#3 - The Unfinished Swan | Minimalist

"Reach the Watchtower without throwing more than 3 balls"

This trophy suffers from the same kind of issue that Starwhal's Too Easy trophy does. The whole point of this game was to uncover the environment around you by throwing the black paint balls around and painting the otherwise invisible surroundings. This trophy requires you to do pretty much the whole first level nearly entirely blind. You get 3 paintballs.

There's a few critical spots that you'll want to use a paintball in, and when those spots come around you better aim pretty damn good otherwise you'll end up still mostly blind and without any meaningful guide.

For a while, I considered this the worst trophy I had ever gotten because it was the only one that had ever made me feel sick to my stomach. "Moving" while the screen remains completely white and then getting lost and having no idea where I was actually gave me nausea. I had to stop after about 3 attempts of getting lost halfway through so I could wait for a bit to let my head slow down and to let my stomach get right again.

To be honest, I think this trophy is nearly impossible without a guide, and I have a strong principle against trophies like that. I don't know who the first person to figure this one out was, but thank God that someone uploaded a detailed youtube guide (that relied heavily on vocal directions and audio cues because the screen stays white the whole damn time) because otherwise I wouldn't have this trophy.
