Keel Hauled achievement
For the Keel Hauled achievement, what do you need to do to unlock it? Do you have to avoid touching any buttons that are attached to ceilings or do you need to avoid touching the buttons on the first row of the level?

EDIT: I just accidentally unlocked it by skipping the level o.O wat?

If you update to 1.0.8.1, you won't be able to unlock achievements by skipping levels.. that's a bug on my end.

To beat that achievement, you just can't touch the very top buttons on the ceiling.

This is the only achievement I haven't been able to get yet. I'm assuming that you can't press the two buttons that are attached to the ceiling, but you can press the button at the top that is on the side wall?

I beat it without touching either of the 2 buttons at the top (even avoided the side-button that shares the same purpose as ceiling button 2) and still didnt get the achievement when I completed the level

I've beaten it multiple times without touching either ceiling button. Still no achievement.

I just checked this one and I can get it. The text was a bit confusing so I changed it to "Beat room Electric Lab Room 3 without touching any of the top four switches." Basically, you can touch any of the three bottom switches, but you can't touch the four topmost ones.

I have no idea how that is possible after about an hour of trying.
Just did it legitimately

If you stand close enough to an edge so that your goat sprite changes, when you walk or dash off the edge you can jump twice in midair instead of just once. If you just walk off, you can dash in midair, jump in midair, then jump in midair again.

This should give you enough of an idea for what to do

Cool, I had no idea that you could jump twice like that. Thanks!

I just did the achievement this way. Is it supposed to be possible to double air jump like that or is it a bug?

It's a control exploit that revealed itself after the original Xbox launch. If you stumble off a ledge with inertia, you retain both jumps for your fall.

How do you skip a level?

Once you've 100% beaten the game (not including the All Intensive Purposes levels), all the doors open up and you can choose to skip in the menu

Now that the double-jump thing has been fixed, how to legitimately get the achievement?

EDIT: I got it. Don't know how, but I got it. Apparently it allowed me to do the falling-and-double-jump thing.

I don't regret looking up this achievement. Would never have guessed you needed a glitch super secret unexplained game mechanic to get it.
(and yes to reconfirm, the "slide off the ledge to retain the second jump" thing still works in 2021)
