Easy "Boss Rush Level 1" Achievement

Use the pistol and sword only. There is a really good combo where you shoot, attack with the sword, and repeat that over and over again. It'll take some practice to get the timing right to make it fast, but with this you can kill a boss in thirty seconds or less if you are fast enough.

Easy "Boss Rush Level 3" Achievement

The best way to do this is to master the pistol/sword combo. Basically, attack with sword, shoot, attack with sword, shoot, in rapid succession. You can kill a boss within thirty seconds like this.

Easy "Bully" Achievement

Beat all Bosses. This cannot be obtained in newcomer mode. So hopefully your game does not randomly switch to said mode right before the final boss like mine did. Ideally, start from the East, then North, then West, and Finally South since you cant go there until you beat N,W and E first.

Easy "Contender" Achievement

Hoarde mode is unlocked by getting twelve keys and unlocking the door in the southeast area of the central zone. There are five stages, each requiring you to survive a minimum of ten waves to unlock the achievement. Four of the stages represents the monsters and areas of the various zones (North, South, East, and West). After completing the first four, the fifth stage will be unlocked, which contains all monsters from each of the zones.

Easy "Don't Give Up!" Achievement

This achievement requires you to die a total of 1000 times in one save file. I personally finished New Game with < 200 deaths. It is recommended that you complete this in New Game+ as the max health is capped at two, making it easier to die as you play the game.

Easy "Masochist" Achievement

After completing Standard New Game, you unlock New Game+. Unlike other games, New Game+ is not a continuation of New Game. As such, it is advisable to save in a new save file if you have not fully collected/unlocked everything in New Game. Here is the list of changes in New Game+

Default cloak is now black colored.
Max Health is capped at two.
The ocher outfit cannot be used.
Cloak cannot be changed.
Sword and bot can be changed, along with their added effects.
All sword and dash skills are unlocked.
All other upgrades (health pack capacity, weapons, weapon ammo capacity, grenade) and collectibles (monoliths and gearbits) have been reset.

Easy "Natural Leader" Achievement

There is a twelve key door in the central hub to the bottom right, the same location where the horde mode arena is. There is a snail here, inside the door but dont go down the elevator. Either sit or stand near it for a little bit and the achievement will pop. If you accidentally squish it, teleport to the central teleport station and try again.

Easy "Star Athlete" Achievement

Found this to be very easy by using the charge attack with the weapon to hit the ball from the middle. Majority of the time it would race past the little guy who you go against. I do not know how to unlock the area, i just found it unlocked after i played through most of the game. Before you beat the final boss this are should be unlocked in the main hub of the game towards the bottom left.
