  Yeah, the biggest issue with this game is presentation. Really could use some work to refine the graphics and playability.

  Glitch time~
  
  I played all for around 30 seconds and on the second HP bar my character was able to magically have their shots at the top of the screen while the character was at the bottom.
  
  It's small but...lol

  I played it again.
  
  It was a lot more fun when it worked.

  Is it broke now?
  
  Also, I'm a programmer, not an artist, there's only so much I can do and ya the shots can get a bit messed up due to how it tries to move towards the movie clip after it's fired.
  
  Also I did this in Flash CS3 (Actionscript 3.0) by scratch.
  
  Also to add,
  
  I shall work on centering the sprites and making them 75% transparent as you pointed out but the sprites I have is due to my artist Benier and this is what he came up with. I can't do art myself so I have to rely on others so unfortunately in terms of presentation, there is not much I can do in that department.

  No, it was broke before and I kept getting teleported to some strange place that I'm afraid of.

  This is so awesome. I like Mabinogi about as much as I like SHMUPs.
  
  This will ease the pain of feeding my spirit weapon. Thank you +REP

  NOOO I DIED ON THE MOST HORRIBLE EVIL VILLAIN EXTRA STAGE BOSS EVER Q~Q
  
  
  Also, when you die, some spellcards seem to stop shooting bullets altogether. xD
  It makes it so you can't die twice on the same spell, but somehow I feel like it's not supposed to happen.
  
  I still wish everything was bigger and easier to see, but so far this is really fun and funny!
  
  DAAAAAAANG Stewarts last spell xD
  
  If my darn keyboard didn't mess up and register the arrow keys as being pressed longer than they actually were I coulda captured it! T_T

  Okay made a few more tweaks!
  
  The hitbox should be "centered" now. It's more visual than anything. Hitbox is in the same spot it's always been. I just centered the sprite around the hitbox better.
  
  I also made the players bullets 75% transparent so that addresses 2 of silentselene's concerns I hope.
  
  Anyways could you be more specific on which spells is having the issue of death and then nothing else? Could be how I'm dealing with the timer and how dying or bombing is resetting it...just need to know which spells so I can look into it more.
  
  LOL! Okay that explains that issue. I added code that removed all of the Danmaku when you died...thing is...some Danmaku shouldn't be removed like the Helpers or some lazers.
  
  Okay Xiyamae I see what you meant lol, I fixed that issue and Iyasenu I believe I fixed the issue with the spells not shooting anything out after dying.
  
  This is what I get for trying to do quick bandaids...I end up producing more bugs in the process...in other words...I'm pulling a Nexon! LOL

  Will probably disappear soon...

  Haha, you suck. I beat you. XD
  but yea, teleporting bosses was annoying. so was shots blending with backround.

  QQ I HEAR YOU THERE
  
  Anyways, liking all the changes you've made. Still a few minor things I feel nitpicky about but the rest is graphical.
  
  I'd toss in the SFX and Music option to the pause menu instead of the right hand corner though.

  That was fun for my first time playing Touhou.
  Except I died the second Pierrick made the circles follow your movement, I kept moving forward at a steady pace to dodge the horizontal objects but ended up getting too close to the top of the screen.

  I didn't like it.

  Well the teleporting I can fix later...I would just have to put in a longer setup for each spell where I have the boss move to a specific location w/o teleporting and start the spell once they reached that location but even in the extra stage I didn't quite perfect that as the timing between the 3 of them wasn't perfect...but If I make another variable...yes...yes...that could perfect it...
  
  I'll work on that later today perhaps.
  
  Interesting idea about the sfx and music option...ya...that would be better as most of the time you don't have time to change that while you are dodging danmaku...I'll tweak that as I'm tweaking the "teleporting" thing.
  
  Okay the teleportation thing is going to take me some time so...I am going to do another "patch" of this game and coin it v1.9. This patch will take into account most of your guys suggestions. I'm not going to implement every suggestion but the ones I feel are the best suggestions I will implement. Thanks so much for the feedback and reports everyone!
  
  Here is what I will be adding in v1.9 (Going to try to have it released by 12/12/10)
  
  1) Bosses will no longer teleport around between spellcards but will move to their starting point for the spell
  2) Stewart's Lightning Spell will have a visual helper to show you where Stewart will teleport to.
  3) Breaking of King's Firewand and Breaking of the Danmaku will not have the Boss teleport randomly but will have them move to the next spot that they will fire from
  4) The hitbox will appear much smaller to give a better representation of what the "true" hitbox is.
  5) Enemy markers will show up at the bottom to show you where the enemy is
  6) Enemy sprite will be larger to land more hits
  7) Your shots will be less spread out so that you land more shots (Kingofrunes focused and unfocused will have less spread, Kitty's unfocused will have less spread, Benier's unfocused will have less spread)
  8) Music and Sfx sound options will be moved to the pause screen only for better convience
  9) A bug where it won't clear or game over when you restart will be fixed.
  
  So that's everything I plan on adding in my upcoming patch. Once again, thanks everyone for all your efforts, feedback, and testing!

  Fix it so that we die immediately when we're killed :<
  
  (meaning that there's like a second delay between being hit and respawning, which is incredibly annoying)

  Someone wanted it so you can death bomb. Use that time between being hit and "respawning" to bomb so you don't respawn and lose a life!
  
  Better to be able to have the chance to bomb and save a life than not at all.
  
  Btw, I uploaded v 1.9! Enjoy!
