it's all about simplicity
if you're a game creator or an artist learn from that

game is too hard

I still haven't beat EoSD in easymodo.

>>714418343
you can do it
i believe in you

>ran ran ru

this is true, almost all the touhou games are relatively simple and straight forward say for the gimmick they have (unless its like 18 or something) glory to the CCP

Or.
You could just play fucking Dodonpachi if you wanted the essential danmaku experience.
You know, something that doesn't exist in a vacuum and borrows from shmups, as much as the others borrow from it.
But you don't care about shmups, let alone making a vidya thread.

Faggot.

I couldnt 1CC it, little vampire girl too strong

1CCd it on normal a few times, good game

I only ever made it to remilia after using all of my continues

Shmupfags will never tell you how they got destroyed at their own tournaments and booted from the forums.
You lost in 2012 and never recovered since.
Everyone involved agreed that compared to the average arcade shmup Touhou is:
harder
better designed
easier to get into
facilitates learning better
EoSD is the peak of the shmup genre, and you will forever remain just another luddite past his prime

Flunny? Naaaaaaah cirunny

>>714419318
>faggot who only recently found out about Touhou is Harder thinks himself as an epic oldfag
lol
That must be why the average touhoufag(among the ones who play the games in the first place) gets hard filtered by even the easiest arcade shmups.

>>714419731
It would be in your best interest to leave and not embarrass yourself any further

>>714419839
I accept your concession.

>>714419839
What the other anon said.

>>714419889
And this dude actually tried calling me a newfag, jesus fucking christ

>>714418170 (OP)
Th6 has too many projectile types with fuzzy hitboxes. The big donut looking ones don't even slightly resemble where the damage zone is.
I suppose we can say that even Zun learned from Touhou 6 since he fixed the problem in all the future games.

>The big donut looking ones don't even slightly resemble where the damage zone is.
That's intentional, you were supposed to figure out the white part is safe

>>714418170 (OP)
>shit stages and mid-bosses
what's even the point of them >>714419318
>better designed
play cosmo dreamer and like dreamer, they're touhou games if they were designed by someone competent

>>714420749
That's because they are actually CAVE

>>714420923
I know, but touhou fags may want to play them if they see crudely drawn anime girls on the screenshots

>it's better because it incorporates all my favorite design flaws from the shit games I like
Shmupfags have legit brain damage
Just from looking at normal 1cc for 2 minutes I already see
>tons of visual clutter that could've been omitted
>fast aimed projectiles that make you never stop moving
>in fact every attack on stage 1 is aimed, the over reliance on that shit is insane
>spinning projectiles that serve no purpose except distract the player
This isn't even a Touhou-like, it's just a mediocre shmup that disguises itself as one by adding the tranny aesthetic
>touhou means games for trannies, am I right my fellow shmuppers?

>>714421896
>>fast aimed projectiles that make you never stop moving
>>in fact every attack on stage 1 is aimed, the over reliance on that shit is insane
This nigga never played a shmup outside Touhou in his life.

>>714421896
yeah yeah your bait is very creative, let others try actually good games and you can go beat off to your favorite remilia doujin

>>714418343
I did by the skin of my teeth with no lives or bombs left. I'm not even sure I should call it a win. I like playing Touhou games from time to time but good god they're just a little too stressful for me. Always feel like I'm about to have a heart attack by the end of a stage. Impossible Spell Card is the one that's managed to keep my attention the longest just because the scenes are short and I can just pick whichever one I want to git gud at and put it down when I've had enough.

>>714421896
>fast bullets are... le bad!!
No one tell him about Raiden Fighters

>>714422076
If you never beat off to a Remilia doujin you're a lower form of being and don't belong on this website, now scram

>>714418170 (OP)
touhou 8 is the only good touhou game tho
as an STG fan it's the only zun game I can appreciate
the rest are all bad
>>714420749
like dreamer has too much in common with daioujo to be a touhou game

>>714419427
The thumbnail makes Cirno look like a blue Sekibanki.

>>714422492
>touhou 8 is the only good touhou game
Because you're a stupid retard shmup nigger that doesn't like dodging or challenging yourself, and only cares about number go up aka scoring
This is an objectively inferior way to play and you have shit taste

>>714422370
who said I haven't? still prefer cave and treasure shmups thoughbeit

The girls are fiiiiiiiiiiighting

>>714422770
number go up, I'm happy
my dopamine only comes from bullets on screen, flashy effects and numbers going up
that said great fairy wars gave me a lot of fap material, shame the game is so bad tho

>>714422793
Me, you type like someone who joined 2 years ago and your shit's all retarded

>>714422770
? Every shmup has dodging and challenge
Do troonhou faggots legitimately think they have a monopoly on that?
Your games also have score autism btw :^)

>>714422915
you got me, my favorite touhou games are actually the amazon-amazon yuuka games

>>714422909
And this is the type of person that barges into Touhou threads and starts talking shit about game design
Says it all really

>>714423227
what else is there to do in games where bullet speed goes at retard per second lol
you're talking like every troonhu boss fight is hibachi
spoilers: lol, lmao even
now if youll excuse me Ill go jerk off to yassy's clownpiece doujins again
play real shooters btw

>>714423441

Wow, a Touhou thread managed to exist for two hours without the shitty general hijacking it. Must be some kind of record.

I've been here

Hey guys what's up
