Happy new year, everyone. Hope you all you enjoyed the holidays.



I'm not really "voiced my support for Tao" though, It's more like I'm saying that I'd be nice if we could also get a sneak peek for representatives from TAO, maybe Futo or Seiga like that. I hope they'd release another trial in next reitaisai.

And I don't think I have set my heart to any of the factions since we still don't get the full story behind the 'incident' this time.



I think Kosuzu has the hots for Raymoo. Just look at her in the first chapter, being aggressive and made Reimu blush. As for her story, I want to know where she got all of her daemon books from, especially since she has the Necronomicon. Other than that... she feels kinda bland for now and seems to be geared towards a support role.

Here it is, guys! The demo version of Hopeless Masquerade. Grab it while it's hot, and let's enjoy it together.
Just copy and paste the folder "th135_trial" and run th135.exe then you're good to go.

Kanako/Suwako and Sanae for Shinto are more likely. Marisa doesn't seem to belong to any faction IMO, maybe she's in 'neutral' side.

The requirements are indeed high for a doujin game, but with the new game engine and things it's not really a surprise IMO. Maybe, just maybe it's still not the 'final' requirements since it's still a demo.

Reimu, Marisa, and Ichirin are confirmed to be playable in 13.5 demo



Available stages in the demo are:
Hakurei Temple
Palanquin ship

Now let's wait warmly...

Welcome here, fuwaruu. Good to see that you've already met and became acquainted with some people here.
Enjoy your stay, and feel free to come to discuss or ask about anything related to Touhou here.



F-f-for me? Thank you Haru, dood!



No, Besni, no!

Happy, happy birthday, FoG. Live long and prosper!

Merry Christmas, club!

Looks like you could only declare your spell when your health bar's been fully filled by blue color.
From what I saw in the video, Marisa's health bar was emitting blue light when it was fully filled and she was declaring her spell.
That blue light slowly diminish over time, and then vanished when she finally execute her "Blazing Star". Same with Reimu. I guess that blue light was the 'indicator' for the 'declare' mode duration in the game. Still have to wait for the demo to know if it's true or not though.

The opening might be giving us a hint about the characters who'd be playable in the game I think. I see Reimu, Byakuren, Shou, Unzan, Miko, and Futo on the opening. Anyone else think the same?



IIRC spellcards in IaMP work like this:
- You get to choose them before fight
- Once per round you can 'declare' it in fight when your spellcard bar/meter at the bottom is filled
- The duration of your spell declaration and numbers of the spells you can shoot depend on how filled your spellcard bar/meter was
- After you declared it, you can input the command, like the usual special attack command to shoot the spell.

I guess Hopeless Masquerade's spells feel like IaMP's since as we could see in that video, Marisa didn't use "Blazing Star" immediately after she declared it.



If I read it right from Tasofro's blog, it seems the audience will also be involved in the gameplay, so they aren't just there for the background. Kinda a practical way to cram lots of characters into the game without making them fully playable I'd say.



I thought we'll be getting time till midnight 21st UTC+8? Well, good thing we're all made it this time though.

First submission

.

Fuck wet kiss, do Pineapple salad, go striptease on a live stream, Jenni.



Why did you feel it was not the right way?

As a whole, I don't think Kanako-normal is easier than Kanako-easy. But you're right, some of Kanako's spellcards did feel 'easier' in normal mode. Like "Miracle of Otensui" that I feel is easier to stream along, and "Mountain of Faith" that's also easier to dodge around since the bullets are getting more structured and tidier, so we could easily see the pattern and finding the gap between bullets.

Then I'd like to join, please. And I'll claim Reimu again to represent again this time.

What do you think about this album? This is one of my favorites, and I think it's got a nice blend of all of those three elements.



Told you about dem no graze in MoF, it was like having a plain fries without dip, ketchup or even salt. Lots of bullets and spells from stage 3 and beyond are just... so grazeable, yet we got no graze counter and points.

Was it too late to register myself for normal round now?

I always think their ghost lasers are more troublesome than the note-bullets though.
Yeah, me too. I couldn't think any more suited way for a multiplay in Touhou other than PoFV style.



Yup, the door is mostly good on earth, though the reliability of this door doesn't seem to be really good since it's often went to repair/maintenance or just plain missed the target in the manga IIRC, so Doraemon and Nobita would just walk or fly using take-copter. Don't know how close humans to inventing this device, both IRL and touhouverse.



Give it a chance I'd say, you can start with the manga, then watch the movies. The messages and morals on the series are timeless.



Y-y-you're making me look bad, Jennichang! Ahhn~ sttooopppp. /dol



Here's my submission for this round. 1CC'd it, but didn't took the snapshot after beating Kanako since I sadly died on her non-spell just before her "Miracle of Otensui" card and got my faith points reduced.

I claim Reimu Hakurei to represent me in this event.

Will reply to the others in my next post since it'll be too long.

Hence I said those type of muliplayer would alter touhou's core gameplay much.

Don't forget 3 on 1 matches like the ones against Primsriver sisters or Three Fairies too. They are quite fun when they happen. Mainly because they often have a different patterns depending on your character or route of choice.
I think... PoFV+IN side-by-side play with a single story would end up in a mess. Somehow I just couldn't imagine how it would play, especially the boss battle part. Maybe Touhou or bullet hell in general isn't really suited for a multiple play system.



The similar thing is both can connect from one location to another locations. But, Doraemon's Anywhere Door (Dokodemo Door) has several known limitations like: the door is said to only be able to travel a maximum distance of 100,000 light years, cannot access other dimension, and can only connect to locations that's been recorded in its mapping computer.



Earthlings race here :3

What's up Haru, are you doing well? been into touhou classical arrange lately I see. I've recently been into Jazz arrangements, do you fancy some touhou jazz, Haru?



>doesn't remember guanglai kangyi
DUWANG is ashamed of you!
The girls still suffer some damages though. As we can see in their lose portraits. So spell card battle is still harmful to some degree, but not lethal enough to cause casualties.

You've been manipulated by Jeenni. He's using his black arts.



Ah, I've seen that baywatch video before. I don't think it really counts as a crossover with baywatch, but yeah, that was a close one.

For the multiplayer, it could work by making it limited to just Human and Human team like in Giga Wing or Gradius series.
But yeah, I also think that pure multiplayer story mode in Touhou wouldn't work good. for reasons it would alter the core gameplay of Touhou much and of course I couldn't imagine how the spell card duel will work if it's not a one-on-one duel.



I "get a feeling so complicated" like (u dont need to remember) Guanglai Kangyi EVERY TIME I open it. [size=6]daily reminder that Jotaro is now a meido with funny hat[/h]



"I feel you! I feel you deeply! Your feeling I can feel deeply!"

danmaku, or spell card battle in Touhou should really focus on beautiful bullet patterns and dodging than the usual Dragon Ball like brawls.
Besides, didn't the draft of spell card rules forbid the repeated use of attacks relying on physical strength anyway?

Well said, Zufy! That was really true, especially since every fans came from the same root: Touhou Project.



I'm sure there are still lots of things that haven't been parodied by Touhou fandom. Maybe something like Touhou x Baywatch or Touhou x MacGyver. I don't know if there are any fakkuxTouhou parody, and I hope I wouldn't see any since it'll be scary to see rule ⑨ goes that far.

Online co-op for Touhou games? I think that's a rather interesting idea, I'd like to see if it could be implemented on the future installment, maybe ZUN could start with a multiplayer story mode first...



What about THE POSE and JoJo onomatopoeia?! Do you even POSE?



Do you have anything against that Reimu vs Okuu Dogfight? I thought that was quite good, with all of that itano circus and shiny danmakus. Though I think it'd be more fit if it was shorter since I feel it was kinda dragged out.

That was an awesome find, Haru! Will put the link in the first post, so everyone can also take a look at it.



Ah, you do have a point. Maybe "parodied by Touhou fandom" is the more appropriate wording. Touhou, especially its fandom is really something isn't it? It never cease to amaze me.



There are type 0, type 1, and type 2 in my book, but let's save it for another time.



Thank you for sharing, Zuffy. Will put this one in the first post too.

Yesh, Jennichang is a big fan of Sena, you see. he's always talking about Sena this and that.



Rule ⑨ strikes again! Touhou is really everywhere nowadays isn't it? I think it'd be easier to list things that haven't been parodied by Touhou these days.



This pattern, tsundere type 3 pattern!



Is that so~? Well, there's no more event at this moment, right? So you can safely start again once more. Don't worry, the series really worth it.






Is that so~? Well, for image searching, I think iqdb can also be useful. I've tried searching that Flan image there and the results I got are spot on.
