100% of achievements except the multiplayer ones, that is. Shadow Hunter and Lantern Run are multiplayer games that absolutely cannot be played successfully single player. They are built around the multiplayer experience, so attempting them is like trying to win a hockey game as a 1-man team. This game was excellent, very artfully executed with lots to look at, and even some particularly creative sections, like the machine world where the entire world twists and reorients around you. The boss fights weren't hard to figure out, and always gave a clear indication of whether I was doing something right. Not a literal health bar, but clear visual indications of progress levels, like three parts to a boss and you destroy one of the three parts with each successful hit, that type of thing. The variety of tools in the flying saucer was appropriate; none of them felt like it was doubling up on another tool, which is among my complaints with FPS games where you carry 5 different things that are actually all the same. Difficult parts weren't so difficult that they made me ragequit. Steering missiles through tight, twisty, turny tunnels was the most frustrating part of the entire game, but even those always made me feel like I could eventually do it. Definitely worth a go, if you like Metroidvania type games but with a little brainpower involved.
