Welcome to the trophy guide for Habroxia. This can also be considered a walkthrough and may be used for PlayStation 4, Vita, Xbox One and Steam. Achievements for Steam and Xbox are in almost all cases the same as the PlayStation 4 Trophies. A roadmap is provided in the stages below.
Follow us on twitter for the latest news and giveaways.
Stage 1 – Notes
Completing Story Mode will get you most of the trophies and unlock other modes. Grab any miscellaneous trophies along the way but don’t worry as there is a level select option afterwards for any that you may have missed.
The kill related and missed ships trophies pop once you are back at the level select screen, not during the level.
Links on how to kill each boss have been added if you are struggling. However the bosses are easy to kill, simply dodge their bullets and shoot them as much as possible. Rockets can be helpful by getting a few extra hits in. Level 4 boss moves sideways and slowly makes his way down the screen, and gets faster, like the original Space Invaders. Follow his movement with your line of fire.
The Level 15 boss will try to suck you in, just pull your ship the opposite way to escape, other than that just dodge the occasional asteroid projectile.
Press R2 to shoot forwards. Pressing L2 shoots sideways (Barely needed) but pressing them both together, R2+L2 makes the bullets shoot forwards but spread out. Very helpful.
Collect the rectangular icons shown beneath your ship in the pic below, they are the games currency, spend in the shop to upgrade your ship. They appear in various colours, depending on the value, but look the same, they will be seen spinning.
When upgrading your ship between levels, focus on Fire rate, Fire Power and Rockets, and possibly Health if you are struggling. You can buy and sell the upgrades as often as you like, if for example you feel a level needs more fire power or you need more Health to complete it, you can tailor the upgrades to suit.
Stage 2 – Path to get all trophies
–Story Mode Start with Story Mode, Completing Levels 1 – 15 whilst considering the information below.
–Upgrade ship and purchase one variety too full/final upgrade. (5 levels to max)

Trophies
Habroxia Platinum
Earn every other trophy
Congrats from the Knoef team
Destroyer
Destroy 2500 enemy ships overall
After you have finished getting all of the other trophies, back out to the main menu of the game and this trophy might pop as this is when the game updates your stats and saves. If not, then one option is too play Invasion Mode again, as this has the most enemies on it, otherwise playing any of the Story Mode levels will suffice, especially how you will be upgraded at this point, making it very easy to get kills.
Collector
Discover all 12 of the lost astronauts in Levels 6 and 12
The astronauts can be seen on level 6 and 12. They will be inside a bubble. Be careful as its possible to shoot them. One bullet destroys the bubble and the 2nd kills the astronaut.
They can be found in slightly different places each time you play the level but always in the same area.
Crowded Ship
Rescue 8 astronauts in one run of Rescue Mode
Unlocks after completing Level 10 of Story Mode
There are more than 8 astronauts so don’t panic if you miss one or 2. Easy to spot, just take you time. They will be inside a bubble. Be careful as its possible to shoot them. One bullet destroys the bubble and the 2nd kills the astronaut.
Once the trophy pops feel free to purposely lose all your lives to end the mode. Don’t quit the game though as you will lose kills and ships missed towards other trophies.
Safety First
Survive for 180 seconds in Shield Maiden Mode
Unlocks after completing Level 15 of Story Mode
As simple as it sounds, survive for 180 seconds. Your weapons are default to weaker though. Please see video below if you are struggling.
Wave Goodbye
Make it to Wave 13 in Invasion Mode
Unlocked after completing Level 5 of Story Mode
Make it to wave 13 and destroy the boss. He will gradually get closer to the bottom of the screen and move faster. Like the Level 4 boss but harder. Try to damage him as much as possible whilst he is still towards the top of the screen. Rockets help get a few extra hits in, but try to keep your line or fire following his movement. See video for example.
Level 15 Complete
Finish the level and destroy the boss
The final level of Story Mode. Finishing this will unlock Shield Maiden Mode.
Level 15 boss will try to suck you in, just pull your ship the opposite way to escape, other than that just dodge the occasional asteroid projectile.
Power Mad
Purchase the final upgrade of any variety
During Story Mode, at the end of a level you have the option to upgrade your ship with coins you have collected during the level. Once purchasing a upgrade for an item 5 times it will reach max level. There might be a chance of getting this trophy earlier by selling all your other items and just buying one item. For example the Pickup Magnet, as its the cheapest. However it is a good idea to save this trophy until after you have finished the story mode and other 3 modes as every coin collected in all modes count towards your total. Go to Story Mode and press Triangle to open the Shop.
Shooter
Destroy 500 enemy ships overall
See Destroyer trophy.
Baking an egg
Find the Perils of Baking easter egg on Level 14
Stick to the left on level 14 once you start to fly vertical. You will see a pathway. Please see video below, skip to 1:20 for exact location. You can shoot it or fly into the Easter egg to get the trophy.

Mistakes add up
Miss 500 enemies overall
Miss 500 enemies means that you haven’t killed them and they have flown passed. Level 14 is good for this especially if you stick to the left path where the Perils of baking Easter egg is. Level 11 is also recommended. All game modes will work towards this trophy. The trophy will pop once you are back at the main menu, not during the level.
