When I was still trying to remember when there's a lull in the wave of enemies I just left items laying around on the screen to pick up. Or you can watch the replay of a scorerunner.

For the two sections with fairies that continuously pop out and fire aimed shots at you I simply started from the right, streamed for a bit then made a wide circle around the edge of the screen. Start streaming from left to right for the second section, I used to run into fairies entering from the side. This applies to Normal and Easy at least.

Also, oh boy jugs of boss milk.

>>2484276
The leaving items behind to keep them up later is a must know strategy, but this stage just don't want you to get faith. The parts when the big fairies appear, they take way too much time to die and this drains my faith really fast. I use to bomb a lot in this part.

On the other fairies, I'll try it. Normally I just place on the side I'm closer at the moment they show up so I really don't have a solid strategy there.

On a side note...
I'm not doing good tonight.

Try shooting her at point blank until the green bullets cover the screen. Then move to the square in the middle for the rest of the card, since you only have to weave through one wave of scattered green bullets there. If you shot her at point blank though, she shouldn't have enough time to get off more than a couple waves anyway.

Yeah, especially because it encourages playing the first stages very aggressively. Increasing your point item value by another 10000 is irrelevant when you're going to end the run after the boss, but it's worth it if you collect another 1400 point items later.

It's a scoring system reminiscent of TONS of other fuckin games with chaining systems. Being unoriginal and completely ignoring what the fans have come to expect from the series makes it good?

Just downloaded. Pretty fun, but do you have any more specifics on the mechanics?
Focus mode seems to just be holding Shot for a while. Any other fire modes I didn't find?
How does the lives system work? I had a 'Guard', which seemed to be separate from my lives.
Is there some kind of slow mode enabled when the screen gets really thick, or is my computer just really bad?
Bullet cancelling was done by destroying certain enemies; anything else? I noticed that in the final boss fight I got to some bullets were disappearing as they got close to me, like I had some kind of shield. Did I, or are they just supposed to disappear like that?
And could you elaborate on "items having higher value based on proximity"? Just means that being closer to the shit thats blowing up means more points?


The nice thing about Touhou is that all this kind of information is laid out real nice on the wiki. That's why I don't play many other danmaku games.

tapping the shot button gives you a shot, holding it gives you a focused shot.
Guard can be toggled in the options, it's basically an autobomb. If you get hit, you lose a bomb and a shitload of point items, but don't die. If you bomb normally, you don't lose as many point items, you actually get some extra, you do a load of damage to the boss and get longer invincibility.
You get an extra live every 5 million points, also there's an extra live at the end of stage 3 but I'm not sure how to toggle it.
Yes there's slow mode, it's the wait option in the menu.
I think they disappear if your guard was toggled before. Destroying big enemies seems to cancel bullets.
Items start at 8x value. The value decreses the longer they take to travel to you, so if you destroy an enemy at the top of the screen while you're camping at the bottom, you'll only get 1x. There's also a counter at the upper right, it decreases when your guard is toggled by a hit and is multiplied by 100 and added to your score after each stage.
To score you need to stay close to the items, toggle hidden item chests (usually where turret enemies were before) by passing them in focus mode, and hoard lives as you get 2 million for each live left at the end of stage 5.

slow mode is on by default so no reason to change it by the way. The whole game seems very inspired by mushihimesama, judging from the bullet patterns.

>hidden item chests
The hell. Is that normal in STGs?

>end of stage 5
Cool. Made it to the final boss on my first try.

Thanks for all the info. I'll have to play it again later.

Got killed at the first 10 seconds of Possessed by Phoenix in my third attempt. I swear this is the next extra I'm going to learn after I finish with Flandre.

Think of them as destroyable boxes on the ground. The earlier you trigger them the better, they'll keep spawning 500 point items until they leave the screen. Most of them are in the big circular burned spaces where stationary enemies were.

Ah yes, I remember seeing that happen. I didn't know what was causing it, of course.

But is that normal in STGs? Hidden point items? As I said, my only real experience is with Touhou.

Depends on the game. Cave games usually have one hidden 1UP but everyone knows about it because it's a freaking 1up. Other stuff would be things like destroying dodonpachi's 1st boss's options while they're rotating, giving you 10 big star items.
Battle Garegga has tons of hidden stuff, including alternate versions of your standard ships, hidden ships, hidden items, hidden option formations depending in what order you collect power ups and maybe more.

Uh, OP, what difficulty, no-wait, accel, and auto-guard option?

[Anonymous No.]

>>2490281
defaults are wait-on guard-on accel-off so I propose we go with that.
I think turning guard off gives you a boost in score at the end , but you've to be good to profit on it.

[Let's Play some Danmaku. No.]

>>2490281
All the defaults. Also ... got a black screen when pasting it on paint. Awesome.

You can press print on the score screen, at least that works for me.

replay screen is even better because of more detailed information

So would you guys recommend Blue Wish? I like Touhou, thought Mushihime-same was mediocre, and hated DDP.

[Let's Play some Danmaku. No.]

I was able to take a screenshot on windowed mode. Fullscreen always returned black screen.

Don't get near them. More purple bullets and giants flying machines coming your way.

10 minutes left.

Try it, it's only 40 Mb. It's score system doesn't compare to any of those, the bullet spreads are somewhat similar to mushi. I think it's great.

I was gonna put an entry in this one, until I got to an 80 SECOND non-card that had to be milked to maximize score. Worst scoring system ever.

Winner is OP.

The boundary between danmaku and image limit is ahead, so that would be all for this thread. Thanks to all the players, may do another thread tomorrow.

Happy Danmaku.
