Overview
Qbeh-1: The Atlas Cube is a 3D puzzle platforming game, and a game that I really enjoyed playing through, so I thought I'd put this guide together to help others with the game. This guide has walkthroughs for each of the levels in the game, as well as the token location in each level. Below those videos are descriptions and guides for each achievement in the game. If you are going for the Dry Feet or Worthy achievements, all of the below videos satisfy the requirements for both of those playthroughs, so you can use the below videos as a guide for how to complete the levels.

The token is collected at 1:23

Level 4-5: Labyrinth:
I recorded 2 different ways to get the token in this level. The first involves collecting cubes while the second relies instead on making a few jumps that can be a bit tricky. The first way is longer but it is easier and safer, but the second way feels cool if you can get it down.

Way 1 (Longer & Easier): The token is collected at 3:41

Way 2 (Shorter & Harder): The token is collected at 1:24

Level 4-6: Wind Shrine:
The token is collected at 4:09
World 5
Level 5-1: Headwaters:
The token is collected at 7:18

When completing this level, normally you won't get stuck like I do after collecting the token. To insure you don't get stuck, make sure you aren't anywhere beneith a stationary cube when riding the green one up. Instead of repeating the last section, you can just ride the green cube up, then use a purple cube field to jump your way back up to the gate (there is a 3 block high ledge on the left side when facing the gate that you can jump up to).

Level 5-2: Library:
The token is collected at 3:24

Level 5-3: Palace:
The token is collected at 1:40

Level 5-4: Basin:

Achievements
Progession Achievements

Powered Up The Atlas
You will get this achievement simply by playing through the game if you progress far enough. It specifically unlocks at the end of 5-6

Gameplay Achievements

There is a good chance that you will earn these during regular gameplay, but in case you don't, here's a quick video showing how to quickly get both of these in one go:


Can I Fly, Daddy?
No, you can't! Simply fall off any level and die to unlock this one
Rage Quit
Immediately after falling off any level, open up the menu and quit to desktop to unlock this achievement

Token Achievements

These achievements are gotten by collecting all the tokens in a specific set of levels. When searching for tokens, note that they do play a particular, high pitched, noise when you get close, so you can use that to tell when you are close, although note that it may be on the opposite side of a wall or otherwise hidden nearby. The location of each token is shown in the above videos.

Explorer 1
Collect all the tokens from World 1
Explorer 2
Collect all the tokens from World 2
Explorer 3
Collect all the tokens from World 3
Explorer 4
Collect all the tokens from World 4
Explorer 5
Collect all the tokens from World 5
Explorer 6
Collect all the tokens from World 6
100%
Collect all the tokens from Worlds 1-6

Easter Egg Achievements

These achievements are found by discovering various easter eggs throughout the game. Do note that many of these are later in the game, so if you aren't done with all the levels yet, don't be discouraged if you haven't found them yet.

Wrong Temple?
Find the hidden Triforce. It is hidden in Level 6-5 and is shown at 2:26 in the video above
Music Room
Find the Music Room, the reclusive abode of the Launchable Socks Wizard. It is hidden in Level 6-6 and is shown at 3:59 in the video above
Persistence
Last for the longest posible time in the Atlas Cube Room. How to do this is shown in the video below.

Playthrough Achievements

These achievements require you to play through the game while satisfying certain conditions. The above videos satisfy all of these conditions, so if you need guideance on a level you can watch how it is done above. If you are having trouble with these achievements, you can create two new profiles and play each level repeatedly on the first until you get the feel of it, then switch to the second profile and complete it there. If you want to be extra safe, you can backup your save file periodically and if you fail a level, you can just backup that save and try again.

Dry Feet
Get to the Atlas without ever stepping in water. You can tell when you've stepped in water by the splashing noise that plays. I am fairly certain that dying or touching the purple gel does not count against this achievement
Worthy
Get to the Atlas without dying. This is probably the hardest achievement to get, and will likely require practice and dedication. If you are having trouble, try the strategies mentioned above

Community Level Achievements

These achievements are related to the Community Level feature, and were added with that feature. They are not hard to get.

Community Explorer
Find a Community Level and play through it. There are plenty to pick from so find a good one and enjoy it
Architect
Create and publish a level. Below are a few resources, the first on how to use the level editor, and the second on how to design top-quality levels. The level you create doesn't have to be anything complex to unlock the achievement, but if you put in a little effort, I'm sure you can make a great level!

Non-Achievement Easter Eggs
There are a few Easter Eggs hidden in the game other than those for achievements.

There is a Companion Cube hidden in level 2-5 and is showcased at 1:13 in the video above.

The Wizard that is the logo for the soundtrack's composer, Launchable Socks, can be found in many levels throughout the game. Note that this list is not exhaustive, as the wizard makes MANY appearances, and it is not clear if all of them have even been found.
  • Level 2-2: Instead of collecting the first blue cube, stand on top of it and you can see a wizard in the window
  • Level 2-6: At 3:09 in the video above
  • Level 5-4: At 3:37 in the video above
  • Level 5-5: At 1:23 in the video above
  • There is on in the Music Room, described above

Credit for 2-2 goes to I'm Different!
Conclusion
I hope this guide was able to help. If there is anything I could change to make this guide more helpful, anything that you'd like more explaination for, or something that (god forbid!) is incorrect, don't hesitate to let me know in the comments below! Thanks for reading!

For 4-5, there is an even easier way to get the token. Instead of picking up the first blue cube (0:49 in your 'short' video) just jump on it instead and jump into the big gap on the left. No need to make tricky jumps.

Found another Wizard on level 2-5. From the start, go forward, then left. Go right into a small room. The Wizard is on the back side of the cube on the ground to your right.

rage quit only work if you downgrade the game to version 1.1.3.

About your note in 5-1, you can also go round the side, next to the token.

Thanks. I'm too lazy to find the tokens and want to play world 6 ^^
leechrot 23 feb, 2021 @ 20:23 
ohh okay thank you! and yeah I am gonna play it through I just got a bit worried that I was never going to get the achievement haha thank you again!

If you go to the Profiles button on the main menu, you can create and manage profiles from there. You can no longer get the dry feet or not dying achievements on the profile you were playing when you touched water and died, but if you create a new profile and start over from the beginning you'll be eligible again. They're both really hard though, if you haven't played through the game once I would recommend coming back and attempting them in a later playthrough, just so the first playthrough isn't frustrating.
leechrot 23 feb, 2021 @ 12:00 
hello I'm sorry for my ignorance. I'm not sure what you mean by the creating new profiles thing. I accidentally hit the wall and fell in the water on level one and already jumped off the edge to get the flying cheevo. Is it impossible to get the don't die and don't get your feet wet cheevos now?
Jackal 15 dec, 2019 @ 14:49 
I did it, I got dry feet achievement after my 3rd playthrough. :) Thank you again for your great guide, Hippo.

I'm pretty sure that the save method you mention should work. I'm surprised it didn't work when you used alt-f4
