I am bad at touhou 6

I keep forgetting about this game and coming back to it every few months. Years ago, I actually did manage to "beat" EoSD on hard (not 1cc. iirc I basically got a p clean run up to remilia and then just. tanked a whole lot and used a bunch of continues there).
Never been able to come close to beating it in the years since, and I assumed it's either bc I was just really rusty on non-platformer bullethells, or bc I used controller (my usual preference, with joy2key) back then [I'm trying to force myself to play at least the og touhou games with keyboard bc I don't wanna bother with the setup].
Might sound stupid, but, it took me this long to realize "oh wait. I can use bombs." No joke, I just, completely forgor. So, yeah, that explains it lmao.
