Achievement: Get Some Grub
Requirement: Squish all 333 Antlion Grubs in Episode Two.


The Problem
Normally, you’d have to explore carefully through the entire game and squish every grub. If you miss even one, the counter resets if you restart a chapter from the beginning — which can be frustrating.



The Easy Solution (Using Developer Console)
You can use the developer console to quickly get the achievement without hunting for every grub.

Step 1: Enable Developer Console
  • Load Chapter 2 (or any chapter).
  • Pause the game → go to Options → Keyboard → Advanced.
  • Check Enable Developer Console (~) → click OK.
Step 2: Open Console
  • Press ` (the key under Esc — not the single quote).
Step 3: Spawn Grubs
Type this in console:
give npc_antlion_grub
A grub will spawn near you. Squish it. Repeat until the achievement unlocks.


Bonus: Bind the Command to a Key
Instead of typing the command every time, bind it to a key:
bind k "give npc_antlion_grub"
note: Replace k with any key you like. Now, pressing that key will instantly spawn a grub — just squish away until the achievement pops.

Notes:
  • You don’t need to squish all 333 naturally if you spawn them — the achievement unlocks once the total reaches 333.
  • If you prefer a legit run, remember the counter only decreases if you restart a chapter from the beginning, so always continue from your saves.


Done!
Now you can save yourself the headache of hunting for that one missing grub.

Make sure not to use any other cheats! spawning grub is not counted as cheat by the game so the achievement will not be locked.
