Launched roughly nine years ago, developer Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone has finally secured one of the game’s most challenging achievements, allowing him to achieve a milestone 100% completion of his beloved farming life simulator? “Celebrating a milestone, I finally achieved 100% completion in , as seen in this photo.” Barone’s ultimate goal was to conquer “Factor’s Problem,” a challenging in-game minigame that demanded players overcome its obstacles without succumbing to defeat.
On Steam, only 0.12% of gamers have achieved the elusive “Fector’s Problem” milestone, while a mere 1.2% of players have earned the coveted “Perfection” achievement, which demands the completion of all available tasks and creations. Achieving victory, no matter the cost in lives lost, holds a mere 1.7% chance of success as a completion milestone.
This intense, top-down twin-stick shooter is essentially a game of self-discovery – starting with four lives, but if you’re after the achievement, you won’t need those extra ones. Waves of enemies converge on you, forcing you to eliminate each one before you can progress to the next level. The terrain features three distinct levels, each comprising multiple zones within its boundaries. Each degree culminates in an intense boss battle, providing a thrilling conclusion to the educational journey. Competing in a demanding sport is a daunting challenge, and emerging victorious without compromising one’s health is an even greater achievement.
Barone shared tips for dominating the game in his X-part series: “If you’re after in-game currency, avoid using ‘nuke’ attacks against enemies, as they rarely yield rewards.” Buy the very best merchandise you’ll be able to afford on this order: ammo > revolver > boots,“ he wrote. “Conserve your machine gun power-up to effectively prevent Fector’s attacks, allowing you to take him down before he can even launch a counterassault. You were intentionally focused on achieving 100% completion of the game.”
Responding to a fan’s lighthearted jab about acknowledging his accomplishments, Barone quipped “the devs gave me a virtual high-five.”
