I really enjoy these Shoot the Bullet series myself but the problem is whether if the list of characters involves Flandre. I rather doubt it but Flandre was my motivation when I spend an overnight trying to get to the Extras in StB...

Here is the blog page for those Moonspeaker with proper knowledge of English Grammar(unlike myself

) to translate

Touhou Project 12.5 Double Spoiler ~ Touhou Bunkachou (StB)

Right now, I'll give you a behind-the-scenes look at this, the second StB.
The people who think "I don't need any new story or plot development. I want something I can play during my lunch break" find themselves enjoying longer games as well, when they play them, so they can be bullied with danmaku.

If I had to describe the game in one sentence, it would be something like "Shameimaru Aya, the Tengu reporter, obstinately captures Youkai, humans, and others with her camera, and creates overblown dramas to put in her newspaper."

The Tengu can cut away danmaku by capturing it in her camera. Using that, she can find ways to avoid her enemies' carefully-prepared danmaku patterns, giving the game something of a puzzle feel.

This game will have completely new characters and scenes from the previous Bunkachou, Shoot the Bullet. The finished product will be sold at the Shanghai Alice booth at Reitaisai (planned to be ¥1000). Anyone who's interested, please come!
I'm feeling better about a lot of things.

Below are screenshots.
(These shots were taken during the making process.)

*Warning: Compared to the other works in the series, the difficulty level of this game in terms of full completion is rather high, so be prepared.

Can't say I'm a particular fan of StB but I haven't played it that much either, so vOv

There's quite an amount of internet raeg around though.

Keroko · 2010-03-02, 18:49

Geh, another game centered solely around dodging.

Lessee, the screenshots so far confirm... Aki, Nitori and the others are too well shielded by their danmaku to make out.

Blue-kun · 2010-03-02, 19:49

I actually quite enjoy StB and it's not really all about dodging, a lot of it involves figuring out the patterns to get nice scores and all.

Anyway, I'm just somewhat disappointed because going by his blog post, it sounds like it might be more of an expansion thing? "Will have all characters and scenes from the first game", was what was written on the newspost on Gensokyo.org.

Oh well, let's wait and see. I just hope I won't need to clear all the Shoot the Bullet Scenes AGAIN, because I had a hard enough time doing them for the first time, haha~

PS: The name is just hilarious. Double Spoiler? C'mon!

WanderingKnight · 2010-03-02, 23:21

FINALLY 1cc'd PCB Normal (ReimuB). That took way longer than it should have--I reached Yuyuko's next to last spell three times before this run (and captured it this time >_>). And what makes it worse is that I had the best stage 1-4 runs in my life (I reached S5 8/2) and had my worst Youmu run EVER--I think I lost about 5 lives to her in full, plus a lot of panic bombing and death with full bomb stocks. I hate Youmu with a passion--I find I'm way less consistent against her than against Yuyuko herself, especially considering that I reached Stage 6 in more or less the same state as my previous runs.

I'm quite satisfied with my performance against Yuyuko, having not had too much practice with her spellcards. Her final spell sort of caught me by surprise but it wasn't too hard--those ball bullets have really tiny hitboxes and lolreimu hitbox makes it pretty easy to dodge, even though I broke a barrier against it because I'm an idiot.

Seitsuki · 2010-03-03, 02:05

Don't hate Youmu D:
But yeah she's a bi. I especially hate that damn spellcard which sends bullets up from the bottom and which name I will never allow myself to remember. I end up having to bomb every time. Her last card is a bit of a joke tho compared to her earlier ones.
oh and wb Izayoi. You won't know me but I say this now curse you and your Flan. CURSESS

C.A. · 2010-03-13, 05:16

I finally had time off from school and wanted to play Touhou Labyrinth, but then found out I couldn't get it to work.

I installed both fonts, I've always had East Asian, Japanese languages to play all the Japanese games. I've patched the game in the right order, I've also downloaded pre-patched games.

But I still can't get it to work, I don't even see a single thing on the screen. The music loops for a few seconds on a black screen and the program crashes.

Is it because I'm using Vista?

Von Himmel · 2010-03-13, 13:28

StB games..huh..
Talk about some game that I can't even beat the Cirno in it @_@ I hope there's a recurring character from '98 touhou series in Double Spoiler.

Duo Maxwell · 2010-03-14, 11:29

Wow, my first headache is already here, Yamame (3-4).
Took me a while to figure out how to beat her.

Mirrinus · 2010-03-14, 16:41

I want to see Mirai Nikki parodies starring Hatate. Now.

Also, her special ability is basically the ability to use Google. I find that hilarious.

Blue-kun · 2010-03-14, 16:56

I'm up to 6-3. Was having a bit of trouble with Yuugi's circle crap, I figured out HOW to beat it but I'm still commiting all sorts of silly mistakes. Will try it again.

So far I'm really liking the game. Coming from someone who wasn't able to enjoy SA and UFO, I gotta say at least this Double Spoiler is giving me a new chance to get to like those characters. AND, I can't wait to get to EX Level. Reimu, Marisa AND Sanae? This is maaaaaadness! I wonder if we're getting some cool arranges of their themes there!

Also, what's your favourite scene so far? Mine's definitely 5-8. There's just so much going on and it's so clever to have stuff fire green bullets AND being able to get rid of them in strategic ways with the horizontal/vertical shot thingy.

PhoenixG · 2010-03-14, 17:43

Man, your fast @.@

I've only be able to play roughly 1 hour today and able to beat till 4-1 (except 3-4 having a bit trouble with that one).

I really like you be able to swap to portrait. It save you some distant when you going to take the shot.

WanderingKnight · 2010-03-14, 20:14

wtf 3-4

wtf

I have no idea how to do that one. I know there's gotta be an easy way since it's all aimed but wtf.

EDIT: After a check of the spellcard
Move slowly.... It can be dodged liked all the other bullets like the one with Keine in old StB~~~

Note: so it was true, all new scenes. I had doubts at first due to all the new scenes.

WanderingKnight · 2010-03-14, 20:46

I know but every time I do that I just panic at the speed and get walled like an idiot :V

Also even if they spread they're still fast as hell. Anytime I dodge them is mostly because of dumb luck.

Haven't had any major problems with most other spells, only played until stage 4 anyways.

You know what, check this

WanderingKnight · 2010-03-14, 21:32

See, I knew that being aimed there had to be a stupidly easy way of doing it.

EDIT: and I didn't see your previous edit. Now I feel like an idiot :V

The idiotic one is me. I checked DS for the spellcard but had the wrong spellcard in mind, so I gave the wrong advice

. I had problem with that spellcard too. At first I thought about dodging it was like Patchouli's spellcards till I realize it just wasn't quite right ....

Currently on Koishi - Satori Stage, rushing through as I don't have much time meh.

WanderingKnight · 2010-03-14, 22:27

Finally captured 3-4, it's harder than it looks at first but once you get the rhythm straight it's pretty damn easy.
