Funny game
Too bad I really suck at games like that.
Didn't get any further than a 5000 points in 7 tries XD

Which one are you guys playing? Completed all five now. I feel like I've wasted a good amount of time on that today.

lol, that shmup is nothing once you've played something like this.

Spoiler: show
I'll admit the bit with the inverted keyboard controls still through me for a loop and cost me several lives/power levels/whatever.

Ah, yes, once you've played Touhou, other shmups seem like a joke. ;^_^

(Is it bad that my first thought upon watching that video was "Hey, I know that person! :O" and my second was "...That doesn't look very hard at all. :T"?)

Yeah, I was going to comment on all of them, but I wasn't sure on the names for a lot of them.

The final boss for the platformer gave me some issues until I figured out how to dodge the slashing attack. The one with the stretching legs was interesting, and it took me a while to get used to it. Other than that they were all pretty easy.

How is that fight stage six? On Normal? The fight wasn't that impressive (a lot of the patterns seemed re-used from Yuyuko, Remilia, Sakuya) but for an ordinary stage boss, that's kind of outrageous.

Stage 6 boss fights are generally that difficult though, no? Remilia is notorious for being one of the hardest Touhou bosses ever (or so I have heard, which comforts me since she's the only obstacle between me and beating EoSD ). Kaguya, vice-versa, is infamous for supposedly not living up to the difficulty expected of a Stage 6 boss, instead being easier than either Eirin (Stage 5) or Mokou (EX Stage). Granted, you'd expect Mokou to be harder, but Eirin!? I still haven't played 8 yet though so I dunno.

Kanako is the only Stage 6 boss I've ever beaten. Not 1cc'd, unfortunately, though MoF is the closest I have come to 1cc'ing a Touhou game on Normal. But of the other games I've played ...
  • 6: get to Remilia's second-to-last or final spell card before dying and running out of continues -.-;
  • 7: still haven't tackled
  • 8: still haven't tackled
  • 9: got really far, wasn't dying, the game was so bizarro I wasn't even sure if it'd ever end, so I said "Forget this " and quit despite having quite a few lives left.
  • 10: have beaten on Normal, have gotten pretty far (Stage 4, I think?) on Hard, but never 1cc'd
  • 11: have only gotten to Stage 4 on Normal
  • 12: have only gotten to Stage 4 on Normal
  • 13: haven't even played since, after installing it, I got so depressed at how ugly it looks on my computer compared with on my friend's MacBook Pro
So I dunno. I'll agree that Kanako isn't easy (or at least not for me, a non-god at these games), but she's also the only one I've managed to beat and see a game ending for (even if it was a bad end ).

I really feel like a loser now
I died in pretty much all of these games and gave up trying XD

And touhou is sick, I'm not even going to START trying that

Remilia isn't a Stage 6 boss IIRC, she's stage 10, as is Yuyuko. Hong Meiling is the EotSD stage 6 boss and she's a pushover compared to what I just saw.

You're very confused. ^^; I suggest you check the Touhou wiki. EoSD only has six stages plus one extra stage. The same is true of all the Windows-era games other than 9 which is just plain weird. Meiling is the Stage 3 boss of EoSD, not the Stage 6 boss. And Remilia is that very Stage 6 boss. Kanako, likewise, is a Stage 6 boss, meaning she's the final boss of her game not counting the extra stage boss, Suwako. [/off-topicness continues! Sorry, Kuno. ^^;]

So on Friday, I'm thinking about pulling an all-nighter to finish Majora's Mask, and probably streaming it. Providing technology doesn't fail me, I think it's a possibility.

Shouldn't you do this Thursday? In case the world ends on 12:00 A.M. Friday?

Yes, I think there is a time for it, but I honestly don't remember.

I've played the game myself. This awesome game almost makes me want to buy old spice. Too bad I don't like the way it smells.

Still, why does it make the guy automatically jump to the 5th week game when you start the game? I'm sure that's why everyone played that game first.

EDIT: Also, the guy's bullets in the 5th game are the same as PC98 Marisa.

Probably because it's been up for a while and we're now on the fifth week of them adding a new one every week. It just jumps to the new addition, I imagine.

I don't see why you think we were too dumb to figure that out the moment we all first loaded the game. It's just that no one bothered to check out the other games: not for lack of knowledge that they existed, but for lack of desire to check 'em out. You didn't exactly sell 'em, cap. The only reason I even loaded it up was because Doppel mentioned Touhou. Still wouldn't have clicked otherwise.

Also, the game seems to be exploiting this African man's inability to speak English naturally for our shits and giggles, and I dunno how that sits with me. Yeah, it's funny to hear him say "maymays" for memes and to hear him completely fuck up the pacing and emphasis when he says a sentence like "You're the only talking bear friend I have!", but like, it makes me uncomfortable that they just did one recording with the guy, didn't coach him at all, didn't correct his mistakes and re-record, just figured "This is comedy gold " and ran with it. So there's that.

Which game would you want us to check out?

It was directed towards Loki and Amras since it seems they just checked the one game out and left it at that.
