These ''two sections above'' only need to be included if the game in question has vastly different routes between '''playing for score''' and '''playing for survival'''. If there is not a major difference in routing, then scoring and survival strategies will just be included in the stage/checkpoint that it refers to.

== Weapon Tier List ==
This is a section that doesn't necessarily need to be included, depending on the game in question. This section should be used to list out all strengths and weaknesses with the weapons in the game, and to sort of evaluate their general strength and usefulness. Ideally, every weapon should include a positive <span style="color:#009449">'''( + )'''</span> and a negative <span style="color:#F53D65">'''( - )'''</span>.

----
'''(X) Tier: <span style="color:blue">Weapon Name</span>'''
----
* <span style="color:#1C7BFD">'''( ~ )'''</span> Unique element of the weapon, nothing necessarily "better" or "worse" than any other weapon
* <span style="color:#009449">'''( + )'''</span> A positive aspect of the weapon that it does well, such as high damage, high refire, homing, etc.
* <span style="color:#F53D65">'''( - )'''</span> A negative aspect of the weapon, such as poor refire, low damage, weak homing, and the like.

----
== Basic Strategy ==
* Include some good "starter advice" for a player interested in playing this game.
* It's probably not a bad idea to explain good "times" to take advantage of certain mechanics (such as, "leave lots of bullets on screen and then do a big cancel for big points").
* Let the player know of some techniques in shmups that the player might have to apply, such as macro-dodging / micro/tap-dodging, how to maximize damage, etc.
----
== Advanced Strategy ==
* This section would contain particularly advanced gameplay techniques and more scoring information.
* Ideally, this is information that you probably wouldn't tell someone who just picked up the game. Players looking at this section are typically aiming to reach the next level of play.
----
== Enemy Overview ==
In this section, detailed information (if available) about all enemies, mid-bosses and bosses would be included on this page. Each enemy would be accompanied with a graphic, a score value (if available), and description of its behavior. For bonus points, include some clickable diagrams that showcase the behavior of the enemy! ''<small>For games that have disassemblies and debug modes available, this would potentially be an interesting way to isolate enemy behavior and really show how it works!</small>''

== Individual Stage Breakdown ==

	== Individual Stage Breakdown ==		== Individual Stage Breakdown ==
		+
		+	There are 7 stages (+ Prologue tutorial) in Sine Mora, with each of the stages comprising of an A and B timeline. Surprisingly (at least during the Story mode) the stages often include missions from a different stage, therefore mixing timelines as well as stages at the same time (e.g. Stage III comprising of III.A and IV.B). Even more surprisingly, it somehow remains coherent.
		+
		+	During the Story mode they are organised into chapters, which are included in this list, where they are mentioned in the game.
		+
		+	=== Prologue (tutorial) ===
		+
		+	Simple affair. Tutorial stage that happens above ''Mirage Mountain'' that explains the mechanics and controls. Does provide background story for the main story though.
		+
		+	In the middle of the stage the player can choose between two routes:
		+	* for novice pilots – you continue flying through the open air and meet shielded ships that shoot spreading bullet patterns you need to weave through. The ''Speed Up'' capsule helps here a lot, but may not be required.
		+	* for advanced pilots – you navigate through the innards of a massive ship, flying through tight winding trenches. Using the ''Speed Up'' capsule at right times is essential for survival.
		+
		+	Is Story mode you are an unnamed pilot flying a ''GE-22 Liberator'', with ''Seeker Missiles'' equipped as the sub-weapon. The time this takes place in is circle 1317, quarter 2, 22:337:95 IN.
		+
		+	=== Chapter I ===
		+
		+	==== Moneta Point (Stage I) ====
		+
		+	===== Near Moneta Point (Stage I.A) =====
		+
		+	The boss of this stage is the ''Sentinel Hexapus, '''Kolobok'''''.
		+
		+	In Story mode you are ''Lynthe Ytoo'', piloting a yellow ''Merenstein VI'' with ''Zebaoth Driller'' equipped as the sub-weapon. The time this takes place in is circle 102, quarter 3, 15:12:15 ET.
		+
		+	===== Bokumono Undersea Prison Facility (Stage II.B) =====
		+
		+	The boss here is the ''Warder Submarine, '''Acridoidea'''''.
		+
		+	In Story mode you are ''Ronotra Koss'', piloting a ''GE-22 Liberator'' with ''Punk Spirit'' equipped as the sub-weapon. The time this takes place is circle 1380, quarter 2, 5:255:8 IN.
		+
		+	==== Bokumono (Stage II) ====
		+
		+	===== Bokumono Perimieter (Stage II.A) =====
		+
		+	The first boss here is the ''Mega Battleship, '''Scylla''''', and the second the ''Perimeter Watchtower, '''Melkor'''''.
		+
		+	In Story mode you are ''Myryan Magusa'', piloting a ''GE-22 Liberator'' with ''Gemini Drone'' equipped as the sub-weapon. The time this take place is circle 1380, quarter 2, 5:254:96 IN.

		+
		+	==== AiBorg Factory (Stage III) ====
		+
		+	===== Losei Imperial AiBorg Factory (Stage III.A) =====
		+
		+	This stage features a very tough section where you need to stealthily and safely navigate through a tunnel where materials get propelled through. The main problem is staying hidden in the debris not to trigger the lasers, while also not crashing into walls. And through all of that you need to battle with the wind. Use on analogue sticks instead of a D-pad is very preferable here. ''Speed Up'' capsule helps a lot, but the section can be done also without it.
		+
		+	The boss here is the ''Alloy Selector Spider, '''Tsuchigumo'''''.
