Divine Sealing (ディヴァインシーリング) is an unlicensed Sega Mega Drive adult vertical shoot-'em-up game developed by Studio Fazzy and published by CYX. Released in Japan in May 1992, the game is most notable for being one of few unlicensed titles to be exclusively developed and published domestically, and for being one of the very earliest unlicensed Mega Drive games ever released.
Divine Sealing is most known today for its involved story, presented between each level in cutscenes featuring hentai artwork (and used to incentive progression with the tease of increasingly adult images.)

Gameplay
Divine Sealing controls much like other vertical shoot-'em-ups: the D-pad is used to control the movement of the Divine, and the button fires its weapons. The game features no form of screen-clearing bombs[1], and the
and
buttons therefore remain unused during gameplay. Additionally, START pauses the game, and the game's story cutscenes can be advanced with the
button.
Gameplay is similar to titles in Hudson Soft's Star Soldier and Compile's Aleste series, focusing primarily on incoming patterns of attacking enemies, and challenging the player to formulate strategies on how to best avoid, defeat, and re-encounter successive waves of both enemies and their projectile attacks.
Scoring
Every 10,000 points upgrades the player's firepower and awards one extra life. Destroying one of the planet's bosses awards 20,000 points and also one extra life, but the Divine retains its current level of firepower.[1]
