Introduction

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is a fun, cute co-op game in which you control a ship and traverse space saving your animal friends and defeating enemies. There are 5 main stations to the different ships, turrets, shield, Yamato gun, map and engine. All except the map can be powered up by gems you can collect while exploring the map. The 3 gems are beam gem, power gem and metal gem.

This is a co-op game but it only supports local so no online multiplayer.

 

 

Play through

The game is pretty easy and you shouldn't find yourself stuck. This game is meant to be played with a friend but you can still find enjoyment playing solo. In single player you have an AI in which you control which station you want them to man. The AI is intelligent and is capable of holding its own when on their station. Aim is excellent and the maneuvering of the shield is quick. Although the AI can not drive so steering the ship and exploring the map is controlled by you.

 

Multiplayer

There are is one achievement that you cannot do with the AI, First Date in which you must complete a level in two player mode. Have a second controller and start up the tutorial level. There isn't a lot of enemies or danger so you should be fine.

 

Collectibles

The achievement All Creatures Great and Small requires you so save every animal friend. There are 10 animals in each level to rescue. You only need 5 to finish the level but if you stay and explore to find the other 5 it saves you from having to replay the level later.

 

Conclusion

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is a fun short game with pretty easy achievements. There are only 4 campaigns that could be finished in about 10-12 hours.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/105996-lo.jpgClearing the Air 50:gsicon:

Finish a level after removing all fog of war.

 

In the beginning of each level the map is covered in fog. As you explore the level the fog on the map will disappear. Simply finish a level exploring every bit until there is no fog left and the achievement will pop.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/105997-lo.jpg Perfect Date 50:gsicon:

Finish a level without taking damage.

 

This one can be a bit tricky. Load up any level and move slowly. Have the AI manage the shield they are pretty reliable. You can lower the difficultly to causal to make things easier. One of the beginning level works well. Tutorial does not count.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/105998-lo.jpg Cooties 50:gsicon:

Finish a level without crossing paths with your partner.

 

Be mindful of where your partner is at all times. When ordering them to another station wait for them to get there or take another route. The banana split ship puts players on opposite sides and prevents them from controlling certain stations so this ship is helpful. Finish any level to earn the achievement.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106000-lo.jpg Love is all you Need 50:gsicon:

Play through a campaign without using any gems.

You must complete a campaign from beginning to boss battle without putting any gems at any station. You cannot use the ships that come with pre-installed gems or it will not count.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106001-lo.jpg Token of Affection 50:gsicon:

Earn one of each type of ship badge.

As you complete each campaign you are award a ship badge depending on the type of ship you used. Complete a campaign with each of the 3 main ships. The Gumball Zero, Bananas Split and the Jelly Roll to get the achievement. You cannot use the ships that come with pre-installed gems because they have no ship badge associated with them.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106002-lo.jpg All Creatures Great and Small 100:gsicon:

Rescue every captured friend.

There are 100 captured friends throughout the game. Each level (except Boss fights) has 10 friends that could be rescued. You only need 5 in order for the portal to open to the next level. It is recommended you stay and search for the other 5 all at once to avoid having to replay the level. Replaying a level resets friends recused so you cannot go back hoping it remembers the others you saved. No matter what you have to rescue 10 friends each level. Also collecting a lot of friends early helps unlock ship upgrades faster.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106003-lo.jpg Fight with Care, Bear 50:gsicon:

Defeat Ursa Major without taking a punch.

 

The main attack of Ursa Major are punches. Send the AI to man the shields and you should be fine. They are pretty quick at blocking. I recommend you avoid using an all metal shield because it is a lot heavier and slower to maneuver. Two power gems on the shield help since the shield will become longer.

There are times he will push you around the level and you may hit an asteroid taking damage, this does not effect the achievement. All long as he doesn't physically hit you with his fists the achievement will unlock.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106004-lo.jpg Underwater Expedition 50:gsicon:

Defeat Cetus while its head is underwater.

 

Once you get Cetus passed half health he will begin to hide underwater a bit more. Power and beam turrets will not penetrate the surface of the water but metal and metal combo turrets will. So once he is about 1/10 of health trying hitting him while he is underwater. I used two metal gems on the Yamato and timed it to fire right as he is underwater. Send the AI to the shield to help protect you while you are running around and to prevent him from accidently defeating him.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106005-lo.jpg SPF 1000 50:gsicon:

Deliver the final blow to Orion using a solar flare.

 

One of the main mechanics of this boss fight is Orion will encase himself in ice armor. He will also periodically spawn solar flares. In order to break the ice armor you must shoot the solar flares at the right angle so that fireballs hit him, breaking the armor and giving you a chance to cause damage. You must make sure the final blow is from a fireball. So once he is at low health, try ricocheting fireballs to hit him and defeat him.

This is a one of the more difficult achievement since the level requires you to move a lot and hit the right angles so take your time and try to predict his movements to be at the right place in the right time.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106006-lo.jpg Exposed 50:gsicon:

Remove all of King Cepheus's shields.

 

Throughout the level King Cepheus will have a ring of eyes surrounding him. Simply destroy all the eyes before he spawns new ones.

In the beginning of the fight he approaches from the right so have two power gems on the Yamato and you and your partner on the right side of the shop. Since the two power gems on the Yamato create heat-seeking missiles they destroy most of the eyes. You and your partner just destroy the remaining. Once all the eyes have been destroyed leaving him without a shield around him the achievement will unlock.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106007-lo.jpg Seat Warmer 10:gsicon:

Use every station in a single level.

 

Run around the ship and use each station at least once and the achievement will unlock.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106008-lo.jpg Couples Dance Lesson 10:gsicon:

Pirouette 15 times in a single level.

 

You will pirouette with your partner every time you pass through them and they are not moving. Simply stand next to you partner and pass him back and fourth until the achievement unlocks. To do this with the AI, in the beginning of any level do not send him to any station and simply pass him back and fourth.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106009-lo.jpg Generosity 10:gsicon:

Throw a gem into a station that is being used by another player.

 

As a player or AI is at a any station (turret works the best) just throw the gem passed him with :xbut: and the gem should automatically stick in the slot unlocking the achievement.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106010-lo.jpg Gemologist 20:gsicon:

Have 10 unused gems in your ship at one time.

 

Collect presents around the map and leave them on your ship unopened. Once you have collected 10 open all of them and leave them on the floor and the achievement will unlock.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106011-lo.jpg The Spice of Life 20:gsicon:

Use three different types of Yamato weapons in a boss fight.

 

If you level select straight to a boss battle you are given free presents. Save all of them till the beginning of the fight. Fire the Yamato gun once using different gems and combinations on that level. The unpowered up Yamato counts as its own type and you don't even have to hit the boss. You can fire all of them into empty space and it counts.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106012-lo.jpg Rocket Science 20:gsicon:

Escape a white dwarf without shooting or ramming it.

 

White dwarfs have a gravitational pull that are difficult to escape. Powering up the engine with 2 power gems gives you a boost ability. Use all the boosts in succession to escape the gravity.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106013-lo.jpg Warm Embrace 20:gsicon:

Survive after being fully enveloped by a bomb trap.

 

Sometimes after rescuing a friend instead of enemies spawning, a bomb does. The bomb explodes creating a large green radius in which the player must escape.

For the achievement the ship must be fully engulfed in green, from tip to tip and then escape the radius. The bomb does considerable damage so make sure you have close to full health before you try.

Once you are fully engulfed, escape and the bomb dissipates the achievement will unlock.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106014-lo.jpg Entrapment 20:gsicon:

Kill 20 enemies with security guns in a single level.

 

Throughout the game there are small dungeons you must navigate when trying to save your friends. There are turret emplacements that shoot a green laser at anything that passes through them. Once you saved a friend from that dungeon usually a swarm of enemies spawn. Take those enemies and try to run and hide passed the turrets forcing the enemies in their line of sight destroying them. Do this with multiple enemies till the achievement unlocks.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106015-lo.jpg Overprotective 20:gsicon:

Have 20 cells at one time on the Metal-Beam shield.

 

When you combine metal and beam on the shield it produces metallic cell bombs. Cell bombs are created when shot by the enemy. Have an enemies shoot the shield until 20 cells are creates. Do it quickly because the cells do disappear and try not to hit an enemy with the shield because it will destroy them.

 

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3096/106016-lo.jpg Missile Kiss 20:gsicon:

Make two Power-Metal missiles collide.

Power and metal create a guided missile you can control. This achievement can be done easily in the in-between levels hub. Have 2 power-metal turrets and send the AI to one. The AI will continuously shoot straight thus giving you the time to guide the missile in its path unlocking the achievement.

Also for anybody wanting an easy 8 hours completion, I'd recommend playing on easy as below for the most efficient time:

 

Make sure you rescue all the rabbits as you go (very easy, only 1 level is tough)

Campaign 1 - Don't upgrade your ship with any crystals (open 10 but don't equip them)

Campaign 2 - Start attempting some of the misc cheevos

Campaign 3/4 - Use 1 of the 2 unlockable ships for each campaign

Mop up anything that's missing

 

 

An easy way to unlock "Overprotective" is to use 1 of the security guns as it fills the shield really quick.

 

Another easy way for "Rocket Science" is to try to find 2 white dwarfs close together and use the pull of 1 to get you out of the others orbit.
