''Pink Rose Garden Touhou'' is a {{Bullet Hell}} ShootEmUp, made in 2012 by followers and friends of Let's Player LetsPlay/PinkKittyRose. The game is a collective effort of the members of her now-defunct forums. As the name suggests, the gameplay is inspired by the Franchise/TouhouProject series. It also has an alternate mode, called Extra Mode, with gameplay mostly inspired from VideoGame/{{Akai Katana}} and the VideoGame/DonPachi franchise.

The game lets you play as Pink or her friend Black Raiden, as they attempt to quell some sort of rebellion. [[ExcusePlot It's pretty vague,]] and the game overall doesn't take itself seriously. Extra Mode goes a step further in that it has no plot or dialogue to speak of.

The game can be downloaded [[https://www.dropbox.com/s/vtyzp3h3ozcgaq3/Pink%20Rose%20Garden%20Touhou.zip?dl=0 here]].

!! Pink Rose Garden Touhou contains examples of:
* AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield: Some spellcards will change the background to something much more colourful. The boss battle in the final stage, however, really takes the cake.
* AuthorAvatar: Every character [[spoiler:save the TrueFinalBoss]] are the avatars of members from Pink's forum. In particular, the {{Big Bad}} is [=Giest118=], one of the forums' moderators and also developer of the game, who in the game goes by the a female avatar, Nevaeh. [[LampshadeHanging This actually confuses the heroine when they confront each other, since Giest is a male but appears to be female.]]
* BloodKnight: The Stage 4 bosses are fighting before you see them, and approaching them just turns their attention on you.
* DeadpanSnarker: Pink knows EXACTLY how ridiculous everything is, and doesn't hold back on the snarks and [[LampshadeHanging lampshades.]]
* DualBoss: Voyd and Hazzard in Stage 4, as they were previously fighting each other before the player character confronts them. The two share a health bar, and as such, it doesn't matter which of the two are targeted.
* FreudianExcuse: One of the most amazing ever. The reason behind the rebellion is [[spoiler: because Pink wouldn't pay the moderators with money or bacon sandwiches.]]
* FungusHumongous: The third boss, 128-Up, uses gigantic [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Poison Mushrooms]] in one of his spellcards.
* GenreShift: The main game mode mechanics play similar to any conventional Franchise/TouhouProject game, with bosses using Spellcards. Extra Mode isn't that different as far as the stages are concerned, but the mechanics are completetly different and more akin to VideoGame/{{Akai Katana}}, not to mention every boss now has HumongousMecha or something similar.
%%* {{Mordor}}: Stage 4. Apparently, this is from the bosses sparring.
* MultipleEndings: Like in any Touhou game, the main game has two endings for each character, depending on your performance in gameplay.
* NoFourthWall: The player characters and most bosses are aware that they are in a game, what kind of game it is and aren't shy to mention it.
* ThePowerOfRock: Stage 4. Both the stage AND boss tracks are metal, and Hazzard EX's mecha is a gigantic guitar.
* ShoutOut: Considering that everybody behind the game is a nerd, there are plenty.
** Stage 3 is entirely inspired by a Franchise/{{Mario}} castle, right down to the Boss.
** In the main game, every boss has "Inspired Danmaku" as their final spellcard and each is taken directly from a spellcard from a Touhou character.
** When playing as Raiden, the Stage 4 midboss, George the Raccoon, makes a rather blunt ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' reference.
** In Extra Mode, Voyd is riding [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Lagann.]] and final form of the last boss rides in a [[VideoGame/DonPachi giant mechanical bee]].
** The introduction to the Extra mode stage 6 boss is pretty much a blatant copy of ''VideoGame/CrimzonClover's'' stage 5 boss. Furthermore, the way it explodes halfway through the fight and changes the music is entirely reminiscent of ''[[VideoGame/DonPachi DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou's]]'' final boss.
** The stage 5 midboss, Renzokuken Lionheart, says that he is guarding a [[LetsPlay/HCBailly "seeeecret passage"]]. The reference is completely lost on Pink.
** The stage 5 boss, LetsPlay/RoahmMythril, has as his second spellcard 'Borrowed weapon "[[VideoGame/MegaMan9 Jewel Satellite]]"'. His third spellcard is 'Difficulty sign "[[VideoGame/SilentHill1 Air Screamer]] Parade"'.
** It's rather common to see [[VideoGame/MegaMan helimets]]. UFO Kirby also makes a few appearances in stage 4, and the stage 6 midboss, [=KKSlix=], is a [[VideoGame/MegaMan Telly]].
** The use of Armored Armadillo's theme in stage 1 is a possible nod to Shagg's "Roahm Will Never Play Mega Man X" video, in which he put lyrics over it.
** The stage 3 boss in Extra mode is actually a nod to ''VisualNovel/KatawaShoujo'' of all things, though one could be forgiven for missing it. After his first phase, every subsequent phase [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience changes his mech's color]] to match one of the leading ladies from Katawa Shoujo, and the bullet patterns are inspired either by their personality or disability.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Apparently, everybody wants sandwiches. Except Raiden. She likes [[SweetTooth chocolate.]]
* TrueFinalBoss: If you made it from beginning to the end of the game without using a single continue, right after the final boss is defeated, Uncle John, the Pink Rose Garden's collective OriginalCharacter, appears. This applies in Extra Mode as well.
** HumanoidAbomination: Jury's out on what he is, but human he ain't.
** HotWings: Uncle John's first form in Extra Mode.
** TheSpeechless: The only character in the game without any lines.
%% ** FaceFramedInShadow
* WakeUpCallBoss: As typical for Touhou games, [[FourIsDeath Stage 4]] reminds you that this is a bullet HELL game. Voyd and Hazzard will cost you at least one continue if you're not ready for them.
