 has a secret exit.

Anyone know how to get the 3 stars on the map near 5-2. Cant seem to find the secret box
