Achieveing the achievements
As most of the players have noticed, in the version available right now on Steam, none of the achievements do indeed work. This means that you'd need to roll back to a version where they did, so let's get to it!
  • Open the Steam Console.
    Press Win+R and paste this into the Run window:
    steam://open/console

    This should open your Steam client with an additional tab like this:

  • Now download the old version with the following command:
    download_depot 1747680 1747681 5340661631143830450
    Wait until you see a message like this, so you know that download is done:

  • Open the downloaded files (the path is right there in the completion message) and the Game folder. REMOVE EVERYTHING from the Game folder, and paste the downloaded files.
  • Launch the game through Steam as usual.
  • GET ACHIEVEMENTS!
Known issues and additional features
As far as I am aware, the only issue in this version is that the door on the first level is not intractable, and you can just pass through it.

This seems to be a test build of the game, so there are two additional keybinds:
1. Pressing "c" will speed up the game.
2. Pressing "Spacebar" will grant you noclip as long as it's pressed.
Using either of those features will not disable achievements.
Tracking "Master of Destruction" progress
IMPORTANT: After finishing a level, you HAVE TO RESTART THE GAME. Otherwise, the game will "know" that you have gotten the clumsy achievement, and will NOT show the message.

Now that you are able to get the achievements, you may also want to 100% the game, right? And there is a pretty handy way of tracking the progress of "Master of Destruction" achievement built in! It's the game's console log.

I'm using Notepad++, but you can use any text editor. Notepad++ in particular has a monitoring feature that you can enable thorough View→Monitoring (tail -f). That will make the log update as soon as anything is written into it, so you can keep it open on the second monitor, for example.

Now, after you think you have broken all the pots, check if the file has a following string:
"Reporting achievement: CLUMSY"
If it does, you're in the clear to proceed to the next level. Some levels have game logic issues, and will spam the console with text. Just use the Ctrl+F search feature to find the appropriate string:
