This game doesn’t have a save system so make sure you have enough time to complete it in one session. But it does have in game checkpoints that save progress in the current session.
WASD to move, E to interact, LMB = left mouse button, RMB = right mouse button.
This walkthrough avoids the usage of healing items or shooting to get the Dorothy’s Dream and Pain Free! achievements.
Since you can’t use healing items for the Pain Free! achievement, it’s recommended to use the in game checkpoints and sometimes intentionally die if you take too much damage from avoiding enemies.
