+ Show Spoiler + didn't expect yuyuko and tatara kogasa to be inside(remember UFO's 2nd boss?) theres 2 new characters at least, including a zombie and some weird girl(can't place her character since i can't read jap@_@) I don't know whether you guys liked the music or not but its starting to grow on me, it seems to be pretty dark though. th13 seems to be about death and related stuff..? | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Oh shi Yuyuko Youmu with a special charge attack reminiscent of PoFV Hm not exactly sure on gameplay, but seems like when you kill stuff, there are soul like things that you can collect. I'm guessing the blue ones are just point items, pink ones add to you life meter, and green ones, to your bomb meter. But the black ones seem to add to the I guess I'll call it death meter. And you get like skull things on the bottom left of your screen. Seems like when you die, you use up the death meter, and am given immunity for however long seconds in an alternative dimension, where you can still attack. But you still lose a life though. Hm as for the songs, I only really liked the first song But I really liked the first stage in general as well. Made me want to buy the game when it comes out, but I was a bit disappointed with the other stages | ||

Compared to the other games, you seem to get almost none :< yeah. the pink souls are pretty rare, and you need to take a few to at least get an extra life. but its probably to offset the "last will" thing if not it would be too easy for a game,even though zun said he made the game easier so that it would encourage more people to play | ||

The character art is growing on me, and the backgrounds are drop dead gorgeous. Possibly the best I've seen yet. All the shot types are unique and fun, and the death system to get maximum points is just sadistic but overall great :D. I like Zun's compromise, Easy and Normal is manageable for newcomers now (especially easy), but Hard and Lunatic are actually a challenge ( I played hard, whooooo did it hit me hard XD). I will buy this game as soon as it comes out in the summer. A solid game. | ||

Youmu's charged shot is interesting, great damage but I find the best part about it is the sheer horizontal range it gives you. Hate the 3rd boss though, she can eat the blue souls to regain life. Generally, my friends and I feel the game is about saving up the blue souls and putting out the super mode at the right spell card. Otherwise, game is generally easier than most, it's very easy to 1CC Normal for me even, and I REALLY suck at the shooters. Stage 1 boss might be the toughest of all the stage 1 bosses though... =p | ||

Stage 1 boss might be the toughest of all the stage 1 bosses though... =p Well, I think Zun said he intended for this one to be a little more accessible. It's definitely easier than SA or UFO so far. But this is just the first 3 stages, of course. If you've played MoF on normal, it's like the first 3 stages may as well not exist and then all of a sudden STAGE 4 WTF. On the other hand, this game is hard for me because I want to grab every soul thing I see and just end up killing myself on the easiest danmaku in the process. It also seems like it's a lot harder to get extra lives and bombs than previous games, and it won't let you deathbomb if you have enough soul things to go into the death trance (not sure if that's a bug or intentional?). | ||

To my knowledge, the inability to deathbomb while you have at least one Trance flame is not a bug. We'll know for sure when the full game is released, but according to the Touhou wiki, it's not a bug, but rather an odd mechanic. | ||
