Exelica Normal Ending

Complete the game playing as Exelica (Normal Ending).

Play through the game, get a good feel for it, and try to scoop up the no bomb achievement while you are at it. Just keep continuing and you'll get it. Very easy.

Crueltear Normal Ending

Complete the game playing as Crueltear (Normal Ending).

See Exelica normal ending.

Exelica True Ending

Complete the game playing as Exelica (True Ending).

It would seem you need to defeat Faintear on level 1 and level 3 and reach the level 5 boss without using a continue. It seems you won't be penalized for using continues against her. Thanks to Carlylevendits for the info!

Crueltear True Ending

Complete the game playing as Crueltear (True Ending).

See Exelica True Ending piece.

Score 50,000,000

Complete the game with a score of 50,000,000 points.

I've finished stage one and received 15,000,000+ points for my trouble. That was WITH fighting Faintear. I don't think there is really any better strategy than what has been posted so far. To maximize points you need to shoot any target you can't anchor throw. And when there are many enemies on screen you need to anchor throw one into them to maximize your potential bonus points. Don't forget to destroy the bosses with anchor throws when there are many bullets on screen.

Score 100,000,000

Complete the game with a score of 100,000,000 points.

Seriously though, it's more of the same, hard difficulty should yield more points. But I haven't played in hard mode enough to tell. Working on the other achievements so far.

Destroy Faintear (Level 1)

Destroy Faintear in the first level.

You must collect 3000 points (the 2nd number, not the big number) My advice is to not die, it costs you 20-30% of your points when you do. Utilize the anchor to destroy whatever you can on screen before getting to the boss, I had about 2100 points when I reached him.
Grab the last enemy ship before the boss (A brown yellow chopper I believe) and hold onto it until the boss appears, next wait for a respectable amount of bullets to be on the screen before you hurl the ship into it's cockpit. This should kill it if your aim is good. Collect the points on screen and get a nice bonus. It's 2nd form will begin and release small bits that shoot a a large amount of bullets. Grab one of them and once there is a healthy number of bullets on the screen. Hurl them into it's cockpit again. One should kill it, if not. You can easily grab a 2nd and do it again.

Now I believe the 3rd form requires 2300 points at least. (Will get the number down and edit later) Grab one of the 2nd forms bits and use this to kill it when plenty of bullets are on screen. Very easy.

For the 4th form you need 2500 points+ This one is fairly annoying to dodge and it is hard to tell when It's bits are dropped out with everything on screen. Just dodge the shots for a bit and throw your anchor out. You should be able to get one. if not. Just bomb the screen, don't worry, it won't kill the boss and some bits will be left over. Grab them and repeat again with a screen full of bullets.

5th form needs 2800 I believe. If you've managed to get this far you are almost in the clear, this is all good training for the level 3 achievement and the harder ones. 5th form sadly doesn't seem to bring out any bits to throw, hopefully you snagged one of the leftovers from the last fight just like in form 2 and used them. After that just lock on and shoot for the rest of the damage.

If you break 3000 (Took me a few tries) after the boss is destroyed Faintear will appear. Just have at her like usual, don't use any continues because it seems that ruins the achievement.

Destroy Faintear (Level 3)

Destroy Faintear in the third level.

Thanks to SakuraFire for the tips.

Going through the level on Normal without getting hit you should have about 2,000 points, give or take a few. There are six large ships at the end of the level, so make sure you grab the last one. Keep spinning it until you get to the boss. I'm not sure you can 1-hit kill the boss like the others, but that's a good thing. (I've tried 3 times now.) Try to wait until the boss has a lot of shots out and is vertical.

Toss the ship at the Big Boss and you should get one or both of it's wings, gaining you quite a few points. If you wait a bit it will send out smaller ships at you, giving you fodder to throw at it. Grab another ship after you kill it.

The second form doesn't rotate like the last, but is more like a big stationary target. It shoots out a lot of projectiles so watch out and stay near the bottom. Throw the ship you had from the previous form or try to get the last shot when there are a lot of bullets on the screen. I managed to get past this form with over 3k points.

3rd form is tough and has a frontal lazer attack. Make sure to grab the mines and throw it into the cockpit. Don't get hit! You might have to dodge quite a bit for this guy. Get him with over 3100 and Faintear should spawn. (3145 was my lowest number.)

No Miss Clear

Complete the entire game without losing a life.

Still working on this myself, the best strategies have been posted in the forum though. Utilize the anchor, keep an eye on your character more than the enemies, and if you need to. Use bombs to avoid dying.

No Bomb Clear

Complete the entire game without using a bomb.

Fairly easy. Just continue through the game and do not use bombs. You'll beat it then after the credits you'll get the unlock.

Hard Mode 1CC

Complete the entire game at the highest difficulty level and without using a continue.

Is it considered a guide if It's just me telling you to get better at the game to achieve this? There really isn't any trick but to improve your game.

Perfect Play

Destroy all the bosses and complete the entire game without dying at Normal difficulty or higher.

See Hard Mode 1CC. If you can do that. This should be a cake-walk on normal.

	They're ok I suppose.
