Touhou 12.9 - Brain Cell Annihilation SCREENSHOTS

LAST EDIT: February 2nd, 2011

Just recently made some screenshots for the game. Making Hard difficulty is... hard.

Screenshot 1: Four spinning cats and a teddy bear


Screenshot 2: There's unnecessary stuff ON THE WALL


Screenshot 3: What he said, "look at him."


Screenshot 4: Remember! Playing with fire is very dangerous! You can get your ass burned if you're not careful!


Screenshot E: Oh Marisa. (Mountain of Faith reference)


Screenshot VI: Your mapping sucks!


Screenshot 7: One of the bosses in Hard difficulty (Chapter 3).


I'll make more screenies another time. All feedback welcome.

Update:  I have also uploaded a video to top that.

What'cha doing next?

In the past few days I've been suggested and/or requested to chart some songs. In the list there are five new songs I would like to try charting. Most of them are above four minutes so it's gonna take a while. Want a clue what the songs are?

Three songs in the list are VOCALOID songs while one of them is yet another Angry German Kid remix. The last one is something I'll keep a secret for a while. When the time comes I'll reveal it in YouTube. Till then...

(And for those wandering, I'm also working on Touhou 12.9 as well but only part-time LOL)

What's this Touhou 12.9 - Brain Cell Annihilation about?

LAST EDIT: 26 Feb, 2011

If you've seen this video, then you're definitely reading the right post where I explain what the f*** is this about.

For the past few months I've been working on a side project called "Touhou 12.9 - Brain Cell Annihilation". This was inspired by some joke, bad, weird, hilarious, or crappy games posted in some RPG Maker forums. Please take note that it was meant to be funny, wrong (in dialogue and mapping), and challenging at the same time. Never played Touhou? Don't play this then.

Touhou 12.9 is an unofficial joke game I made up out of nowhere with RPG Maker VX. I made this up after knowing there was a 12.8th Touhou game (Great Fairy Wars) along with 12.3rd and 12.5th ones as well. Since the next one WILL be the 13th one, I thought I could just come up something crazy while other people could try to guess if there's yet another Touhou game before the 13th.

In every Touhou game, you're given the choice to select the difficulty before starting the game. If you've played Touhou before, you should know the four common difficulties. However in Touhou 12.9, each difficulty contains a different part of the story and are divided into chapters. (Easy is Chapter 1, Normal is Chapter 2, and so on) And unlike the original Touhou series, each difficulty/chapter has its own levels, enemies, bosses, and secrets. Also, like the original series, each difficulty has six stages, and in each stage having a boss. (And in some cases there are mini-bosses as well) Not only do you need to find the strategy to beat the boss, but you also need to grind your party members' level and get the appropriate equipment and/or item(s). The only good thing here is that you get to save your progress after winning every boss fight. (Mini-bosses don't count, and it's also obvious that Stage 6 will lead to an ending rather than progressing on.)

Story:

A radiating light shines brightly from the forest south of the Youkai Mountain. Reimu thought of checking it out but decided to request Marisa for help to see what's going on. As they head to the place where the source of the light came from, they encounter many strange things...

Playable Characters (as of in version 0.8):

Reimu - The shrine maiden in the red-white. She is lazy most of the time and will be curious at other times about strange events that occur in Gensokyo. A well-balanced party member.

Marisa - The oriental western magician in the yellow. She lives in a house in the Forest of Magic and does research most of the time. If she sees something unknown, she'll take it with her back to the house for investigation. An offensive spell caster.

Patchouli - The purple librarian of Voile, hidden in the depths of the Scralet Devil Mansion. It's still a mystery of what she actually does in her daily life. (Well, except for Aya...) An elemental spell caster.

TEDDEE (simply pronounced Teddy) - A cute teddy bear possessed by a badass spirit that swears a lot. A powerful fighter. (He attacks enemies without your command.)

Cloud Strife - Born in Nibelhelm and was poisoned with Meko cells. How he ended up here is a mystery. Another powerful fighter. (His Attack is better than Spells, basically because of his high critical ratio)

Sakuya - The maid of the Scralet Devil Mansion. Very loyal to the Scarlet Sisters. Also keeps knives in her spare pockets so watch out. Yet another offensive spell caster, but with a support spell card.
Avnas - Unknown bio and details. Unknown contribution to party. (Attacking is her main offense, her Skills are mostly supportive rather than offense, also allows double-weapon equip)


Battle System:

This uses the default RPG Maker VX battle system. Don't know what that is?
If no, just watch the video I posted above. It's that easy.

Progress:

Version 0.8 is the latest one, with a total of three chapters to complete. For the moment it's on hold. I might continue if I receive enough feedback though. You can download this game from my MediaFire account. You can also find the links from the description of the video I linked to before.

All feedback, suggestions, and criticism welcome. Also, you have lost 4 points of IQ reading this sentence.

Last Words:
This game can literally own you if you're not careful, especially in Chapter 2 onwards. It can take a few tries to get it right. Well, this is Touhou after all.

You can find some screenshots of the game here.

First Post

Hello there. Welcome to my blog. I decided to create one since others already has one and it's way better than posting in YouTube whenever I have some updates to share.

Here you can expect a few updates every month or two so be sure to check once every week to know what's going on.

So anyway while I'm at it here, I'll post all the O2Jam charts I've finished. The list will be updated and reposted every two months (or three if I'm very busy).
