Alternative Sphere is a vertical shmup made by the developers of TWilight refrAIN and TWilight INSanity, it's a pretty interesting shmup which uses some sort of shield for both survival&scoring;, scoring also happens to be insane in this shmup, more info about Alternative Sphere can be found on the Japanese website, if you can't read/speak Japanese I'd say that using Google Translate is an option, even if it's pretty inaccurate, here's the link: http://blue.sakura.ne.jp/~loop/game/as/in This run didn't take long, honestly, When I got this 1cc it was about 1-2 days later than I downloaded this game, I didn't play all that much too, I also did 4-b and 5-b blind, perfected both and got to the TLB which I beat blind too. I failed a lot on stage 3, which made the scoring potentional drop a lot, I just made some minor mistakes which were pretty stupid, I guess I didn't really bother paying attention in that stage.. It's also a sort of no bombs 1cc, I didn't dare to add it because once you get hit you lose 2 lives and you autobomb, bombs cost a life but can save a lot of trouble if you're in the worst of situations, I just didn't do it because I thought it was stupid to rely on them, even though they're better for survival once needed, they'll also make scoring a bit more possible than losing 2 lives, your Twin Tension increases quite a lot though, you want to have that on 0 as far as I know, the base thing is basically wha amount your multiplier multiplies (If I'm correct, if I'm incorrect feel free to corret me.) and your multiplier.. Well.. That's what multiplies the score, you can get it higher by collecting all of the enemy multiplier increasing drops, they help a lot, absorbing bullets with your gaurd is also smart, in the end you can score a lot that way, if you perfect a spell-attack (not bombing and not dying in it) you'll get a multiplier of 2 for that attack, your multiplier needs to reach certain heights per stage for you to be able to go to -b stages, which are a bit different, they seem to be a little harder and some attacks differ in them, pretty sure you can score higher there; yet, you can lose a lot there too, I was lucky to get the right amount for my multiplier on stage 3 to reach stage 4, from there onwards nothing seemed to be a problem. If you want to get the TLB you'll have to: Use no continues, Beat all the -b stages, meat each RATE requirement, I found this out thanks to SnakeEater7771's video, the TLB only got 2 attacks, as I said the TLB was done and therefore the stupidity at the spell attack was reasonable, I still had 4 lives left after the TLB though, it's also worth to mentoin that I perfected 4 of the 6 stages, which's a nice thought since I should be capable of perfecting stage 3 too, getting close to a perfect in stage 6 should be possible if I practice a few patterns. I kinda dislike how this shmup won't save data, replays and controls, no matter if I press Z when I got a replay, it doesn't want to save it, for that matter I live-recorded this, as for the data, I should have the Hoshimi Twins unlocked now, I don't have them because, as I just said, this game saves nothing for me, so I really have to record this all live, sadly, the controls seemed so strange for me, Arrow keys for movement, Z for shooting, X for bombing (Which I never used), C for putting up a gaurd and last but certainly not least, V for focusing, it was rather strange to get used to it, I can hardly move my fingers correctly, I had a lot of stupid bomb moments runs ago because of that, this time around I didn't and played pretty well, guess it's all about getting used to it.. :V I wish I could read a bit about the storyline, yet I do know no place to read it, if anyone got a link for it or wants to post the storyline, I'd be more than happy to see it! Also, since this is a TLB 1cc.. This is the true ending if you play with Asagi Hanna and Hoshimi Maiha (yes, full names in the Japanese order FTW.) yet it's my first 1cc of this game, guess I just have an easy time getting used to other shmups these days. I also love the OST in this shmup, it got some pretty awesome soundtracks which just fit the battles!
