Touhou General Thread

I think there's an actual Touhou Rythm game out now.

I'm seeing a lot of videos pop up on youtube of it.

Touhou - Carnival Rhythm seems to be the name of it. I need to hunt it down.

EDIT: Oh, I guess it's been out for awhile. Only seems to have just very recently started gaining traction on youtube.

The artwork is friggen adorable!



Luckily I found a download for it. I shall try this out later 8D

Try this for a change.

Looks fun. Just the right amount of difficult, some good patterns, etc.

But that red-purple interface D:

So hard to look at.

[Chiyuri]

Then.. How about this?

Stage 1 theme song had some really nice piano runs!

Interesting special mechanic, but not sure if I like it much. Its kinda like a mix between Perfect Cherry Blossom and Ten Desires. The loose drops of the yellow items are honestly very distracting from a game where you're supposed to be focused on pretty patterns. The star glittery interface isn't too great either.

Oh boy, look at me, being a hard critic.

Despite what I'm saying about the two games above, do believe me when I say they look quite fun and well made. Especially the second one, has a lot of interesting spellcards. But it doesn't seem to have that impact Zun puts in to his games. The danmafuku games always had a feeling of roughness and unrefinement to it.

I think the SFX have a strong role in why danmafuku games don't feel right. The decibels are way too high. Its much softer in Touhou games.

I've always noted that myself and it kind of bothers me in all honesty. I think I'm going to go watch more Marine Benefit vids now cause I really liked that extra boss theme for that and the unique gear like non spellcards

Especially the graze ticker.

TI TI TI TI TICK TICK TICK TI TI TICK

So loud. So unnecessary.

[Cucurbita]

WOOO cleared this spell



Don't ask me to do it again... it was a fluke :(

Also, Mamizou is now Cirno tier.
