Disclaimer
- This guide will go over every achievement, and the way to get them
- This guide will go in order of levels
- I will also tell you what you unlock at each level, whether that being cosmetics or attachments
- I will leave a quest guide to aid in completing the quests that are harder than others
- Each day generates a new map for everyone
- This may take many attempts for you
- Jump Boosters lets you jump
- Sun Boosters give you speed and time (important)
- Shield Boosters allow you to crash and not end the game
- Tris is a blue crystal that adds points and solar energy with combo/xp
- Regions are stages basically
Levels 1-5
Sparrow
Reach Level 3
Complete two or three quests in the side menu (in game), after that you should be near level 3
Bishop
Score 100k Points in 1 Run
This one is fairly simple, all you have to do is grab as much Tris and try to aim for the Sun Boosters to help you survive longer
Levels 5-10
Magellan
Fly into 1 World Portal
Once you’ve reached level 7, you should now have access to world portals when you play, they are normally in regions/stages 2 or 3, but these worlds are different from other worlds too
Swallow
Reach Level 10
Same thing with Sparrow but doing more quests, you should by now have the magnet and jump storage attachment to aid you
Rook
Score 500k Points in 1 Run
This is the same as Bishop but getting more of the Tris and living longer, which you can do by getting more of the Sun boosters which give time, if you are still struggling on this one then i would use emergency portal pickups which gives you an extra life, the purple shield is randomly generated between regions each day
Levels 10-15
Lindbergh
Finish 3 “Perfect Regions” in 1 Run
For this achievement you have to go through 3 regions perfectly, which means not getting hit for more than 3 stages, for this i would use jump storage (2) since this would allow me to dodge more often but its all up to you’re choice of attachments
Armstrong
Fly into 4 World Portals
If you know where you’re world portal is for today, then keep using it over and over until you get this achievement
Nighthawk
Reach Level 15
For this achievement you do more quests (all i can really say)
Knight
Score 1 Million Points in 1 Run
My main priority would be to get as much blue crystals along with the yellows, if this is too much of a hassle, you could do this in later on when you are a higher level
Levels 15-20
Aldrin
Fly into 8 World Portals
Go into a World Portal location 8 times (can reuse portals you’ve went through)
Montgolfier
Collect 25 Tris In-Air in 1 Run
Best advice i could give you is use ramps that always lead to tris, and use jumps for when the bird drops a bunch of tris using magnet and jump storage
Cirrus
Touch 1 Cloud
Level up to 19 to get the max storage for jumps, and get all 3 jumps to reach the clouds
Cumulus
Touch 2 Clouds in 1 Run
get all 3 jumps to reach the clouds (again) in the same run 2 times
Cumulonimbus
Touch 3 Clouds in 1 Run
get all 3 jumps to reach the clouds (once again) in the same run 3 times
Falcon
Reach Level 20
Do even more quests!
Wright
Collect 50 Tris In-Air in 1 Run
The Set i would use for this is Power Turning, Magnet, and Jump storage. Look for ramps since they usually lead to tris
King
Score 5 Million Points in 1 Run
For this i would do the same strategy of getting blue tris and the yellow shards but i would equip
Levels 20-25
Reach Level 25
Even More quests! (if you need help, go to the quest tab or comment down below)
Queen
Score 10 Million Points in 1 Run
My Set would be to use Max Magnet, Max Jump storage, and Power turning. All these should help you beat this hard task, but you can choose what you want you’re load-out to be
Goddard
Collect 100 Tris In-Air in 1 Run
Use ramps, and the bird at the end of each region. Jump storage with magnet attachments, (side note if you hit the right of the “fish” nose you can fling upwards high)
Yeager
Finish 6 “Perfect Regions” in 1 Run
For this achievement you need to go through 6 different stages without getting hit once, now i recommend getting the set power turning, emergency portal pickup, and jump storage to aid you. A emergency portal pickup allows you to hit something head on and surviving, but also not counting towards the collision factor unless you tap something on collision
Gagarin
Finish 9 “Perfect Regions” in 1 Run
This is pretty clear to the previous achievement just do the same thing but for 3 more stages without colliding with anything
Meteoroid
Clear Region 4 in Apocalypse
For the set i would definitely pick Max magnet, Max Jump storage, and Max Emergency portal pickup because of how fast you will be going you will need to dodge but also grab yellow tris along the way quick
Meteor
Clear Region 5 in Apocalypse
Clear again just surviving a region longer, (takes practice)
Meteorite
Clear Region 6 in Apocalypse
As far as i know it does not get much harder after region 6 so you could keep repeating this stage for the 5 mil or 10 mil achievement

Quests Guide
- Only turn left on 2 regions in one run
Now this one is hard but not impossible so what you want to do is use the jump storage attachment and (if you can) grab power turning as it will become very useful. If you are on controller i heavily recommend using the D-pad since you might act on instinct, which can ruin you’re run. Grab as much jumps as you can and don’t worry about the sun.
Changelog
- None
