Check your profile to see which ones you have earned. There are currently only max combo based achievements available, but this will definitely expand over the coming weeks. Achievements are awarded after you pass a song, and this will happen retrospectively.

Please note that achievements can be earned in both ranked and approved maps. They will be visible in osu! when you achieve them in the coming version, all going well.

Yet another great addition! Way to go peppy!

Nice!
Anywhere to look up the earn able achievements, or do we just find out?

I'm thinking they will be on an as-you-find basis. Will probably replace unachieved with "?" blocks on the profile!
Confirming that this will be in the next osu! build on the ranking popup dialog.

What the hell, peppy? Stop making osu! so awesome when I can't even play it. D:
Also, do it the 360 way instead: Most achievements have a description that tells you how to earn them, while some of them are secret. It's not fun to strive for something if you don't know what you're supposed to do.

Placeholder signature. Will probably replace this tomorrow.

Basic achievements like combo and and amount of SSH/SS/SH/S ranks etc etc could be documented and more surprising ones could be secret.

Just a note: It might be a better idea to give achievement notifications after the song, not during it. It could be a fatal distraction on hard maps.

This is how it works.

D'oh.

In any case, would you like a .wav of the 360 achievement noise?

Can you make song specific achievements? Like one for marisa?

And maybe you make the mascot(Pippi) jump for joy and say something at the end to show you've got a achievement.

I'm just throwing this out their.

Peppy, this is AWESOME. Realy. But, i am think that it would be better if you will write how to take achivements. Because i will not try complete all songs on all difficulties to find 2 achivements.

Oh don't worry, they will be structured much better in the future. The 4 now are basically teasers.
