The developer has been working on a 3D sequel with 6 degrees of freedom for almost a decade (think Armored Core 6, Ace Combat etc. but with these kind of ships). Everything related to it is on niconico so RIP Tsurugi no Mai (yab 2013): Stage 5 with Sword Breaker, Desperate difficulty [tough] / ツルギノマイ](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_9NgNLoa_pw/mqdefault.jpg)

![KILL KNIGHT [Sever, archblight]: Full clear 4,966,011 (1.0.0, V-V-II-V-II)
Full game mode set to lower difficulty but rearranged with nastier enemy spawns than any of the stage by stage difficulties. This heavy weapon is pretty silly. Im looking forward to messing with the sniper and shotgun more later KILL KNIGHT [Sever, archblight]: Full clear 4,966,011 (1.0.0, V-V-II-V-II)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_qewH0AG3SE/mqdefault.jpg)

![Eigengrau [Hard, Shield 20]: blind playthrough - Original ctrl, no continues (Martin Mauersics 2023)
Clean rollercoaster ride of level design and gameplay concepts that keep you open minded.

![Sektori [Redeemer Revolution]: Campaign ALL clear w/ True ending (2025 Kimmo Lahtinen)
An easier clear with this ship than with Defier, got this in a day of attempts after that one (https://youtu.be/odTqcYG1Zjo). Feels like the most balanced type: the last stages arent as rough + no cheesing with shields.
I got hit three times within the first two stages which is generally real bad. Should be a decent example that you can still recover runs with bad starts in this game (was trying to practice for consistency instead of restarting constantly).
I might give Arcade Revolution a shot some time next year. Can see the default ship doing alright without any cards.
This might be my last upload for this game for a bit but I can see myself playing it for a good while into the future. Just really fun overall, and going for scores is fun in many modes.

![0stRanger [IF]: ST0 6.16M clear (alternate audio)
Scoring focused 6.16 million clear of 0stRanger IF (1.0.4) using str0. You can do a lot better but Im throwing the towel for a bit to take a break from this game.
10mil+ scores should be possible here with near no-miss..
Mixed with other music since my game capture had no audio.
I was a little worried I wouldnt like the scoring system in this but having put some time into it I think its quite solid and encourages cool tricks along with survival (to not drop medal count for end bonus). High level replays should look great.
Older video of my first clear with game audio & music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFMS8CY5B0Q
Score potential for normal mode seems to be around 6mil.
