Easy "Into the Past" Achievement

After unlocking Moss Blanket, jump down the tree trunk and go right. Going up you will find another circle doors, requiring another key. Once opened, you will need a few plorts:

Tabby
Phospor
Rock
Honey
Boom
Rad

And place them in the corresponding pillar (they should look similar to slime they are coming from). Once you place them, last gate opens. Go through it and you get the achievement.

Easy "She's on Fire!" Achievement

Before you start, have at least fifty slimes in your vac tank. Refer to the image below on where to set up the hoop and use your jetpack to stand on the yellow panel. From here you should be able to hold down LMB while aiming for the hoop and easily score points. If you run out of slimes just vac them up from where your standing and shoot them again.

Gameplay Tips

1. GOLD SLIMES cannot be captured. This is intended. You can throw a single, or if you are lucky multiple fruits at them which immediatly cause them to uhm... gift you with their "plort" then blast off into space or in most cases a wall to inevitably..."poof". Again, this is intended by design because being able to farm these lil guys would completely ruin the farm aspect. Their spawns / times are completely RNG.

2. Be weary of accidentally creating a "Tar" Monster! A Tar is created when a "Largo" or a large slime which is an amalgam of two different slimes, eats a "plort" not created by the innate amalgam slimes. IE if you have a pink/kitty largo, they make kitty/pink plorts. If they accidentally eat any other type of plort, they will morph into a Tar beast who can and will quickly consume everything around it, multiply and ruin a perfectly running farm if you are not quick about dealing with them, which leads too...

3. If you immerse either by soaking with water from your cannon(which you can suck up from any source of water) or simply by tossing into the ocean, any tar beast, they will die. Water is the bane of tar. YEAH SCIENCE!

4. Early on in the game you have access to mostly pink and blue slimes. At night Phosphorous...Phosforus....Glowey! Slimes appear! They produce some very lucrative plorts BUT! They require a special corral to house them with the upgraded Screen walls because when the light hits them, they poof. HOWEVER if you...uhm...things!...with another type of plort, they lose their poof! When in sunlight. This may be a bug however, but its something to bear in mind if you do not have the money to make proper screened walls.

5. Make a coop early on and get two Roosters with a mix of hens. You will need the meat to feed certain slimes if you do not intend to fill your ranch with largo hybrids. Also you will need the meat to feed to a kitty largo that is covering up a fast travel telepad.

6. Largos are amazing! They produce two kinds of plorts per food consumed and with the right mixes can make you very rich very quick. HOWEVER they will also fight over food, get in the way of each other eating food, which can lead to some starvation issues @.@ and you can safely with no issues only keep 3-4 per pen.

7. Air roofs are also amazing! Build them, and high walls. If a Tar somehow does form or worse, finds your ranch, the roofs and high walls will either keep them caged until you can deal with them, or keep them OUT of your pens so they do not eat your slimes.

8. We have all done it, tried to swim in the ocean or tried to use our jetpacks to reach that out of reach island, and well, you wake up back at the ranch. When you do happen to uhm...get knocked out! You will lose all the items you had in your cannon. /sadtrombone

9. Honey + explodey = I have too much money to spend now. If you find them, yay! Welcome to the end of the fun. They make so much money the game got really boring, really quickly. To the point I actually wanted to simply...get rid of them =( But they are so friggen adorable!

10. Use the grassey extention to the ranch for breeding chickens and growing food! Instead of having to monitor random slimes in the new area, i just tossed all my chickens, roosters, and carrot patches in that area so I didnt have to keep food plots in the main ranch area. Upgrading the gardens maxes out the food I need for the auto feeders every 2 cycles. Very nice.

11. When you buy the cave, dont OVERFILL it with fosphor...phos...glowey slimes! I know, they are second in kawaii-ness to the kitty, but if you also put in fruit trees, which is recommended instead of building corrals, they will produce so many plorts, your game stability will suffer whenever you try to go back in there. Keep the number modest. And dear god dont put largos in there. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. They will eventually ride up the walls, and get stuck unable to be rescued.

12. Explore! The jetpack is amazing, even if it has a height throttle on it. Learning to float about for massivly long distances feels great once you get the hang of it, making traveling from area to area way less dangerous, if you ave alot of rock/X largos rolling about, or if you have alot of angry slimes, which can happen randomly once they run out of food to eat, my own observation however, not sure why exactly some largos just spawn in off.
