Catch Them all.
Collect all Trophies
Metaloid: Origin is a very hard game in terms of difficulty and trophies:
You need to beat the game 3 times, once with each character, and one of the walkthroughs needs to be on hard difficulty
You need to collect 5 big gems, from the first 6 levels
You need to collect each upgrade from the first 6 levels, with all 3 characters
You need to find Aeon as a secret boss in the 4th level, Desolation Desert, and the 6th level, Northern Base and defeat him
You need to buy all the upgrades and weapons for each of the 3 characters
During the 4th level, Desolation Desert, you need to press up and jump while on a bike to throw it into an enemy
During the 6th Level, Northern Base, you need to either lure Ice Trumper, the mid boss, to destroy the ice and fall or kill him before he destroys the ice
In the 7th level, Star Ladder, you need to defeat Aeon, the mid boss, with the dash attack in midair, but you need to make sure you have the flame kick upgrade on Erika before attempting this
In the 8th level, Space Fleet, you need to destroy the 4 reactors without using the big robot called Glora
In the 9th level, you need to defeat the Origin Titan, the last boss, without using the recovery power and the big robot Glora
Luckily, you have level select, but i would recommend you try to do all the trophies from first try so you can save some time
In terms of gameplay, this game is very hard, but here are some tips and tricks that might help you along the way:
Remap the controls, put the shooting on R2, dash on L2 and power on R1, change power on circle and change weapons on triangle and square
Collect all the big gems on all the walkthroughs because it will help you with the upgrade and weapon costs
If you do not have enough gems to buy everything when reaching the reactor room, then keep gathering all the gems from that room then die and do it again until you can buy everything
While using the motorbike, do not press jump and up, it will throw the bike away
While using the robot, Glora, and the spaceship, you cannot shoot and turn, so you need to stop shooting before facing the other way
While using the ship, you cannot shoot and use the special power at the same time
I would recommend using Neva for the hard walkthrough, because her Glora has an auto target
