I just found a bug that makes the hard badge easy... Step 1: Watch animation of penguin walking to the ramp. Step 2: Go to another tab on your browser when your penguin jumps. Step 3: Wait for 4-5 seconds then enter the game again. your penguin will have accelerated as if the ramp was actually that long. got glider on 1st jump and rocket on second.

I have an idea of how to get the hard badge. 1st day can get you $17 max so 3 days with no upgrades can get you a glider. As long as you have the right glider and rocket you can usually get the speed/height ingame achievements by literally rocketing upwards as soon as you leave the slope while the other two you get from playing the game properly lol. Either way In game achievements give money so getting the hard badge means focusing entirely on getting them. Give this a + if the idea helped you cut your record a bit.
