'''''DoDonPachi DaiOuJou''''' (JP: 怒首領蜂大往生, abbreviated: '''DOJ''', iOS/Android: '''''DoDonPachi Blissful Death''''') is the fourth entry in the [[:Category:DonPachi series|DonPachi series]] of shoot-em-ups (the third developed by [[CAVE]]). It is one of the most well-regarded games in CAVE's catalog of shooters. DOJ introduced the '''[[Hyper System]]''' to the series, which allowed the player to give all of their firepower an enormous boost in strength, in exchange for increased game difficulty.

There are two versions of ''DoDonPachi DaiOuJou'' that were released to the arcades; ''White Label'' and ''Black Label''. ''White Label'' is what the original release of the game is referred to as, and ''Black Label'' is a revised version of the game containing a selection of mechanics adjustments and bug fixes, as well as the option to select between a one-loop or two-loop game. When differentiating between the two, people abbreviate the game as "DOJ WL" for White Label and "DOJ BL" for Black Label.

==Gameplay==
===Overview===
The controls in DaiOuJou are identical to the previous games in the series. The joystick (or controller on the PS2 version) moves the ship. Tapping button 1 fires standard shots, and holding button 1 fires the laser weapon. Pressing button 2 activates a hyper if one is available, or uses a bomb if no hypers are in stock. If the laser is active the bomb is an amplification of the laser weapon; otherwise it is an explosion that covers the screen. In all cases the player becomes invincible for a short period. There is also an option to enable button 3, which automatically fires only the standard shots, otherwise known as "auto(matic) fire".

DaiOuJou follows the conventions of the previous game with only a few changes. The chaining system is intact and works in much the same way. Causing an enemy to explode fills a meter, and every enemy destroyed before the meter depletes adds to the current chain and again refills the meter. Holding the laser weapon over a large enemy will hold the meter steady and slowly accumulate hits. In this way it is possible to create a single chain out of any of the 5 stages.

===Fighters===
* TYPE-A: High speed, fires front concentration shots
* TYPE-B: Low speed, fires wide front area shots

Type B shot speed is slightly faster in the Black Label version than it is in the White Label version.

===Element Dolls===
The selection of Element Dolls is similar to the selection of Shot or Laser variants in DoDonPachi. A doll is chosen after a fighter type is selected.
* DFSD-010 SHOTIA: Increases shot power, 3 bombs (max 6)
* DFSD-014 LEINYAN: Increases laser power, 2 bombs (max 4)
* FSD-002 EXY: Increases shot and laser powers, 1 bomb (max 2)
When the player loses a life, the revived fighter's enhanced weapon is reduced in power by one level, while the non-enhanced weapon's power is reduced to its lowest level. In the case of Expert type, both weapons are lowered by only one level upon death. Also, a player's maximum bomb capacity may be increased after respawning.

===Hitbox===
[[File:HitboxDOJ.png|thumb]]
Here are the position and size of the hitbox depending of the ship

These are the actual hitbox dimensions in hexadecimal values (0x40 subpixels = 1 pixel), where Y+,X+ is the top-right corner and Y-,X- is the bottom left corner.
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Type/Game !! Y+ !! Y- !! X+ !! X- !! Pixel size
|-
| Type A (WL) || 0x100 || 0xC0 || 0xC0 || 0xC0 || 7x6
|-
| Type B (WL) || 0xC0 || 0x100 || 0xC0 || 0xC0 || 7x6
|-
| Type A (BL) || 0x80 || 0x100 || 0x80 || 0x80 || 6x4
|-
| Type B (BL) || 0x100 || 0x80 || 0x80 || 0x80 || 6x4
|-
| Type A (DDP3) || 0xC0 || 0x100 || 0xC0 || 0xC0 || 7x6
|-
| Type B (DDP3) || 0x140 || 0x80 || 0xC0 || 0xC0 || 7x6
|}

When moving to the side, the hitbox is slightly thinner

===Stages===
There are 5 stages per loop.

The second loop becomes available if the player completes the first loop and satisfies at least one of the following requirements:

* Loses at most 2 lives
* Uses at most 3 bombs
* Collects all 10 bees in at least 3 stages. The bees in each stage must be collected without dying before the boss (basically, collect the "2x bee" in at least 3 stages).
* (White Label Only) When finishing the first 5 stages with more than 350 million

When entering the loop, not all resources from the first loop are carried over equally. The following table indicates how resources are carried between the first and second loop:

{| class="wikitable"
|- style="font-weight:bold; text-align:center;"
! style="font-weight:normal; text-align:left;" |
! White Label
! Black Label
|-
| style="text-align:right; font-weight:bold;" | Life Stock
| Set to 01
| Carried over
|-
| style="text-align:right; font-weight:bold;" | Bomb Stock
| Reset to default
| Carried over
|-
| style="text-align:right; font-weight:bold;" | Bomb Capacity

|-
| style="text-align:right; font-weight:bold;" | Hyper Stock
| Carried over2
| Carried over
|-
| style="text-align:right; font-weight:bold;" | Hyper Charge
| Set to 0
| Any full charged bars are discarded, any partial charge is preserved
|}

1 In White Label, all stocked lives are removed upon entering the loop; however, the player can earn lives back by either no-missing or no-bombing stages. 
2 Due to a bug, Hyper stocks carried over from the first loop will not work properly in the second loop in White Label until at least one Hyper is earned in the loop.

If the player then defeats the regular stage 2-5 boss, the true final boss of the game, Hibachi, appears.

===Extends===
On default settings, the player starts with 2 extends.
There are 2 scoring based extends, one at 10 million, the other one at 30 million for the White Label version, one at 20 million, the other one at 50 million for the Black Label version.
There is one hidden extend in stage 4, if the player destroy both side parts of the midboss before destroying the central part (the central part must not be destroyed by a bomb), a 1-up item will appear. The player need to grab this item to get the extend.
It is possible to get this hidden extend in both loops.
The player can get more extends during the 2nd loop under some conditions :
* In White Label, every time the player clears a stage without bombing or without dying (or both), he will get an extend during the transition to the next stage.
* In Black Label, if the player starts a stage of the second loop without any extends, if he clears the stage without dying, he will be awarded an extend during the transition to the next stage. If the player picks up the hidden extend during stage 2-4, this will not work.

===Bombs===
Depending on which ship the player choose and how many lives were lost, he is given a certain number of bombs.
At the start of the game, the player will have :
* 3 bombs for Shot type
* 2 bombs for Laser type
* 1 bomb for Expert type
Then if the player dies, he will have a full bomb stock and an additional bomb unless he died while being in hyper mode or if he already had the maximum bomb stock on his previous life. The maximum bomb stock is :
* 6 bombs for Shot type
* 4 bombs for Laser type
* 2 bombs for Expert type

Whether the player is pressing the bomb button while using shot or laser, the bomb will be different.
If he presses the bomb button while using shot, the bomb will take the form of a big explosion that will clear all the small enemies. All the bullets are canceled and turn into star items at the moment of the explosion and bullets don’t spawn during the whole duration of the bomb.
If he presses the bomb button while using laser, the bomb will take the form of a big laser that will deal a lot of damage to anything in front of the player ship. The bullets are canceled (but no star items in this case) just at the moment the bomb button is pressed (but they will keep spawning during the bomb).
In both case, the player is invulnerable during the whole duration of the bomb.

Bombs items are pretty rare in the game. After the player destroys the ship that carries them, they stay on the screen for a while, following a predictable rectangular movement then they disappear from the screen after a while
If a bomb is collected while the stock is already full, instead of seeing the number of bomb displayed, the player will see the message : “maximum”. Which means that, for every frame outside of boss fight, he will earn bonus points while this message is displayed. For each life lost and bomb used, this bonus decrease, so to maximize the score, it is best not to die and bomb at all if possible. This bonus becomes much more important in the second loop.

===Chaining===
Chaining is the most important part of Daioujou scoring system. Whether the player preserves or breaks his chain is determined by the chain gauge. Every time an enemy is killed, the chain gauge will go up, else it will go down at a constant speed. If it goes all the way down, the chain breaks.
If an enemy is killed with shot, the chain gauge is filled completely but if an enemy is killed with the laser, the chain gauge will only be filled up to 50%. But holding the laser on a big enemy can preserve the chain. In this case, instead of going down, the chaining gauge will stay at 25%.
As in the previous DonPachi games, scoring in Daioujou is all about achieving and properly maintaining a high combo chain. As the point value of the enemies you destroy and some items you collect are multiplied by the current chain counter.

===Bee item===
Bees play an important role in DaiOuJou, and are worth 1,000 points multiplied by the number of hits in the current combo chain. Uncovering a bee item with the Laser will add a HIT to the current chain counter, and it will refill the chain gauge by 50%. If a player can collect all ten bee items in a stage without dying, the last item will have an additional x2 multiplier. Collecting all the bee items in a stage will also increase their default value by 1,000 for every subsequent stage. Collecting every bee item in both loops without dying outside of boss fights will cause the bee items to be worth 10,000 points each in the final stage!
The player can fill the Hyper Gauge by collecting a bee item while having at least a 20-HIT chain.

In Black Label, collecting a bee item with a 20 to 39 hit chain will fill 3% of the Hyper Gauge, having a 40 to 59 HIT chain will give 6%, and so on until the player has a 200+ HIT chain, which fills 30% of the Hyper Gauge.

However, collecting a bee item while in Hyper Mode won’t give any hyper gauge. That’s why, at many points in the game, it is better to collect the bees before activating the hyper mode, or just after the hyper ends.

===Hyper item===
This is an addition to the series. A hyper meter is incorporated into the upper-left status display and is filled by chaining, collecting bees, and dying, amongst other things. When the meter is filled, a hyper item falls from the top of the screen, unless the player is currently in a boss battle. A player can hold up to 5 hyper items at any one time.

When a hyper is activated, all hyper items are used at once with an effect proportional to the amount of hypers consumed. A hyper causes the player's fighter to be invincible for a short while (80 frames of invulnerability during stages, 120 frames during bosses), and amplifies the powers of both normal fire and the laser. Once the timer runs out the player's ship returns to normal. As a side effect, all enemy bullets move faster when the hyper is activated, increasing the "RANK" difficulty level of the game, until a bomb is used during hyper mode or when the player's ship is destroyed. This effect does not disappear when the hyper wears off. Using a bomb during a hyper will end it immediately; dying causes the player to lose all in-stock hyper items. Using a hyper while there is an uncollected hyper item will transform it into a large star (which gives 10.000 points).

''How to get hypers :''
In order to get an hyper, the player need to fill the hyper gauge. When the hyper gauge is full, an hyper medal should drop from the top of the screen but there are some exceptions :
* If the hyper gauge is filled when the hyper mode is still active, the hyper medal won’t drop. Instead, the player will get an hyper cancel.
* During a boss fight if there is at least one bomb in stock. To make an hyper drop during a boss fight, the player can fill an hyper gauge without any bomb in stock, use all the remaining bombs or die during hyper mode without any bomb in stock if he has at least 1 full hyper gauge.

When the player fills an hyper gauge but is in one of the two situations mentioned before, instead of making an hyper drop, he will get an hyper cancel. All the bullets on the screen disappear at the very moment the hyper gauge is filled. This can be especially useful on some stage sections and boss fight.

''Hyper item properties :''
Once they appear from the top of the screen, if the player does not pick them up, they will slowly go down until they hit the bottom of the screen and then they will go up until they exit the screen by the top.
If the player activates an hyper while there is an hyper item on the screen, the hyper item will turn into a 10 000 points star and this hyper item is “wasted”.

''How to fill the hyper gauge :''
The hyper gauge can be filled by killing enemies. Killing small enemies with the shot gives more hyper than killing them with the laser. This means it is possible to regulate the speed at which the hyper gauge is filled by deliberately choosing to kill the popcorn enemies with shot or laser.
It is also possible to gain hyper by using the laser on big enemies and bosses, it gives even more hyper by pointblanking them because the aura is also touching them (note : pointblanking can also give more hits). This means it is also possible to regulate the speed at which the hyper gauge is filled during boss fights by dealing damage with the shot instead of the laser for example.
Losing a life fills 25% of a full Hyper Gauge (to be verified for White Label)
The final way to fill the Hyper Gauge is to collect a bee with at least a 20-HIT chain (see the “Bees” paragraph)

Important note :
When the hyper gauge is filled by collecting a bee or dying, there is no leftover.
For example, in Black Label if the hyper gauge is filled at 80% and the players grabs a bee with a 700-HIT combo chain, he should get 30% of hyper gauge, but in this case, he will fill the hyper gauge, make an hyper item drop and start the new gauge at 0%. Which means he only gained 20% of hyper gauge.

===Rank===
DoDonPachi DaiOuJou has a hidden ranking system, one that makes the game harder as the rank increases. Rank is increased by using Hypers, and the amount it increases is proportional to the level of the hyper used. Rank can only be decreased by bombing during hyper mode or losing a life.

===Star and Medal items===
The star and medal items are pretty much worthless in comparison to the other aspects of the scoring system.

Picked up during stage gameplay
small star = 500 pts
small medal = 500 pts
Big star = 10 000 pts
Big medal = 10 000 pts

Stars attracted during hyper cancels are worth 500pts/star.

===End-stage Bonus===
If no-miss : take into account all the stars and medals collected only during this stage, If one or more deaths (during the stage or boss) : take into account the stars and medals collected since the last death.

Nb of stars X 1000 pts

Nb of medals X 2000 pts

BOSS HIT BONUS

Stage 1 : 300 000 + 1,5 x BOSS_HITS

Stage 2 : 400 000 + 2 x BOSS_HITS

Stage 3 : 500 000 + 2,5 x BOSS_HITS

Stage 4 : 600 000 + 3 x BOSS_HITS

Stage 5 : 700 000 + 3,5 x BOSS_HITS

Always true, no matter how many deaths during stage section or boss fight.
Stage 1-1 and 2-1 BOSS HITS BONUS is counted the same way, same for 1-2 and 2-2, 1-3 and 2-3, ...

''Funny detail :''
The scrolling of the BOSS HIT BONUS is not synchronized with the reverse scrolling of the HITS.

=== Bugs ===
[[File:DOJ score display glitch.jpg|thumb|200px|right|The 7th score digit is displayed as a semicolon<ref>Occured during fufufu's demonstration at Stunfest 2018: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUF3299XqLc&t=2910s YouTube]</ref>]]
==== White Label ====

* If the player carries a hyper over from 1-5 into 2-1, it does not properly activate in 2-1. This glitch is reset after picking up another hyper item in 2-1.

==== White Label'' & ''Black Label ====
* If a hyper item appears on screen the same frame a midsize enemy is destroyed with the laser, the chain gauge does not refill from the destruction of the enemy and the chain breaks immediately.
* Bee Medal Overflow Bug: Due to a BCD problem, the score gained from picking up a bee medal is sometimes calculated incorrectly depending on the hit count of the active chain. The user [[User:Trap15|Trap15]] has posted a simulator on his Twitter.<ref>[https://twitter.com/trap0xf/status/1589280723999264768 Trap15's Twitter] (November 6, 2022)</ref> This bug has then been analyzed from a scoring perspective by Rokukichi.<ref>[https://rokulpg.blogspot.com/2022/11/blog-post.html Rokukichi's Blog] (November 8, 2022)</ref>
* Resulting from the Bee Medal Overflow Bug: If the number created is not a valid BCD number, a visual glitch occurs with the 7th score digit causing it to be displayed as a symbol instead of a number, such as '>', '=' or ';'. Interestingly, if you game over with the glitch active, the glitched score number will show as a regular digit, but it will be a different color from the rest of the score. This glitch does not have any adverse effect on gameplay other than an odd display.
* Invulnerability frames after hyper activation during bosses on 2p side is 80 and not the usual 120 as it is the case for 1p side. During stages, there is no difference between 1p and 2p side (both 80 frames).<ref>[https://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?t=64256 Shmups Forum: Differences between 1P and 2P player sides (various games)]; Additionally confirmed by [[User:Trap15|Trap15]]</ref>

==Plot==
===Synopsis===
Centuries have passed since the [[DoDonPachi | catastrophic war]] that almost cost the human race its complete annihilation at the hands of the deranged Colonel Schwarlitz Longhener, leader of the DonPachi Corps: a military squad of starfighter pilots known for their combat prowess and emotional detachment (as a result of the inhuman training they are subjected to - the [[DonPachi | first game]] being a prime example of it, with the trainee actually slaughtering comrades posing as the enemy); whatever remained of his genocidal army was gathered, transported to the Moon and sealed within a network of caves, left to rot away as the nightmares faded into legend.

The human race flourished again, to the point of colonizing the Moon itself, the megacity of Lunapolis being the hub of human activity on lunar soil. However, as time passed, the dormant machines reawakened, rebuilt, evolved: the caverns of the planet swarmed with all sorts of advanced war machines, and automated production facilities, at their core a heavily guarded platform where the ultimate fighting machine of the past, the mechanical bee Hibachi (this time named 緋蜂, lit. "Scarlet Bee"), was slowly being rebuilt. Still following their original programming, the machines broke the seal, invading the surface and quickly seizing control of the almost defenseless Lunapolis, its streets and facilities now completely overtaken and littered with heavy artillery emplacements.

With little time to spare, the DonPachi Corps are reactivated, with enough time to build only two fighters; nevertheless, to each was bestowed the assistance of an Element Doll, highly evolved sentient droids (apparently widespread in human society by then, and treated as little more than slaves) capable of providing tactical data and enhancing the craft's own capabilities. Knowing that the mission is plausibly suicidal, the two attack ships are deployed on the Moon surface, just outside Lunapolis, alone against a ruthless army of machines with a single objective; killing.

===Ending===

The game's ending reveals, in a chilling twist, that the Element Dolls are, in truth, cybernetic beings built by forcefully turning human beings into servants, laborers and soldiers, their minds and wills rewritten and bent to the whim of Earth's upper class. Then, a Doll-specific coda is shown:

* '''Shotia:''' Interfacing with the enemy's computer network and forcibly shutting it down, Shotia is finally pulled out of the fighter jet by her pilot, who has come to grow feelings for the biomechanical soldier. As he holds her however, her mind is overcome by a virus hidden in Hibachi's mainframe and slowly deteriorates, each memory being deleted until, at last, tears accompany the Doll's final ones, those of her in her human days, before being abducted and converted. With a smile, Shotia dies.
* '''Leinyan:''' Having finally destroyed the devilish war machine Hibachi and ensuing the collapse of the enemy's computer network, the fighter plane returns to base, the pilot's mission completed. However, Leinyan rebels against her masters, having fallen in love with her pilot, who is forced to watch helplessly as she is dragged away, deactivated and her body dissected for research. In an atypical subversion of the series' dark endings, the Doll's consciousness takes control of the laboratory's systems, escaping into cyberspace and, finally, reuniting with her lover.
* '''EXY:''' In a desperate attempt to shut down the enemy's computer network, EXY interfaces with it and delves within the massive data stream with her own consciousness. The attempt is successful, however the information flow drives her mad (it is implied that she discovered Colonel Schwarlitz Longhener's involvement and betrayal), who ultimately breaks free from the fighter's armor and, in a fit of blind rage, chokes the pilot and slaughters the accompanying infantry escort. This, along with the deranged realization that mankind is the one true enemy to defeat, ultimately leads to the events depicted in [[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu | Dai-Fukkatsu]].

==Version Differences==
===DoDonPachi III===
An export/international version named DoDonPachi III, a precursor to Black Label<ref>[https://www.gamengai.com/#/cmnt-info?id=1966 IKD in Black Label Interview]</ref>, was released. In 2016, this version was dumped and made widely available. 

===Black Label===
This variant was a limited edition release. The arcade board includes the original and Black Label versions, which can be selected during boot time. The Black Label game can be identified by the black title screen. The original version is referred to as '''White Label'''.

Changes in Black Label include:

* The player can select 1 Loop Mode or 2 Loop Mode at the beginning of the game, after selecting a battle fighter and Element Doll. In 2 Loop Mode, after completing stage 1–5, the player now has the option to play the second loop as before, but in 1 Loop Mode, the player immediately fights Hibachi after defeating the normal final stage boss.
* The player is no longer reduced to only one life when entering the 2nd loop.
* The player can continue should they lose all their lives in the 2nd loop by inserting more coins and pressing START (and a second player can join in), up until they reach the true final stage.
* The game is easier in general. The enemy bullets are fewer and move slower, but the changes are subtle.
* The Hyper Meter fills faster than in the original.
* Some bug fixes. The chain meter now has 5 digits, so it no longer rolls over if it reaches 9,999 hits. (In the original version, the chain meter counts internally correct, but displays only lower 4 digits.)
* Both weapons are lowered by only one level upon respawning for all types when in the 2nd loop.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a hybrid ''danmaku-RPG game'' released on December 31st, 2011 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its earliest demos, in addition to a number of updates. The current version, 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters, each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". The game has six difficulty modes; unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's development has been halted multiple times, with the most recent stoppage from March 2022 - with sales halting on April 14th that year for a week - before development resumed on December 12th, 2022.

== Modes ==

The game has 3 distinct modes of play, which are the following:
* Story: Leaning into the RPG aspect the heaviest, Story Mode is for a "power trip" style of gameplay; the player is free to use whatever items and custom abilities they have at their disposal. The character's level has a maximum of 50 in this mode, but can be adjusted with the Level Canceller item (see below).
== Controls ==
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

== Unlockable Secrets ==
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty; various things are locked behind countless conditions.

== Type-C Explanation ==

== Type-S Explanation ==
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming ''invincible'' for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red (negative value) and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift - Virtually identical to Kakusei from ''Espgaluda'', this shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems. Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

=== Overkilling ===
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counterburst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via linearly increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). This phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating post-final boss and rank requirements.

== Routes ==
The game is comprised of 7 areas, of which at least 5 must be played: two out of the first 4, then 5, 6 and 7.
The game's scoreboard assigns Zones to these areas: Zone A is for areas 1 & 2, B for 3 & 4, C for 5, D for 6, and finally E for 7.
For the first 4 areas, the route is chosen by the player as follows:

- At the start of the game either area 1 or 2 may be chosen.
- After every area the player typically advances 2 stages, with some exceptions:
-- Area 5 onward cannot be skipped.
-- After area 1, area 4 can be chosen.
-- After area 2, area 3 can be chosen.
- If the player qualified for a rank up in the last area (see [[#Rank]]):
-- The player is allowed to play the next area, regardless of the previous rule.
-- The rank up is accepted by playing the next area. If there is no other area to choose, the rank up cannot be rejected.

== Rank ==
Orthogonal to the difficulty selection is rank, a value increased during the run that incrementally increases bullet speed and boss health, adds revenge bullets and gives extra phases to some bosses.

Rank starts at 0 and is increased by meeting a hit (type C) or score (type S) threshold during one of the first 4 areas, which will show "QUALIFIED" at the end of the area and force the next one to be playable, which raises rank when accepted, up to a maximum of 4.
The maximum rank in the first 4 areas is "Area Number -1", and the rank up condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank.

=== Type C conditions ===
For type C, rank ups are always based on the number of hits taken during the stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Rank !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
!rowspan="2"|EASY NORMAL
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2

| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦ || Hit ≦ 4
|-
| At max rank || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2
|}

=== Type S conditions ===
If the player is at maximum rank, the conditions are based on total score:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
| EASY || 180,000,000 || 400,000,000 || 650,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| NORMAL || 200,000,000 || 500,000,000 || 800,000,000 || 1,300,000,000
|-
| ARCADE || 220,000,000 || 550,000,000 || 900,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| HARD || 250,000,000 || 600,000,000 || 1,000,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| NIGHTMARE || 200,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| PANDEMONIUM || 150,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|}

If player is not at maximum rank, the condition only depends on the current stage's score and is determined by the current rank, not stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Rank.0 !! Rank.1 !! Rank.2
|-
! EASY
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! NORMAL
| 130,000,000 || 170,000,000 || 200,000,000
|-
! ARCADE
| 160,000,000 || 200,000,000 || 250,000,000
|-
! HARD
| 200,000,000 || 250,000,000 || 300,000,000
|-
! NIGHTMARE
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! PANDEMONIUM
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|}

=== Rank 4-EX ===
If the player takes the 1-2-3-4 route, thus playing all stages, they will be at rank 3 in stage 4. However, not qualifying here will still raise rank to 4 entering stage 5. Instead, qualifying will raise rank to 4-EX, denoted as an orange 4 in the HUD. By exceeding certain stage hit thresholds, this rank can exceptionally be lost, returning to rank 4 for the remainder of the game.

During rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.
Immediately ''before'' reaching the descent doors in stage 7, the game becomes significantly harder and rank 4-EX becomes permanent if obtained prior.

== Last Bosses ==
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses: two False Last Bosses (FLBs) and one True Last Boss (TLB), one of which may appear after the regular stage 7 boss, Core Unit, if certain conditions are met.

For all ranks other than 4-EX, the FLBs may be fought depending on difficulty, rank and total hits, with Elm Order (FLB A) having looser requirements than Vier Dummy (FLB B).
The boss to be faced is locked in at the start of the Core Unit fight, so the player can get hit and even use continues freely after that point, though after Core Unit only 1 continue may be used regardless of how many were previously.

<nowiki>*</nowiki> 2-4 route required to face Elm Order at rank 0

=== TLB ===
The TLB proper, Vier, is and can only be fought on Rank 4-EX, appearing at any hit count. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
She has resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring. Each "link" in a chain has its own timer, so care must be taken to route as efficiently as possible.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Shift (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at the top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies (excluding bosses) defeated in this state explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. This is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullets on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Raidbombing''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

== Practice Mode ==
[[File:StellaVanity_practice_mode.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty.
* '''4:''' Area name.
* '''5:''' Rank.
* '''6:''' Starting position. The default is stage start. You can select every mid boss or area boss.
* '''7:''' Power level.
* '''8:''' Auto guard.
* '''9:''' Start practice.
* '''10:''' Back to previous menu.

Notes:
* Only Story & Rule Mode are usable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
* Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop).
* Rank selection in areas is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from the ''base stats'' of the selected character, and increases them in steps which are highly variable depending on difficulty & character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, ''allows'' for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.
* Certain behaviors of stages cannot be properly replicated, such as suicide bullets from enemies in stage 7.
** Core Unit (the stage 7 boss & final boss) also cannot be fought by itself; due to an inconsistency, its starting position will always be before the stage's final wave of enemies.
* Finer control over extraneous resources (Type-C's Advanced Drive, Type-S' Delayed/Ethereal Shift, etc) and even life & bomb counts cannot be unlocked.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a hybrid ''danmaku-RPG game'' released on December 31st, 2011 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its earliest demos, in addition to a number of updates. The current version, 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters, each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". The game has six difficulty modes; unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's development has been halted multiple times, with the most recent stoppage from March 2022 - with sales halting on April 14th that year for a week - before development resumed on December 12th, 2022.

== Modes ==

The game has 3 distinct modes of play, which are the following:
* Story: Leaning into the RPG aspect the heaviest, Story Mode is for a "power trip" style of gameplay; the player is free to use whatever items and custom abilities they have at their disposal. The character's level has a maximum of 50 in this mode, but can be adjusted with the Level Canceller item (see below).
* Rule: A balance between a traditional arcade
== Controls ==
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

== Unlockable Secrets ==
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty; various things are locked behind countless conditions.

== Type-C Explanation ==

== Type-S Explanation ==
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming ''invincible'' for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red (negative value) and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift - Virtually identical to Kakusei from ''Espgaluda'', this shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems. Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

=== Overkilling ===
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counterburst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via linearly increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). This phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating post-final boss and rank requirements.

== Routes ==
The game is comprised of 7 areas, of which at least 5 must be played: two out of the first 4, then 5, 6 and 7.
The game's scoreboard assigns Zones to these areas: Zone A is for areas 1 & 2, B for 3 & 4, C for 5, D for 6, and finally E for 7.
For the first 4 areas, the route is chosen by the player as follows:

- At the start of the game either area 1 or 2 may be chosen.
- After every area the player typically advances 2 stages, with some exceptions:
-- Area 5 onward cannot be skipped.
-- After area 1, area 4 can be chosen.
-- After area 2, area 3 can be chosen.
- If the player qualified for a rank up in the last area (see [[#Rank]]):
-- The player is allowed to play the next area, regardless of the previous rule.
-- The rank up is accepted by playing the next area. If there is no other area to choose, the rank up cannot be rejected.

|}

== Rank ==
Orthogonal to the difficulty selection is rank, a value increased during the run that incrementally increases bullet speed and boss health, adds revenge bullets and gives extra phases to some bosses.

Rank starts at 0 and is increased by meeting a hit (type C) or score (type S) threshold during one of the first 4 areas, which will show "QUALIFIED" at the end of the area and force the next one to be playable, which raises rank when accepted, up to a maximum of 4.
The maximum rank in the first 4 areas is "Area Number -1", and the rank up condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank.

=== Type C conditions ===
For type C, rank ups are always based on the number of hits taken during the stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Rank !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
!rowspan="2"|EASY NORMAL
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2
|-
| At max rank || Hit≦0 || Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦
|-
!rowspan="2"|ARCADE
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦
|-
| At max rank || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦
|-
!rowspan="2"|HARD
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦
|-
| At max rank || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2
|-
!rowspan="2"|NIGHTMARE PANDEMONIUM
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦ || Hit ≦ 4
|-
| At max rank || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2
|}

=== Type S conditions ===
If the player is at maximum rank, the conditions are based on total score:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
| EASY || 180,000,000 || 400,000,000 || 650,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| NORMAL || 200,000,000 || 500,000,000 || 800,000,000 || 1,300,000,000
|-
| ARCADE || 220,000,000 || 550,000,000 || 900,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| HARD || 250,000,000 || 600,000,000 || 1,000,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| NIGHTMARE || 200,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| PANDEMONIUM || 150,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|}

If player is not at maximum rank, the condition only depends on the current stage's score and is determined by the current rank, not stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Rank.0 !! Rank.1 !! Rank.2
|-
! EASY
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! NORMAL
| 130,000,000 || 170,000,000 || 200,000,000
|-
! ARCADE
| 160,000,000 || 200,000,000 || 250,000,000
|-
! HARD
| 200,000,000 || 250,000,000 || 300,000,000
|-
! NIGHTMARE
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! PANDEMONIUM
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|}

=== Rank 4-EX ===
If the player takes the 1-2-3-4 route, thus playing all stages, they will be at rank 3 in stage 4. However, not qualifying here will still raise rank to 4 entering stage 5. Instead, qualifying will raise rank to 4-EX, denoted as an orange 4 in the HUD. By exceeding certain stage hit thresholds, this rank can exceptionally be lost, returning to rank 4 for the remainder of the game.

During rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.
Immediately ''before'' reaching the descent doors in stage 7, the game becomes significantly harder and rank 4-EX becomes permanent if obtained prior.

== Last Bosses ==
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses: two False Last Bosses (FLBs) and one True Last Boss (TLB), one of which may appear after the regular stage 7 boss, Core Unit, if certain conditions are met.

For all ranks other than 4-EX, the FLBs may be fought depending on difficulty, rank and total hits, with Elm Order (FLB A) having looser requirements than Vier Dummy (FLB B).
The boss to be faced is locked in at the start of the Core Unit fight, so the player can get hit and even use continues freely after that point, though after Core Unit only 1 continue may be used regardless of how many were previously.

=== Type-C conditions ===

<nowiki>*</nowiki> 2-4 route required to face Elm Order at rank 0

=== TLB ===
The TLB proper, Vier, is and can only be fought on Rank 4-EX, appearing at any hit count. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
She has resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring. Each "link" in a chain has its own timer, so care must be taken to route as efficiently as possible.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Shift (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at the top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies (excluding bosses) defeated in this state explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. This is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullets on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Raidbombing''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

== Practice Mode ==
[[File:StellaVanity_practice_mode.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty.
* '''4:''' Area name.
* '''5:''' Rank.
* '''6:''' Starting position. The default is stage start. You can select every mid boss or area boss.
* '''7:''' Power level.
* '''8:''' Auto guard.
* '''9:''' Start practice.
* '''10:''' Back to previous menu.

Notes:
* Only Story & Rule Mode are usable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
* Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop).
* Rank selection in areas is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from the ''base stats'' of the selected character, and increases them in steps which are highly variable depending on difficulty & character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, ''allows'' for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.
* Certain behaviors of stages cannot be properly replicated, such as suicide bullets from enemies in stage 7.
** Core Unit (the stage 7 boss & final boss) also cannot be fought by itself; due to an inconsistency, its starting position will always be before the stage's final wave of enemies.
* Finer control over extraneous resources (Type-C's Advanced Drive, Type-S' Delayed/Ethereal Shift, etc) and even life & bomb counts cannot be unlocked.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a hybrid ''danmaku-RPG game'' released on December 31st, 2011 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its earliest demos, in addition to a number of updates. The current version, 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters, each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". The game has six difficulty modes; unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's development has been halted multiple times, with the most recent stoppage from March 2022 - with sales halting on April 14th that year for a week - before development resumed on December 12th, 2022.

== Controls ==
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

== Unlockable Secrets ==
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty; various things are locked behind countless conditions.

== Type-C Explanation ==

== Type-S Explanation ==
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming ''invincible'' for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red (negative value) and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift - Virtually identical to Kakusei from ''Espgaluda'', this shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems. Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

=== Overkilling ===
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counterburst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via linearly increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). This phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating post-final boss and rank requirements.

== Routes ==
The game is comprised of 7 areas, of which at least 5 must be played: two out of the first 4, then 5, 6 and 7.
The game's scoreboard assigns Zones to these areas: Zone A is for areas 1 & 2, B for 3 & 4, C for 5, D for 6, and finally E for 7.
For the first 4 areas, the route is chosen by the player as follows:

- At the start of the game either area 1 or 2 may be chosen.
- After every area the player typically advances 2 stages, with some exceptions:
-- Area 5 onward cannot be skipped.
-- After area 1, area 4 can be chosen.
-- After area 2, area 3 can be chosen.
- If the player qualified for a rank up in the last area (see [[#Rank]]):
-- The player is allowed to play the next area, regardless of the previous rule.
-- The rank up is accepted by playing the next area. If there is no other area to choose, the rank up cannot be rejected.

|}

== Rank ==
Orthogonal to the difficulty selection is rank, a value increased during the run that incrementally increases bullet speed and boss health, adds revenge bullets and gives extra phases to some bosses.

Rank starts at 0 and is increased by meeting a hit (type C) or score (type S) threshold during one of the first 4 areas, which will show "QUALIFIED" at the end of the area and force the next one to be playable, which raises rank when accepted, up to a maximum of 4.
The maximum rank in the first 4 areas is "Area Number -1", and the rank up condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank.

=== Type C conditions ===
For type C, rank ups are always based on the number of hits taken during the stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Rank !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
!rowspan="2"|EASY NORMAL
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2
|-
| At max rank || Hit≦0 || Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦
|-
!rowspan="2"|ARCADE
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦
|-
| At max rank || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦
|-
!rowspan="2"|HARD

| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦ || Hit ≦ 4
|-
| At max rank || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2
|}

=== Type S conditions ===
If the player is at maximum rank, the conditions are based on total score:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
| EASY || 180,000,000 || 400,000,000 || 650,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| NORMAL || 200,000,000 || 500,000,000 || 800,000,000 || 1,300,000,000
|-
| ARCADE || 220,000,000 || 550,000,000 || 900,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| HARD || 250,000,000 || 600,000,000 || 1,000,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| NIGHTMARE || 200,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| PANDEMONIUM || 150,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|}

If player is not at maximum rank, the condition only depends on the current stage's score and is determined by the current rank, not stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Rank.0 !! Rank.1 !! Rank.2
|-
! EASY
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! NORMAL
| 130,000,000 || 170,000,000 || 200,000,000
|-
! ARCADE
| 160,000,000 || 200,000,000 || 250,000,000
|-
! HARD
| 200,000,000 || 250,000,000 || 300,000,000
|-
! NIGHTMARE
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! PANDEMONIUM
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|}

=== Rank 4-EX ===
If the player takes the 1-2-3-4 route, thus playing all stages, they will be at rank 3 in stage 4. However, not qualifying here will still raise rank to 4 entering stage 5. Instead, qualifying will raise rank to 4-EX, denoted as an orange 4 in the HUD. By exceeding certain stage hit thresholds, this rank can exceptionally be lost, returning to rank 4 for the remainder of the game.

During rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.
Immediately ''before'' reaching the descent doors in stage 7, the game becomes significantly harder and rank 4-EX becomes permanent if obtained prior.

== Last Bosses ==
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses: two False Last Bosses (FLBs) and one True Last Boss (TLB), one of which may appear after the regular stage 7 boss, Core Unit, if certain conditions are met.

For all ranks other than 4-EX, the FLBs may be fought depending on difficulty, rank and total hits, with Elm Order (FLB A) having looser requirements than Vier Dummy (FLB B).
The boss to be faced is locked in at the start of the Core Unit fight, so the player can get hit and even use continues freely after that point, though after Core Unit only 1 continue may be used regardless of how many were previously.

<nowiki>*</nowiki> 2-4 route required to face Elm Order at rank 0

=== TLB ===
The TLB proper, Vier, is and can only be fought on Rank 4-EX, appearing at any hit count. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
She has resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring. Each "link" in a chain has its own timer, so care must be taken to route as efficiently as possible.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Shift (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at the top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies (excluding bosses) defeated in this state explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. This is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullets on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Raidbombing''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

* Rank selection in areas is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from the ''base stats'' of the selected character, and increases them in steps which are highly variable depending on difficulty & character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, ''allows'' for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.
* Certain behaviors of stages cannot be properly replicated, such as suicide bullets from enemies in stage 7.
** Core Unit (the stage 7 boss & final boss) also cannot be fought by itself; due to an inconsistency, its starting position will always be before the stage's final wave of enemies.
* Finer control over extraneous resources (Type-C's Advanced Drive, Type-S' Delayed/Ethereal Shift, etc) and even life & bomb counts cannot be unlocked.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a hybrid ''danmaku-RPG game'' released on December 31st, 2011 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its earliest demos. in addition to a number of updates. The current version, 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters, each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". The game has six difficulty modes; unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's development has been halted multiple times, with the most recent stoppage from March 2022 - with sales halting on April 14th that year for a week - before development resumed on December 12th, 2022.

== Controls ==
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

== Type-C Explanation ==

== Type-S Explanation ==
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming ''invincible'' for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red (negative value) and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift - Virtually identical to Kakusei from ''Espgaluda'', this shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems. Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

=== Overkilling ===
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counterburst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via linearly increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). This phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating post-final boss and rank requirements.

== Routes ==
The game is comprised of 7 areas, of which at least 5 must be played: two out of the first 4, then 5, 6 and 7.
The game's scoreboard assigns Zones to these areas: Zone A is for areas 1 & 2, B for 3 & 4, C for 5, D for 6, and finally E for 7.
For the first 4 areas, the route is chosen by the player as follows:

- At the start of the game either area 1 or 2 may be chosen.
- After every area the player typically advances 2 stages, with some exceptions:
-- Area 5 onward cannot be skipped.
-- After area 1, area 4 can be chosen.
-- After area 2, area 3 can be chosen.
- If the player qualified for a rank up in the last area (see [[#Rank]]):
-- The player is allowed to play the next area, regardless of the previous rule.
-- The rank up is accepted by playing the next area. If there is no other area to choose, the rank up cannot be rejected.

|}

== Rank ==
Orthogonal to the difficulty selection is rank, a value increased during the run that incrementally increases bullet speed and boss health, adds revenge bullets and gives extra phases to some bosses.

Rank starts at 0 and is increased by meeting a hit (type C) or score (type S) threshold during one of the first 4 areas, which will show "QUALIFIED" at the end of the area and force the next one to be playable, which raises rank when accepted, up to a maximum of 4.
The maximum rank in the first 4 areas is "Area Number -1", and the rank up condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank.

=== Type C conditions ===
For type C, rank ups are always based on the number of hits taken during the stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty !! Rank !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
!rowspan="2"|EASY NORMAL
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2
|-
| At max rank || Hit≦0 || Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦
|-
!rowspan="2"|ARCADE
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦
|-
| At max rank || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦
|-
!rowspan="2"|HARD
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit≦0 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦
|-
| At max rank || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2
|-
!rowspan="2"|NIGHTMARE PANDEMONIUM
| Below max rank || rowspan="2"|Hit 1 ≦ || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit 3 ≦ || Hit ≦ 4
|-
| At max rank || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2 || Hit ≦ 2
|}

=== Type S conditions ===
If the player is at maximum rank, the conditions are based on total score:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
| EASY || 180,000,000 || 400,000,000 || 650,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| NORMAL || 200,000,000 || 500,000,000 || 800,000,000 || 1,300,000,000
|-
| ARCADE || 220,000,000 || 550,000,000 || 900,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| HARD || 250,000,000 || 600,000,000 || 1,000,000,000 || 1,500,000,000
|-
| NIGHTMARE || 200,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|-
| PANDEMONIUM || 150,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|}

If player is not at maximum rank, the condition only depends on the current stage's score and is determined by the current rank, not stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Rank.0 !! Rank.1 !! Rank.2
|-
! EASY
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! NORMAL
| 130,000,000 || 170,000,000 || 200,000,000
|-
! ARCADE
| 160,000,000 || 200,000,000 || 250,000,000
|-
! HARD
| 200,000,000 || 250,000,000 || 300,000,000
|-
! NIGHTMARE
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-
! PANDEMONIUM
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|}

=== Rank 4-EX ===
If the player takes the 1-2-3-4 route, thus playing all stages, they will be at rank 3 in stage 4. However, not qualifying here will still raise rank to 4 entering stage 5. Instead, qualifying will raise rank to 4-EX, denoted as an orange 4 in the HUD. By exceeding certain stage hit thresholds, this rank can exceptionally be lost, returning to rank 4 for the remainder of the game.

During rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.
Immediately ''before'' reaching the descent doors in stage 7, the game becomes significantly harder and rank 4-EX becomes permanent if obtained prior.

== Last Bosses ==
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses: two False Last Bosses (FLBs) and one True Last Boss (TLB), one of which may appear after the regular stage 7 boss, Core Unit, if certain conditions are met.

For all ranks other than 4-EX, the FLBs may be fought depending on difficulty, rank and total hits, with Elm Order (FLB A) having looser requirements than Vier Dummy (FLB B).
The boss to be faced is locked in at the start of the Core Unit fight, so the player can get hit and even use continues freely after that point, though after Core Unit only 1 continue may be used regardless of how many were previously.

<nowiki>*</nowiki> 2-4 route required to face Elm Order at rank 0

=== TLB ===
The TLB proper, Vier, is and can only be fought on Rank 4-EX, appearing at any hit count. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
She has resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring. Each "link" in a chain has its own timer, so care must be taken to route as efficiently as possible.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Shift (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at the top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies (excluding bosses) defeated in this state explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. This is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullets on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Raidbombing''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

== Practice Mode ==
[[File:StellaVanity_practice_mode.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty.
* '''4:''' Area name.
* '''5:''' Rank.
* '''6:''' Starting position. The default is stage start. You can select every mid boss or area boss.
* '''7:''' Power level.
* '''8:''' Auto guard.
* '''9:''' Start practice.
* '''10:''' Back to previous menu.

Notes:
* Only Story & Rule Mode are usable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
* Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop).
* Rank selection in areas is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from the ''base stats'' of the selected character, and increases them in steps which are highly variable depending on difficulty & character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, ''allows'' for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.
* Certain behaviors of stages cannot be properly replicated, such as suicide bullets from enemies in stage 7.
** Core Unit (the stage 7 boss & final boss) also cannot be fought by itself; due to an inconsistency, its starting position will always be before the stage's final wave of enemies.
* Finer control over extraneous resources (Type-C's Advanced Drive, Type-S' Delayed/Ethereal Shift, etc) and even life & bomb counts cannot be unlocked.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released on December 31st, 2011 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters, each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development was temporarily halted in March 2022 - with sales halting on April 14th for a week - before resuming in December 2022.

== Controls ==
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

== Unlockable Secrets ==
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

== Type-S Explanation ==
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

=== Overkilling ===
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

== Routes ==
The game is comprised of 7 areas, of which at least 5 must be played: two out of the first 4, then 5, 6 and 7. For the first 4 areas, the route is chosen by the player as follows:

- At the start of the game either area 1 or 2 may be chosen.
- After every area the player typically advances 2 stages, with some exceptions:
-- Area 5 onward cannot be skipped.
-- After area 1, area 4 can be chosen.
-- After area 2, area 3 can be chosen.
- If the player qualified for a rank up in the last area (see [[#Rank]]):
-- The player is allowed to play the next area, regardless of the previous rule.
-- The rank up is accepted by playing the next area. If there is no other area to choose, the rank up cannot be rejected.

== Rank ==
Orthogonal to the difficulty selection is rank, a value increased during the run that incrementally increases bullet speed and boss health, adds revenge bullets and gives extra phases to some bosses.

Rank starts at 0 and is increased by meeting a hit (type C) or score (type S) threshold during one of the first 4 areas, which will show "QUALIFIED" at the end of the area and force the next one to be playable, which raises rank when accepted, up to a maximum of 4.
The maximum rank in the first 4 areas is "Area Number -1", and the rank up condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank.

=== Type C conditions ===
For type C, rank ups are always based on the number of hits taken during the stage:

=== Type S conditions ===
If the player is at maximum rank, the conditions are based on total score:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Area.1 !! Area.2 !! Area.3 !! Area.4
|-
| EASY || 180,000,000 || 400,000,000 || 650,000,000 || 1,000,000,000

| PANDEMONIUM || 150,000,000 || 450,000,000 || 700,000,000 || 1,000,000,000
|}

If player is not at maximum rank, the condition only depends on the current stage's score and is determined by the current rank, not stage:
{| class="wikitable"
! Difficulty Level !! Rank.0 !! Rank.1 !! Rank.2
|-
! EASY
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|-

|-

|-

|-
! NIGHTMARE

|-
! PANDEMONIUM
| 100,000,000 || 120,000,000 || 150,000,000
|}

=== Rank 4-EX ===
If the player takes the 1-2-3-4 route, thus playing all stages, they will be at rank 3 in stage 4. However, not qualifying here will still raise rank to 4 entering stage 5. Instead, qualifying will raise rank to 4-EX, denoted as an orange 4 in the HUD. By exceeding certain stage hit thresholds, this rank can exceptionally be lost, returning to rank 4 for the remainder of the game.

During rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

Immediately before the descent doors open in stage 7, the game becomes significantly harder and rank 4-EX becomes permanent.

== Last Bosses ==
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses: two False Last Bosses (FLBs) and one True Last Boss (TLB), one of which may appear after the regular stage 7 boss, Core Unit, if certain conditions are met.

For all ranks other than 4-EX, the FLBs may be fought depending on difficulty, rank and total hits, with Elm Order (FLB A) having looser requirements than Vier Dummy (FLB B).
The boss is locked in at the start of the Core Unit fight, so the player can get hit and even use continues freely after that point, though after Core Unit only 1 continue may be used.

<nowiki>*</nowiki> 2-4 route required to face Elm Order at rank 0

=== TLB ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX, appearing at any hit count. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
She has resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

== Practice Mode ==

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty.
* '''4:''' Area name.

* Rank selection in areas is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from the base stats of the selected character, and increases them in steps which are highly variable depending on difficulty & character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, allows for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.

}}
'''''DoDonPachi''''' (怒首領蜂 "Angry Leader Bee", abbreviated: '''DDP''') is the second entry in the [[:Category:DonPachi series|''DonPachi'' series]] of [[shooting game|shoot-em-ups]], developed and released by [[CAVE]]. It expanded upon the chaining system innovated in the [[DonPachi|first game]] in the series, and introduced a "variation system" that allowed you to pick two different styles of three ships (Shot and Laser types), giving the player a slightly higher degree of playstyle customization.

This game in particular is considered by most STG enthusiasts to be the grandfather of the ''bullet hell'' sub-genre of shooting games, pushing bullet counts into the '''hundreds''', especially if the player is able to reach the second [[loop]]. ''DoDonPachi'' is also the first game in the series to introduce [[Hibachi]], the [[True Last Boss]], who would return in all future ''DonPachi'' games as a challenge for particularly skilled players.

''DoDonPachi'' was originally released in the arcades in 1997. It was later ported to the PlayStation and Sega Saturn home consoles. There is also a hidden, albeit very lean, port of ''DoDonPachi'' that can be unlocked in the Xbox 360 visual novel, ''Instant Brain''. All three console ports of ''DoDonPachi'' are considered inferior to the PCB / arcade version of the game for various reasons, and are typically not played for score or competitively.

''DoDonPachi'' is followed up by two games, ''[[DoDonPachi II: Bee Storm]]'', developed by IGS, and ''[[DoDonPachi DaiOuJou]]'', the direct sequel developed once again by CAVE.

== Gameplay Overview ==
[[File:DDP_TitleBG.png|right]]''DoDonPachi'' is a three-button shooter (although the '''C''' button is turned '''off''' by default, and can be enabled in the dipswitches in service mode).

There are six stages in the game, with a hidden second loop accessible by achieving certain tasks in-game.

* '''A (Press):''' Fires the standard "spread" Shot weapon
* '''A (Hold):''' Fires the ship's "focus" Laser weapon (also surrounds the player with an Aura that deals extra damage)
* '''B:''' Releases a Bomb, clearing the screen of bullets and dealing massive damage to enemies on screen
** When pressing '''B''' by itself, the player will release a '''Spread Bomb''', which damages everything on screen
** When pressing '''B''' while '''holding A''', the player will release a '''Laser Bomb''', which fires a massive laser blast from the ship that deals extremely high damage to anything in its path
* '''C:''' Auto-fire for the player's standard Shot

'''Ships'''

[[File:DDP_Ships_2x.png|left]]

'''Type-A''': A red jetplane with fast movement that fires a concentrated straight volley of bullets. The most frequently-used ship for scoring.
* -- Fastest movement speed | Narrow Shot width
* -- ('''Shot Type''') Fastest Laser activation speed and damage
* -- ('''Laser Type''') Slowest Laser activation speed
'''Type-B''': A green helicopter equipped with options that rotate their firing direction with the player's movement direction. Recommended for advanced / technical players.
* -- Average movement speed | Adjustable options create unique chain opportunities only possible with this ship
* -- ('''Laser Type''') Fastest Laser activation speed
'''Type-C''': A blue plane that moves slowly, but has the most powerful shot, which fires in a wide spread. Commonly recommended for beginner players due to the weapon strength.
* -- Slowest movement speed | Most powerful Shot, with the biggest horizontal range
* -- ('''Shot Type''') Weakest Laser and slowest Laser activation speed

'''Ship Types'''

* '''Shot Type''': Increases the strength of the player's Shot, dealing more damage and firing greater shot spreads, but with a weaker Laser and slower movement speed when Lasering
* '''Laser Type''': Increases the strength of the player's Laser, movement speed when Lasering, producing a bigger aura, and instantly destroying [[zako]]
** ''All Laser Type ships deal the same amount of damage with the Laser''

'''Hitboxes'''

The hitboxes for the three ships and sub-types are all of the same size. When the player is moving horizontally, the hitbox is gradually shrinking slightly in width. The height stays the same.

* Default position: 6x7 pixel

* Leaning towards one side: 5x7 pixel

* Fully moving horizontally: 4x7 pixel

=== Scoring ===
'''Seeing Stars!'''

There are three types of stars for the player to collect in the game; Ground Stars ('''300pts'''), Small Stars ('''100pts'''), and Large Stars ('''10000pts'''). Stars are also re-calculated into score bonuses at the end of the stage. Ultimately, star collection does not make a significant difference to the player's score, and it's recommended for players aiming for high scores to focus more on '''chaining''' (below).

==== Hit Chaining / Get Point System ====

The central scoring mechanic of ''DoDonPachi'' is the '''Get Point System''' (GPS), returning from ''[[DonPachi]]'', which emphasizes scoring by performing '''hit/kill chains''' upon enemies and the environment, in quick succession. Whereas ''DonPachi'' focused primarily on connecting a bunch of very brief chains for big score gains, ''DoDonPachi'' makes the chaining a little bit more lenient, giving the player more ways to prevent chains from breaking -- pushing the chaining even further by allowing you to '''full-chain''' an entire stage for massive score bonuses -- it is not unrealistic to achieve chains well over 100 HITs with practice and routing. Chain breaks are prevented by '''destroying enemies and objects''', '''training your Laser''' on strong enemies (which now stalls the chain meter and slowly increases your HIT gain), and '''revealing hidden bees''' (see below). This chaining system has been a minor point of contention for some fans of the shmup genre, as it demands '''high levels of skill and perfection''' from the player in order to achieve respectable scores at a high level of play.

The scoring formula of the chain system looks as follows:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| hit count * A '''+''' (hit count - 1) * B '''+''' (hit count - 2) * C '''+''' ... '''+''' 1 * Z
''(whereas A, B, C, ... , Z are the base values of the enemies chained in successive order)''
|}

For example, a '''3 Hit chain''' with the successive enemy base values of (A = 100), (B = 600), and (Z = 300), results in '''1,800pts''' (3*'''100''' + 2*'''600''' + 1*'''300''' = '''1,800''').

If the player were to destroy the same enemies but in a ''different order'', this will also have an effect on the total score gain.
With that in mind, destroying the previous enemies in the order of (A = 600), (B = 300), and (Z = 100) yields '''2,500pts''' total (3*'''600''' + 2*'''300''' + 1*'''100''' = '''2,500'''). For this reason, it is more lucrative to '''destroy enemies with a higher base value''' as '''early''' on in the chain as possible.

==== Boss HIT Calculation ====

The Get Point System functions differently in boss fights in ''DoDonPachi'', removing the GP Meter. Instead, you gain HITs slowly by '''hitting bosses with the Laser''', with the HIT count dropping rapidly when you are not Lasering the boss. Uniquely to ''DoDonPachi'', when the boss reaches red health (you'll hear the VO say "Just a couple more shots!"), firing off a Laser Bomb will rapidly increase the HIT count. In most cases, the Laser Bomb will also destroy the boss.

After destroying the boss, the player is awarded points based off of the following calculations:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| 200,000 + (100,000 * stage number) + hit count * (2,000 + 1,000 * stage number)
''(Note: stage numbers do not count the loop, so 1-1 and 2-1 will have the same stage number.)''
|}

==== MAXIMUM Bomb Bonus ====

Another challenging point of contention for players, the MAXIMUM Bomb Bonus is pretty straightforward -- when you '''collect a Bomb''' icon while your Bombs are already at '''maximum capacity''', the player activates MAXIMUM Mode, awarding them '''220pts''' x (MAXIMUM Multiplier) '''every frame''' (1/60fps); there is one ''very'' rare exception in the Trivia section. The MAXIMUM Bomb multiplier starts at 2, and is '''increased by 1 for every Bomb''' collected while in MAXIMUM Mode, and the score will continue to pour in until the player uses a Bomb, or dies. MAXIMUM multiplier value does not drop on death, so if a player ever exits the mode, they can re-activate it through normal play and their previous score gain will resume. The bomb bonus stops giving players score during boss fights, but will resume score gain upon entering the next stage.

The MAXIMUM Bomb Bonus is critical for high level scoring, particularly if the player is able to carry it to the second loop, where the score gain is very lucrative. A player who is able to get a perfect MAX Bomb Bonus ([[no miss]] / no bomb for the entire game, collecting every Bomb capsule) can earn as much as '''~260,000,000pts''' added to their run.

==== Hidden Bee Items ====

The hidden bee items that premiered in ''DonPachi'' return here, uncovered by '''lasering the spot that the bees are hidden'''. There are '''13''' bees to collect in each stage, and collecting a bee icon awards the player points, with each collected bee in a stage awarding increased point gain:

| 100 | 200 | 400 | 800 | 1000 | 2000 | 4000 | 8000 | 10000 | 20000 | 40000 | 80000 | '''100000''' |

When the '''final bee''' (100000pts) in a stage is collected, the next stage's bee icons will gain increased point value (1-1 1st bee = 100pts -> 1-2 1st bee = 200pts -> 1-3 1st bee = 400pts, etc.), increasing with each '''bee perfect''' until every bee collected is worth '''1,000,000pts'''. If the player dies even once, the collected value of bees is dropped, and returns back to the start of the scoring pattern (100pts). '''Revealing a bee''' will add '''GP meter''' to your chain, helping prevent chain breaks when playing through stages.

If the player is able to collect every single bee throughout both loops, the total point gain is '''37,803,900pts'''.

The following maps show you the '''locations of the 13 bees''' for each of the stages.

<div style='text-align: center;'>''See [[DoDonPachi/Strategy]] for stage maps, enemy and boss descriptions, walkthroughs, and advanced play strategies.''</div>

==== Second Loop ====
Like its predecessor ''DonPachi'', ''DoDonPachi'' features a second loop with more aggressive enemies firing much larger amounts of bullets at a higher frequency. Accessing the second loop is the only way to fight the Last Boss [[Taisabachi]] and the [[True Last Boss]] of the game, [[Hibachi]].

However, unlike ''DonPachi'', the player must meet certain requirements during play in order to access the second loop. To get to the second loop, the player must accomplish any '''one''' of the following four tasks:

* Lose a ship '''two times or less'''
* Achieve one of the following '''maximum HIT counts''':
**270 hits (Type-A)
**300 hits (Type-B)
**330 hits (Type-C)
* Score at least '''50,000,000pts''' by the end of Stage 1-6
* '''Collect all 13 hidden bee icons''' in '''four stages'''

In addition the player must be playing solo to be able to access the second loop.

==== Scoring Tricks ====

* Destroying the large green carrier ships will make them drop more Stars the closer they are to the bottom of the screen. If they are destroyed while on the very bottom of the screen, they will drop a single Large Star instead of many Small Stars.
* '''In Stage 1''': Destroying one of the boss's '''side turrets''' while they're '''rotating around the boss''' and shooting blue needle shots will make the boss drop '''ten Large Stars''' instead of two.
* '''In Stage 2''': Destroying the '''large bunker turret''' before the appearance of the mid-boss will reveal '''a patch of flowers''' in place of the turret. By hovering over these flowers, the player will gain '''10pts every frame''' they are touching the flowers.
* '''In Stage 3''': A significant amount of score can be earned during the second half of the stage, with the teleporting enemies that shoot volleys of pink needles, and the '''large yellow transport ships'''. The yellow transport ships, when destroyed, will '''cancel every enemy bullet on screen''', rewarding the player points for each bullet canceled. The more bullets that are being created by the needle shooters, the greater the point gain. This technique is a great way to get points in Stage 3, especially if the player hasn't developed a chain route for the stage.
* '''In Stage 4''': A '''"destroyed" [[Toaplan]] logo''' on the left side of the screen also contains a hidden '''patch of flowers'''. Hovering near the flowers causes them to bloom, gaining the same '''10pts/frame''' score bonus for hovering over them. These flowers can be hit with the Shot for '''510pts''' each hit, or '''1,100pts every 1/30th''' /second with the player's Laser.

==== Differences on 2P-Side ====

For some reason, many shooting games feature differences in game behavior when the player is playing on the player 2 side rather than the player 1 side (likely the result of programming errors), and ''DoDonPachi'' is not an exception to this. When a credit is being played on the 2P side of the screen, the following changes occur:
* '''(1P)''' When your MAXIMUM Bomb Bonus is active, your '''chain will not drop when using a Laser Bomb'''.
* '''(2P)''' '''Small Stars accumulate over the course of the whole game''', rather than on a per-stage basis. This results in higher than average end-stage bonuses that increase steadily as the game goes on. This makes it possible for the 2P side to score higher than the 1P side (in theory) and puts a slightly greater scoring value on Small Stars.
* '''(2P)''' When using a '''Laser Type''' ship, the '''Stage 2-3''' mid-boss is '''less aggressive''' than it is on 1P.
* '''(2P)''' [[Hibachi]]'s final attack will '''only shoot fast bullets''', regardless of in-game rank.

== Story / Plot ==
( in progress )

== Development History ==
DoDonPachi's development began shortly after the release of its predecessor, [[DonPachi]]. It was the second game developed by Cave; DDP ended up being the favored game over another canceled project, "Danmaku Tengoku";
that game's development was terminated due to unsolvable problems regarding art & sprite design. Another canceled Cave game, "Oni Death", was also worked on in parallel with DDP, but it too ended up being canceled
for unknown reasons despite having a solid concept and graphical design.

Regardless, many mechanics from [[DonPachi]] would make a return as stated prior. The mechanic of suicide bullets, however, was not carried over from [[DonPachi]] for 4 reasons: the pacing of DDP was very important,
so having suicide bullets would force the player to stagger their shooting; second, chaining in the second loop would become too difficult; third, many other arcade games already had them at the time;
and finally Ikeda himself was tired of the mechanic itself and how it impacted gameplay.

In the middle of DDP's development, manga artist Junya Inoue joined Cave and the project. When he joined, the only work left to be done was the ship select, opening demo, last boss, and ending. It was Inoue who
asked IKD "Could I put a colonel or something like that at the end?"; he was given the greenlight for the design and text of the series' villain, Colonel Schwarlitz Longhena. Inoue's general attitude towards
DDP's art was very relaxed, yet directionless; "[...]things like the story and opening weren't seen as very important. So my boss at the time told me, 'It's not that important, so Inoue, you do it.'" He
was lost as to what he should have done, as since most of the art was already complete, he struggled to come up with a story after the fact - something that many years later he still wonders about.

Despite this, "I ended up studying up on DonPachi, and realized it didn't have that deep of a story. Well, now I could relax a little...and with that feeling my work at Cave began." He further elaborates on his
methodology; "[...]I think that for each game you work on you have to take things according to their circumstances, and not be too hung up on particular ideas. I think that in a game's characters and background,
you find the core of the story, and the world of the game flows from there." DonPachi/DoDonPachi had a world and story that - in contrast to many games at the time - were not that intertwined; while Inoue
tried his hardest to create a backstory, "I thought I would never reach something on the level of the Raystorm games. With that being the case, I had a very blasé attitude about it and the result was that I just worked on
things in a very casual way, not taking it too seriously." In light of all of his work, Inoue wishes to not recieve too much credit/respect for DDP; he wants IKD to have that instead, for he was the one that designed
the game's "charismatic bosses". A senior employee at Cave - as told by Inoue - announced that his image for DDP was Space Battleship Yamato. With this in mind, Inoue thought about "refining the story of DDP
to be more like 70s era sci-fi, and the phrase 'shinu ga yoi' just came out naturally. [...] They seemed like phrases that Battleship Yamato villains like Lord Desler or Emperor Zwoda would say."

IKD recalls in an interview for Cave's 15th anniversary, that while Inoue had a small part in DDP's development, he - in his typical fashion - would later be critical of the game's setting; saying "This colorful world of mechas is ridiculous!". This directly influenced the art direction of the next game by Cave - ESP.RA.DE. - as Inoue was assigned as its graphic leader, and wanted a "more realistic" and "inhabited" world for it, in contrast to DDP.

When designing the game's true final boss - Hibachi - Tsuneki Ikeda recalls it conceptually being a test for the limits of human dodging ability, so there wasn't an intended "requirement" for lives/bombs
when a player reaches them; it was more so of "can this be done on one credit?" - this perhaps is the reason why he would later say that a NMNB clear of DDP was "theoretically humanly possible".
The reason for Hibachi's small size, as he says, was for having more space on the screen to create the danmaku patterns (which memory limitations ensured was the only way); its first form,
the Final Demonic Weapon aka "Big Bee" was closer to his original image of a final boss. However, this ended up conflicting with other things he wanted to do, as its size made it impossible to
create truly hellish patterns; thus he chose its patterns over sprite design (which dumbfounded the other graphic designers on the project). During the last portion of the game's development
(the final 2-3 weeks where extensive playtesting and debugging were done), Cave determined that the boss as-is was possible, and so it was left at that difficulty; a difficulty level that as
later revealed was specifically tailored for average people: to make DDP a "user friendly game".

This is a sentiment that IKD would contradict much later; in a 2010 issue of Arcadia magazine he says that "I actually thought [Hibachi] might be impossible", recalling how even the STG lovers
at Cave deemed DDP "WAY too much!" He wanted Hibachi to "give even advanced players a fight that would test their skills to the utmost. [...] if you weren't gritting your teeth to the end
of that fight, it would be meaningless. I wanted people to look at Hibachi and laugh, to be like 'This is ridiculous!'" The idea of Hibachi having a bomb barrier came from a joke him and a senior colleague
at Toaplan used to share: “Hey, wouldn’t it be funny if, when you used a bomb on the last boss, he put up a barrier? Hahaha…” While IKD said at the time that it would be too far,
"[..]secretly I was thinking to myself: this is a great idea. When the time came for DDP, I thought with Hibachi, it's now or never! And it became a basic feature of all our final bosses after that."

After the game's release, Cave would later remark that they were very confident about the game and its demonstration of (at the time) the enduring popularity of STG arcade games. Satoshi Kouyama,
a sub-programmer of the game, remarked that the heart of the game's fun is a "simple joy of dodging bullets"/"that visceral experience of dodging the patterns"; that is, it attracts both superplayers
and everyday players (such as having people swarm its arcade cabinets, which is the first game IKD developed that got that treatment). He says that the opinion of normal players was where
everything was risked - whether or not they would enjoy the bullet dodging - thus, to see that idea understood and praised, pleased Cave. Much later, in 2010, IKD would tell that
"as [DDP] neared completion, I started to think about it more objectively, and worried, 'There's a chance this might be hated by everyone...'" due to the game's sheer bullet count.

This is not to say that superplayers were disregarded; on the contrary, Cave thought that it would take 6 months a player to achieve a 2-ALL (completing both loops):
in reality it took only a month, a fact that shocked Kouyama when he and IKD learned of the news. As said before, the game's playtesting intensified towards the end of development; one
method used was calculating scoring limits by way of using invincibility. They ended up only reaching around 400 million, 200 million lower than the world record at the time in 1997:
600 million points, by ZBL-NAI, using C-S. Another top player of that time, Osada Sennin, remarked to Kouyama that he found the game's difficulty to be "pleasing more than hard",
which came as both a surprise, and a display of how "there was a level above what [Kouyama] thought was the ceiling on a player's skill".

Speaking of 1997, there was another variant of the game being developed for a scoring competition to celebrate the release of the later ill-seen Sega Saturn port;
this was titled "DoDonPachi Campaign Version". For more information about this version, go here.

The editors of Gamest in 1998 remarked of how their love of DDP stemmed from the Get Point System; as it "allows players who are just going for a clear to start gradually and
naturally building scoring into their runs. [...]the chaining in DoDonPachi has been [for many players] their first experience learning and caring about scoring." They add on as to how players
playing for survival would get caught on wanting to optimize for HIT count, and thus were gradually induced into scoring. This was seen as "a revolutionary gameplay system" by said editors,
and was as one editor told "emblematic of what makes DDP such an original, special game to play". IKD and Kouyama spoke about how their playstyles opposed one another - one
was a survivor, the other a scorer; yet in the end "This wonderful system came about because the both of you [...] were able to create a gameplay system that somehow fully satisfied you both"
as summed by a Gamest interviewer. IKD said of how during [[DonPachi]] that a friend of his told him of how "It would be more fun if you could do more chaining", which he agreed with.

The game's lengthy and overall relaxed development allowed Cave, according to IKD, to make the game that they truly wanted. While development typically would end with the want of a few more
additions or polish, DoDonPachi was felt to be a genuinely complete game after development concluded. The triad of difficulty balance, enemy placement, and danmaku patterns
respectively having so much time spent upon them is a large part of why - as IKD believes - DDP succeeded. Kouyama adds that due to much of the basics already having been built
in the preceding game [[DonPachi]] there wasn't much time needed to work on the finer details of gameplay; focus could be directed to the things that they wanted to work on.
IKD was very thankful to have such time, and while he was happy if he could give Cave's next game the same treatment, he "somehow doubt[ed] that will be the case", a sentiment which would turn out to be correct.

Even 13 years later, Ikeda still considers DDP his most memorable and completed game. He stressed that despite the support he recieved in-house, should his attempt at "evolution" have turned out to be a failure it would
have meant "[his] entire 'schema' for games was off" and thus "[He told himself that he] would quit making games and leave the industry". "In that sense", he says, "I feel like DoDonPachi kind of saved me";
"[...]DoDonPachi was a very memorable, positive experience for me."

== Trivia ==
* Despite the variety in bullet visuals, all bullets in ''DoDonPachi'' share the '''same hitbox size'''. This property is also shared with ''[[DoDonPachi DaiOuJou]]'' and ''[[Ketsui: Kizuna Jigoku Tachi]]''.
* This is the first entry in the ''[[DonPachi series]]'' that introduces [[Hibachi]] as the True Last Boss awaiting at the end of the game.
* The MAXIMUM Bomb Bonus can have its bonus value corrupted.
** The first known public mention of the corrupted MAXIMUM Bonus was in December 2016 [https://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?p=1229712#p1229712 by the user "khinra" on the System11 forums]. It couldn't be confirmed at the time but reverse engineering of the DoDonPachi MAME ROM set revealed that the report was most likely legitimate.
** The technical details of the glitch can be viewed [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bcr2Co9MqoE here], however in brief: should enough slowdown be generated prior to a player picking up a bomb item to trigger the MAXIMUM Bomb Bonus, there is a slim chance (estimated to be roughly 1 in 8000) for a vertical blank interrupt to corrupt the MAXIMUM Bonus value held within the game's memory stack (output by a function which converts the value for said Bonus from an unsigned 16-bit integer to binary-coded decimal).

Note 1: Due to a major scoring glitch, the highest scores with and without exploiting said glitch will be listed. For details on this glitch, see [https://www.reddit.com/r/ElectricUnderground/comments/pjccov/website_article_the_double_gp_glitch_of/ this article]. Note 2: A player going by the name T.I has achieved 700 million points with Type B-S in the early 2000s but no picture proof exists of this score.

Note: Due to the detection of an infinite pattern right after the release of the game in Gamest issue February 1993, the Japanese scoreboard only kept track of the highest stage reached, not highest score. Following that, the Japanese scoreboard was closed in Gamest issue April 1994 due to the detection of a kill screen in stage 5-1. Shmups Wiki scoreboard closed after the achievement of the counterstop at 99,999,990.

SMayfield: nice going, me

---ENGLISH---

Nice to meet you here!
My name is Serrara; I'm a 22-year old girl living in the United States.
There really isn't much to say about me other than my love of shumps.

---日本語---

(日本語を勉強しているので翻訳です！)

はじめまして！

私の名前はセララ、アメリカ在住の22歳の女の子です.

そう、私は「ドンパチマフィア」と繋がっているのですが、本当に驚いていますか？

Note: Scoreboard closed in Gamest issue December 1989 due to the achievement of the alleged theoretical max score of 863,000. Scoreboard then reopened in Arcadia issue July 2002 due to newly discovered enemy spawns that were prevented before by the sprite limit. The scoreboard was closed again in Arcadia issue October 2002 due to the achievement of the true theoretical max score of 867,000.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other content from the developer has been frozen as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
On April 14th, 2022 the game was temporarily removed from sale; it was relisted one week later.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

=== Weapons ===
----
This section describes the weapons that you use in the game and elaborates on them further. Stuff like standard shots, focus shots, bombs, weapon pickups that differ in functionality, options, etc. ''This can be omitted if not relevant to the game in question.''

=== Items ===
----
This section describes any and all collectibles that you acquire in the game. An example being any '''Power Up items''' or '''Medals''' from ''[[Battle Garegga|Battle Garegga]]''. Include secret items such as extra lives as well.

=== Rank ===
----
''Type-C conditions: ''
The maximum rank in an area is "Area Number -1", and the condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank. 
The upper row is the condition below maximum rank, and the lower row is the condition at the maximum rank.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

This section details some particular strategic information about the game and its gameplay, such as hidden 1UPs and some basic scoring tricks. For anything particularly deep or highly complex, you can probably leave it in the Strategy page.

''(Currently evaluating whether or not this specific section should even include information outside of the separated Strategy pages. Worth thinking about as a community.)''

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty.
* '''4:''' Area name.
* '''5:''' Rank.
* '''6:''' Starting position. The default is stage start. You can select every mid boss or area boss.

* '''10:''' Back to previous menu.

Notes:
* Only Story & Rule Mode are selectable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
* Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop).
* Rank selection in areas is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from the base stats of the selected character, and increases them in steps which are highly variable depending on difficulty & character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, allows for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other content from the developer has been frozen as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
On April 14th, 2022 the game was temporarily removed from sale; it was relisted one week later.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

This section describes the weapons that you use in the game and elaborates on them further. Stuff like standard shots, focus shots, bombs, weapon pickups that differ in functionality, options, etc. ''This can be omitted if not relevant to the game in question.''

=== Items ===
----
This section describes any and all collectibles that you acquire in the game. An example being any '''Power Up items''' or '''Medals''' from ''[[Battle Garegga|Battle Garegga]]''. Include secret items such as extra lives as well.

=== Rank ===
----
''Type-C conditions: ''
The maximum rank in an area is "Area Number -1", and the condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank. 
The upper row is the condition below maximum rank, and the lower row is the condition at the maximum rank.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

This section details some particular strategic information about the game and its gameplay, such as hidden 1UPs and some basic scoring tricks. For anything particularly deep or highly complex, you can probably leave it in the Strategy page.

''(Currently evaluating whether or not this specific section should even include information outside of the separated Strategy pages. Worth thinking about as a community.)''

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty.
* '''4:''' Area name.
* '''5:''' Rank.

Notes:
* Only Story & Rule Mode are selectable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
* Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop).
* Rank selection is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from the base stats of the selected character, and increases them in steps which are highly variable depending on difficulty & character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, allows for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other content from the developer has been frozen as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
On April 14th, 2022 the game was temporarily removed from sale; it was relisted one week later.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

Notes:
* Only Story & Rule Mode are selectable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
* Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop).
* Rank selection is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from 0% and likely increments to 100% in steps of 20%, scaled with the base stats of the selected character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, allows for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other content from the developer has been frozen as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
On April 14th, 2022 the game was temporarily removed from sale; it was relisted one week later.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

This section details some particular strategic information about the game and its gameplay, such as hidden 1UPs and some basic scoring tricks. For anything particularly deep or highly complex, you can probably leave it in the Strategy page.

''(Currently evaluating whether or not this specific section should even include information outside of the separated Strategy pages. Worth thinking about as a community.)''

== Practice Mode ==
[[File:StellaVanity_practice_mode.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty.
* '''4:''' Area name.
* '''5:''' Rank.
* '''6:''' Starting position. The default is stage start. You can select every mid boss or area boss.
* '''7:''' Power level.
* '''8:''' Auto guard.
* '''9:''' Start practice.
* '''10:''' Back to previous menu.

Notes:
* Only Story & Rule Mode are selectable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
* Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop, for the difficulties Arcade through Pandemonium).
* Rank selection is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
* FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
* Power level starts from 0% and likely increments to 100% in steps of 20%, scaled with the base stats of the selected character.
* Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, allows for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other content from the developer has been frozen as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
On April 14th, 2022 the game was temporarily removed from sale; it was relisted one week later.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

=== Rank ===
----
''Type-C conditions: ''
The maximum rank in an area is "Area Number -1", and the condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank. 
The upper row is the condition below maximum rank, and the lower row is the condition at the maximum rank.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

== Strategy ==
<div style='text-align: center;'>
''See [[(Template Page)/Strategy]] for '''stage maps''', '''enemy and boss descriptions''', '''walkthroughs''', and '''advanced play strategies'''.''

This section details some particular strategic information about the game and its gameplay, such as hidden 1UPs and some basic scoring tricks. For anything particularly deep or highly complex, you can probably leave it in the Strategy page.

''(Currently evaluating whether or not this specific section should even include information outside of the separated Strategy pages. Worth thinking about as a community.)''

== Practice Mode ==
[[File:StellaVanity_practice_mode.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Game mode.
* '''2:''' Character and type.
* '''3:''' Difficulty
* '''4:''' Area name.
* '''5:''' Rank*
* '''6:''' Starting position. The default is stage start. You can select every mid boss or area boss.
* '''7:''' Power level.
* '''8:''' Auto guard.
* '''9:''' Start practice.
* '''10:''' Back to previous menu.

Notes:
- Only Story & Rule Mode are selectable (e.g. '''not''' Strict Rule)
- Practice for areas 1 to 4 are unlocked from the start (areas 5 to 7 must be unlocked via the system shop, for the difficulties Arcade through Pandemonium).
- Rank selection is restricted to ''what is possible in a normal credit'' (e.g. Rank 3 cannot be selected for area 1).
- FLBs and TLB practice must be unlocked.
- Power level starts from 0% and likely increments to 100% in steps of 20%, scaled with the base stats of the selected character.
- Practice Mode, unlike regular attempts, allows for the use of Auto Guard in Nightmare/Pandemonium.

== DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou ==

''DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou'' (怒首領蜂最大往生 "Angry Leader Bee True Death", abbreviated: '''DDP SDOJ''' or just '''SDOJ''') is the seventh game developed in the [[:Category:DonPachi series|''Donpachi'' series]], and the sixth developed by [[CAVE]]. This game was intended to be the final arcade game that CAVE would release. Unlike its predecessor ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu]]'', which had a heavy emphasis on bullet canceling using the "Hyper Counter" mechanic, ''SaiDaiOuJou'' was designed to be mechanically simpler, with more focus on raw bullet dodging. As the name suggests, ''SaiDaiOuJou'' has many mechanical similarities to ''[[DoDonPachi DaiOuJou]]''.

SDOJ saw a "Version 1.5" release on the XBOX 360 in order to fix perceived issues with the scoring mechanics in the original game, as well as a brand new ''Xbox 360 Mode'' with new mechanics and an increased focus on story and characters. The XBOX 360 port also features an option to disable the infamous GP "overflow" bug in the original game, which allows for extremely large point gain in a short amount of time when triggered.

A second arcade release of the game, ''[[DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou exA Label]]'', was announced in 2020 for the ''EXA-Arcadia'' arcade platform. It was released on November 29th, 2020 after a delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic. ''Exa Label'' includes a port of the original arcade release of ''SaiDaiOuJou'', an updated rework of the Xbox 360 port's Xbox 360 Mode (in the form of ''X-Arrange''), a new ''Exa Label'' arrangement featuring gameplay somewhat similar to ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Black Label]]'', and a mode allowing players to immediately challenge the second [[Glossary#True_Last_Boss|true last boss]], Inbachi.

A limited-release mobile game based on ''SaiDaiOuJou'', known as ''DoDonPachi Ichimen-Bancho,'' was also produced. Originally available for iOS, it has since become unavailable to download. Though reusing many assets and mechanics, it is a dramatically different game.

== Gameplay Overview ==

=== Screen Elements ===
-----

==== HUD ====

==== Scrolling ====

=== Controls ===
-----

==== Control Explanation ====
''DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou'' uses three buttons and an 8-direction joystick per Player during gameplay. Each Player also has a Start button that is used to begin the game after coin entry or Continue after a Game Over. No differences are known between playing on 1P side and 2P side (other than the HUD position), so a cabinet can be configured on either side when using a 1-Player control panel without affecting gameplay.
[[File:SDOJ Controls English.png|450px|frame|right|Diagram showing the lever and button configuration used in ''DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou''. A Start button is not shown, but also required.]]

{| class="wikitable" border="0" style="font-weight:bold;"
|-
| Lever
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Movement
|-
| A (Tap)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Fire a brief burst of [[#Shot|Shot]] - a wide, unfocused shot that allows the ship to move at high speed. Tap repeatedly for continuous fire.
|-
| A (Hold)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Fire a focused Laser. Using the [[#Laser|Laser]] slows movement speed, allowing the Player to dodge with more precision.
|-
| rowspan="2" | B
| style="font-weight:normal;" | '''If the Player currently has one or more [[#Hyper|Hypers]] available,''' they will be consumed, and the Player will enter Hyper mode.
|-
| style="font-weight:normal;" | '''If the Player does not have a Hyper available or they are currently in Hyper mode''', a [[#Bomb|Bomb]] will be used. If no Bombs are available, nothing will happen.
|-
| C (Tap)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Fire a single volley of the [[#Shot|Shot]]. This fires fewer bullets than a single tap of the '''A''' button.
|-
| C (Hold)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Full Auto. Continuously fires the [[#Shot|Shot]]. This is effectively the same as repeatedly tapping the '''A''' button, but is performed automatically by the game.
|-
| Start
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Begin the game or Continue after a Game Over.
|}

'''Note:''' If the Player is holding the '''C''' button and then presses and holds the '''A''' button, the ship will transition from firing Main Shot to Laser (in other words, the Laser input 'overrides' the Full Auto input). The Player can continue to hold '''C''' while firing the Laser, and will return to Full Auto fire as soon as the '''A''' button is released. This technique works similarly in other ''Donpachi'' series games, and is important at all levels of play.

</gallery>

=== Weapons ===
-----
Similar to ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu]]'', ''SaiDaiOuJou'' does not feature a power-up system. The Player is always at max shot strength, and never needs to collect power-up items. However, their firepower can still be increased using the [[#Hyper|Hyper]] system.

==== Shot ====
A wide, unfocused rapid fire weapon. For all ship types, the Shot covers more screen area than the Laser, and allows the ship to move at higher speed. The exact spread coverage of the Shot varies based on the [[#Ships|Ship]] and [[#Dress System|Dress System]] type selected.

Of the two main weapons, the Shot does less damage per hit, but has better screen coverage. It is useful for macro dodging situations, clearing out groups of [[Help:Glossary#Zako|zako]], dealing damage to targets that are too far to the side to be hit by the Laser, and similar tasks. Bullets fired by the Shot will stop when they contact an enemy; they do not have any sort of 'piercing' capability. In limited situations (such as when dealing with large groups of zako) it can also be useful for [[Help:Glossary#Point-blank|point-blanking]], but the Laser is generally a superior choice due to the [[#Aura|Aura]] damage. Destroying zako with the Shot is believed to contribute slightly more to the [[#Get Point System|GP Meter]] than damaging them with Laser.

'''Hitting enemies with the Shot does not contribute to or maintain value of the [[#Get Point System|GP Meter]]''' if the enemy is not destroyed.

The Shot will ''not'' uncover [[#Hidden Bees|Hidden Bees]] and allow them to be collected, but firing the Shot over a hidden Bee will cause it to flicker and become partially visible, which can be useful when learning Bee locations.

In some situations where dense bullet patterns are on screen (such as during the Stage 3 and 5 mid-boss and boss fights), using Shot can cause additional slowdown compared to the Laser due to the higher number of projectiles.

==== Laser ====
A narrow, focused Laser. For all ship types, the Laser covers less screen area than the Shot, and reduces the movement speed of the ship while in use. The exact width of the Laser and impact on movement speed varies based on the [[#Ships|Ship]] and [[#Dress System|Dress System]] type selected.

Of the two main weapons, the Laser deals higher damage per hit, but has worse screen coverage. While firing the Laser, the Player's movement speed is temporarily reduced; this can be extremely useful to allow greater precision while dodging. The Laser has a limited ability to 'pierce' through weaker enemies; against [[Help:Glossary#Zako|zako]], the Laser will not be 'pushed back' by contacting their hitboxes. However, against larger and more durable targets, the Laser will be 'pushed back' by the enemy hitbox until it has been destroyed. The Laser is the preferred weapon when [[Help:Glossary#Point-blank|point-blanking]] in most situations due to the extra damage that can be obtained using the [[#Aura|Aura]].

'''Dealing damage to large enemies with the Laser maintains the value of the [[#Get Point System|GP Meter]],''' meaning that the Laser is extremely useful in many situations for maintaining the Chain combo when fighting larger enemies, mid-bosses, and bosses.

The Laser must be used to uncover [[#Hidden Bees|Hidden Bees]], but '''only the tip of the laser will actually uncover the Bee'''. This means that the Player must 'restart' the Laser (by switching from Shot to Laser, pausing continuous Laser fire, or activating a Hyper) or develop a route such that the Laser is 'pushed back' and then re-extends over the Bee's location. When firing the Laser continuously over a Bee that is currently hidden, the Laser '''will not''' cause the Bee to flicker or become partially visible. In other words, the Shot can be used to ''find'' Bees, but the Laser must be used to ''collect'' them.

===== Aura =====
While firing the Laser, a small range around the Player ship will start dealing damage. This effect is visualized by particle effects that wrap around the sides of the Player's ship. The purpose of this ''Aura'' is to prevent the Player from being killed by collision damage against small enemies while using the Laser, but it can be utilized as an offensive tool.

Damage from the Aura contact and the Laser beam itself is additive. Therefore, to maximize damage, point-blanking an enemy with Laser such that the enemy is also inside the Aura radius is a very powerful technique.

There are slight additional particle effects used around the Player Ship when the Aura is contacting an enemy, but unlike in ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu]]'' this effect is very difficult to see.

There is also a form of aura when the player ship has invincibility; this can damage various enemies (usually zako) and kill them, however this aura '''cannot''' kill bosses.

==== Hyper ====

==== Bomb ====

=== Characters / Ships / Styles ===
-----

==== Hitbox ====

The ship's hitbox is 6x6 when using shot or laser, 4x4 on expert.
It shrinks to 4x4 in shot/laser and 2x2 on expert when moving horizontally; the shrunk hitbox is centered on the ship when moving right, but is shifted to the right when moving left due to a bug.

=== Scoring ===
-----
''For world record scores, please refer to the [[STG_Hall_of_Records#Dodonpachi Saidaioujou|Hall of Records entry]]. Note that Japanese World Record authorities, such as JHA and Arcadia, only track runs that reach or defeat one of the [[#True Last Bosses|True Last Bosses]] (Hibachi or Inbachi). Even if a run that does not reach a TLB scores higher, it is not considered valid for scoring purposes.'' 

=== True Last Bosses ===
-----

Similar to previous games in the [[:Category:DonPachi series|''Donpachi'' series]], ''SaiDaiOuJou'' features secret end-game boss fights that can be triggered by meeting certain conditions.

The unlock conditions are shown in the table below. Miss and Bomb requirements are evaluated ''when the Player defeats Kouryuu (the Stage 5 Boss)''. HIT count requirements are evaluated based on the ''maximum HIT count the Player has reached in the entire credit''.<ref>[https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/xbox360/681529-dodonpachi-saidaioujou/faqs/69403 slateman, DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou Guide: Section 5, GameFAQs.com, June 28, 2014]</ref>

== DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou ==

''DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou'' (怒首領蜂最大往生 "Angry Leader Bee True Death", abbreviated: '''DDP SDOJ''' or just '''SDOJ''') is the seventh game developed in the [[:Category:DonPachi series|''Donpachi'' series]], and the sixth developed by [[CAVE]]. This game was intended to be the final arcade game that CAVE would release. Unlike its predecessor ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu]]'', which had a heavy emphasis on bullet canceling using the "Hyper Counter" mechanic, ''SaiDaiOuJou'' was designed to be mechanically simpler, with more focus on raw bullet dodging. As the name suggests, ''SaiDaiOuJou'' has many mechanical similarities to ''[[DoDonPachi DaiOuJou]]''.

SDOJ saw a "Version 1.5" release on the XBOX 360 in order to fix perceived issues with the scoring mechanics in the original game, as well as a brand new ''Xbox 360 Mode'' with new mechanics and an increased focus on story and characters. The XBOX 360 port also features an option to disable the infamous GP "overflow" bug in the original game, which allows for extremely large point gain in a short amount of time when triggered.

A second arcade release of the game, ''[[DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou exA Label]]'', was announced in 2020 for the ''EXA-Arcadia'' arcade platform. It was released on November 29th, 2020 after a delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic. ''Exa Label'' includes a port of the original arcade release of ''SaiDaiOuJou'', an updated rework of the Xbox 360 port's Xbox 360 Mode (in the form of ''X-Arrange''), a new ''Exa Label'' arrangement featuring gameplay somewhat similar to ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Black Label]]'', and a mode allowing players to immediately challenge the second [[Glossary#True_Last_Boss|true last boss]], Inbachi.

A limited-release mobile game based on ''SaiDaiOuJou'', known as ''DoDonPachi Ichimen-Bancho,'' was also produced. Originally available for iOS, it has since become unavailable to download. Though reusing many assets and mechanics, it is a dramatically different game.

== Gameplay Overview ==

=== Screen Elements ===
-----

==== HUD ====

==== Scrolling ====

=== Controls ===
-----

==== Control Explanation ====
''DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou'' uses three buttons and an 8-direction joystick per Player during gameplay. Each Player also has a Start button that is used to begin the game after coin entry or Continue after a Game Over. No differences are known between playing on 1P side and 2P side (other than the HUD position), so a cabinet can be configured on either side when using a 1-Player control panel without affecting gameplay.
[[File:SDOJ Controls English.png|450px|frame|right|Diagram showing the lever and button configuration used in ''DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou''. A Start button is not shown, but also required.]]

{| class="wikitable" border="0" style="font-weight:bold;"
|-
| Lever
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Movement
|-
| A (Tap)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Fire a brief burst of [[#Shot|Shot]] - a wide, unfocused shot that allows the ship to move at high speed. Tap repeatedly for continuous fire.
|-
| A (Hold)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Fire a focused Laser. Using the [[#Laser|Laser]] slows movement speed, allowing the Player to dodge with more precision.
|-
| rowspan="2" | B
| style="font-weight:normal;" | '''If the Player currently has one or more [[#Hyper|Hypers]] available,''' they will be consumed, and the Player will enter Hyper mode.
|-
| style="font-weight:normal;" | '''If the Player does not have a Hyper available or they are currently in Hyper mode''', a [[#Bomb|Bomb]] will be used. If no Bombs are available, nothing will happen.
|-
| C (Tap)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Fire a single volley of the [[#Shot|Shot]]. This fires fewer bullets than a single tap of the '''A''' button.
|-
| C (Hold)
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Full Auto. Continuously fires the [[#Shot|Shot]]. This is effectively the same as repeatedly tapping the '''A''' button, but is performed automatically by the game.
|-
| Start
| style="font-weight:normal;" | Begin the game or Continue after a Game Over.
|}

'''Note:''' If the Player is holding the '''C''' button and then presses and holds the '''A''' button, the ship will transition from firing Main Shot to Laser (in other words, the Laser input 'overrides' the Full Auto input). The Player can continue to hold '''C''' while firing the Laser, and will return to Full Auto fire as soon as the '''A''' button is released. This technique works similarly in other ''Donpachi'' series games, and is important at all levels of play.

</gallery>

=== Weapons ===
-----
Similar to ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu]]'', ''SaiDaiOuJou'' does not feature a power-up system. The Player is always at max shot strength, and never needs to collect power-up items. However, their firepower can still be increased using the [[#Hyper|Hyper]] system.

==== Shot ====
A wide, unfocused rapid fire weapon. For all ship types, the Shot covers more screen area than the Laser, and allows the ship to move at higher speed. The exact spread coverage of the Shot varies based on the [[#Ships|Ship]] and [[#Dress System|Dress System]] type selected.

Of the two main weapons, the Shot does less damage per hit, but has better screen coverage. It is useful for macro dodging situations, clearing out groups of [[Help:Glossary#Zako|zako]], dealing damage to targets that are too far to the side to be hit by the Laser, and similar tasks. Bullets fired by the Shot will stop when they contact an enemy; they do not have any sort of 'piercing' capability. In limited situations (such as when dealing with large groups of zako) it can also be useful for [[Help:Glossary#Point-blank|point-blanking]], but the Laser is generally a superior choice due to the [[#Aura|Aura]] damage. Destroying zako with the Shot is believed to contribute slightly more to the [[#Get Point System|GP Meter]] than damaging them with Laser.

'''Hitting enemies with the Shot does not contribute to or maintain value of the [[#Get Point System|GP Meter]]''' if the enemy is not destroyed.

The Shot will ''not'' uncover [[#Hidden Bees|Hidden Bees]] and allow them to be collected, but firing the Shot over a hidden Bee will cause it to flicker and become partially visible, which can be useful when learning Bee locations.

In some situations where dense bullet patterns are on screen (such as during the Stage 3 and 5 mid-boss and boss fights), using Shot can cause additional slowdown compared to the Laser due to the higher number of projectiles.

==== Laser ====
A narrow, focused Laser. For all ship types, the Laser covers less screen area than the Shot, and reduces the movement speed of the ship while in use. The exact width of the Laser and impact on movement speed varies based on the [[#Ships|Ship]] and [[#Dress System|Dress System]] type selected.

Of the two main weapons, the Laser deals higher damage per hit, but has worse screen coverage. While firing the Laser, the Player's movement speed is temporarily reduced; this can be extremely useful to allow greater precision while dodging. The Laser has a limited ability to 'pierce' through weaker enemies; against [[Help:Glossary#Zako|zako]], the Laser will not be 'pushed back' by contacting their hitboxes. However, against larger and more durable targets, the Laser will be 'pushed back' by the enemy hitbox until it has been destroyed. The Laser is the preferred weapon when [[Help:Glossary#Point-blank|point-blanking]] in most situations due to the extra damage that can be obtained using the [[#Aura|Aura]].

'''Dealing damage to large enemies with the Laser maintains the value of the [[#Get Point System|GP Meter]],''' meaning that the Laser is extremely useful in many situations for maintaining the Chain combo when fighting larger enemies, mid-bosses, and bosses.

The Laser must be used to uncover [[#Hidden Bees|Hidden Bees]], but '''only the tip of the laser will actually uncover the Bee'''. This means that the Player must 'restart' the Laser (by switching from Shot to Laser, pausing continuous Laser fire, or activating a Hyper) or develop a route such that the Laser is 'pushed back' and then re-extends over the Bee's location. When firing the Laser continuously over a Bee that is currently hidden, the Laser '''will not''' cause the Bee to flicker or become partially visible. In other words, the Shot can be used to ''find'' Bees, but the Laser must be used to ''collect'' them.

===== Aura =====
While firing the Laser, a small range around the Player ship will start dealing damage. This effect is visualized by particle effects that wrap around the sides of the Player's ship. The purpose of this ''Aura'' is to prevent the Player from being killed by collision damage against small enemies while using the Laser, but it can be utilized as an offensive tool.

Damage from the Aura contact and the Laser beam itself is additive. Therefore, to maximize damage, point-blanking an enemy with Laser such that the enemy is also inside the Aura radius is a very powerful technique.

There are slight additional particle effects used around the Player Ship when the Aura is contacting an enemy, but unlike in ''[[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu]]'' this effect is very difficult to see.

==== Hyper ====

==== Bomb ====

=== Characters / Ships / Styles ===
-----

==== Hitbox ====

The ship's hitbox is 6x6 when using shot or laser, 4x4 on expert.
It shrinks to 4x4 in shot/laser and 2x2 on expert when moving horizontally; the shrunk hitbox is centered on the ship when moving right, but is shifted to the right when moving left due to a bug.

=== Scoring ===

''For world record scores, please refer to the [[STG_Hall_of_Records#Dodonpachi Saidaioujou|Hall of Records entry]]. Note that Japanese World Record authorities, such as JHA and Arcadia, only track runs that reach or defeat one of the [[#True Last Bosses|True Last Bosses]] (Hibachi or Inbachi). Even if a run that does not reach a TLB scores higher, it is not considered valid for scoring purposes.'' 

=== True Last Bosses ===

Similar to previous games in the [[:Category:DonPachi series|''Donpachi'' series]], ''SaiDaiOuJou'' features secret end-game boss fights that can be triggered by meeting certain conditions.

The unlock conditions are shown in the table below. Miss and Bomb requirements are evaluated ''when the Player defeats Kouryuu (the Stage 5 Boss)''. HIT count requirements are evaluated based on the ''maximum HIT count the Player has reached in the entire credit''.<ref>[https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/xbox360/681529-dodonpachi-saidaioujou/faqs/69403 slateman, DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou Guide: Section 5, GameFAQs.com, June 28, 2014]</ref>

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other content from the developer has been frozen as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
On April 14th, 2022 the game was temporarily removed from sale; it was relisted one week later.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

----

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other STG content from the developer has been '''permanently canceled''' as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
On April 14th, 2022 the game was temporarily removed from sale; it was relisted one week later. Whether or not this relisting is permanent is unknown.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development along with all other STG content from the developer has been '''permanently canceled''' as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.
As of April 14th, 2022 the game can no longer be legally purchased; the length of this delisting is unknown.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

The game's further development (likely including its spinoff, Stellavanity D) has been '''permanently canceled''' as of March 2022, following an incident whose details will not be elaborated upon in this article.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system. This state is known to end when either: a Raid attack completes (including if a Raid would put enemies into the overkill state), or, once Assault attacks cease striking the enemies.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound, the background reddening, and the boss' bottom health bar filling with a gray color instead of a red one). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes, via increasing the velocity of all bullets spawned (with different rates depending on difficulty). The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

=== Weapons ===
----
This section describes the weapons that you use in the game and elaborates on them further. Stuff like standard shots, focus shots, bombs, weapon pickups that differ in functionality, options, etc. ''This can be omitted if not relevant to the game in question.''

=== Rank ===
----
''Type-C conditions: ''
The maximum rank in an area is "Area Number -1", and the condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank. 
The upper row is the condition below maximum rank, and the lower row is the condition at the maximum rank.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

----

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound and the background reddening). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes. The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

=== Weapons ===
----
This section describes the weapons that you use in the game and elaborates on them further. Stuff like standard shots, focus shots, bombs, weapon pickups that differ in functionality, options, etc. ''This can be omitted if not relevant to the game in question.''

=== Items ===
----
This section describes any and all collectibles that you acquire in the game. An example being any '''Power Up items''' or '''Medals''' from ''[[Battle Garegga|Battle Garegga]]''. Include secret items such as extra lives as well.

=== Rank ===
----
''Type-C conditions: ''
The maximum rank in an area is "Area Number -1", and the condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank. 
The upper row is the condition below maximum rank, and the lower row is the condition at the maximum rank.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The TLB proper, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of Stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the FLBs, and requires nearly all of one's resources to defeat.
They have resistances to both Ethereal Shift and Blade/Raid attacks, albeit not to the level of FLB A (Elm Order).

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound and the background reddening). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes. The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== False Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different ending bosses, two False Last Bosses (FLBs), and one True Last Boss (TLB). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for an FLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 ("final") boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The third TLB, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the other TLBs and can only be fought on Rule Mode. Vier appears on story mode after you have beaten her once in rule mode.

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===

[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound and the background reddening). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes. The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== True Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different True Last Bosses (TLBs). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for a TLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The third TLB, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the other TLBs and can only be fought on Rule Mode. Vier appears on story mode after you have beaten her once in rule mode.

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound and the background reddening). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes. The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== True Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different True Last Bosses (TLBs). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for a TLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The third TLB, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the other TLBs and can only be fought on Rule Mode. Vier appears on story mode after you have beaten her once in rule mode.

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

__TOC__

== STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - ==
STELLAVANITY - Prelude to the Destined Calamity - is a "bullet hell RPG" released in 2012 by the developer TRIS-GRAM, under the doujin circle Feathered Ether. The game has undergone significant changes since the release of its demo in addition to a number of updates. The current version 1.23 was released in January 2022. The game features 2 characters each with a easy to learn "C-type" and a complex "S-type". There are six difficulty modes. Unique to the game is the ability to rank up in a run, making patterns harder in addition to suicide bullets.

== Gameplay Overview ==
The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.

=== Controls ===
----
Controls are distinguished by type. Controls can be remapped. This description uses the default keyboard controls.

Type-C Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''X (Tap):''' Discharge
* '''X (Hold):''' Accelerated Hyper
* '''F:''' Slowed movement button

Type-S Controls

* '''Z:''' Fire
* '''Space:''' Bomb
* '''Space (Hold):''' Bomb Hyper
* '''Assault:''' Toggles Assault, double tap to toggle auto-assault. Auto Assault is on by Default
* '''A(Tap):''' Delayed Shift
* '''A(Hold):''' Ethereal Shift
* '''C:''' Blade.

=== Unlockable Secrets ===
----
This game has a shop and multiple final bosses based on rank and difficulty.

=== Type-S Explanation ===
----
[[File:Stellavanity Type-S.png|frameless|637px|center]]

* '''1:''' Delayed Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn blue when ready to use.
* '''2:''' Two gauges integral to scoring. The upper pink gauge is the Counter Shift gauge. When it is enabled, the level of the Counter Shift is shown at the lower right corner of the screen. The lower green gauge is the overkill combo gauge. After an overkill, a number indicating the current overkill bonus will appear next to this gauge. Keep overkilling enemies to add a multiplier to the overkill value. If the gauge empties, the combo will end, signified by the overkill value turning gray.
* '''3:''' Lives
* '''4:''' Bombs
* '''5:''' Ethereal Shift Gauge. Requires at least 50% to activate and will turn yellow when ready to use.
* '''6''' Blade Gauge.
* '''7:''' The character's stats
* '''8+9+10:''' UI addons that display additional information about the run. Not available by default, but can be bought in the shop.

Type-S has a wide variety of tools to both survive and score. Type-S characters retain their normal and focus fire, bombs, bomb conversion and Overdrive from Type-C. Two additional weapons available only in Type-S are Assault and Blade.

Assault is a lock-on laser attack usable on all non-popcorn enemies. Locks are obtained by hitting such enemies with the central part of the character's shot. There is a maximum number of available locks at once, which differs depending on the character. By default, auto-assault is enabled, allowing automatic usage of Assault whenever shot is held down. This can be disabled in favor of manual Assault usage by pressing the Assault button, and re-enabled by double tapping the Assault button in manual mode.

Blade is a short range melee attack. Using it requires spending a portion of the Blade gauge depending on the character. Pressing the button multiple times will trigger a multi-attack Blade combo. The number of possible attacks in the Blade combo (ranging from 1 to 3) depends on the Blade level, which is determined by the amount of Blade gauge available and is viewable at the bottom right corner of the screen. Large enemies and bosses at low health can be targeted for a Raid by pressing the Blade button at the right time, denoted by "RAID OK" appearing at the bottom right corner and a jingle sound playing. Raiding causes the character to swiftly move to the enemy's position, execute a level 3 blade combo regardless of Blade gauge status, and then return to their previous location, all the while becoming invincible for the attack's entire duration. Afterwards, the Blade gauge will turn red and slowly drain, disabling both Blade and Raid until it reaches 0.

Type-S has 2 exclusive "shifts" or hypers. Both shifts disable overkilling upon activation and end overkill combos upon running out, but can be cancelled early by pressing their buttons again, at the cost of half the remaining gauge.

Delayed Shift (kakusei) - This shift spawns more enemies, slows down all bullets on the screen and makes enemies fire more bullets. Killing any enemy during Delayed Shift converts their bullets (other than suicide bullets, if any) into gems.

Entering Delayed Shift also enables a special Counter Shift. During Delayed Shift, all gems collected charge the Counter Shift and increase its level. Higher levels increase the value of future gems collected during that Delayed Shift. When Delayed Shift runs out or is cancelled normally, it releases an energy wave that clears bullets in an area around the player and damages enemies whose bullets were cancelled. Damage and cancel area increases with Counter Shift level, to the point of clearing the entire screen at the maximum level of 3. During boss fights, the Counter Shift slowly charges automatically and will always clear the entire screen of bullets when released. Bombing during Delayed Shift cancels the shift without creating a Counter Shift, but retains the full amount of Delayed Shift meter at the time of cancellation.

Ethereal Shift powers up both Blade and Assault. Assault becomes automatic rapid fire against all enemies and cannot be turned off. The blade gauge will also become infinite, allowing the player to spam Blade combos. However, Raid will be disabled. During Ethereal Shift, a lot more enemies will spawn. These enemies spawn from an independent wave based on how long you've been in Ethereal Shift. Killing these enemies spawns a large number of coins. When Ethereal Shift ends, a large portion of the Blade gauge will be drained. Getting hit during Ethereal Shift ends it early and spends a bomb to prevent life loss if one is available. Getting hit this way will still count as a hit for TLB and rank requirements, however.

==== Overkilling ====
----
Medium and large enemies enter an 'overkilled' state if their HP is reduced to 0 with either Assault or Blade attacks while not in either Shift. During this state, they do not move or fire bullets. Doing further damage to overkilled enemies increases both shift gauges and is central to the scoring system.

The player can also overkill stage bosses if they reduce the current phase's HP to 0 during Ethereal Shift, leading to a special overkill phase (marked by a special sound and the background reddening). During the overkill phase (called a Counter Burst in-game), the boss will use a harder version of the current phase's pattern, which becomes more difficult the longer it goes. The overkill phase continues until the player takes a hit or their Ethereal Shift runs out. There is no long-term survival consequence to taking a hit during this overkill phase, as the player will not lose any bombs or lives. Furthermore, the game does not register this as a hit for calculating TLB and rank requirements.

=== Weapons ===
----
This section describes the weapons that you use in the game and elaborates on them further. Stuff like standard shots, focus shots, bombs, weapon pickups that differ in functionality, options, etc. ''This can be omitted if not relevant to the game in question.''

----
This section describes any and all collectibles that you acquire in the game. An example being any '''Power Up items''' or '''Medals''' from ''[[Battle Garegga|Battle Garegga]]''. Include secret items such as extra lives as well.

=== Rank ===
----
''Type-C conditions: ''
The maximum rank in an area is "Area Number -1", and the condition changes depending if the player currently is at maximum rank or below maximum rank. 
The upper row is the condition below maximum rank, and the lower row is the condition at the maximum rank.

The player starts at rank 0 and can raise it up to rank 4 if the requirements of the above table are met. 
Additionally all levels must be played in ascending order - if a level is skipped, the rank will not increase. 

''Type-S conditions: ''

This table shows the cumulative score required when the player is at maximum rank for that stage. The player still needs to chose the next stage in chronological order to rank up.
IF the player skips a stage please refer to the below table for rank up requirements.

== Rank 4 EX ==

To obtain Rank 4-EX the player must fulfill the conditions for rank 4 as listed above. Rank 4-EX can be obtained for every character and Type. The "Rank 4" at the bottom left of the HUB will turn red if Rank 4-EX is currently active. This is the only Rank that can go down to 4 if the player takes too many hits. Bombs do not count towards hits and therefore can be used freely.
The player is not allowed to
- Take more than 1 hit on stage 5 and 6
- Take more than 3 hits on stage 7 before the double doors open.

During Rank 4-EX, enemy patterns are faster, more suicide bullets are released and these suicide bullets are faster. Boss fights in area 5 and 6 are unaffected.

After the doors open on stage 7 the game becomes significantly harder, Rank 4-EX cannot be lost anymore and the player will fight Vier after stage 7 boss fight.

=== True Last Boss Conditions ===
----
StellaVanity features three different True Last Bosses (TLBs). The tables below outline the hit and rank conditions for a TLB to spawn at the end of the stage 7 boss, Core Unit.

=== Rank 4 EX and Vier ===
The third TLB, Vier, can only be fought on Rank 4-EX at the end of stage 7. Vier is significantly harder than the other TLBs and can only be fought on Rule Mode. Vier appears on story mode after you have beaten her once in rule mode.

----

== Type-S Scoring ==

This section aims to explain the basics of the scoring system for Type-S. Scoring strategies differ between Story Mode and Rule Mode. There are exceptions to tips describe in this section. The most important part of scoring is overkilling enemies which increases all sources of points. There are other aspects of the scoring system which are explained below.

=== Stages ===
----
'''Overkill Chain''': Will likely always be active during a stage. To manipulate this value attack enemies targets by assault and raid large enemies when possible. Taking a hit breaks your chain. All sources of points derive from the value of this chain making setting a high value the most important mechanic of scoring.

'''General Strategy for Stages''': Going from Ethereal Hyper (Collecting Coins) to Delayed Shift (Recharging Ethereal Shift + Cash in cancels).

'''Collecting Coins''': Coins raise the value of gems (cancels) throughout the stage. Coins drop normally when destroying enemies and have an increased rate during Ethereal Shift. At certain thresholds Coins increase the value of Gems (cancelled bullets).

'''Multiplier Gains''': Multiplier gains depends on a variety of factors but in general increases when you destroy enemies with a high overkill chain.

'''Ethereal Shift''': During Ethereal Shift your Blade use is unlimited, if possible, you can stay at that top the screen to destroy enemies as they come. Enemies defeated explode removing bullets in a small radius around them.

'''Delayed Shift''': Destroyed enemies cancel their bullets. Early on in the stage this is primarily used to recharge your Ethereal Shift. Once you’ve reached the White Gem coin threshold Delayed Shift is used to cancel.

'''Counter Shift''': During a delayed shift it is important to charge this up to level 2 – 3 to cancel bullet on the entire screen. Level 2 adds +1 Gem Level to your Cancel, Level 3 adds +2 Gem Level to your cancel.

'''Overkill Bug''': If raiding a large enemies and bombing, the Blade button can be held to stay in place during the bomb animation. Using more than one bomb is possible but not recommended initially. Cashing in with the overkill bug requires a high overkill and a section where Delayed Shift is used to cancel bullets.

===Bosses===
----
'''General Strategy for Boss fights''': Going from Delayed Shift (Cancelling boss patterns) to Ethereal Shift (Activating overkill + raising your overkill chain). Having a high gem values is important.

'''Raid''': All phases should be ended with a raid regardless of whether you have an Ethereal Shift charged up.

'''Delayed Shift''': Should be used at the beginning of the phase to cancel patterns and recharge ethereal shift.

'''Counter Shift''': Counter Shift charges up based on time you’ve spend in Delayed Shift during a boss fight. Counter Shift will always cancel bullets on the entire screen.

'''Ethereal Shift''': Should be used at the end of a phase, if you have it charged up you can raid and hold the Ethereal Shift button. Ethereal Shift will activate during the raid extending the current phase.

'''Overkilling''': Occurs during an Ethereal Shift once the boss HP reaches 0. Continue attacking the boss for more points. Higher points are awards if Blade attacks connect.

Hibachi

2022-01-14T00:56:23Z

SMayfield: Reflecting recent change

== Hibachi ==
[[Hibachi]] (first named such in [[DoDonPachi]], [[DoDonPachi II: Bee Storm]], and [[DoDonPachi DaiOuJou]]; '''Supreme Killing Weapon, Hibachi''' in [[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu|DFK]], also known as '''Element Doll Extra Z-001 "Hina"''' in [[DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou|SDOJ]]) is the [[True Last Boss]] in the ''[[DonPachi series]]'', and is most often represented by a flaming bee that is much smaller than the other bosses in the game. Hibachi is contained within the body of (depending on the game) [[Kouryuu]] or [[Taisabachi]], and destroying that container will free them from their slumber and unleash hell upon the player.

Hibachi's first appearance as a TLB was in ''[[DoDonPachi]]'', as the final challenge for players waiting at the end of the second loop of the game, and has appeared in every ''DonPachi'' game since then, with different requirements in each in order to reach them.

==== [[DoDonPachi]] ====
Hibachi is fought after defeating [[The Final Demonic Weapon]]<ref>http://shmuplations.com/dodonpachi/</ref> (aka Kouryuu/Hachi) in the second loop. In order to access the second loop in question, the player must complete one of the following requirements:

* Lose a ship '''two times or less'''
* Achieve one of the following '''maximum HIT counts''':
**270 hits (Type-A)
**300 hits (Type-B)
**330 hits (Type-C)
*Score at least '''50,000,000pts''' by the end of Stage 1-6
*'''Collect all 13 hidden bee icons''' in '''four stages'''

Once the player has entered the second loop, they only need to reach the end of the game. The player is allowed to use a continue and still encounter Hibachi at the end.

==== [[DoDonPachi II: Bee Storm]] ====
If the player manages to get '''at least 400,000,000 points''' (can be altered in the game's settings) when Stage 6 is cleared, they will be taken to a hidden 7th stage containing Hibachi.
Death, bombs, and continues do not invalidate the requirement.

==== [[DoDonPachi DaiOuJou]] ====
Just like in ''DoDonPachi'', the player will fight Hibachi after defeating [[Kouryuu]] at the end of the second loop. To access the second loop, the player must complete one of the following requirements:

* Lose a ship '''two times or less'''
* Bomb '''three times or less'''
* Collect the '''x2''' bee icon (acquired by collecting all 10 hidden bee icons in a stage) in at least '''three stages without dying''' ''(NOTE: dying at a boss is OK)''
* Finish the first loop with '''350,000,000pts''' ''(White Label only)''

==== [[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu|DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Ver1.0]] ====
In DFK 1.0, the only way to encounter Hibachi in the second loop is to [[No-Miss]] [[No-Bomb]] the first loop of the game. Unlike the previous games, bee collection is not a requirement.

==== [[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu|DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Ver1.5]] ====
In order to face Hibachi in DFK 1.5, you ''must'' enter the '''Ura''' version of the second loop. Otherwise, you will only face [[Taisabachi|Golden Disaster]] upon reaching the end of the second loop.

To reach the Ura loop and fight Hibachi in DFK 1.5:

* Enter the '''Ura "Hidden" route''' through Stage 1, and stay on that route
* Lose a ship '''once''' at most
* Bomb '''two times or less'''
* '''Collect all 45 hidden bee icons'''

==== [[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu|DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Ver1.51]] ====
Ver1.51 of DFK has its Hibachi fight hidden behind Hyper Rank. In order to fight them, you must reach maximum Hyper Rank on two out of the five levels in the game. Deaths, bombs, and bee collection are irrelevant.

==== [[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Black Label]] ====
DFK BL does not contain a second loop, so simply meeting the requirements will allow you to fight Hibachi upon reaching the end of stage 5 and defeating [[Taisabachi|Golden Disaster]].

The requirements are:

* Lose a ship '''one time''' at most
* Bomb '''two times or less'''
* Destroy all bosses in the game with a '''maxed-out RED Gauge'''

Unlike 1.5, it is irrelevant what route you're on; you can play on the Omote route of the game and still reach Hibachi by satisfying the above conditions. Bees are also irrelevant.

==== [[DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou]] ====
Hibachi appears as the TLB in SDOJ after destroying [[Kouryuu]]. You can fight her by accomplishing the following requirements:

* Lose a ship '''once''' at most
* Collect all '''hidden bee icons''' on any '''three stages'''

==== [[DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu Black Label]] -- Zatsuza ====
In ''DFK Black Label'', there is an alternative True Last Boss named '''Zatsuza''', who is functionally a palette swap of Hibachi and doesn't seem to have any backstory or other appearances in the series to date, but brings with them significantly more dangerous and challenging bullet patterns. Zatsuza does not seem to have any sort of plot behind them, and is considered by most to be a non-canon encounter.

To face Zatsuza, the player must accomplish the following:
* Must be playing a '''Strong Style''' ship
* '''[[No-Miss]] the entire game''', including when fighting [[Taisabachi]]
* Use '''two bombs or less''' ''(not including when fighting Taisabachi)''
* Defeat all bosses with '''full RED Gauge''' ''(not including when fighting Taisabachi)''

==== [[DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou]] -- Inbachi ====
A separate entity from Hina aka "Hibachi", "Inbachi" represents "their other side", and appears only in ''[[DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou]]''.
Inbachi is a legendarily difficult boss fight created by Tsuneki Ikeda, with no players to date who have defeated it in a full credit attempt.
They are widely considered to be the '''hardest CAVE boss ever designed''', edging out [[Queen Larsa]] from ''[[Mushihimesama Futari]]'', and even [[Shin Hibachi Kai]] from the [[Death Label]] arrange mode of [[DoDonPachi DaiOuJou]].

To face Inbachi, the player must accomplish the following:
* '''[[No-Miss]] and No-Bomb the entire game'''
** Enabling Auto-Bomb itself does not fail the requirements, however using an autobomb does.
* Collect '''all hidden bee icons''' on all stages
* Reach a '''Hyper Rank''' of '''30''' (Shot & Laser Type) or '''15''' (Expert Type) before Kouryuu dies
* Obtain a '''Maximum Hit Chain''' of at least '''15,000''' (Shot & Laser Type) or '''10,000''' (Expert Type) before Kouryuu dies
** This is not the same as the '''HIT Counter'''; the misconception likely stemmed from these 2 values in high-level play essentially being indistinguishable.

== Trivia ==
* ''DoDonPachi DaiOuJou'' is the first ''DonPachi'' game where Hibachi is given their own TLB theme. In ''DoDonPachi'', Hibachi re-uses the standard boss theme that all bosses use, with the exception of [[The Final Demonic Weapon]], who receives their own theme song. The high-BPM drums and heavily overdriven elements of the theme would find itself to become a staple of the boss fight, with each following game upping the intensity of the TLB theme.
** However, ''DonPachi'' itself a theme for its TLB, Taisabachi. There is also an intermission theme that plays between defeating the last boss, and starting its fight.
* DOJ's Hibachi fight is the only fight in the series that you cannot defeat using continues, as continues aren't allowed once you reach Stage 2-5. This applies to both White Label and Black Label!
** If arrange modes are considered, however, this is not true; as the aforementioned [[Shin Hibachi Kai]] cannot be defeated with continues either. This is because of [[Death Label]] outright removing them.
* In ''DoDonPachi DaiFukkatsu'', Hibachi is shown to have the ability to transform between "ship" and "robot" forms, much like the Element Daughters, alluding to her status as an Element Daughter herself. Hibachi transforms into a humanoid shape more reminiscent of the other Element Daughters when using her final attack.
** In SDOJ, this sequence is inverted: they start as a humanoid, before shifting into a bee.

Nice to meet you here!
My name is Serrara; I'm a 20-year old girl living in the United States.
There really isn't much to say about me other than my love of shumps.
Yes, I have ties to the "Donpachi mafia", are you really surprised?
Unlike them, though...I don't hurt people except if it's necessary.

Currently working on research regarding the game "怒首領蜂最大往生".
