it looks like Tasofro is releasing some kind of SWR expansion or possibly a new Fighter altogether (the latter i doubt)
only a screenshot is shown atm, with a new HUD design, a new Arena, and a new type of weather
it also says something about comiket 76, so i assume it is released/demoed then (August 15th)

Judge for yourself

they haven't released any other info that i can find. my hopes go with a new playable character(s)

Add on probably. I don't know if they'd actually want to continue having weather trouble in a second game www


Images retaken from my exploration of FFR.net; I know it could VERY WELL be a joke. (56K warning)

Also featuring some very convincing pictures of characters drawn in the same style as IaMP/SWR.

I've had those pictures on my computer for months, so disregard them.

Lol, who is that in the second picture?
Youmu's father or master? Or possibly the male version of Youmu? Or maybe just some really RANDOM person O_o

Not MANoumu, that's for sure. Given the aged appearance he's more than likely to be Youki.

Also: I know this is sinful, but I can't help it. >.<

Will the 2 of you shut up before I have to take action?

No i don't care who started it. No i don't care about any of the circumstances. Just stop.

*sigh* Well, I was planning on never posting in this forum, but because you're making a touhou beatmap, and you go on MoTK, I'll help you. Everyone else can ignore me and this post. It'd be preferable that everyone else ignores this post actually.

1)A replay of you playing would be nice

2)Don't use ReimuA for EoSD Extra. Fantasy Seal is useless on Flandre due to bomb immunity and ReimuA's shot damage sucks, both from far away and while shot gunning. Use either ReimuB or MarisaA. MarisaB is for scoring purposes only(read:Master Sparking the stage), I believe.

3)Royal Flare is a pain in the ass with all shot types except MarisaA, where it's a joke. If you can dodge the first wave, you can capture the card with MarisaA. ReimuB does have a small advantage on Silent Selene and Philosopher's Stone though.

4)Maze of Love will require you to unfocus with Reimu, but with Marisa, you can dodge it focused the whole time, provided you stay close enough(Around Flandre's spell circle during that card). Maze of Love just requires practice, as it's the same every time.

5)Start close to Patchy on Philosopher's. This is useful, because it allows you to dodge downwards, which means you stay infront of Patchy longer, and it's generally easier to dodge downwards anyways.

6)Bomb more. You may be dying with bombs. Don't. Proper Bomb Spamming Management is an important skill.

7)All of Flandre's cards are actually trick based, or easy, minus the last two.

But enough talk.Have at you. Watch this replay of me doing a no bomb clear of EoSD Extra...>_>

Too Lazy to reupload the replay file here, so have a link

It should show you the general method of dodging pretty much every spellcard, and how not to die during the stage. You however, probably won't be capturing some of the cards I captured, so I suggest proper bomb "management". Unfortunately, I died on Philosopher's, Maze of Love, and "And then will there be none?", but I should've and could've captured all of them. =V

PS: Hi Doomsday, Cyclone, and whatever Sol/IPD goes by here. I'll trade you guys my touhou skills for your osu skills. =3

Oh hi there.

I never posted my replay of EoSD extra did i?

here we go:

http://replays.gensokyo.org/download.php?id=3819

Mind you, this is my only current clearing of this stage, and i like to figure out on my own how to beat these cards, rather than study other replays



Also, in case you are interested, i've made a touhou map that recently got ranked. More touhou maps to come as well.

I recently found an album which pays heavy homage to SWR's arrangements, and the circle's name (transliterated) is "Kitsune's Music Factory"　（狐の工作室）.

Or is it posted here before?

http://www.youtube.com/results?search_q ... %A4&page=2 for a list of the circle's tunes.

Ok so I can beat IN's Extra stage and capture enough cards (everything but Fujiyama Volcano and Hourai Doll) to reach "Imperishable Shooting."

...But I can't finish PCB on Easy without continuing. What the hell?!

PCB Easy is practically the hardest of the Easy Modes - the gap is close enough that some have mentioned that PCB Easy is Normal Lite. In comparison, Mokou is about the second easiest of the Extra bosses (Suwako is easiest, supposedly), despite the Purple Rings of Death that is her last noncard.

In addition, many of the cards are hard enough that even some Normal and Hard players cannot reliably capture (Rez Butterfly, for example). In fact, many of them are pretty much patternless dodging (e.g. Pentagram Flight E, Guaneri del Gesu).

In comparison, a lot of Mokou's cards are gimmicky (ref. Honest Man's Death, Flaw of Forgiving Shrine), so it's relatively easy to cap seven of them in one go, even if you horribly phail at EX-Keine's cards.

And there's the whole deathbomb timing thing (if you're playing Border Team, you're probably using all of your bombs. In comparison through PCB, you're likely losing 2 or 3 bombs per life).

As for recently, (sorry about this man), I got a no-focus 1cc of PCB Easy, which, while containing a lot of fails (10 misses?), does have some surprising moments, like a cap of Sumizome Perfect Blossom (the penultimate card) and a near-cap of Lost Soul's Village.

If it makes you feel any better, I did the same thing. Really.

Actually EX-Keine's cards are the easiest except Xu Fu's Dimension, which is stupid easy, and I'm using Scarlet Team (I don't like Border Team's really slow movement).

As for PCB, I do fine up until the last stage. Then I die to Yuyuko over and over.

*Blinks*

Damn, I hate EX-Keine's cards. Returning-Bridge Ichijo is the only one I can reliably capture - and that's not even a 100% thing.

I don't think I've failed Next History of Phantasm a single time since I figured out a decent strat in spell practice (where I was previously having only a 20% or so success rate). I could probably time it out now. Past History is slightly more difficult, but I rarely fail it anymore.

One of my other problems with PCB is that I can't decide which character to use. I suck at bombing if I don't use Reimu, but I hate Reimu's move speed.

EDIT: Ok yeah, just timed out Next History of Phantasm on the 2nd try.
EDIT2: Apparently it's NEXT history, not last...

just got to Yuyuko's first spell in PCB hard before continuing.

bah. i was doing well, had 4 spare lives and a stash of bombs when i went into Stage 5, and then it all fell apart when i got to Youmu, and Yuyuko finished me off

For an April Fool's joke, Mitori sure does have an epic theme.

UFO trial ver 0.02a is out.

if ZUN's only just released an update for the trial, progress on the full version must be slow

Or he likes to make us squirm.

In other news, MariAri has an English patch now, and Reimu is effin' hard. Those ofuda home! (They don't really, just seems like it.)

.....Well, but there IS some kind of originality in a Reisen with a different skin tone XD
Also, the Suwako girl herself seemed (kind of) cute?

This is the only remotely good touhou cosplay I've seen.

Those eyes look like stickers.

Contacts, most people have known about them for a while now. Because some people wanted large kawaii desu eyes.

Jesus, I'm like anti-all this stuff and it still made me rage. Seriously, Yo-Gi-Oh?
