Touhou

She's also Youka in the manual and Eika in the Music Room.

But she's always Ebisu because that's her surname.

So it's Ten Desires all over again? That game was notoriously stingy with resources as well.

Nah, I just sucked. Now that I've played it several times, I got like 2 full lives on the demo. About the standard amount.

Ebisu and Komachi

Urumi and Kutaka

Finally takin' the time to look at/listen to the New Touhou Game!

The Title Screen Music is horrendously whack, I felt as if my headphones broke O_O

The Animal Heads are super wacky-lookin', very comical.

Stage 1 Theme is nice and atmospheric!

Stage 1 Boss, Dead Baby Joke Girl: her fight was over so quickly in the video I watched, I didn't get enough time to listen to it at all So I listened to it seperately, and I really like it! Has cool quirky parts, and also very ominous parts. I certainly prefer it to the many forgettable Stage 1 Boss Themes, like Letty's or Moon Bunny #1's.

Stage 2 Theme: nothing. It was just there, just plinkin' along.

Stage 2 Boss, Cow Girl. ...interestingly weird...? But not at all what I'm lookin' for in a Boss Theme. (Also, her sprite is really nice!)

Stage 3 Theme: ...no. (Also, at this point I realized how annoying the constant beeping sound of the animal heads changing was)

Stage 3 Boss Theme, Wild Chicken God Girl aka GOAT, The Best and Instant Favorite of Mine, Our Lord and Saviour. Finally some ENERGY! Still not.. exactly what I love, but it's vey fun. (Also, one YT commenter shattered my world when pointing out that the red Thing on her head was just red-dyed hair, not the bird's nest I had assumed )

The stage 3 boss theme is my least favorite theme in the game, its so cluttered and noisy and awful.

Same here. Too bad, because "Seraphic Chicken" is an awesome name

For Ten Desires maybe. I remember being able to routinely have 5 or 6 lives in total by the end of Stage 3 on everything prior to TD. (SA gave you just barely 5 lives by the time Yuugi was beaten.)

I meant I obtained 2 lives when playing, for a total of 5 lives at the end of the trial.

Kikeijuu, Kyouko, Dolls in Pseudo Paradise

My strategy of not getting into roaring mode until the harder parts of the stages had mixed results, turns out dodging both the bullets and the items is significantly harder than just dodging the bullets, though in the end I did succeed. Also I learned that items do actually go away (they turn grey and don't bounce off the lower half of the screen), I'm not sure if it's a time limit or an item limit or what.

Also for some reason I'm finding it hard not to stop dying while having bombs in stock. (Well, one reason is enlarging bullets.)

The madman went for the lunatic difficulty version of the song. I'm surprised that he was able to finish this cover at all.

The head of a monkey, the tail of a snake, and the legs of a tiger, Seiga, 🐂

Blimey, time to catch up on the thread!

That's awesome to hear! Should provide lots of fun and insight readin' all the different routes!

Hahaha

My Gods, that makes remembering the names even more impossible; let's hope we'll get a definitive answer on Dead Baby Girl's first name in the Full Game. (Speaking of the Full Game, ZUN will probably fix the word "goast", like he did with Eternity. Kinda sad about it, at least Enlong and me really love the spelling and the potential for Full Life Consequences memes it brings ...)

OUR WINGED DEITY'S WRATH SHALL CONSUME YOU, HEATHEN

No, but seriously , I respectfully disagree. The Title Theme is a nightmare and the Stage 2 and 3 Themes are non-existent. CHICKEN GODDESS'S Theme, while certainly nothing special, at least makes me happy when I hear it, and it's got energy. (However, always keep in mind that I'm the most not-knowing-dick-about-music person in the world, my music opinions are super-subjective garbage)

Dude, I like dubstep and smooth jazz and I'm a music major. Your opinions are no less valid than mine.

All is well! (Smooth Jazz is great!)

...errhhhh, to bring it back to Touhou, when watchin' several videos of the Demo, I noticed that Cow Girl, in her sprite, is really disturbingly lovingly swaying her "baby" back and forth. Was weird

Anybody here has heard about Reisen song... How is it? I think it's pretty great

Kind of reminds me of a character from Yaiba manga by Gosho Aoyama

...you're gonna have to be a little more specific than that.
