3''[=DynaMarisa=] 3D'' is [[DoujinSoft doujin]] ThirdPersonShooter game by Creator/TwilightFrontier. It stars Marisa Kirisame and doing what she does best: [[StuffBlowingUp blowing stuff up]]. ''[=DynaMarisa=] 3D'' is essentially ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' [[JustForFun/XMeetsY meets]] ''VideoGame/EarthDefenseForce'', but it does have some merits of its own to set some gameplay differences from the game it's based on. [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin As the "3D" in the title implies]], the game be played with stereographic 3D visuals if the user's PC uses a video card that supports it.

5The story premise of ''[=DynaMarisa=] 3D'' has Marisa trying to break into the Scarlet Devil Mansion to "borrow" some books from Patchouli Knowledge's library, as usual. However, this would be the day when Marisa's book-borrowing days would be turned up-side down as she is surrounded by heavily-armed fairies and ant-like robots all under Patchouli's command. Under her orders, her army of robots and fairies lets loose with a [[BulletHell barrage]] of [[MoreDakka gunfire]] to teach Marisa a lesson. Humiliated, Marisa flees from the scene but she wasn't giving up without a fight as she swore revenge against Patchouli to take down her legion of {{mooks}} by forming army of faires of her own and arming herself to the teeth with an arsenal of weapons, thus the [[UsefulNotes/KaijuDefenseForce Patchouli Defense Force]] was formed.

7The game was released on May 1st, 2011 for Windows PC during Comic 1☆5. The game later received [[FanTranslation a fan-made English patch]] by the translators of ''[[VideoGame/TouhouLabyrinth Labyrinth of Touhou]]'', which can be downloaded [[http://www.mediafire.com/?lkphvv9z9eiajwm here]] (requires v1.02).

10!![=DynaMarisa=] 3D tropes includes but are not limited to:
11%%* ActionGirl: Marisa. Sakuya, Remilia, Flandre, [[spoiler:and even Patchouli]] also take part in turning MechaMooks into wrecks.
12* AIIsACrapshoot: [[spoiler:Star Patchouli and, by extension, the entire robot army, [[TurnedAgainstTheirMasters goes rogue halfway through the game]].]]
13* ArtificialStupidity: The enemy's pathfinding ability is less than stellar, and they can often be thwarted by a simple staircase. This can be exploited to clear some stages on higher difficulty before you really should be able to.
14%%* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever
15%%* BeamSpam
16%%* BigBad: [[spoiler:Star Patchouli.]]
17* BigCreepyCrawlie: [[KillerRobot killer robotic bugs]].
18* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler:At the game's final stage, Sakuya, Remilia, Flandre, and Patchouli show up to back Marisa up when Star Patchouli pulls a OneWingedAngel.]]
19%%* BottomlessMagazines
20* BroughtDownToNormal: [[spoiler:The Star Patchouli]] presumably exudes a field that prevents the use of magic, putting this trope in effect for the entire Scarlet Devil Mansion.
21* BulletHell: It's a ''Touhou'' game based on ''Earth Defense Force'' after all.
22* DieChairDie: Do you hate seeing that dinning table with that perfectly delicious cake on top of it? [[NukeEm Nuke]] [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill it]].
23* DualBoss: Stage 22 has Marisa pitted against two robo-Patchoulis, one of each type.
24* ExcusePlot: Just so Marisa can lay waste to [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking robot bugs, heavily-armed fairies,]] [[DieChairDie and furniture]].
25* EverythingBreaks: You can gun down giant vases, paintings of a wall, blow-up a marble pillar or two, and they will fall to pieces.
26* FairyCompanion: Marisa and Patchouli have a squadron of fairies to fight alongside them.
27* FriendlyFireproof: Like in the ''Earth Defense Force'' games, your allies can't hurt you, [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential but you can hurt them]].
28%%* FloatingContinent: [[spoiler:Star Patchouli, the game's FinalBoss.]]
29* FlyingSaucer and MookMaker: The Patchouli-esque [[{{Dropship}} spaceships]] [[spoiler:and Star Patchouli]].
30* GirlyRun: As menacing the robotic Patchoulis are, they run as girly as Patchouli.
31* HeartContainer: The Life-Up items (which looks like the [[OneUp 1-Ups]] from ''VideoGame/MegaMari'') can raise Marisa's HP by 2.
32* HumiliationConga: Marisa got it handed to by Patchouli (of all people), [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge and she's not gonna take it lightly]].
33* HumongousMecha: Marisa faces giant Patchouli-esque robots at several different points.
34* IdiosyncraticDifficultyLevels: In ''[=DynaMarisa 3D=]'', you have (from easiest to hellish) Easy, Normal, Hard, [[HarderThanHard Lunatic]], and [[NintendoHard Master]].
35* InfinityMinusOneSword: The Metamorphosis Elixer, a weapon obtained after clearing all 26 stages on Master difficulty, lets the player dispense every weapon in storage. Sounds awesome at first, but once you get to very last weapon in holding, it'll be the ''only'' weapon to use for the remainder of the mission. This mean you'll need high-grade weapons to make good use of it and make sure to save best weapon for last. Even still, the weapon can be quite deadly.
36* InfinityPlusOneSword: Some of the bonus end-game weapons can qualify. Even certain high-level weapons with the right weapon modifiers can be this, too.
37* LittleMissBadass, TokenMiniMoe: Remilia and Flandre, both [[TokenMiniMoe cute]] [[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampire sisters]] packing heat with a sniper rifle and missile launcher respectively.
38%%* LittleMissSnarker: Marisa.
39* LostTechnology: [[spoiler:Patchouli admits to having used an ultra-energy object from the outside world to build the Star Patchouli. Unsurprisingly, [[EvilIsNotAToy it goes rogue]].]]
40* MacrossMissileMassacre: Courtesy of enemy fairies equipped with ammo racks.
41%%* MechaMooks: ''Ho'' boy...
42* MissionControl: Several visor-equipped fairies serve as this for Marisa.
43* MoreDakka: With assault rifles, shotguns, sniper rifles, rocket launchers, missile launchers, automated gun turrets, and grenades, Marisa Kirisame can never have enough dakka, [[VerbalTic ze]]!
44%%* NewGamePlus: In the veins of ''Earth Defense Force'' series.
45* NintendoHard: Take the onslaught that ''Earth Defense Force'' provides, then you add some ''Touhou''-levels of BulletHell and bring the level of sheer chaos up to eleven and you have this game.
46* NotTheFallThatKillsYou: Marisa can jump off a tower several stories above ground, and she can walk it off no problem upon landing.
47* OneManArmy: While the fairies and the Mansion's residents may prove themselves useful, Marisa is ultimately the one who destroys any and all robots in her way. After taking on hordes of them in the penultimate mission, her Mission Control rightfully wonders if she's even human.
48%%* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler:Star Patchouli does this during the final battle.]]
49* PainfullySlowProjectile: Some of the Forbidden Launchers are very slow-moving balls of magical energy.
50* RandomDrops: Unlike the ''Earth Defense Force'' games, weapons dropped from enemies can have one or more weapon modifiers that can alter the statistic strengths of the gun and/or how the weapon behaves.
51* RecurringLocation: Seeing that same humongous foyer in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, that same giant dinning room, the same huge garden, the same underground basement area may cause some déjà vu.
52* RedshirtArmy: The fairy allies that accompany Marisa and the Patchouli Defense Force. On higher difficulties, Marisa's allies don't last long, but can still be handy for distracting enemies long enough for Marisa to thin them out.
53%%* {{Roboteching}}: The Forbidden Launchers.
54* SayMyName: [[spoiler:Marisa screams Patchouli's name when Patchouli performs her (off-screen) HeroicSacrifice at the end of Stage 22.]]
55%%* ShoutOut: ''" PDF! PDF! PDF!"''
56%%* StuffBlowingUp
57* SpritePolygonMix: [[RunningGag As you'd guess by now]], the game itself is 3D, but the items are entirely 2D sprites.
58* TheEndOrIsIt: [[spoiler:The ending of the game reveals that the remains of Star Patchouli are active.]]
59* ThemeNaming: Each of the weapon types represents most of the characters of ''VideoGame/TouhouKoumakyouTheEmbodimentOfScarletDevil''.
60** Yin-Yang Rifles ([[MoreDakka assault rifles]]) -- Reimu Hakurei
61** Edge Guns ({{shotguns|AreJustBetter}}) -- Sakuya Izayoi
62** Five-Elements Cannons ([[GrenadeLauncher rocket launchers]]) -- Patchouli Knowledge
