So ZUN just tweeted he's releasing another game at Winter Comiket(29-31 December). No demo this time. Off the top of my head I'd say this is either more photography or "MINOR CHARACTER'S EXCITING ADVENTURE" again.

Kogasa in a MGS-knockoff where the goal is to sneak up on someone through their danmaku and surprise them.

Cirno's not "minor" in the sense that she's not important, but in the sense that, as a fairy, she's maybe two and a half feet tall.

Cirno's a minor character and no tired jokes or beating of dead horses is gonna change that, sorry guys.

Anyway in a stunning return to form the game will be a breakout/arkanoid derivative.

Unfortunately, they used a Marilyn Manson cover of the song, so I took the liberty of redubbing it to the original.

I LOVE this! A Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my all-time favorite movies, and seeing a Touhou homage done so brilliantly close to the original is just wonderful. I especially like Yukari as the Mayor of Halloween Town, it fits so perfectly.

Thanks for linking this! :haw:

That was pretty cool, thanks for sharing/improving the audio.

I can't figure out who Oogie Boogie (the shadow on the Moon) was supposed to be. I couldn't detect the presence of any hats, animal ears, or ribbons and those are every Touhou's identifying features.

I think that's supposed to be Yuuka, one of the first Touhous to be identified by a lack of identifying headgear.

Well darn. Sorry about that. Oh well, shows me how stupid immediately spreading news is. At the very least I wasn't getting my hopes up since I assumed it'd be a small game anyway. Still, nice of ZUN to promote other's games like that.

Hopefully there'll be less incomplete games rushed out for release this Winter. Surprised by the amount of them that had day 1(and 2, and 3,etc...) patches and were completely broken otherwise. I'd say something about development cycles here but I have no idea how these people work anyway.

Doujin circles need to make Comiket/other con releases and they're not exactly rolling in programmers. Of course they have to rush stuff. Most of the time it's not that bad anyways, HM was probably the worst case in quite a while.

Oh, that'd make sense, I must've completely forgotten about her. She's one of the few Touhou who is powerful enough to not need a hat.

No, that's the hit box. The hat is well beyond that in almost all cases.

They're more like the colourful plumage used by birds to attract mates. The more inexplicable and surreal a Touhou's hat is, the more successful they are in love. Those who have already mated may shed the hat at a later date, though they may grow back a vestigial ribbon.

I'm pretty sure it's Yuuka too. It also fits because she's just as horrendously terrible as Oogie :haw:

The idea is to get a value-free assessment of the glass while still sounding natural. The whole idea about the glass test in pop culture and stuff is basically to see if a person thinks positively or negatively by saying the glass is half full or half empty. Only, in English at least and probably most languages really, it's kinda hard to impossible to describe anything without any value judgements that either reveal the speaker's disposition or influence the listener's disposition. So the attempt at a value-free assessment while still sounding natural invariably ends up sounding like "the glass is half full" anyway whereas something more explicit like "the glass' liquid content is 50%" is something nobody would ever say.
