Easy platinum with developer menu

[DanTheManGum 64]

I wanted to let everyone know about an easy way to access the developer menu and to help in achieving the platinum for this game. All you need to do is plug in a keyboard to your PlayStation (I did it to PS5 but I presume PS4 worked as well) and press the 0 key. From there you can give yourself any number of items, skulls - with re-rolling your skills, dark quartz, money, 10k health, and also give yourself no cooldown on skills. You can also skip to any chapter you want. 
 

I’d suggest an Archlich skull with the following:

Death Trap skill - other skills are really irrelevant with 0 cooldown activated.

8x Master Fighter Helm (this)

1x Mana Bone (this)

 

This setup will 1 shot the bosses but you can also dashboard and close out the game if you are hit for some reason. I know people did this with Jak and Daxter and wanted to let others know about the option for this game. I had a great time with it and love roguelikes as a whole but know some people can have a hard time with these games. 
 

Good luck to those of you going for the platinum.

Thanks for sharing this! I really enjoy Skul but I already put a bunch of hours on the Steam version so it was nice to get myself some trophies!

The developer menu is (still) available in the current version 1.0.2 (in the developer menu it's called 1.3.2 - maybe refering to the version of the PC version).

 

For earning the "The Hero Killer" achivement select "Map List" from the menu, than "Chapter 3" and than the first "1/00.prefab" entry to fight three adventurers. Do this over and over until you get the trophy - no need for dying / finishing the run after reaching 100 or leaving the room after beating the adventurers.

Thanks for the info. Does god mode disable trophies?

I don't think so, but with "no cooldown" you can spam dodges and several heads allow to deal damage through dodging. So I had no need for god mode at the boss fights. Also you can use the next level button in the menu to skip to the boss fight(s) if you mess it up.

Thanks! Also I couldn't find the Master Fighter Helm for some reason. The gear list doesn't seem to scroll down properly so it makes it hard to see. Edit: I didn't realise it scrolls when you go to the right. Ignore me

Don’t worry, it took me hours to figure that one out. Glad to see it helping!

do I have to downgrade even a digital game that has the dlc (tools up), is the procedure the same? download game, dlc and then map the right patch?

I think it's the same, first downgrade the game and then download DLCs, I can't say for sure because I never did it tho. Also if the DLC was released after the patch you are downgrading to, you won't be able to access it
