Tenjou no Tempest was pretty good

Satori Komeiji's Mental Education is fun.

Koumajou Densetsu 2. The Labyrinth of Touhou games and Luna Nights are good too.

Patchcon, Sanae Fusion, and Dynamarisa 3D.

The Genius of Sappheiros.

Fantasy Maiden Wars

>>21704033
I’ve never played a single good fan game yet. Stick with the official releases desu

Luna nights
Patchcon
Famima
Drilluna
Most of the flash games by that guy who makes the jumping tenshi game
Master burner
Well, I like most of the flash ones, check them all out.

That Earthbound/Mother themed one is neat

The Super Boobhu RPG

Touhou Avatar Dream Battle

2hu era games variants obviously.

Mystical Chain was neat, so were both Koumajo Densetsu.

>>21704033
Fantasy Maiden Wars, especially the last two games. You could straight up remove all Touhou elements out of it and it'd still be a very good SRPG.

>>21704033
Rain Project is a neat little gem if you like metroidvania.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/810780/RAIN_Project__a_touhou_fangame/

I've put the most time into gensowanderer although I'm not sure if its my favorite. It just has a lot of content.

fdf

>>21713571
That game took waaay to much of my study time

>>21713225
name ?

>>21715218
Not him but they are called "Touhou Mother" and "Return of Touhou Mother".
Although to be frank, they aren't very good and fail pretty hard at being a good fangame of either Mother or Touhou. The humor isn't very good either and often relies on making references to other vidya franchises or 2ch memes.
If you're still interested then try the first one at least, the second game was clearly rushed, has atrocious pacing, gameplay and is a bug ridden mess.

Gensokyo no Nazo is great. Non-linear metroidvania with a ton of recruitable bosses.

The fanmade randomizer does a lot to keep it fresh as well:
https://github.com/Ryason55/gnazo_randomizer

>>21713571
Did ZUN draw that?

>>21704033
Patchcon Defend the Library

Someone knows where in the hell I can find DoD Banquet for download? It has been years, but never found it.

>>21704033
Gensou Shoujo Taisen/Fantasy Maiden Wars is unarguably a god-tier Touhou fangame.

Every 2hu has at least one theme or up to five of them, lots of playable characters, great gameplay, a decent plot for a 2hu fangame, great graphics, and 100+ hours of content.

Puppet Dance Performance and Labyrinth of Touhou 2 are great, as well.
Patchcon is a really good time waster, and I mean that as a compliment.

>>21704872
super double this, it's a really awesome game

>>21716265
>Gensou Shoujo Taisen/Fantasy Maiden Wars is unarguably a god-tier Touhou fangame.
It's pretty easily arguable it isn't.

Because the FMW Complete is coming out this summer comiket and so far its shown the devs have redone almost everything. Chances are even probably remade the first two games in the new engine as well.

Fairy or Alive
Tanetsuke Ojiisan 2
Fairy Bikini Dungeon EX
Fairies Heroine

>>21718798
Maybe he'd retcon the final boss as well?
Either has her replaced with Doremy or made a new one.

>>21719370
Maybe? The last game actually did retroactively write Doremy into the game off screen. The Lunarians occasionally talk about knowing a certain other baku who was aware of Makura's shenanigans.

Everything will become clear in just a few weeks.

>>21718798
just because it's being remade doesn't mean it's not god-tier, anon
it's just that the remake will be beyond-god tier

>>21719370
>Maybe he'd retcon the final boss as well?
I doubt that, the entire buildup from the first game to the last is written around the OC, not just being a baku.
Even if Sanbondo tries hard to stick as close to canon as possible (especially compared to other fangame circles) I doubt they'd retcon their OC just because of Doremy. And if they did, they'd also have to retcon sheephu and heaviliy alter most if not all of the final arc of the final game.

>>21721435
>Sanbondo tries hard to stick as close to canon as possible (especially compared to other fangame circles)

-Sanae showing up out of nowhere
-Meiling going shopping
-gay Nitori
-on that note, iffy characterization in quite a few places
-PC-98s walking around everywhere, Yuuka in SDM
I could seriously go on, there are so many ways this statement is untrue.

I don't mind or anything, but honestly when I started going through it I quickly recognized it as one of the more fanon games I'd played. Not awful or even bad, but noticeable.

Are there any fan games that have the entire PC-98 cast as playable characters?

The games made by Desunoya are all good. Amapani, Urapani, Trap Tower and Fantasy Explorer Nitroid being the notable Touhou ones from their library.

>>21721885
Touhou SMT

>>21721885
Pretty much any Touhoumon game.

>>21722047
Wait what? That exists?

>Giving away free shit on twitch.
I don't know why but that caught me off guard.
Don't mind me. I'll just go about expanding the list of games to play.

>>21721435

Anything but that!

Sheephu is for loving bullying

I haven't heard much love for the Desunoya games around here, but they're some of my favorite puzzle-platformers of all time.

>>21723287
At least they are not trying to make money off artist's work blatantly like D*nbooru.

>>21716146
No.

And in the future, if you have problems like this, make sure to specify what program you're using, exactly what you're doing, and exactly what the output is. It's extremely rare for someone to help you just based on you saying you've got "an error".

it works ok thanks

>>21728885
Short but sweet is the name of the game.
If Frontier Aja (or anyone else really) ever make a Sakuya-centric game, I wish they pick up something from Luna Night. The time control gimmick is very well done.

>>21715512
Funny how the game introduces door-like portal before Okina is a thing.

It's not really funny. It's just an old game with a Touhou skin.

Touhou X Mother was a damn good game, don't know about the sequel.

Is the Touhoumon hack scene dead?

I would say so, considering TPDP came out. Some of the hacks were pretty fun, some were straight up awful though.

Enjoying Super Touhou Titty RPG. Unfortunately, the english version has a critical bug that doesn't load a particular image file, thus putting a hard stop on progression.

He has a twitter. https://twitter.com/reimunimutyuu/ Strangely he never announced the English version, like he did with the Youmu ero action game.

>>21750652
Does he respond or even understand English? I sent a bug report to DLsite, as I did find some translation issues too, but everything else before that point was pretty spot on, still worth the 15 bucks I spend on it.

>>21750590
Yeah I started playing that but having to check 4 evos per character and learn a whole new type chart is a bit exhausting.

I'm sure he understands google translate.

Sending it through dlsite might include a translation service to make sure he gets the correct message, but if you send it to him on twitter he'll find out quicker (probably. He doesn't seem to use twitter a lot). I don't think there's any harm in doing both.

>>21752629
Sent it in via DLsite, hopefully everything works out in the end. Its a fantastic game, definately recommended, just a shame.

Because touhoumon enchaned is a pretty great pkmn romhack.

I remember downloading this game years ago and the saves would always get deleted everytime I would exit and reopened the game.

>>21762200
I grabbed mine off Moriya Shrine I think and have had no problem with it so far.

>>21715512
That randomizer sounds fun, but I'm having trouble getting it to work. With it active, the game crashes when I try to start a new game. It's possible I don't have the right version of Genskyo no Nazo, but I have no idea how to check that or where the correct version might be acquired. That github page is the only place I can find anyone talking about a 1.01e version.

>>21762200
I'vw run into that sort of issue with a few games before. You might just need to run it as an administrator, move the folder location, or uncheck the root folder's read-only attribute.

I don't think there's anything in-game that directly tells you which version you have, but if you don't have access to the stage list screen then it's not updated.

Yeah, it was a version issue, I have it working now. Thanks for the link, I'm not great at navigating the Japanese side of the internet.

Is it bad that I explicitly only play Touhou fangames and none of the shoot-em-ups? I'm bad at shootan but I enjoy everything else about it

>>21749853
When?

Also, I found a weird bug where going to Youkai Mountain early somehow put Reisen in my party at level 1. When I reached the point where I could get 7 party members (got early yukari than grabbed nitori) and deposited Reisen, she showed up at Eintei when she had been missing before. When I re recruited her, her level was added to Reimu's level, giving me a level 47 Reisen.

>>21778514
That's fine, anon. The shmups require a certain level of autism similar to speedrunning. I play them on occasion, but they are certainly not something I play regularly.

I can't remember the last time I was happy playing a touhou fan game.

>>21779977
Off topic, but aiming for 1CC is a normal way to play a game, as intended. Speedrunning requires you to refuse to play the game and break it. It's a degenerate activity.

You already know it's fucking Takkoman

>>21780093
It requires memorization of where enemies spawn, learning of the patterns and so forth. Depending on the game, it can lean heavily on requiring a lot of repetition to learn the levels as opposed to games where you don't have to do such a thing. 1CC on normal is not too bad for this, but I don't think of normal as 'playing' the game. That sounds more like getting through it to say you beat it on normal. People who 'play' the game go as far as lunatic and all that. That's a lot of doing the same thing over and over. Much like speedrunners.

>>21780905
Any skill takes constant repetition to get good at. The difference between danmaku and speedrunning is that speedrunning tends to involve no applicable skill at all.
If you're good enough to 1CC SA, you can probably blind 1CC any other game on normal without practice, or most other games in the genre. If you spend months speedrunning one game, all you've developed is a list of very specific exploits that don't apply in any other context.
Some of the side games are much closer to speedrunning, since there's a lot of straight up gimmicks and specific strategies involved there.

>>21770419
game was so good I wouldn't even mind double dipping on the switch
fuck reimu though

>>21770419
Source on that? Afaik Cirno data is in the files because she was sorta kinda planned originally but got scrapped.
Also, who are you quoting?

>>21781331
I think people forget how awful they were at video games when they were young. It takes a lot of repetition to get good at any genre of video games. Even jrpgs require you to have some knowledge of the genre to effectively function, though I was tossed into the deep end with final fantasy legend as my first jrpg. No one popped out of the womb good at shooters, but most people have built up the physical skill set to play them over the years. Just the same, no one is born good at shmups. Shumps require no more autism to be competent at them than any other genre does. They're just a genre with a skill set that is unique to it so nothing you've learned from other games is applicable and you have to start from square one like a 5 year old who can't beat the first level of super mario bros.

>>21781331
>If you're good enough to 1CC SA, you can probably blind 1CC any other game on normal without practice
I would disagree. They would still need to practice a considerable amount. I vividly remember when I was good enough to 1CC SA. I could just barely 1CC some of the easier ones after a couple tries. The harder ones like UFO would destroy me though, often killing me by stage 3. I had no practice with this one. If they could 1CC it on Hard though, sure, they would probably be a lot better.
>Some of the side games are much closer to speedrunning, since there's a lot of straight up gimmicks and specific strategies involved there.
This is specifically the portion I'm getting at, but I think there is much more gimmick in the mainline than you are saying.
IN has a notorious amount of gimmick to it for instance. EoSD has a big RNG factor in the Remilia fight. And some require mastery of the gimmick specific to that game to do properly.

I would like to clarify that I'm not saying it takes the same amount of time as speedrunning. But it does use the same principle of 'grinding' to even win proper. That's how the genre is unfortunately. Not all games are like this, mind you, since they draw on knowledge or logic that someone would naturally have despite never picking up one of the games.

>>21782159
I'd also like to clarify I'm not trying to diss shmups. And I will agree that a lot of it has to do with the average person likely having a large degree less exposure to the genre that makes it hard to get into.

As much as I loathe to make such a tired connection, when Demons' Souls came out it was toted as very difficult. Dark Souls came out and was said to be much harder. People who played DeS disagreed, saying DeS was much harder. It was, in fact, stupidly easy compared to DS. So things like what >>21781920 said are certainly true. But in terms of gameplay, shmups are one of those games that rely on a bit more game-specific knowledge than some genres.

>>21778604
Oh you managed to discover that bug too huh? Glad it resolved.. sort of. Reisen is rather bugged.

But anyways. Its later in the game once you get all the Shards and head off to (What I assume is) The finale. You literally get hard stopped with a bunch of errors.

I've been in emails with DLsite about it and they keep sending me the same zip folder while telling me its been updated.

>>21781920
>I think people forget how awful they were at video games when they were young
Joke is on you. When I was 7 years old I was able to play nightmare Quake, no miss original Contra, do Super Mario under 10 minutes. Those were good times.

>>21782733
That's good, dear.

>>21781920
A RTS was the first game I've ever played so complexity and learning curves in games was never an issue for me and I tended to learn fast.
Being good at certain genres can certainly make you good at other genres. Shmup skills are closest to Rhythm games, if anything.

I made a fangames pastebin, lemme know what you guys think. https://pastebin.com/Jc2e0wLm

I'm aware there's gonna be a bit of missing entries as I only put games I've reviewed but I'm welcome to suggestions as per the instructions in there.

>>21783738
>touhou dokapon kingdom
The official name is here
https://www.dlsite.com/home/work/=/product_id/RJ199261.html
I don't have a download of it, but I figured you should put the proper name at least.

Some additions I would add:
-Sengoku Gensokyo, it's pretty old but very cool. Has great music. Campaign takes a considerable amount of time to beat, and has an NG+ boss if you beat it a second time around.
-Aya Ace Attorney Game: I forgot the proper name of it, but it was pretty fun. Not too long.
-Mount and Blade mod: /jp/ actually continued the work of an existing Mount and Blade mod made by some Chinese people. I don't have a link to the most update version but a lot of progress was made on it.

>>21783806
Also, ignore the fact that I completely missed that you had the ace attorney game in there already.

>>21783738
Of the few mentioned here:

1) Takkoman -Kouzatsu World-
Play very much like MMX/MMZ (more the latter). The ah, "characters" aren't your regular Gensokyo citizen. It's better if you read the story up yourself; it's in the wiki. Maybe it's just me but the difficulty can be crazy.

2) Satori Komeiji's Mental Education
A puzzle game where you as Satori has to guide Koishi (and later Orin and Okuu) by interacting with various signs and objects. There's 120 stages so depending on how good you are it can take a while.

3) Gensokyo no Nazo
It's basically an open-world platformer, and when I say open I mean there's about 200+ maps that's connected from one to the other, and some need to be opened from one side. If you get a game over any unlocked door will stay like that and you'll keep any upgrades, so only your score (and maybe your sanity cause screw dying in the middle of nowhere) will suffer. Best part about this game is you can recruit every boss, basically granting you extra lives on top of new abilities.

>>21782469
>But anyways. Its later in the game once you get all the Shards and head off to (What I assume is) The finale. You literally get hard stopped with a bunch of errors.
After the stuff with Seija and the giant toad, right?

>>21783738
>MegaMari
>The game suffers from extremely stiff and unresponsive controls that make the platforming in the game an absolute nightmare to the point of it being near unplayable.
Did you get MegaMari mixed up with Rock Maiden? MegaMari's controls are a total ripoff of Mega Man, right down to having that same weird 6-frame tiptoe animation before you start running.

Wow thanks for all your feedback guys. I really appreciate it.

Keep in mind that I'm gonna need a bit more information on the games if I am to add them to the list for consistency, which can be found here https://boards.fireden.net/vg/thread/224877214/#225023415 also I would also like to know how long it would take to beat the game. Thanks in advance.

>>21783806
Thanks, I didn't know the actual name so I just put that in as a placeholder. I'll be sure to make changes to that. I've heard of sengoku gensokyo and someone actually did a brief playthrough of it on our general. Is that mod active?

>>21784141
Oh thanks for reminding me of Takkoman, while indeed the uhh cast is quite unique the gameplay looked really smooth and fluid and I wanted to play that game for some time. That satori game also looked quite nice as well from what I remember. And Gensokyo no Nazo sounds quite nice, and you've almost given me enough information to put it in the pastebin.

>>21784168
Sorry, I played a few levels of it and while it was nice to see Alphes art, the gameplay was just very repetitive and stale and none of the weapons felt good to fire.

>>21784170
I did play quite a bit of the original megaman games and the controls were fluid and tight but MegaMari was very tricky to play, perhaps I didn't give it a good enough chance though.

>>21784385
>is that mod active?
Uh. Hard to say. The last general about it that I recall seeing was a couple months ago. There were actually two separate mods. Touhou Origins and Touhou Tinder. Origins' work was completed and the person who was working on it moved over to Tinder to continue building off that one. I'm unsure just how far the progress got, but it was completely functioning and all that good stuff. I'm just unsure if all of the planned features were completed. Honestly, I'd appreciate if someone could link the latest builds that were posted.

>>21783806
The Ace Attorney game is called Shin Gyakuten Touhou.

>>21784409
Thanks for the info, and yeah since it's a mod and you've provided me with enough info, if someone could find the active working links for it I would put it in the pastebin. I'll see if I can find it myself.

>>21784426
Yeah, the english name was translated as Aya Shinemaru - Touhou Attorney so that's what I put in the pastebin. The person actually made a sequel but sadly it has yet to be translated.

It's a really fucking great game. I beat the japanese version with no issues or glitches, it's in the pastebin if you wanna check it out, but yeah the english version does sound better if you can find a fix or don't get the game breaking error.

>>21784168
I enjoyed it quite a bit as well. It's not as good as the EDF games it's imitating, but it still has a lot of fun weapons and some decent battlegrounds. My only real issue with it is that I couldn't figure out a reasonable countermeasure against fairies on the highest difficulties that didn't involve a bunch of grinding, though it's possible I overlooked something.

>>21784493
>I wonder if we could patch it.
If someone could decrypt the Data.wolf file, an attempt could be made.

>>21784909
>My only real issue with it is that I couldn't figure out a reasonable countermeasure against fairies on the highest difficulties that didn't involve a bunch of grinding
Aint that just EDF? As much as 5 and Iron Rain try to mitigate that.

>>21784909
I like Dynamarisa because even though I love the concept of EDF, I also hate spiders and don't want to touch it.

>>21783738
I think that you should fuck off to /vg/.

The first game was great, hope this one gets a translation as well.

>>21785099
In EDF, I can generally prevail even against hordes of enemies that would all kill me in one hit through overwhelming firepower. Fairies, though, are extremely numerous, very fast, small targets, and fliers. Ultimately, I couldn't figure out any way to keep them at bay without taking hits, and those hits hurt like hell on the highest difficulty.

They're similar to the small UFO enemies in some of the EDF entries, but the small UFOs are much larger targets, are less tenacious, appear in far fewer missions (and when they appear in large numbers they typically lack ground support), and it's often possible to take cover against their attacks. As a result, I find them much more manageable, and I can defeat a ton of them even if I can only absorb a few laser bursts. Getting the right weapons for the job takes a little grinding, but not nearly as much as getting enough armor pickups to actually tank hits.

>>21784909
It's been a while since I played, but I recall getting them in a stunlock with a rapid fire weapon and swapping to one of Remilia's spears, then swapping back to keep them stunned while the spear cools down. You could also just fling DEB-MAX and hope for the best.

>>21783738
You should remove the tier list so you stop showing off your shitty taste. Better if you just update the wiki https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Fangames
between the wiki and Doujinstyle there's not really a need for a pastebin anyway. Or are you just making it to take to that shit /vg/ Touhou general?

I'm playing Takkoman right now and I'm having trouble unlocking this achievement. I think it's saying to view a replay, but that's not doing it. Am I reading this wrong or is it just bugged or something?

>>21784968
I should be able to extract files from Data.wolf, and the editor can repack them. But I can't do that if it's DRM'd. If someone has a decrypted version I can extract the contents.

>>21783738
>It's in Japanese only and if you're game hasn't been fully patched yet be sure to download it from the official website located here at the bottom of the webpage: http://shakna.jp/Tempest/
It's been translated/

>>21785487
It's like Disgaea?

You say the first is translated, but the dev is saying that he's not bringing it to steam

>>21704033
Shinning Shooting Stars
Phantasm Dream
Fantastic Danmaku Festival 1 and 2
Those are some of the best fangames I have played and I recommend them

>>21786589
Yeah more or less like Disgaea, but with Touhou spin on it like you have to bomb through a boss unit's danmaku before getting close to them.

I played the first one long time ago. Back when Pooshlmer exists, it had dedicated threads for this game and some anons did unofficial menu translation patch for it.

>>21783806
>Touhou Dokapon
I need this game ASAP

Anyone here played Touhou-A-Live, or the original it's based on for that matter? It's been a few years but I remember it being worth a playthrough despite questionable design decisions.

>>21787532
I've been playing through it lately. It feels more like a hard mode romhack of Live-A-Live than a standalone game. It's fun, but it's rarely doing anything that the original game didn't do.
I hear it gets pretty different in the final chapters, at least.

>>21787613
It's not that much more difficult than the original though you'll probably have to grind a little in the final scenarios. As far as those are concerned they certainly are ambitious. Can't say they always hit the mark and some parts feel bare-bones but definitely ambitious.

>>21786566
Oh shit really? Where?

>>21786936
Yeah I think I actually have the game on MEGA somewhere, lemme see if I can fetch it for you.

>>21786936
Found it, I think I even pre-patched it before uploading so it should work as is, make sure you apply locale emulator if your system isn't in native japanese. It's also in the pastebin as well.

>>21786774
sounds like something lost, too bad

There's allegedly a patch in the works for the sequel. I'll keep an eye out

Any comfy game with an english translation? Most Touhou fangames I've played are insanely difficult (like the early versions of Touhoumon or Genso Wanderer).

>>21791246
Touhou Gensokyo. Just know that a lot of the characters are drawn by different people which makes the art a bit jarring.

>>21792988
Sengoku Gensokyo*
My bad.

>>21788650
thanks, you did a good deed friend.

>>21732067
Is there a RAW version of this? This machine TL is horrifying

>>21793129
https://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=73723042 found it, the dev is kind of constantly updating it

You should probably just download this and hook it with a machine if you must

>>21793129
Here.
https://www.axfc.net/u/3980769
It's the latest version with WBaWC characters and taken from the creator's pixiv.
https://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=74686234

I don't mind it being machine-translated since it makes it at least playable, but I wonder if it could update the game without removing the translation since the creator has been updating the game following Touhou's progress.
Perhaps you're planning to translate it?

>>21793234
heck naw I ain't, I don't know the first thing about rpg translating, though I can read Japanese decently enough that I'd rather take it over broken machine english

thanks though

>>21793218
>>21793234
by the way if you are going to use a machine, use textractor

>>21791246
I find it curious that someone would describe Genso Wanderer as "insanely difficult." I thought it had a pretty gentle difficulty curve. Getting through the longer dungeons without save-scumming takes some practice, but there are plenty of easy dungeons to learn the ropes in.

>>21792988
This is a good suggestion. Some of the bosses can take some effort to bring down if you don't know what you're doing, but the AI just doesn't pose a real threat at the strategic level.

>>21783738
>Dissapearing of Gensokyo
>Sadly this game ends way too soon, running you about 30 hours long.
NIGGA WAT. 30 hours is very long, especially for a fan game.

>>21793291
If he's calling Genso Wanderer insanely difficult I wonder what he would say on both Labyrinth of Touhou.

>>21714727
Definitely this and the sequel Reloaded.
Grinding is easy, fun and some characters are just straight up broken.
Anyone else play Lotus Labryinth yet? It was kinda short, though.

>>21793540
My LoT2 save is currently at 142 hours. And I'm not at the final floor yet (still waiting on translations)

>>21793540
I was joking lol. I liked the the game so much I never wanted it to end.

>>21714727
>>21795108
I just finished Watasuku Bunnyland, am I almost done Reloaded?

>>21783738
What a shitty tier list

>>21788650
Anyone have a link for a poorfag?

>>21796931
it has DRM, meaning someone would have to crack it

I think someone did for his porn game, but obviously more people bought that

Anyone know the link or name of an upcoming fangame featuring Suika? It's a platformer with artstyle somewhat similar to Touhou Luna Nights

>>21797423
gensokyo night festival and it looks fantastic.

>>21797431
Thank anon. Gotta keep an eye on this.

It seems like there is a Renko fangame in the works and looks similar Yomawari: Night Alone
https://twitter.com/Shishamohurai/status/1156479332996403200

>>21797670
That looks very early in development. Still glad to see it, and I realized horror 2hu game is pretty rare.

>>21794472
Nevermind that. What about Genius of Sapherios?

>>21792994
Thanks.

I miss playing Touhou fangames so much, be it original games or parodies.
I think I played most things before 2012, I imagine the stream of new games reduced over time, any good games released since then?

>>21800886
luna nights is the best touhou fan-game i have ever played, play it

>>21783738
when is Touhou Shoujo Tale of Beautiful Memories translated version coming out ? it looks really good

>>21801822
https://www.dlsite.com/eng/work/=/product_id/RE258506.html

>>21782159
I find that skill hardly transfers between shmups, I started with UFO, played it the most, and so it was my first 1cc. I had trouble with easier games like MoF and PCB afterwards.

>>21802484
I started with SA, and spent a long time getting my rectum ravaged by Orin. I eventually decided to try out some of the other games for a change of pace and to hopefully polish up my skills, and ended up 1CCing EosD in about two hours. I think I 1CC'd IN a day or two after that. With my confidence bolstered, I returned to SA, and once again failed to get past Orin.

It's hard to say whether I breezed through EoSD and IN so easily because of all the time I'd spent playing SA, though, or if that's just due to the way my skills are skewed. Based on what people have said in the gameplay threads, I seem to suffer greatly against opponents that require learning patterns, while I find ones focused on RNG stuff and micro-dodging extremely easy.

>>>21796247
>I just finished Watasuki Bunnyland, am I almost done Reloaded?
Depends on what you mean by "finished." If you just defeated Kokoro, then that's pretty much the end of the main storyline (barring a couple DLC scenarios that might be included with Reloaded by default, I forget what all got bundled in there,) but there are still a ton of dungeons to clear. If you've actually cleared all of the Bunnyland dungeons, then there are still some more "grindin' forever"-themed dungeons that can be accessed through Rinnosuke at the Ancient City, and Kasen at the shrine.

Genius of Sappheiros was really fun. Too bad the sequel never got translated.

>>21802420
Grats on the clear. I just got to what I assume is the final boss

She gets big with four spots to attack, right? Or am I not yet done?

I think I need more items or equipment.

>>21802671
Apparently you can make her harder by beating bonus bosses mima has a battle sprite in the decompiled files I looked through of the jap version but yeah giant hecatia with her main body, head, and two celestial bodies is the last phase of the final boss.

If you want to cheese it, have yukari use her gap stuff and have her shove items into other party members.
I personally used Reimu, Reisen, and Tenshi. Tenshi buffed everyone and used items. Reimu healed people and spammed her AoE special. Reisen healed people and spammed her AoE special. It takes a while to get her down, and I killed the moon/earth/hell a fuckload of times before she went down. She may seem bad, but the timing for defending against her attacks is actually pretty easy.
If you desperately need better equipment, give Reimu her Yin Yang orb and pay kosaga to upgrade its attack. Grab the magic bean from the Akis, get the fertilizer by a boss in the sunflower garden who is harassing Yuuka then going to the magical science place in the dream world, and then talk to Yuuka in front of the SDM to get access to the games Lazy Shell Equivalent.
Also, buy a bunch of revive potions from Tenshi and make sure that you have accessories that protect from debuffs equipped.

Side note, found out about this just now:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1124060/Touhou_Shoujo_Tale_of_Beautiful_Memories/

>>21802693
Fuck yeah. Thats awesome its coming to Steam.

I'm using Koishi instead of Tenshi. Tempermental heart can hit for 1000 when it wants to. Reisen has the Lazy Shell with debuff immuinity.

Wish me luck.

>>21802703
My Koishi had screwed special stats because I always chose physical stats to improve. Tenshi ended up being a better pick for bosses because her defenses were just fantastic.

And it is great that it is coming to steam, but I feel a bit miffed that the dlsite customers were basically beta testers.

>>21802708
Honestly didn't mind betatesting it. I was the one who found and reported the game breaking bug so.. eh?

>>21743663
It's a good adventure through nostalgia and old jap media. but I wouldn't really call it amazing.

I say this knowing that not even a year ago it's ending was the first thing to make me genuinely cry in years

>>21783738
why the fuck isn't shanghai.exe in there, sure it's dead but you can still do 99% of the game, and an anon is working on finishing it himself.

here's anons most recent version.

Wow, I assumed he wouldn't be allowed to put it on steam since it was a dlsite translation.

This new tweet by zenerat I really enjoyed

https://twitter.com/zenerat/status/1156914712769990656

>>21803605
very nice

>>21803397
it's being published by DLsite

Among other things I have an obsession with senko no ronde clones so stuff like genso rensa, genso rinbukyoku, and acceleration of patchouli are right up my alley. My favorite is probabably aop

Objectively i feel that genso skydrift is the correct answer though

I wish marisa party wasn't near-unplayable.

>>21803605
Maybe I just don't play enough puzzle platforming, but that's pretty damn upbeat for a puzzle platforming.
Ah, not saying I dislike it, mind you.

what do you mean

>>21805082
Hold on, is that Koto Inari? I thought that he stop drawing 2hus and he was making fangame all along. What a surprise.

>>21805082
>>21805178
gonna be some depressing/spooky stuff considering his other art works

I know a site with 350+ 2hu fangames, there might be some surprises in there since I haven't played them all.
http://doujingravity-remaster.blogspot.com/2017/06/touhou-fangames-complete-list_28.html

Mugen Nise Sato, essentially Valkyrie Profile 2hu, was a good surprise.
There's also stuff like Touhou VS (2hu Gundam vs Gundam) and 東方百鬼合戦 (2hu Plants vs Zombies) for less known good Touhou fangames.

>>21805178
I believe be developed/drew it right before he started doing original stuff. He could've planned it to be his last Touhou work.

>>21805404
Awesome!

>>21801822
Yeah the game was already in the pastebiin plus it's english link but I only put it in as Super Touhou RPG and not the full name, I'll add that soon. I managed to beat it on the japanese version but it was quite a challenge to do so, glad the english version is out.

>>21802655
Ah thanks for that info, I did beat a 100-floor dungeon in the game and as for DLC I think all I have left is the Sanae DLC and I'm done, thanks anon! I did try to do the warphole dungeon in bunnyland but fuck that, shit is pure torture.

>>21803081
Cause I haven't played the game and no one has given me enough info to put it in the pastebin, I did hear it's really good though.

>>21805142
Beat the main game and play them to find out, the developers will even give you a warning about the DISRESPECT prior to viewing them in the game,.

>>21806698

>>21806698
>i dont like castlevania
Casual

>>21806541
well I gave the link already, and for info to put in the paste bin: A MegaMan battle network clone, arguably better than the original games, gameplay is broken down and explained pretty much completely in the tutorial, lots of chips, lots of bosses, that's really all there is to it.

>>21807526
Thanks anon, I just need to know how long the game is.

>>21807585
Depends on if you just want a run through the plot, or completionist, I want to say like 10 hours for basic plot, but if you fight all the V3's and do the sidequests and chip farm it can easily reach 30+

>>21806787
Do they also act like that in story mode too?

Is Gensou Wanderer meant to be beaten without item inheritance and any other roguelite elements like in the original Shiren, or are they pretty much a necessity?

>>21783738
Looks pretty good overall but MegaMari absolutely does not belong in shit tier. It's mid tier at worst, easily comparable to if not better than most real Rockman games.

>>21806541
>I did try to do the warphole dungeon in bunnyland but fuck that, shit is pure torture.
It's not really as bad as it first appears, you just need a solid understanding of how to make the most of the crafting/fusion mechanics. I thought those dungeons seemed like unfair RNG bullshit at first, but I can consistently clear almost all of them without save scumming now.

>>21808501
Genso Wanderer has a ton of different dungeons, and those dungeons follow different rules. Some of them do absolutely require the player to bring along upgraded equipment. There are others that can be cleared without it, though, and many that require the player to start off "naked" (which are the ones I generally enjoy the most.) Similarly, some dungeons ban crafting and partners, some start you off with all item types unidentified, etc. There's a good amount of variety after you get through the first two storyline dungeons.

If you're looking for a strictly western-style roguelike experience then I wouldn't recommend the game, but if you're open to at least some "roguelite" elements then I think it's worth trying out. I generally prefer the western roguelike formula, but I ended up being pretty fond of the item upgrade mechanics in Genso Wanderer. There's a lot more to it than just stacking pluses on a weapon.

>>21808653
Good info, thanks. I generally favor western-style traditional roguelikes, but the first Shiren the Wanderer is one of my favorite games of all time.

>>21808311
Not really. But the situation is different, so it's not like they can't. Hell, iirc they still do the "Alice gets rejected" joke in the main story

Any good multiplayer touhou games ?

I liked Touhou Genso Rondo Bullet Ballet because it introduced me to an actually well-made and fun bullet hell-fighting game hybrid, of which I had no idea was even a genre prior to playing it.

>>21812165
I wanna play PoD.D with my fellow /jp/sies ;_;

>>21812165
Besides the official games, there's Gensokyo no Nazo and the game >>21813469 mentioned.

I love when these games have a huge ass roster and can even manage to include some relatively recent characters(es. Clownpiece). Outside TPDP what other games do it?

>>21815184
Having a huge roster? Gensou Shoujo Taisen 3 and 4.
Including the newer characters, there's also the Touhou SMT one.

So I might buy Genso Wanderer for Switch. It's localized by NISA though so can anyone tell me if they did anything to fuck it up? It has the JP audio thankfully but it's NISA so obviously I have little faith in them.

>>21818564
Why not just play it on the PC?

>>21818564
Since it's NISA you can safely assume any comedy and quite a lot otherwise has been totally made up.

>>21818658
Are there any differences besides being pirate-able?

>>21818564
When I wish I could find the thread when it was released.

>>21818828
¡Ay, caramba! They can't even get the verbal tic right.

I have recently beaten Marisa's Kirsame Magic Shop. It was absolutely terrible. And buggy as fuck.

Well, every dev has to make some turd eventually, I guess.

>>21808501
Thank you and yeah megamari is the one that I get that sort of comment on, I might have not been fair to it as I didn't play it for long, it was a hasty addition to the pastebin without much thought. I might revisit it and change it's placement.

>>21808653
The 100 floor futo dungeon allowed for infinite crafting but I think the warphole in bunnyland didn't even allow for that, or something, all I know is that it's insanely harder, but i'm sure with enough practice it is doable.

>>21815184
Gensou Wanderer and Super Touhou RPG has every windows character up to LoLK.

>>21818564
There are a few small mistakes like with Akyuu's name and title but other than that the dialogue is pretty solid and nothing seems to be odd with any of the characters.

Kumajou Densetsu and Gensokyo no Nazo are pretty fun, i just wish there was a way to not fuck up the controls. "Start" is impossible to bind correctly and closes the games. Can't put GnN at a decent resolution either.

>>21783738
Where's IKUSAAAAAAAN!! in high tier bud

>>21821550
I never played it, is it good?

>>21821564
It's a much faster bullet hell, with fucking amazing music and boss fights. The main gimmick is that you can activate Iku's fever time mode which let's you wipe bullets from the screen by running into them.
https://youtu.be/EHZp7jiGPqw
It's crazy fun even though I suck at it too much to even beat it

Just gotta make sure you don't get the shit ones.

>>21822197

>>21847688

>>21799519
late reply
the early versions of GoS were fiendish, but the game became much easier with the Matsuri re-release, and then even easier with Soujinengi V. Which slows down enemies, lets you equip6more abilities and so on.
All in all not terribly difficult outside of the deep-end bonus bosses.

>>21848527
I didn't use Alice and the game in general was really hard, by the point I noticed how useful Alice is I already was on the last 3 dungeons of the main story.
I just didn't like Alice very much and suffered for that, but still had fun coming up with strats to defeat each boss.

>>21704979
Played, can confirm they are all great

>>21812165
If you enjoy ASSFAGGOTS, Defense of the Shrines (DotS) is pretty fun, at least the Warcraft 3 version.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74BjO7MP4kw

There's a Dota 2 mod that's supposed to be a port of the original mod but I'm sure it has way less characters than the WC3 one.

>>21847688
It looks like it's not going to get a Steam release which is disappointing but it still looks really good.

>>21848565
well naturally, refusing to use a character is like an optional challenge, even if it's a gimmicky character like Cirno instead. With all options available it's mid tier difficulty with a handful spikes.

>>21721487
>-PC-98s walking around everywhere, Yuuka in SDM
To be fair, ZUN has said PC-98 characters can be considered to still be walking around with everyone, they just aren't "on screen" in the games

>>21704033
I'm fond of Gensokyo Ambition myself, although I haven't played it in a long time. One of the first few fangames I bought personally

>>21848026
Legend of Zelda: Bully the cast of EoSD edition?

I wonder if NOH will ever finish his danganronpa game
Now that he's turned it into a game instead of a web series I don't think it'll ever come out

Just finished with hollow song of birds. Any other good fangames styled like the mainline games?

>>21843710
some of them are "finished", however he updates his games quite a lot. This is why he doesn't sell them. The aim is to have you get on his not-patreon and spend money every month to get every patch, basically.

Charming

>>21852542
So the games are exclusively for that website and you need to buy and constantly pay for updates from there? No wonder it's untouched by gaijin.

>>21852550
pretty much

This is why, although I'm very interested in his games and especially his survival horror one, fuck no am I not giving him money. I'll wait a year or two and see if I'm still interested. He'd probably be done with most of them by then

>>21852556
I checked his pixiv and he seems to have been making games for years, judging by the number of them (though they all seem to use the same engine and even map).
Maybe check if there are already older games you can get. Otherwise, that means he won't leave any of his games soon.

>>21721487
>Meiling going shopping
I might be misremembering but wasn't Sakuya the one who told Meiling to come with her since they were gathering supplies before the scarlet mist incident started? She didn't really abandon her post.

>gay Nitori
I wouldn't say she's gay, she's more of "muh power of friendship" the character. Since the story and dialogue started getting written almost a decade ago by now. I can kinda see why they'd go for Nitori's pre-jew characterization.

>>21848565
You kinda have to use Alice though. Like any other character as well. I played the old and actually good version of GoS (with a fanpatch doubling material droprate, as that was originally beyond retarded), and mostly didn't use Alice either (she was in my B party), but it did work quite alright. Just gotta build good parties. Death-Axe Aya + Sanae carry a lot on their own so Alice isn't REALLY needed most of the time. I don't think the game ever made me use her when I didn't have her in my party anyway.

Sanae on the other hand. Playing the game without her is usually a very bad idea...

>wasn't Sakuya the one who told Meiling to come with her
That's the thing, Sakuya probably would not do that. They've all got their posts, and duties outside of the mansion are pretty much Sakuya exclusive. It's not a big deal, but Sakuya's dedication to Remilia and her job responsibilities is absurd. She'll basically do everything herself, no assistance. Only time she asked Meiling to do something was to try finding Lily in the gardens (since the gardens are Meiling's responsibility)

And I would say there was yuri-teasing. I know that stuff when I see it. She's definitely more blatantly friendly than she should be, too. While sure, "money-grubbing" was something we were informed of later, she was always a two-faced cunt. Nitori in MoF was self-interested and opportunistic, people just assumed her saying she's a friend of humanity was honest even though honestly, she attacks you several times.

i downloaded puppet dance performance + shard of dreams. do i start puppet dance performance first?

Is Shard of Dreams fully translated?

Bad news, Sanbondo announced on Twitter like half a day ago that the game got delayed and won't be arriving to Comiket after all.
My nip isn't very good, but apparently there were some issues with the distribution of Complete Box.

>>21855123
Yes anon. Well technically no, the opening video is still all in japanese. But it's the only thing left untranslated. Also btw finding sources of easy grinding just after you begin the postgame is retarded hard

I had the time of my life when this one came out

>>21856553
I'm just glad it's happening :)

>>21780152
I came here to post this. You're a man of amazing taste.

>>21856553
Anyone get the Complete Box download card from them today?

>>21822479
Always relevant.

Was the newest game by the people who made Gensou Wanderer confirmed to also have an english release on Switch eventually? I saw a trailer for the japanese version some time ago in the news.

What’s the confusion?

>>21864421
did it get translated?

>>21864892
Well I am working on it actually using unity auto translate plugin as a base. but I probably won’t do the events other than fixing the truly unreadable ones, mostly focused on UI and making it playable

>>21865371
Nice, godspeed to you anon.

>>21864160
Now those are some big Letty's.

>>21865404
The only real issue here is not only am I not good with dialogue but I can’t really translate dialogue as well as I can the UI so you’ll have to be stuck with the auto translate(which shockingly is handling this game better than the other ones from this circle) but anyone who can will easily be able to fix whatever is there by opening up the txt file and fixing whatever lines they want fixing

>>21865673
Also for a bonus I decided to also just take from the circle’s newer game files for portraits of characters too new for this one since I prefer this game’s gameplay, so I added custom characters for people all the way to four seasons. They don’t have the sprites since you can’t give custom characters those
