A quick guide on how to get " Being a Donut " achievement
By lel
So I found out that " Being a donut " has 1.3% achievement rate across the entire steam achievement progress which come as a suprised as its the 2nd lowest to achieve, aside from the full achievement.

And if you are like me and planning to get 100% achievement, you will find this achievement to be very "anti / reverse" healing, i.e the whole concept of the game is to heal people and not to fail them.

And if you are like me, you are probably 30-50% in the game and realised this achievement and thought " Crap, I dont want to ruin my reputation that I build up across 6+ hrs ".

Fear not, as this is a quick guide and takes about 30 mins to get this achievement.

1) Back Up your save data first ( dont want anything to go wrong with it ).
2) Create a new save file character . Dont care what you call your protagonist and doggo.
3) Skip every possible dialogue.
4) Collect the herbs required to heal the Myer daughter. ( Because otherwise you cant progress the story )
5) Befriend 10 NPC
6) ^ You need to befriend 10 NPC to allow the carpenter to make an alarm for your clinic.
7) Sleep and rinse everyday. Every time there is an alarm, just sleep, skip the next day.
8) Once 10 ppl fallen ill, you should get the achievement

Lastly, during this period, whatever you need to add on to your achievement, like petting your doggo or do side jobs counts as steam progression. So before you delete this save file, do what you need to do and delete it afterwards.

Thats it!

I don't think he means getting high friendship with 10 but doing the quest to get to know 10 ppl, you have to finish upto the questt to get the fishing net and you get the cut scene to the clinic the next day and then just sleep and skip the cutscenes as the patients fail

Thank you so much! This sounds like a much better idea than ruining my precious save xD

You no longer need 10 friends to get the alarm! I'm not quite sure what triggers it, but I had zero friends and got it on the fourth day.

You really don't have to worry about "messing up your reputation" to get this achievement. Yeah, if you just sleep over and over again until you fail 10 patients you will have a negative reputation... but it's not hard to dig yourself out of that hole.

I think successfully curing one patient brought me from thumbs down to thumbs up.

No need to go through the pain of making a new save and pass the tutorial. Just do this:

- backup the save folder (C:/Users/%USERPROFILE%/AppData/LocalLow/MasshiveMedia/Potion Permit) would be useful if you put the location in the guide
- then copy the save where you have progress, for example GameSave1.rjson somewhere outside the save folder
- rename the copied file from GameSave1.rjson to GameSave2.rjson
- paste GameSave2.rjson inside your save files folder
- launch the game
- voila, you have two saves with identical progress

Now you can proceed to f*ck up as much as you want. I just kept skipping days for Being a Donut and Community Advisor because I couldn't be bothered to do the fishing tasks or go farm some obscure drop I didn't have.

The side effect of getting this achievement is Chemist become most wanted for ignorance to cure Moonbury's resident (just a joke. Haha)
