Foreword
Zortch (Maxinum Against the Alien Brainsuckers) is a charming N64-styled shooter featuring 20 levels spanning five episodes and a total of 6 achievements.
Since the said achievements are rather meta compared to ones from similar games, discovering them on one's own by taking cues from the relevant icons and descriptions is highly advised. Still, this guide provides clean-cut pointers for getting them all in case you miss some along the way.
The guide lists them in order of 'first chance of unlocking' and categorizes them into three levels from the first episode. Note that any previously completed level can be replayed via 'Level Select'.
E1M1
These two can be done any time on any level, yet are listed under E1M1 to keep things simple.
Unexpected Event I did not expect this to happen.
Click on 'Help' from the main menu and get a crash course in basic mechanics.
This Is Not Doom! ...but nice try anyway.
Drop down the console via the tilde (") key, type in iddqd[doomwiki.org]and press enter.
Tough luck! If you are in need of working ones, try: bee, guthood, lab and runandgun.
E1M2
These two are related to Pugon Pistol and the tripmines.
Advanced Technology I did not know I can do that.
Assuming you already have a Pugon Pistol, grab the first batch of tripmines from secret #5:
Create a ballistic shield by alt-firing Pugon Pistol and plant a tripmine on the said shield:
It's Mine Now! All mine!
Following on, get close to the planted tripmines found right after the stairs and steal one:
Interestingly, this achievement can also be unlocked while watching the pre-recorded demos that are looped in the main menu, in one of which the dev utilizes the mechanic in question.
E1BOSS
These two can also be done on any level that contain a Brainsucker as a regular enemy.
Back to Sender! You can have it back!
Back to Sender... Again! I told you I don't want it!
Wait for the boss' projectile attack and counter it with a kick. Then, be on the lookout for another projectile and send it back by using Multi-tool's alt-fire this time:

I know, I will update the guide when I have the time and energy for it. Yet, the new achievements are pretty straightforward, as mentioned earlier in the comments. Beat bosses (unmissable, 6 achievements), finish all levels with 100% secrets (15+1, see pagb666's video guides if you need help), beat the game on all difficulty levels (5, does not stack, yet you can cheat out of it - see forum threads about 'chievos) and defeat rare enemies (6, more or less unmissable on higher difficulty levels). Rare enemy notes, in case needed:
--
E1M1 (Not So Maxed): 1, 3, 6 / E1M2 (Not So Maxed): 5 / E2M3 (Warrior): 4.

I was like why are a lot of these achievements missing for me (I only had 3/6 of those after 2 playthroughs).

Advanced technology - I would know if I had the photo with color available (as the photo of missing achievements is in black/white, I really didn't get what was in there lol.

This is not Doom - honestly I feel embrrassed about not figuring out this one, I had a feeling it is about invulnerability, but not about Doom's invulnerability cheat specifically.

Back to Sender - I wouldn't figure this one out ever. I remember trying to kick that projectile a few times and failed, so I didn't think it was the way to get that achievement lol.

Back to Sender was kind of hard but I did it! Thanks for the help everyone

All right erc, so as I thought they are straight forward besides the secrets which as you say pabg666 already made a guide for those. So no need to update the guide probably, of course it's your decision.

Muckelchen, I will add screenshots for the secrets (for which, you can refer to pabg666's video guide for now) but t I have been pretty busy in RL and haven't found the time and energy yet to do so. Rare enemies are encountered on a regular playthrough, there is nothing specific to be done about them. The rest is straight-forward (they are 100% progression and completion ones).

Hey, just curious: will you update the guide or are the new achievements pretty much straight forward?
