It's no longer casual
Official description: Achieve a top speed of 10,000 km/h in casual mode
Personal description: Special thanks to tom- for clarifying this information! Top speed peaks at a certain point, and after that you must perform actions that typically gain you points (ie. air time, proximity passes, shooting other planes, smashing targets) to slowly increase your top speed. If you respawn at a checkpoint, your top speed limit is maintained

Removed Cheevos
These achievements used to exist, but were removed entirely from the game's list of achievements. Thanks to Valkyrie for noticing the removal of Unhandled Noob Exception on March 30th, 2022, and to Javiermora15 and ajaxalex5 for pointing the other ones out in February 2023.

BEGINNER:

Leaving the kiddie pool
Official description: Go outside the tutorial text range
Personal description: Survive until the tutorial runs out of prompts (the message "you can disable these hints in the options menu" will appear and it should pop)

OPTIONS:

Real men don't need instructions!
Official description: Turn off the on-track tutorial UI
Personal description: In options, scroll to GAME OPTIONS, then the Tutorial tab (options opens by default to this tab). Press the right arrow to toggle off the tutorial and it will pop

Flying Blind
Official description: Crash with a ship that has a colour of pure black
Personal description: Open the Change Colors menu available in-game and drag the RGB sliders to the lowest setting possible, then play a game and crash

In a sharing mood
Official description: Export a colour scheme (that's not the standard one)
Personal description: Open the Change Colors menu available in-game, alter the colour slider in any way and press "Export"

Player 1
Official description: Finish a race with the nickname player 1
Personal description: I unlocked this by choosing "Change Name" in the player menu, changing the P1 name to "player 1" (case-sensitive!), then entering a casual game and crashing.
Once I crashed, I was prompted to enter a player name (which auto-filled to "player 1"), then I confirmed and got the achievement.


DATE-RELATED:

This is Halloween, This is Halloween
Official description: Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween - Play the Halloween seed to the end of the Halloween song on Halloween
Personal description: On October 31st, complete the seed 3110311031; there's a timer of 3:45 that counts down (displayed below your ship) in-game and you automatically crash once the timer runs out - holding the back arrow the whole time makes this super simple to get


HIDDEN:

Official description: Crash at EXACTLY the right time or on EXACTLY the right date
Personal description: Crash on April 1st at exactly midnight (again, changing system clock helps greatly for this one)

You angered the menu!
Official description: You found the hidden pause menu easter egg! How'd you get it so angry in the first place?

Official description: Play the 3000000003 seed on Wednesday11 [sic]
Personal description: On a Wednesday, play the seed 3000000003

I did get "One" after closing the game, I didn't get "Zero" though, strangely, because I got 1st place in the Hardcore leaderboard and also raced the Top Dog leaderboard for 700k+ points, until there was nobody else left to beat, but I still only got the second place; it won't give me the first place at all, in fact, the first (and 9th) place don't even show up on the leaderboard.
kiwimints  [author] 7 Nov, 2024 @ 6:49pm 
@Muxxer i see youve unlocked "one" but not "zero" ; did you make sure you had 1st place on both leaderboards at the same time? sometimes, by the time u get a score in both categories, someone may have already beaten your other score.
Muxxer 7 Nov, 2024 @ 6:04pm 
I got first place on two leaderboards but I'm still not unlocking the "One" achievement. Have any ideas?
Pr3Ci510n 28 Apr, 2023 @ 7:51pm 
Wait. It would be 5PM then, oh. I guess I missed it.
Pr3Ci510n 28 Apr, 2023 @ 7:50pm 
Attempted multiple times and it didn't work.
Pr3Ci510n 28 Apr, 2023 @ 7:50pm 
Yep.
kiwimints  [author] 28 Apr, 2023 @ 11:14am 
@gearashi sorry to hear that =/ you sure you did it before midnight GMT?
Pr3Ci510n 24 Apr, 2023 @ 9:02pm 
(I attempted it a few hours ago, not just now.)
Pr3Ci510n 24 Apr, 2023 @ 9:01pm 
Tried to do "Happy Birtday to Me!" and the achievement is currently broken as I crashed and it didn't unlock. Looks like the update actually broke the trigger for the achievement.
kiwimints  [author] 27 Mar, 2023 @ 8:42pm 
@Javiermora15 @ajaxalex5 thanks for the reminder! kept forgetting to update. really appreciate that you listed out all the removed ones, made my job a lot easier. and yeah it's my pleasure, i also love achievement guides so i'm glad i got to give back a bit to this community by making my own!
