My question for today...

Well.. In IN, there are the typical Power and Points and these Time Orbs;
But what are those blue and transparent orbs? What's the meaning behind them?

Yes, Yes I would. Assuming she doesn't try to freeze me. -_-'

About those transparent orbs.. I'm not sure but I think they help increase your maximum score when you get the point orbs. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Ah.. a small update.

Mods, feel free to merge this post with the previous one if needed.


SWF will not be released during C73(Comiket), as stated by the folks who made the game.

Though at least I hope they give us a new trailer so we can discuss it untill it is released..

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Love the first one. Zun zun zun!!!

Haven't seen the 2nd one though.. looks cute. :3

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Woot. ^o_o^

Time to go get em..

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well, not over a day and the new album is already being distributed all over the intranet. >.>

http://www.moelicious.be//bt/torrent...hi.rar.torrent

Well, whoever uploaded these torrents are hella quick.

I pray that its not a fake file..

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

My personal favorite is Alstromeria's Dolls. :3 And the specific artist in that album " Misato".

FELIPE NO

Meh, I don't worry too much about the lossless quality. As so long as it doesnt start sounding like scratches. Thanks again for the file though.

Edit: The UN Owen in this IOSYS Album kicked ass.

As for dojin news..

Patch-con!!

You are patchouli, controlling units to defend your books from being stolen. Via cute SD style.

it is a touhou RTS, a rather simple one but never the less fun game.

YouTube Video

DDL link: PatchCon.rar

I found it to be really easy. >>'

The controls are really simple, control with a mouse like a standard RTS game.


Gameplay:

Like other RTS games you can "upgrade" your units by using money, earn by killing enemies. And each unit on the battlefield will increase the cost of upgrading for that unit group. Units are ranked by strength by left to right, left being standard foot units, and right being somewhat more specialized units. You'll find out soon enough when you play.


The "powers" aka Spell cards are as order left to right:

1. Magic attack which reduces all enemy hp by 1/2
2. Reduces the Soldier resurrection time
3. This allows you to move faster for all unit.
4. Prevents your "books" from being stolen.
5. Not sure what this one does, but I think it increases your units defenses.

Enjoy.


And more good news!! It keeps on rolling!!!!

TOUHOU ANIME!! Well a small movie but I'm still very happy.

In case some of you don't know, this is done by Sound Holic that did that small touhou anime teaser as for their album, but apparently became a full fledged movie.

You can still find the anime on tokyotosho.com

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I haven't had much of a chance to listen to a lot of it, but I did listen to the new album "HARMONY" from Alstroemeria Records. It's "ok", the only song I really like on it is Dark Road. It's mixed from Stage 2 MoF and Cirno's theme. Patchucon also looks really interesting, and I'll check that out very soon.

I didn't find Alstromeria Records very interesting this time. D: Meh, must not be my tastes today.

Also I didn't know you were a mod on Shrinemaiden.org. >.> I go by Maryn on that forums.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Apparently there was also a UI-70 album released at this Comiket, but it hasn't been uploaded to share. I'd really like to hear it since UI-70 make really good touhou arranges. I'll check out Demetori and Golden City Factory stuff tonight.

Actually come to think of it, if anyone wants me to upload the Alstroemeria Records album "Blue Note" in FLAC, I can, because it arrived a few days ago. I'm also expecting a few other Alstroemeria albums in the mail from Japan.

I'm not too big of a fan of UI-70's works. But I do however favor China's theme they did though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The demos are amazing 0-0

though a pity there aren't too many albums showing up with Touhou Fuujinroku ~ Mountain of Faith arranges.

There are quite a few out there, but they're among other touhou arranges as well. but as for MoF arranges only, I havent found one yet.

@elixir

D:< Keep at it. I wanna see no death, no bomb, focus runs from you soon. Think you can pull off the next GIL?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I always die right before capturing that card...

Also.. touhou has been made into badass now.. Not sure if its part of April's Fools.

YouTube Video

Watch and be awed.

@Slayer

Sure.. why not?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Apparently it is fake.



Translation:
"This video is not available on the count of the april fool's day. We will be back online with the contents soon. P.S. There is no new touhou game. Happy April Fool's Day. Suko!!"

Damn, that was a bad round.. a really bad one.. That's what I'll get after a month of not playing PCB. Maybe it's just a bad day - the 7th one in a row - cannot even play guitar properly - My hands feel like they're gum!

I'm useless. (I even knew the solution beforehand but wasn't sure ... for whatever reason)

Most likely, I severely lack practice. Hell I get off of EoSD for a day, I get pwned by Sarno on Normal..

FELIPE NO

Back to the Wriggle LastWord:
I'm attaching both replays here =D for reference - It's actually not that hard and there is even a chance of surviving if you just stay at one place without moving for the whole time

The first replay is the hard way of capturing the card - Moving left/right/up/down all the time with a constant movement to the left and one or two "correcting moves" to the right.

It was the first way I tried it...and it took me 215 tries

The second replay - no.15 - is an easier way. By just moving up and down, you won't have to mind the blue and red butterflies.

Sarno=Cirno, (9), Ice fairy, etc.

Also thanks for the replay.

Most amazing jew boots

Is it just me...or... why don't I like it.

The whole Touhou feeling vanished with PoFV I guess. Everything's so muddy fast and in a way.. very strange... Ah, well - At least I've got my PCB.

I was able to clear it ONCE thanks to your replay. Think It was a couple of days back. And yeah, I feel it lost's it's hm.. touch as well.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Tokyo Toshokan :: #tokyotosho @ irc.rizon.net :: Torrent Details

TH11: SA Full version.

The real deal folks!

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I agree with ya. I'm already gaming over on stage 4 normal. Stage 5 was like LOL DODGE THIS, hell the midboss I died from too.. Stage 6.. *shudders* I haven't even seen it yet.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I'm bored.. I might join ya later on. Time to get myself pwned.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yup. I guess people must be exploiting them or something.

FELIPE NO

If you want specifics on which patch did what.. here ya go:

v1.03
Few discoverings during random arcade run with Remilia:
-Remi's 2nd sign spellcards (Spear the Gungnir, Demon lord Craddle, etc...) got their damage slightly increased
-Her 623+b/c is now multi-hit, 3 for B version (and sends enemy upwards) and 4 for C version (sends enemy forward but Remilia will land right next to her/him)

-Yukari now has her SA special ability (warp through walls xD)
-Alice has 2 new attacks (that i saw, but they got cancelled by me shortly after they were casted xD)

-Typhoon weather 'new system', the super-armor is still there, the difference, every hit (melee or bullet) will make the opponent drop red crystals, thus, shortening 'Typhoon' duration (good solution imo, matches tend to last nothing since typhoon was on both rounds xD)

Moar changes: (aKa, things im finding out now)
-Yukari's warp thingy,it is really her SA ability, even the input is the same, go to a corner and press 2 times the corresponding button (4 for left corner, 6 for right lol)
-Suika can no longer charge her 2+A attack (i think they made A attack chargeable instead, dunno)
-Her 'final super atomic buster' spellcard damage was highly increased (from 4ksomething to 6ksomething)
-Sakuya's bouncing knives attack now throws few knives instead
-Her 'soul scuplture-something' spellcard damage was increased (now its worthy to have the 4 copys of it xD)

-Tenshi's earthquake spellcard damage was increased (and a lot it seems), also, her 421+b/c is faster now

Most of it seems to be just tweaking really. I got this info from a buddy on another forum I frequent. Give thanks to him. My Apologies for the wall of text, if you guys like I can put them in spoilers for you. And I'm hardly skilled. I just tend to notice things.. >.>

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Overall I would say it wouldn't affect your play much at all really. I sure as hell didn't notice in mine. And sorry about the untranslated bits, though I kinda thought you would know what moves those would be if you played that character.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

If by now you haven't got the newest touhou demo. Get it now. Also those that have played it. What do you think of it?

How ya doing, buddy?
