Someone should really clean up the OP next time.


Every day without news of iMalice or Blue Revolver makes my depression worse.

Still want to know if RayStorm HD is worth $15

Other 360 shmups I'm looking at:
>Raiden Fighters Aces
>Mushihimesama Futari
>Otomedius Excellent

>>145488892
I don't know about RayStorm, but Raiden Fighters Aces is grade A greatness, and Mushi Futari is one of my favorite Cave games. Otemedius isn't that great unfortunately, but if you adore horis (especially Gradius) it might be worth a pickup.

2 things.

1: Is this actually kraut-kun, or an anon being epic and pretending.
2: Audio is balanced very strangely, it's almost like trying to listen to it through blown-out speakers, which is a real shame for a game with such a great soundtrack.

>>145495653
I know, I just worded it really badly because I wasn't sure what I should call them.

>1: Is this actually kraut-kun, or an anon being epic and pretending.
Yes, I believe so.

>2: Audio is balanced very strangely, it's almost like trying to listen to it through blown-out speakers, which is a real shame for a game with such a great soundtrack.
Sorry about that. I noticed this too, after I finished recording. For some reason the audio-volume of the game was extremely high, I don't have that problem with Shmupmame 4.2 so there might be some setting in Shmupmame 2.2 somewhere which is screwing it up.

I had to force down the volume in Sony Vegas because the original was ear-rape.

>>145496909
>I know, I just worded it really badly because I wasn't sure what I should call them.
The impression I get from calling them additional bosses is that it feels like you're saying they're TLBs.

>>145505939
Yeah, that's the balancing act. There are some cases where it's totally worth it. Emulating Radiant Silvergun is such a huge fucking pain in the ass, plus the only good Saturn emulator has fairly bad input lag, and the XBLA version has extra features. Same with RayStorm HD, which apparently has extra ships, so I'll probably pick it up. Raiden Fighters Aces...I dunno, I could just emulate it. etc etc

>>145513882
>Not familiar with Mushihimesama scoring mechanics
The basics of it are similar to DDP, in that it's based on dealing damage to enemies consistently across the entire level. The difference is that Mushi has its weird and wonderful child and parent counters that act weirdly depending on how you're pressing the shot buttons, but don't worry about that yet.

It looks like Leinyan does, under the name "Ray'n", but I don't think Shotia or Exy do. Unfortunately, since I don't have Leinyan's card myself, I don't have access to her profile. I guess there's always a chance that a screenshot of the profile is floating around on the internet somewhere, but who knows.

I'll do A.I's profile, though.

>>145520824
They're from Cave's iOS/Android game, Gothic wa Mahou Otome.

Ray'n is Leinyan from DFK, so Shooty and Next EXY might be in there as well.

>What is Maniac max, by the way? I forgot to ask.
In 1.5, while you're picking your shot type there will be 6 options. The ones on the left are normal, the ones on the right a "MAX". MAX means that you start at full power, and enemies shoot much more/faster bullets.

>>145562978
No, it's not. A Gradius fan is someone who plays Gradius and a DoDonPachi fan is someone who plays DoDonPachi, but a Touhou "fan" may or not play Touhou because the vast majority of Touhou "fans" are too preoccupied with consuming fanmade materials to play the official games. Other series/games don't have this problem; you don't see people that talk about what their favorite R-Type H-doujin is but don't know what a 1CC is.

>>145563079
It's some indie game. I doubt it's japanese.

>>145563538
>Other series/games don't have this problem
Yeah. Because those games simply don't have the amount of material like 2hu.

>>145563538
The Secret Lover is my favorite mushihimesama AV

>>145563538
You do not have to play Gradius to be a fan of it. Most people who like Gradius barely even played the games. Look on steam reviews for shmups for example. 99% of positive reviews there barely played the game for 2 hours.

Touhou are just games which have a lot of fanmade stuff, that's why they are an exception, in the end it doesn't really matter, since other fanbases are not much better too.

95% will always be fucking casuals who have no idea, no matter the game.

>>145563818
That's what I'm saying.

>>145563771
If it is made by a westerner, then it looks surprisingly good for this.

The Touhou fanbase is so bizarre to me. It's so completely, almost wilfully disconnected from the source material it might as well be about absolutely anything else.

>>145559873
>Isn't the community, like, amazing?
Nah it's easily the worst community i've ever been a part of but I think video games in general are a magnet for a particular type of hedonism indulging beta seeking a sense of control over there otherwise limited lifestyle, I believe this is why farm for example is run like a totalitarian safe space that sacrifices free speech for control and a dominant narrative and why nerdlings in general are the biggest whiny self proclaimed victims of a society that hasn't accepted them whilst being the most obnoxious close minded judgement lacking any real life experience bunch of cunts imaginable. I just want to meet players who simply enjoy the game they are dedicated to without having to turn it into some desperate identity defining thing to fill the insecure void in their lives.

>>145564601
Every community with lot of fan content has this problem. Not just Touhou.

>>145564824
In the case of the shmup community, it's the Touhou community itself.

>>145564601
I think no honest Touhou player would disrespect the community AT LARGE because it produces all that Touhou hentai that is the lifeblood of anyone who scores!

Do the lock-ons of the other ships in CCWI do more damage per shot than Type I?
I feel if the lock-ons actually would do some decent damage, this would make scoring for me a lot easier.

Can't really blame him, given the elitist attitudes that many shmup players seem to have.

>>145625128
It's been so long since I played Imperishable Night, but I think the time system works like this: You need to meet the Time requirement listed for a stage to save on time. If you meet the requirement, you face the boss's Last spell (purely a bonus) and time only advances by 30 minutes. If you don't meet the requirement, time advances by one hour.

Getting time points isn't too hard. The easiest way is to stay unfocused whenever possible. When the meter in the bottom corner is 100% on the Human (blue) side, you'll get time points whenever you're shooting something. For Youmu I think the meter only goes up to 50% but same effect.

You can also get time points when the meter is 100% on the Youkai (red/pink) side, but in that case you'd only get time points when using focus and grazing. It's less beneficial than getting it from the Human side I think.

If you don't know how the meter works, if I remember right, it just gradually drifts towards the Human side when you're firing unfocused, and towards the Youkai side when you're firing focused. It also gets a massive boost at the end of a boss's spell card. So say you're using focus shot and finish a spell card 100% on the Youkai side, if you quickly release focus and fire unfocused then the meter will shoot far into the Human side.

Lastly, dying will tank your time points, so ideally you want to not die. I think bombing might also incur a time point penalty but not as badly as dying.

I hope this explanation made sense. I'm kind of explaining it from memory from several years ago. Really I recommend utilizing practice mode and spell practice to get better at the game itself so that you don't have to worry so much about the time points (if you don't use any continues at all, you don't have to worry about meeting any time requirements in order to see the ending).

>>145626185
Thanks, it's really just the fight against Marisa (or Reimu especially) that gets me. Very little space to move around and you have to keep moving. The worst thing is that the harder spellcards I do well on with practice mode because of how easy it is to spot the pattern, but I somehow fuck up when it comes to the real deal.

This isn't entirely correct. You only get time points for grazing while 100% youkai AND in a boss fight.

>Getting time points isn't too hard. The easiest way is to stay unfocused whenever possible.
this is only half true, and is something that bothers me whenever someone that doesn't know the game very well plays a casual scoring credit. One of your most important sources for time are familiar cancels during the stages and when you unfocus you break all the familiars without getting a cancel, which often ends up being worse than just killing the host of the familiars even without proper canceltiming.

That being said, the time doesn't matter for a 1cc anyways

Heat:
Displays your Mecha's attack level.
The number of Shields you start with when respawning is decided by this value.
Heat is affected by Rank (see "Rank" under Game System for more details) among other factors.

Alright, but something about it seems inconsistent. I've been both heat 3 and 5 when at rank 60, and at heat 3 i hadn't been hit for 3 stages in a row, heat 5 came half a stage after a terrible boss fight.

I know I just need more time in the game, but as it stands I'm confounded by that one mechanic.

>>145656890
I just copy pasted from the manual, that's all the info there is.

>>145656890
Rank:
The Rank level affects your Mecha's strength, the speed of the game,
the arrangement of the enemy formations, the intensity of enemy attacks, and more in real time.
In turn, Rank plays a factor in determining Heat by increasing it every 100 levels.
Heat will also increase by 1 whenever you have no remaining Bombs, no remaining Shields,
no remaining lives, or more than 500 time.

Don't listen to this guy, he's lying.

I have Deathsmiles on Steam, but there's like 6 different versions of the game in it. Which one should I play?
I'm usually going for Original in every SHMUP but I don't know if it's even relevant anymore when revised versions are available too.

Same thing with Mushihimesama.

>>145662596
>Play whatever you feel like playing.
The thing is, once you played a game for score and tried to "Go All The Way", you develope some kind of standart where don't want to just do kuso playthroughs anymore, but actually play as good as you can, no matter the game. So when I play a new game, I always try to do my best, but to finish games like this takes so much fucking time.

How would it play? Would all the CRS bosses turn into PRAYERS?

>>145667175
Well, the original arcade games are in Deathsmiles. So it makes sense that those would be the most relevant. I was just wondering which one of them all is recommended for someone trying to get into it.

With Mushihimesama it's a even less obvious. It has Original, Arrange and 1.5 versions I think.

I usually go for chronological sequence with anything, but when another version is the same game except better and more balanced, I guess there's no point.

>>145665758
It's all about the time you invest.
Whenever I play something other than my main game I usually try to learn scoring tricks too, but it's mostly just a temporary distraction.

>>145665758
Think long term and not with the must do it now mentality, an hour a day is plenty if you stick to a game for ages for example. To many player tend to go all gun blazing and burn out quickly.

>>145668015
deathsmiles MBL 1.1 is easily the most fun imo.

Already have 100 hours in CCWI and still constantly die in fucking stage 2. Playing this game for score is not fun at all.
