Explanation
The goal of this guide is to consolidate and aggregate some information that can make obtaining certain achievements easier.

This guide assumes you have completed the tutorial and have unlocked certain abilities that enable you to perform the actions here described.

A final note: it is not necessary to find every object in the game to get all the achievements.
Nested Worlds
This achievement requires you to enter planet view. Some other guides state that you need to enter and exit planet view.

What worked for me is entering a level that would not ordinarily contain planets. Let's say, the level that includes grass and bugs. Here, spawn a planet by pressing 'e' and navigating to the planet pane. Then, enter the planet and exit. This should, hopefully, grant the achievement.
Destroyer of Worlds
This achievement is a bit annoying to obtain. You need to basically overload the game until you cause it to enter a 'destruction' mode.

My best advice, which has been mentioned in the comments to another guide on this discussion board - generate oil spills, preferably in a world view with many items scattered around, enlargen the oil spill with 'r', and spam '+' to generate new oil spills and 'c' to separate them. This should lag the game and cause a 'destruction'. You may need to do this 15-30 times (it's hard to tell) to get the achievement.

Note - some people suggest changing the task priority of the app. I did not try this, but it's worth mentioning nonetheless.
Symmetrizer
For this achievement, you must generate multiple of the same object (try using '+') and press '8' to dance. You must dance for around 10 minutes - the game will not pop the achievement while you are dancing, only after the 10 minutes have elapsed.

According to one guide[psnprofiles.com], you must elapse the 10 minutes in one go - you can't start and stop. Thus, set a timer to keep track. Once the 10 minutes have passed, you should be able to just stop dancing and receive the achievement.
r-Strategist
For this achievement, you must simply continue to duplicate yourself with '+' until the achievement pops. I believe the achievement is obtained once you reach the in-game limit for duplications for a single object.

You should be able to do this with any item.
No Such Things
For this achievement, you must transform yourself multiple times using the 'e' menu. I tried doing it with multiple items, using just one item, using random selections, individual selections, switching between 4-5, spamming between 1-2 options. I could not tell if any of these individually hindered or quickened the process.

Basic premise: use the 'e' menu, select an item, and transform with 'x'. Do this for 10-15 minutes at most, you will receive the achievement.
This Is It
For this, you must clear your mind multiple times using the 'm' thinking menu.

Best advice - enter the golden gate (use 'e', 'other' tab, 'Golden Gate', then descend therein) and clear your mind. You can interact with thoughts with 'x'. It is not clear whether this achievement tracks total times your mind has been cleared or the quantity of thoughts cleared.

Note: I noticed that when clearing my mind in the Golden Gate, I was forced to exit the Gate to get new thoughts to spawn. So please consider this before using this strategy.

Clear your mind 20-30 (or less) times, and you should get the achievement.
The Big Thinker
For this achievement, you must generate thoughts. From my understanding, thoughts are generated only when you have collected thoughts from non-controlled entities - the little thought bubbles that pop up when you are going around the world.

Collect non-user thoughts with 'x', and when the circle/eye at the top of the screen glows white, and the little thought bubble appears above your head, press 'x'. This will generate a thought.

This one took a LONG time for me. Around 12 hours of idling using autoplay and playing actively. Some small tips:
  • If you ascend and descend, in my experience, thought bubbles can appear faster.
  • The Golden Gate method works (especially with autoplay) but I cannot directly state whether it is faster or slower as I was afk for the 4-5 hours that I used it.
  • Do your very best to generate thoughts while playing. It will make your life so much easier at the end of the game.
