Welcome to a lovely space time adventure! Probably the most romantic twin stick space shooter quest you will ever depart on. If you are a lonely person don't worry! Your trusty space pet companions will help you out... hopefully. This game is best experienced with someone on the couch and that makes also getting the trophies in this game way easier.

 

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime was released on steam a while back and it got some mixed reviews. It was also showcased at numerous festivals and gaming events. Do remember that the levels in this game is randomly generated sometimes, meaning that no stage will be the same so it's hard to make a specific collectible guide with that. For myself the most enjoyable treat with the game is the stellar soundtrack by Ryan Henwood.

Step 1: Play through the game and collect every space friend you can find (Note: all stages have a collectible tracking system so you know what level you missed friends on) and avoid using any gems at all during the campaign 1. Make sure that you are playing on Casual difficulty as it's way easier, faster and does not disable trophies! (You can play on Easy that is even easier then Casual, however this mode is often slower for acquiring gems and collectibles.) Note: Both accounts that are playing earn trophies at the same time besides specific ones like Seat Warmer. Get familiar with Gems and what they do (See Gem chart). Sometimes you can die just because you switched a gem into something worse!)

 

During this step you will unlock:

Romantic Getaway (B)

Bear-Knuckle Boxing (S)

Wave Goodbye (S)

Belt It Out (S)

Love Has Prevailed (G)

Gemologist (S)

Generosity (B)

Love is All You Need (S)

 

Step 2: Clean up a few in the campaign 1 stage 1 by using stage select. Keep the difficulty settings on casual. I included this step as it's the fastest way to obtain the mentioned below trophies in the game, if you have not obtained them during your first play through that is!

 

During this step you will unlock:

First Date (B)

Space-Man's Best Friend (B)

Clearing the Air (B)

Perfect Date (G)

Cooties (B)

Seat Warmer (B)

Couples Dance Lessons (B)

 

Step 3: Clean up the collectibles and the boss specific trophies by using stage select, again keep the difficulty settings on casual.

 

Do note that Token of Affection Requires you to do the whole campaign, level select disables the trophy.

 

During this step you will unlock: Dressed to the Nines (B)

Token of Affection (S)

All Creatures Great and Small (G)

Fight With Care, Bear (G)

Underwater Expedition (G)

SPF 100 (G)

Exposed (G)

The Spice of Life (B)

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/843.jpg Master of Spacetime (P)

Collect all other trophies.

 

Congratulations love birds you are now a master of space and time!

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/c6c.jpg Romantic Getaway (B)

Finish the tutorial.

 

Story related, cannot be missed.

 

You will get this after the first stage after exiting the portal in the tutorial.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/60a.jpg First Date (B)

Beat any level in two player mode.

 

Story related, cannot be missed. Two player mode Only.

 

Will unlock after campaign 1 stage 1 or any other stage you started playing with a friend. This trophy requires two controllers.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/f45.jpg Space-man's Best Friend (B)

Beat any level with the help of your trusty space-pet.

 

Story related, cannot be missed. Single play only mode.

 

Will unlock after campaign 1 stage 1 or any other stage you decided to be lonely on. You can still do this trophy Online if you like, but that requires one of you to abandon ship.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/886.jpg Bear-Knuckle Boxing (S)

Defeat Ursa Major.

 

Story related, cannot be missed.

 

[spoiler=1] The bear has five attacks first of all is his punch that is relative slow but always seem to aim on your sides from his point of view. He can shoot missiles from his fingers, he can teleport to the opposite side of your ship and lastly he can charge a dash swipe attack that is fast besides the charging. Beware of asteroids.

 

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/8eb.jpg Wave Goodbye (S)

Defeat Cetus.

 

Story related, cannot be missed.

 

[spoiler=2] Cetus is actually a boss fight where it's really easy to die. He only has a few attacks but one of them are deadly. You are stuck on a rotation loop around a water globe so keep in mind that you don't need to do any movement at all (besides avoiding tsunami.)

 

His attacks are as follows: Yellow mines that stay where he places them, Vomit attack that spawns two bubbles and when popped spawn 4 additional baby versions of him. He tries to bite you sometimes. His main attack is a Tsunami that he does by rotating inside his water orb; first a small wave and then a bigger one and if it hits you it will shoot you straight into the asteroid belt. Keep shooting his weak spots that are red and you win!

 

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/002.jpg Belt It Out (S)

Defeat Orion.

 

Story related, cannot be missed.

 

[spoiler=3] Orion is kind of tricky but nothing to much, sometimes you can be really unlucky and get trapped in a circle of suns that will never seem to hit him as the angles seems to be wrong. All I can say is; stay within the circle and the three obstacles. There is no point in driving around in Lonely mode just keep trying and he should go down quickly. To damage him, you need to shoot the solar flares at him by aiming at the sun. It removes his protective layer.

 

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/d5c.jpg Love Has Prevailed (G)

Defeat King Cepheus.

 

Story related, cannot be missed.

 

[spoiler=4] Cepheus is kind of straight forward in any mode. Use your partner for shields and you will almost never get hit by his spikes or orbs. The attack to be cautious about is his plasma orb that he charges up. If you stay in it, it will deal 50% health so you die after his second one, but you can avoid it by using the thruster turret, shoot his red orbs then shoot him. It is really a basic boss fight and one of the easier.

 

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/957.jpg Clearing the Air (B)

Finish a level after removing all fog of war.

 

Can be easily done in campaign 1 stage 1. Just remove the fog of war on the map, and use the navigation system to detect fog. Trophy will unlock when you enter the heart portal.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/517.jpg Perfect Date (G)

Finish a level without taking damage.

 

One of the more difficult trophies in the game and maybe won't come naturally for people. Not taking damage includes colliding with things in space and of course enemy projectiles. I recommend playing with someone for this as it's easier to coordinate rather then to rely on the pet.

 

Play Campaign 1 stage 1 as it's the easiest and just keep trying; you'll get it. (Note: Enemies spawn constantly so you need to find a balance with progression and shooting. Green Warp Gem counts so if it takes damage, no trophy.) If that does not work for you, try the stage Campaign 1 level 3 Wormhole and use the Gumball P as long as you have your pet on the right side and you man the left it should be easy. Put the green core under your turret and the shield on the top.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/25e.jpg Cooties (B)

Finish a level without crossing paths with your partner.

 

This one should most likely be done in campaign 1 stage 1 as it has less enemies and obstacles to deal with. Easiest way to make sure you don't cross paths is that player 2 or pet is put on shield and you take care of the rest. Just don't enter the shield room.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/1dd.jpg Dressed to the Nines (B)

Fill up all gem slots in a fully upgraded ship.

 

(Glitched)

 

This will come naturally as you play the game and is collecting friends, around level 8 and you get a fully upgraded ship (Around campaign three). Simply fill all the gem slots and you get this.

 

Note: Sometimes in two-player mode it doesn't unlock so just replay it in solo if that happens.

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/1c9.jpg Love Is All You Need (S)

Play through a campaign without using any gems.

 

This sounds harder then it is. All you have to do is never use any gems but remember not to pick up any gems as you can by accident use them. I recommend not opening the presents in your ship as a precaution.

 

You should do this on Campaign 1 as it's the easiest.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/78e.jpg Token of Affection (S)

Earn one of each type of ship badge.

 

You get badges by completing campaigns with each of the three individual ships: Gumball, Banana Split and Jelly. The Power up version of Gumball does not count. Also, if you use "Start from level" instead of Start Campaign, you will disable the trophy so no skipping. You have to do all levels in one campaign. Gumball is the classic ship that you start with and it got nothing extra to it. Banana Split divides the ship into two sections: one for player two and one for you besides thrusters and navigation. The layout is a bit different but it's basically Gumball again but with less health. Finally, Jelly that have a coating that prevent collision damage But you spin around constantly while moving.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/1c6.jpg All Creatures Great and Small (G)

Rescue every captured friend.

 

(Collectible)

 

This is a collectible trophy and you must rescue every friend on every stage there is. It should be really easy to do as it can be done on casual mode.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/8f2.jpg Fight With Care, Bear (G)

Defeat Ursa Major without taking a punch.

 

Put your pet on a turret that you've upgraded. Any will do and then put yourself in the shield station. Keep blocking his punches and nothing else and your pet will be able to kill him eventually.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/2e8.jpg Underwater Expedition (G)

Defeat Cetus while its head is underwater.

 

Keep an eye on the mini-map it tells you when he is inside the water.

 

Keep shooting away his body parts until his head cracks open. This is now the tricky part. You have to deal the final blow when it is submerged, however there is something you should keep in mind. A lot of weapons ignore the water. I killed him easily with the Metal + Laser thrusters as the spiked mines ignore terrain. There is a lot of other weapons that do the same. Find one and use it.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/05f.jpg SPF 1000 (G)

Deliver the final blow to Orion using a solar flare.

 

Killing Orion is luck based as it is already but hitting him with a solar flare is not that hard if you are lucky. Bring him down as low as possible and then just keep firing at the sun instead of him. The suns flares needs to kill him. make sure to avoid the legs and icicles.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/06b.jpg Exposed (G)

Remove all of King Cepheus's shields.

 

You need to destroy every red spike ball that circles around his orbit (Yes he is that fat!). Flails and power turrets are good. Something with quick shoot speed is great. Laser turrets can shoot multiple sometimes but they are slower. I had the metal saw blade on my golden turret and destroyed six of them instantly during the spike face when you cannot attack him. (Note: You get is as quickly as they are destroyed. It's easier then the other three last hit requirements.)

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/dcd.jpg Seat Warmer (B)

Use every station in a single level.

 

Simply sit on each battle station in one stage and fire away and it will unlock. Can be done in the tutorial or campaign 1 stage 1.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/9ea.jpg Couples Dance Lessons (B)

Pirouette 15 times in a single level.

 

You do a Pirouette move by running past each other, it's hard to coordinate this with your pet in lonely mode but it's still doable. Do remember that it's in a single level so I recommend doing Campaign 1 stage 1 or the tutorial.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/28b.jpg Generosity (B)

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

 

Simply upgrade a station that you have your partner using at that time, shield seems most reliable. Can be done earliest in campaign 1 stage 1.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/ab9.jpg Gemologist (S)

Have 10 unused gems in your ship at one time.

 

This should come as you do Love Is All You Need. Earliest you will get this on stage 2 after the warp zone. (Note: Presents does not count as gems, but you can save them as presents until you got ten or after Love Is All You Need.)

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/8ce.jpg The Spice of Life (B)

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

 

This is easiest done in campaign 1 against Ursa Major, however you should play a bit more before that stage and collect some gems. I replayed the level before him. When you fire the cannon, just switch the gems in the sockets and wait for it to reload and repeat. Note: You need to have 2 wrenches for this trophy and or three gems in total. (You can get enough Gems from just simply playing the boss stage on Chapter Select. Thanks to BinkUncia for this information.)

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/519.jpg Rocket Science (B)

Escape a white dwarf without shooting or ramming it.

 

This will most likely come naturally as you play, otherwise a good way to escape a dwarf is to use the gravitation of another planet or dwarf against it, so you leave it's orbit naturally.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/3c8.jpg Warm Embrace (B)

Survive after being fully enveloped by a bomb trap.

 

Easy trick to do this is to wait near the exit for the bomb to catch up and let it engulf your whole ship before boosting away from the explosion. You don't actually have to have it running for long. Earliest I got this was campaign 1 stage 2 Note: The whole ship needs to be in the green area.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/766.jpg Entrapment (B)

Kill 20 enemies with security guns in a single level.

 

This can happen at any stage that got security guns; just sit around and wait and let it kill enemies. Remember that it's in a single level. Note: It's really easy to get this during the campaign Orion 3 stage 1 as there is tons of them at that point and cages spawn bad guys.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/b4a.jpg Overprotective (B)

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

 

Metal-Beam shield requires the combination of Laser and Metal in the shield station and cells is what you get from absorbing projectiles. Stack 20 of them on it and you should get this. Note: (Walls and enemies break off pieces and they despawn over time. I did this while standing idle and letting turret walkers shoot at me, preferably black ones as they fire 4 missiles each [one black turret walker is not enough; they despawn faster then they add.])

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/a2c.jpg Missile Kiss (B)

Make two Power-Metal missiles collide.

 

You get Power-Metal missiles by combining Power and Metal gems into the turret stations. Note that you need 4 gems to do this. This trophy also requires you to Not be playing lonely mode as the pet will not aim for your own missiles. (Note: There is a trick to do it solo but Iit's only doable during the warp sections with the two switches. Put your pet on one and it will keep shooting. Simply aim at the pet's missiles or block the switch and you will get it.)

Hey NightRusticDawn, thanks for getting this up so soon. It looks like a great couch co-op game.

 

Just got a quick question: For "Token of Affection" you mentioned "campaigns" (as opposed to a single level select). Does that basically refer to the entire game? Or is the entire story split into multiple campaigns?

 

Thanks for your help.

You only have to play one campaign but you can pick any campaign you want if you feel one is easier then the other. for instance like; Ursa Major - Play Campaign and you do 1. Forest Cluster -> 2. Planetoidia -> 3. Wormhole Outpost -> 4. Cavernous Core -> The Great Bear. And you will receive a badge with the ship you used. If you Single Level Select and skip 1. Forest Cluster then it will disable the trophy (It will disable trophies even if you don't skip anything.) I replayed Ursa Major with each ship type and got the trophy.

 

Thanks for liking the guide and good luck getting the platinum :applause:

Dear author, why did you write that the approximate amount of time to platinum is 20-40 hours whilst you unlocked it in 11 hours?

 

It felt more honest with 20-40 hours as this was my second playthrough of the game, I own it on Steam where I've done 90% of all achievements with a playtime of 27 hours.

 

If you are extremely familiar with the gameplay and the game itself you can do it in less then 20 but for a first playthrough, nah.

Thanks so much for the guide NightRusticDawn! As promised here are some tips for extra additions to some trophy descriptions :D.

 

Spice of Life

 

The easiest way is to start up the boss on the first campaign using chapter select (as at the start it should give you 5 presents automatically), then just open them and leave them so you can pick up the gems and add them to the cannon later. First use the original cannon then add a gem, fire once then add a different gem, rinse and repeat untill you get the trophy (Note: The you don't actually have to HIT the boss you just have to use the women). This means you only have to repeat that one level without having to do the level before, or have so many removers :).

 

Underwater Expedition

 

For this the best strategy is to make sure that you put 2 power gems on your engine, as it can be tricky to get inside the water. This is because the gems give you a boost on the engine which you can use by tapping square once the lights are lit up to get yourself into the center of the water sphere. Once inside use the metal-metal gem combination (to create the saw golden cannon) as it does damage all around the ship ,making it more likely to hit the boss's head. Also to note that guns ONLY fire through the water if they are partially (or fully) submerged themselves, so don't make the mistake of thinking that all your guns don't work if you are just firing on the outside of the water :o.

 

Overprotective

 

The easiest way to get this was to equip the shield metal-beam and then just sit in-front of the security turrets (in its green beam) as this will continually fire at you in a straight line. However its best to do this is more of an open(ish) area, so that you can stay a distance away, and move the shield left to right so that it doesn't get too long on one side and hit the wall/ break off.

 

Also when I did it instead of replaying a whole campaign to get the extra ship badges, the quickest way to do it is to save the animals on your first run (to get the upgrades and then the ship) because if you do, it means that by the final campaign you will definitely have all the ships. So if you just use the ships as you unlock them then you should have it by the end without replaying :).

 

Also apparently there is a difficulty below casual called beginner which does unlock trophies too :D.

 

Great guide though, very useful to have all the gem combinations written down! Also I really loved the game.

 

Hope the tips help people :D.

Sorry for the late response, took some time to write one and also to test things you mentioned.

 

Spice of Life

Yeah you can just do the boss, I did the stage before it as a precaution. Does not matter much actually, the level before it is really easy and with a few extra gems the boss fight itself is even easier, I obtained the no punch on the same go so I guess I multi-tasked a bit more then you probably need to.

Underwater Expedition

As far as I know any combination of weapons work for this trophy, with the exception of Metal+Beam Turrets projectiles as it can't hit throu water. It's an easy boss tactic so the more tips the better :D

 

I think the way this game works though is that almost every trophy can be obtained with whatever gem build you have (Except the specific ones) so it is really forgiving in that sense. I still recommend Casual as the game would be mindless boredom on Beginner, that is hardly any game at all and it would deprive you of the experience. On Beginner the health of bosses is decreased by 25%, less enemies spawn and the stages are smaller sometimes. Also the Gems on Beginner differ from Casual so you are basically not saving time in a full playthrough.

 

I'm glad you had fun with it and thanks for the tips and that you liked the guide, hope it was somewhat useful :p

I followed the guide and had five trophies unlock, can be done either way.

The game is forgiving to say at least, it's an fantastic experience and I recommend playing it on casual, casually first before a clean up.

 

It depends on coordination with your partner and the gems you use.

Nice looking guide in terms of content mate!

 

Just a few issues with formatting, though. Did you use Vy's http://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/guide-central/202570-ultimate-bbcode-trophy-guide-template.html?

 

For example, this:

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/1c9.jpgLove Is All You Needhttp://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/site/icons/trophy_silver.pngPlay through a campaign without using any gems.

 

Needs to look like this:

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/4322/1c9.jpg Love Is All You Need (S)

Play through a campaign without using any gems.

 

It looks much cleaner, plus it has about a quarter of the characters so it gives you more room to play with should you need to make edits and stuff :)

Nice looking guide in terms of content mate!

 

Just a few issues with formatting, though. Did you use Vy's http://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/guide-central/202570-ultimate-bbcode-trophy-guide-template.html?

Oh okay, That makes sense but I've already submitted the guide so I can't make any adjustments as then they can lock it :(

"They" includes me, so consider this your permission :p

 

You can make as many changes as you like to the formatting, it's wholesale changes to the content we don't like people altering, as that's like submitting a WIP guide to get it out there before it's finished. But minor additions to move things around or add feedback/clarification from the community is perfectly fine.

 

Whoever takes on this guide would have to change the formatting themselves or ask you to do it anyway when they sweep it to get it up to the appropriate standard, so they'd probably be grateful if you could do it beforehand :)

Thanks for pointing it out Krid :dance:

Don't worry about it at all, it's really not much of a problem. A guide that needs a little bit of rejigging is far better than no guide at all!

 

If you need any help at all, just give me a shout :)

I hope that looks better now, I can't believe I forgot to change the draft to the template before posting it, I swear that after chem it have been really hard to remember things and I get distracted easily :rolleyes:

 

Thanks again Krid.

Looks 100 times better mate, nice one! :thumbsup:

 

And it's honestly fine, I know you've had a lot on your mind. One of us will be in touch with you in the next week to get this reviewed :)
