BPoHC Mitsumo's Theme - Nightmare Syndrome

tfw "Mitsumo" isn't actually the name of the person, but the purple-eye-mirror-thingy.
---
"Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle" is the 4th game of the Len'en Project series, a danmaku series obviously inspired by Touhou. If you wanna download the full version, it's o'er there : www.freem.ne.jp...

[@Banim]

When you realize Mitsumo is not the child but the mirror... and the child is just a possessed vessel used to move around and speak who will later be consumed...

[@teakix6366]

Well the escalated quickly

[@ducklast_name4175]

Banim And the child is actually rotting away as it carries the mirror

[@kordianwasala2803]

And the child is starving, dried out, rotting and may die any second now, but mirror keeps it from dying and possesion is the only thing keeping Terumi alivr

[@ZerioYume]

Oh

[@Naudiz]

Life has many doors, Tsubakura-chan...

[@chuongnguyen3158]

And that’s one of them.

[@airem4113]

Suzumi kuzu you

[@Suika182]

*reads the bio in Len'en Shoutwiki* Oookay, now I see why the theme is so creepy. Also, finally a canon youkai that eats humans in Len'en (poor Terumi)

[@relightcharge9771]

It seems Yukari's gap had a child...

[@onyxvega7369]

Me, seeing Mitsumo/Terumi for the first time without any knowledge about Len'en: Aw...well that's one cute little girl right there! Me, now that I know more about Len'en and Mitsumo in particular: *O H*

[@flamentnagel]

this shouldn't be my favorite theme in the series, there are more emotional, impactful ones, more important character themes and more melodic stage themes.. but i think Mitsumo's mastered the art of sounding terrifying, but in a way that makes me want to dance. and of all the themes in Len'en, this is the one that consistently just shows up in my head. so... *gets possessed by a mirror*

[@touentheretard]

Hello? You There?

[@IThinkThereforeIAint]

Me too dude from three years ago who probably doesn't enjoy this theme as much and probably has better things to do!! Let's be friends

[@helutrope]

I like to call Mitsumo "scary eye mess". And this theme is good... ALL the themes are good, damn this demo is fabulous!

[@irisirisirisirisirisiris]

*casually wondering how i got here* well hey at least i found myself a new ringtone yes i seriously set this as my ringtone don't judge i liek it

[@juliusbelmont8094]

Well it has pleasant tune also welcome to len'en project.

[@ToraeMoegiiro]

Woah,6 years late! You made a good choice,finding this song out in the wild

[@moonbeamrondo]

*f e a r* This theme is.....unlike anything I've heard before in Len'en -aside from M Theory maybe-. I didn't know how to feel about it at first, but I'm liking it a lot more now. Though it's still a very strange theme~ -Mitsumo really reminds me of one of Mikochimaru's characters for some reason lol-

[@helutrope]

FantasyInaba *WHO.* DID I CREATE A SCARY EYE MESS TO- oh wait, Miharu right? :'

[@moonbeamrondo]

Mikochimaru Yeah, Miharu~ Though mainly because of the purple eye thingy I guess ^^; .....Just what IS Mitsumo, anyway? I really wanna know more about the new Len'ens.....

[@helutrope]

Oh me too, me too... For now, they are a scary eye mess.

[@abarette_]

tfw Stage 1 boss has one of the best themes

[@JonathanKanelis]

The gong gap kid with a purple mirror on their face.

[@blanctree]

Shinyoumaru with nether portal

[@omochikaerihanyuu]

those eyes I didn't think I was playing higurashi.

[@defaultdunce]

this theme is an absolute clusterfuck. I LOVE IT!!

[@p3bblez]

one of the best themes i've heard from BPoHC tbh

[@inactive_ina]

I LOVE THIS THEME SO MUCH ESPEciALLY AT 0:43

[@midnafan132]

This demo is really sweet, but my god there is so much stuff going on in it. And none of it is in English... I can't even begin to look at the upgrade system, cause I don't understand any of it. But from what I can tell, there are 1 possible Haze boss, 1 possible Brilliant, and 2 possible neutral bosses per stage... and a secret boss? Makes me wonder how the hell stages 4-6 are going to work. And the Extra stage? I'm so pumped.

[@Tresman101]

You can change the in game text by changing the corresponding .txt files. Just copy and past these, you can always go back and change them once someone makes a real translation. I didn't make any of these. Character Upgrades/Locations pastebin.com/nLEiFTKW If you feel like changing the images yourself, you can also see what events are currently happening. Event Names pastebin.com/M46PvRAu What Events Do pastebin.com/M46PvRAu

[@midnafan132]

Is there a special way I should be putting these things into the text files? When I do it I just see the title of the skill in game change, but the bullet points at the bottom are still in Japanese.

[@Tresman101]

midnafan132 Yeah, sorry, that confused me for a while. In the upgrade menu you have 3 screens which you access by pressing left and right (as you know): the first is characters, the second is upgrades, the third is skills. To unlock a character's skill you have to put 5-10 points in that character's upgrade. Until you unlock the skill, it will only show the first line and a "locked" message. Once you unlock the skill whatever else you put in the .txt file will show up. There's another .txt file you can edit to change the locked message but I don't remember what it's called. By the way, each character has 2-3 .txt files in the folder. Make sure you write the upgrade effect in the upgrade file and the skill effects in the skill files. If a character has 2 skills they'll have 2 skill files.

[@midnafan132]

Oh ok, so the skills automatically are granted when I put money into the upgrades? So are there text files for the upgrades then? I won't change the lock message then if that's all that means. No point. Do you know if there are text files for the dialogue yet (I highly doubt it at least), or where I put the text for the events? Which I'm assuming are randomly generated. The Lumen-esque lasers and the Left and Right control flipping I mean. So do you know how the skills for the bosses come into play then? This is the strangest Touhou-Len'en game I have ever played. But I'm super pumped for it. I wonder if a fan translation will be put together, unlike for the first 3 games where no such ingame translation exists? Unless there is one and I'm just not aware of it? Thanks a bunch by the way. I really appreciate your help.

[@Tresman101]

There are text files for upgrades. Look in your game folder. Go to text_dat/upgrade. For each boss there should be a file that says skill_(boss's name)_00 and a file that says upgrade_(boss's name). Each player character should have 2 skills and 1 upgrade. Those are the files you edit. Skills aren't automatically granted, you still have to pay for them, you just can't even think about buying them until you have enough upgrades for that character. It's like, once you buy 5 upgrades for Yabusame you are then able to buy one of Yabusame's skills. The text files for the dialogue can be edited but there isn't an english translation yet. It's still way too early lol. The reason there was no english patch for the other games is because Jynx uses really weird coding so nobody could edit them. But it seems he noticed the issue- he made it extremly easy to edit text in this game, as you can see. I am 90% certain that there will be an english patch at some point. There aren't any text files for events, the events are in images. You have to change the images in MS paint or photoshop or something. It's a real pain but it does make the game much more enjoyable. I'd just send you the ones I made but my computer has some internet issues (commenting on my phone), sorry '^_^ Skills and upgrades from players requires that the player be in your team (ie. Yabusame, Tsubakura, and Shion can use Yabu's skills, but Fumikaido, Iyozane, and the eggplant girl can't). Some skills require the skill's owner to be in a certain slot. For example, to use Yabusame's skill you must have Yabusame in the main player slot.Details for each skill are in the pastebin. Skills and upgrades from bosses activate once you buy them. They apply to all playable characters with no special requirements. You can turn skills and upgrades on or off, by the way.

[@minhquanle3339]

Is it normal when I met her 6 times in my first run?

[@kordianwasala2803]

(A little bit late) As a midboss, yes. As a boss, no. I fought Souko like at least 2 times per stage (except for first and last)

[@LENK64]

Sukuna

[@hikari2326]

It looks like Shinmyoumaru Sukuna owo

[@sigmoon]

owo what's this ?

[@sophiethecoolanimegirl2258]

Perhaps it's Shinny's long lost twin

[@hikari2326]

Well, only my opinion~

[@juliusbelmont8094]

Well Mitsumo maybe consumed sukuna and is now possessing her.

[@kordianwasala2803]

Story behind Terumi: Sukuna somehow got to Mugenri, without any of her stuff, became homeless, changed her name and got posessed by a mirror. BTW, does mirror know name of kid it posessed?

[@SHinierthennyourforehead]

damn this is a cool youkai

[@touentheretard]

My Opinion On The Phases: 0:00 Nice Unless You Turn Volume On 100% (pls dont do it your ears will explode) 0:21 Sounds Crazy But Cool 0:43 Its Like Phase 1 But Boosted And Made Better, I Like It 0:54 BOOSTED AND DOUBLED PHASE 3 THIS IS FIRE 1:04 Like Phase 4 But Phase 2, Nice 1:15 The Basic Rhytm Of The Song But Slowed Down Sounds Good 1:36 Phase 2 1:58 Phase 1 2:20 Phase 5 2:31 Phase 1 But Silent 2:51 The End

[@touentheretard]

All Phases Combined Is Fire

[@Sophietta16]

It's Sasami Demomiya (From Nansei)

[@Raizdorf]

Eh. The piano in the background sounds like Heian Alien.

[@hackerbagel]

Baby yukari

[@VLAD-yu6ul]

Reminds me of SONIC R's theme (Can You Feel The Sunshine)

[@user-ly2nx7ss2x]

[@knighterisk]

[@neoticrin3836]

xyr is an interesting youkai.

[@tamhoa7544]

Mitsumo hogs the chat :P

[@ToraeMoegiiro]

I just noticed that at some point there are noises akin to heartbeats or footsteps..

[@LughandRay]

Have you found any bosses other than the ones you've posted so far and Kurohebi?

[@sigmoon]

Alexander Ambriz Still working on it. Don't worry, I'll upload the whole OST, although I can't guarantee if I'll be able to upload it all before tomorrow.

[@LughandRay]

Okay. Thanks for uploading the OST.
