Introduction
If you are reading this guide, then you probably know there are three achievements you cannot obtain. And the developer will most likely not fix it. The achievements are Death Proof, Maximum Synergy, and Bot Buster. This guide aims to help you get them.
WARNING
The other achievements will also be unlocked using this method. I recommended you gain working achievements yourself before following this guide.

Note: by doing these steps you will lose all your progress since the savefile is replaced.
How to edit savefile yourself
First of all you need some programming skills :)
The next and the last thing you need is Microsoft Visual Studio Express.
Once you get all of the above do the following:
  • Create a project
  • Add references to capsized.exe and microsoft.xna.framework
  • As the save file is simply a serialized .net object, you can deserialize it back. Let's do it:
    var stream = new FileStream(@"C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Capsized\Content\Config.xfg", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read); var gameConfig = (GameConfig)new BinaryFormatter().Deserialize(stream); stream.Close();
  • Now you have an object stored in gameConfig variable. It's just an ordinary object with fields you can edit.
  • The last step is serializing the object back, but I'm leaving it up to you :)

@Headhoncho Burnside Yeah, I just changed volume settings and got all achievements. No need to replay a level.

Hello everyone. I figured out how to get all the achievements. They don't work in the original game. Therefore, we need to move to the beta version of dev.

To do this, go to Steam - library - right click on Capsized - properties - beta - select "dev".

Most likely it will not start for you. We need to download Microsoft XNA Framework 4.0. (first link via google).

????

Benefit. You are gorgeous.

Get achievements and enjoy life.

Thanks, it works! :)
I actually still had other achievements to get, and this savefile unlocked them all, lol

I also can't obtain Above and Beyond, I have 10.5 stars on 1st level, and suspecting that it has to be exactly 10 stars, I retried level 2 until i got that, but still no achievement.
