Introduction:
(Official Description from the US Playstation website)
When the Empire begins its reign of destruction in a thirst for natural resources, it’s up to Max Brawley, a retired Gatling Gear pilot, to stop them. Together with his niece and his trusty Gatling Gear unit he must fight his way to the heart of the Empire and eliminate the destruction at its source.

Gatling Gears is a fun little game if you like dual stick shooters. There's a demo you can try if you want to see what it's like before buying. There are several different levels and multiple "areas" of each level to play through. The enemy types are fairly varied in their attacks and overall the game is pretty enjoyable. If you're looking for an easy 100% though, this is probably not the game. Most of the trophies are not too bad, but beating the game on Hard can be quite difficult in spots and it's required for the Veteran trophy.

Roadmap:
Depending on how good you are at dual stick shooters, you may be able to beat the campaign on hard without upgraded parts and skip a second playthrough, however, it is very difficult in my opinion and the path I'll be suggesting below requires two playthroughs of the campaign.

Step 1: Single Player Campaign on Easy
Play through the campaign on easy and collect enough gold bundles to unlock Take it to the Max. Also try to collect Green Peace, Thunder Struck, and Mine! Mine! Mine! while you're playing on easy. If you don't get them the first time through you can always get them via chapter select later. During this step, you'll also unlock the following story related trophies: Iron Man, Second in Command, and Back to Retirement.

Step 2: Chapter Select for Hard Cleanup
Using chapter select, complete each area of each chapter on Hard difficulty. This will get you the Veteran trophy. By doing this through chapter select, you will be able to use your fully upgraded walker, making Hard a bit more manageable.

Step 3: Survival Mode
Complete all three of the survival levels. You'll also need to complete a survival level without dying. I'd recommend just playing through all three arenas first as you may unlock Survival of the Fittest during the course of normal play. Survival mode is not too difficult on Easy. Completing all three arenas will unlock Gladiator.

Step 4: Co-op
At this point you should only have one trophy left, You Never Walk Alone. You can either try to find a partner in the boosting thread or follow the method in the trophy description to do it by yourself.

Gameplay Notes and Tips:

• You can remove an upgrade at any time so feel free to experiment with different combinations for each level if you're having trouble.
• While holding down to aim the grenades, you can also shoot rockets and they will hit the target area. This is a good way to aim rockets at targets which are farther away.
• Rocket boosters give you unlimited ammo for a short time. You'll be able to continue firing even when it appears you're out of ammo. So when you do get a booster, feel free to spam rockets everywhere. Grenade boosters only give you two shots, but they do massive damage.
• After each level you will gain xp points based on your score. These will unlock items in the Unlockables section of the Pirate Shop. Most of these are just visual changes (skins, etc), however the last one, the one in the center that costs 300xp to unlock, will upgrade your weapons some as well. You will probably not hit 300xp until a little ways into your second playthrough though. Anyway, keep this in mind if you are struggling with any trophies. Try them again later after you've unlocked the final suit. Weapons are more efficient with this suit. Grenades hit faster, gun spread is better, rockets move faster, etc. NOTE: Some people have noticed that this skin seems larger, so it may be harder to dodge bullets. Try out both to see which you like better.

Trophy Guide:

Can't Touch This
Complete an area in Katharsis without getting hit
In order to unlock this trophy, you'll need to complete an area of Chapter 5 without getting hit. That's right, you can't take any damage for the entire area. This is one of the harder trophies in the game. Just stick with it and keep practicing and you'll eventually get through.
I'll post the method I used in this spoiler:

Spoiler! (click here to reveal)

From chapter select go to Katharsis->Terminal and select easy First off, play all the way through the level a couple times to learn where all the enemies are. In the very first section run forward and lob a couple bombs at the missile troops and the single tank. This should wipe them out. Next, advance the screen forward VERY slowly until you can just barely see the bottom of the tank across the bridge. Notice the enemies don't fire back when they're that far away. Some enemies will and some won't, you'll learn which ones as you play. This technique helps on many sections of this level so keep it in mind. Anyway, bomb the purple ray shooting tank while it's barely visible on your screen. Then take out the troops in the same way. Inch forward a little more and destroy the walker. Notice it fires back at you even from very far away, so lob two bombs quickly in succession to kill it. Continue to inch forward and kill troops at the edge of your screen. Destroy the first generator from as far back as possible and kill the troops that follow. One of the troops will drop an Invulnerability pickup. Grab it and run into the area and destroy all tanks and walkers while your invincible, but DO NOT destroy the second generator. After everything else is dead, then destroy the building next to the generator first. This will prevent the flamethrower troops from coming out. Now you're safe to destroy the generator and kill the flying enemies that follow. For the next few sections just continue inching forward and blowing up things from afar. Try to blow up any buildings before generators, as destroying a generator will trigger extra troops. But not if the building is destroyed. Once you get to the double bridges going north, blow everything up in the same way from the edge of the screen. One of the enemies will drop a grenade power up. DO NOT pick it up yet. Destroy the generators and clear all enemies on this platform, then pickup the grenade booster and move quickly across the bridge to the north. This is the last area. Lob the powered up grenades at the northeast corner and then the large middle tower area with three cannons on it. Continue to dodge all the red bullets and destroy the shielded enemy in the northwest corner. This will trigger more cannons to fall from the sky and flying enemies will also enter. Wait till the last moment you feel safe and use the Spark Bomb. BOOOOM! You can breathe for a second now. Now all you have to do is kill the final tank and dodge the moving red target that drops bombs. Throw all your bombs and missiles at the tank, and be sure to keep your gatling gun firing to destroy any incoming missiles that aren't red. After emptying all your missiles and bombs on the tank a couple times it will explode and the level will end. If the results screen shows Hits Taken is 0, then the trophy is yours. Congrats!

Back to Retirement
Defeat Julius Steelwell and save the world by destroying The Butler
Story Related, cannot be missed.

Spoiler! (click here to reveal)

This will unlock after completing the final area(The Butler) of chapter 5(Katharsis) in campaign mode.

Veteran
Complete all areas on the hardest difficulty
For this trophy you will need to beat every area on Hard. This can be done through chapter select and all your upgrades will still be applied to the walker. On the bottom left of the chapter select screen you will see the highest difficulty you've beaten each area and overall chapter on. You need to have three stars for each chapter in order for this trophy to unlock.

On Hard, enemies do 4 times the damage they did on easy and you only have 1 extra life as opposed to the 3 on easy. Additionally, there is almost no period of invincibility after you get hit, so if several bullets hit you in a row, most if not all of them will do damage. Try to unlock the final skin in the Pirate Shop as quickly as possible. This will help a little bit when playing the levels on Hard. Be aware though, that hard is still very challenging as things can go bad quickly and there are no checkpoints. The boss battles especially, can prove difficult with only one life and increased enemy damage. Try to learn their attack patterns and save your spark bomb till the third phase when things get crazy.

One final warning, the fourth area of chapter 5 is a beast on Hard. It makes all the previous sections seem simple. Dodging all the waves of bullets will be the key due to the limited amount of damage you can take on Hard. The weapons simply don't do enough damage to kill large vehicles quickly before they start filling the screen with bullets. If you have 100% for Super Stardust HD or similar games, then you might not have much trouble, but for everyone else, just stick with it and keep practicing. If you can somehow make it past all the tanks, walkers, heavy troops, etc, all the way to the end of the level, save the spark bomb because 2 giant tanks show up at the very end and it will be nearly impossible to survive without it.

Right before the tanks come out, there's a small shielded tank on each side. If you only kill one of these tanks, only one giant tank will come, that way you can deal with them one at a time making it a hell of a lot easier.

Gladiator
Clear all Survival mode arenas
This will unlock after completing all three survival levels. This can be done on any difficulty. You will not get your upgraded equipment for survival mode, but it's really not too tough on easy. There are 10 waves you need to survive and level 1 and 3 have additional requirements.

Survival of the Fittest
Complete a Survival mode arena without losing a life
As the trophy says, complete any of the Survival Mode arenas without losing a life. This can be done on any difficulty. I'd recommend the first level, but do whichever you feel comfortable with. It's not too tough on easy, just try to keep constantly moving and take out the larger vehicles as quickly as possible since they usually spam the most bullets at you.

Spoiler! (click here to reveal)

I was able to get this on the first level. There's only a couple waves with a lot of tanks so if you can get past those you should be ok. There's a lot of health drops throughout to keep you in the green part of the health bar. Remember, you only need to save one tower to pass this level so just choose one early and ignore the other. Then all the carts will funnel into one place and you don't have to run back and forth.

Iron Man
Learn how to operate your walker and complete Bootcamp

Spoiler! (click here to reveal)

This will unlock after completing the first area of the Prologue level in campaign mode.

Second in Command
Defeat General Brutus by destroying The Excavator
Story Related, cannot be missed.

Spoiler! (click here to reveal)

This will unlock after completing the final area(The Excavator) of chapter 2(Frostbite Pass) in campaign mode.

You Never Walk Alone
Complete an area in co-op
This can be done on any area of any chapter. It can either be done by yourself with two controllers or you can find a partner in the boosting thread

Two Controller Method:
I'd suggest doing the Bootcamp section of the Prologue chapter on easy difficulty. You will need to move both players to advance the camera. My strategy was to move both till enemies appeared then just leave the second player at the bottom of the screen and kill all the enemies like normal. Don't forget the second player has a spark bomb if things get bad. On easy, you should have no trouble finishing the area.

Take it to the Max
Fully upgrade your walker
The walker can be upgraded at any Pirate Shop. These are located at the beginning of each area. You will need a total of 68 bundles of gold to fully upgrade your walker. There are three bundles in each area, except for the final area of each chapter which only has 1 bundle. Most are in plain sight, but I made a gold bundle guide if you're having trouble finding any. Remember you do not need to collect all gold bundles to fully upgrade your walker. There are 78 total and you only need 68.
Gold Locations Guide

Green Peace
Don't push over any trees in Tresspassers
Tresspassers is the first area of chapter 1(Elysium Fields). Some of the trees on this level will fall over if you walk into them. For this trophy you will need to make sure not to move over any trees. Shooting trees with rockets, grenades, etc. will not cause them to fall over, so no need to worry about that. If you do knock over a tree, just select Restart from the menu.

Thunder Struck
Destroy all lightning harvesters in Fog of War
Fog of War is the first area of chapter 3(Thunder Valley). See the trophy image to find out what a harvester looks like. For this trophy you will need to destroy each one in the Fog of War area. There are a total of 8. See spoiler for text locations. I also made a video of the locations if you prefer that format. The first harvester is around 1:30.

Spoiler! (click here to reveal)

1. About halfway through the area, you'll see it to the left of the road and Max will comment on how the empire finished their power stations. 2. Just past 1, it's off to the right of the road. Use bombs to destroy it because you can't reach it from the road. 3&4. Just north of 2, there are two harvesters to the left of the road 5. After crossing the long bridge moving east and passing through the large minefield, the harvester is on the north side of the road. 6. Farther on, after fighting the large helicopter while crossing the bridge moving west, there's a harvester off the road to the north. Use bombs to destroy it. 7. Not far past 6, you will be moving north across a long bridge. There is a harvester off to the right of this bridge. 8. Continue following the road until you move up a hill into a walled area. There is a harvester in this area opposite the two trains that attack you.

Mine! Mine! Mine!
Don't take any damage from sea mines in Tide of Battle
Tide of Battle is the second area of Chapter 4(The Drylands). You'll see the first mines a little way into the level when one of the characters comments on how the Empire has drained the oceans. Just avoid taking damage from these mines for the entire area and the trophy will unlock. The easiest way is to shoot them before you get close and then wait for them to explode. Just take it slow and make sure not to get too close when they explode. Only the round spiked mines (like in the trophy image) count for this. Anything else that explodes will not affect the trophy.

*reserved*

[yuval75]

very good guide.
I got the "Cant touch this" trophy last night without any guides.
Didnt think there was anyone out there going for it.
Did Chapter 5 , Level 1 (Terminal) a couple of times and after 2 hours finally made it thru without a scartch.
I usually waited after each round until my rockets filled up (6 max) and carried on.
Altho level 2 seems shorter than any other levels on chapter 5...Terminal is the easiest.
Now onto Veteran...dreading this one lol

[xBino]

just finished area 4 on level 5 on hard... what a rush!

i wish there were more levels as epic as that one. the rest of the game feels like a cakewalk now

i suppose you can always unequip all your upgrades

[GregR57]

Level 5/4 and the final boss are the only one i need to get the trophy.
Is there any tips or tactics to make them easier?
(A safe place to avoid the boss's ball like projectiles for example)

[xBino]

The last boss is really easy once you understand the patterns.

the first part with the legs is the easiest, you need to pass this part with no health lost to deal with the difficult third section. It's all pretty manageable I think until the tanks that knock your weapons come out. But by then, the boss' health is pretty much down to zero so it's not too bad. The key is skillful dodging and killing the boss asap, swatting the missiles out of the air and killing enemies is not the priority since the legs are almost dead.

the second part is quite easy as well. you'll notice the shots that come from the left and right turrets fan out to the sides, making dodging bullets and boulders very difficult in those corner areas. the key is staying in the middle to since you only have to dodge the rocks. you'll see a pattern and after a few tries you'll be able to dodge the rocks with no health lost. Rockets seem to do more damage than other attacks, and he should be dead by the time he starts shooting water (or steam?) at you. This is the easiest and fastest part of the boss battle.

the third part with the turret is a pain in the ass. the boss itself is really easy, but the immobilizing tanks make navigating the level impossible. save your rockets to kill the tanks ASAP, they seem to come in intervals of two. i would save your spark bomb for this phase, although it only takes off about 1/3 of his health, so it's more for crowd control. this will be the hardest leg of the boss battle, aim to get here with full health intact and with your spark bomb to give you breathing room.

once you see the pattern this boss is cake. let me know if anything's unclear

[GregR57]

It's quite clear thanks. It's true these immobilizing tanks are really annoying, without them, the third part would be much easier.
As i don't really care for my score, i used the spark bomb during this phase.
It took several tries, but i finally did it.
Now the worst part: julius's nature with it's load of heavily armored tanks and walkers (i hate these walkers)
