Scarlet Skips: How to Get the ‘Off To A Great Start’ Achievement

by

A guide to obtaining the one, (as of creation) only, and VERY DIFFICULT achievement in Scarlet Skips.

 

Introduction

This is a simple, easy-to-understand guide on how to obtain the singular, very challenging, and as of creating this guide, only achievement in the game ‘Scarlet Skips’, published in 2026 by Twitter (supposedly known as X) artist YerkDiff. Created in Unreal Engine, this game offers a seemingly simple jump-rope experience that gradually becomes more challenging as time goes on, with upgrades to rope speed, rope count, whether or not your jump rope is on fire, and rocket fuel. Yes, this jump rope ♥♥♥♥ gets serious.
Upon starting the game:

  • (optional) Open Settings to adjust graphics
  • Hit Play
  • If this is your first time opening the game, you’ll be greeted with an intro cutscene identical to the one in the trailer. You may skip this by holding the left mouse button.

Please proceed to the next section.

Steps to Obtaining the Achievement

This section covers the steps needed to earn the ‘Off To A Great Start’ achievement, after hitting the ‘Play’ button as covered in the first section.
After the intro cutscene (if it’s your first run):

  • Watch as Scarlet swings the jump rope.
  • As the rope approaches her feet, resist any urge to hit the left mouse button, the spacebar, the “W” key on your keyboard, the up arrow key, any controller button at all, or touch your screen if applicable.
  • Your entire life has led up to this moment. If you time your jump correctly and jump over the rope, earning 1 score, you’ll be a FAILURE. You’ll be REJECTED by your peers. You’ll be ISOLATED from society. Deprived of EVERYTHING and EVERYONE you once held dearly in your heart. Your spouse will LEAVE you. They’ll take your CHILDREN. Hector, I miss you. Please come back. Please. I can’t live like this anymore. I NEED YOU. COME BACK

If successful, Scarlet will trip on her rope and fall to the floor. You will then obtain the achievement, and (again, as of creation) 100% Scarlet Skips.
