東方廻怪綺談 ～ Re:Mystic Square

[@VantasticK]

In case you're wondering why this isn't released, JynX said that he wants to get ZUN's blessing first but is too afraid to contact him.

[@AuroraFirestorm]

Seriously? Just *do it*

[@Tasoittaja]

source?

[@misery_shun]

@@Tasoittaja I think it was in one of three interviews JynX held, it's either 2015 one or 2017 one, 2021 didn't have it I checked

[@OldClassicGamer]

Can't somebody contact ZUN on JynX's behalf and explain this situation so that this can finally be released lol?

[@Kap01]

@@OldClassicGamer I mean, you’re somewhat big enough to try yourself, can’t you?

[@OrionoftheStar]

I gotta say, I'm a little disappointed in the background for the last spell card. I thought it was more impressive in the PC-98, where it showed the catastrophic damage to the surroundings the fight against her caused.

[@Bravidunno]

If the spellcard background was still there in the last spell then you wouldn't be able to see Makai on fire.

[@Dreigonix]

Here, it's just a flat plane. Meaning there is literally nothing left of Gensokyo. So it's more fitting with my Timeline Purge and Reconstruction headcanon...

[@Mr._Sherwood]

Yeah, I kinda wish that instead of the standard spell card background, it showed the blazing Pandæmonium.

[@kurzovarchives30]

All I saw was red.

[@Mr._Sherwood]

Exactly. Shinki was hurling so much at you that it was razing the surrounding area and setting Pandæmonium ablaze, hence why the background, in the original, steadily got redder and redder, until it shows the entire surrounding area on fire at her last attack.

Music also times well when she fires her lasers during devil’s recitation.

[@빅앵앵]

4:17

[@MaxArceus]

It's actually called "Devil's recitation" and the name refers to the fact that Shinki invented it, and Shinki could be considered a devil. Byakuren was locked up in Makai for over a thousand years. During that time she saw Shinki use that attack, and now she recites Shinki by using her attack.

[@AuroraFirestorm]

I think Devil's Recitation is the name of only Byakuren's card, because it's literally recounting what the "devil god" did.

[@idontevenknowanymore5510]

Eevster 72 Len'en only copies Touhou in its style, and that's the only thing these ones have in common. Len'en has a completely different story (which, in fact, is sometimes even more interesting and logical than what of touhou) and characters, so I have to disagree with your notion.

[@user-us7ri5us9f]

i don't even know anymore I meant gameplay wise, clone just means it has a slimier game play style, but len'en 4's going to change that.

And Yumeko's appearance was a really cool remind of the classic era of touhou where Sakuya/Youmu tries to stop you at all cost. Shinki is an awesome boss ! I really love the fight in Mystic Square, so this is really godly for me ! Shinki's probably my favorite 6th boss fight in touhou, it's kind of dramatic and spectacular at the same time. Her wings are impressive.

I kind of wish it used the older point/power system, i.e. point items= 1ups and power is out of 128 instead of 4.00. It was just better that way.

Don't forget that byakuren's spell is called "devil's recitation", and Shinki is considered by many to be the devil.

In the more recent touhou gmes, there is something called the 'point of collection' when you go above it you collect, all/most of everything on the screen. pause at 4:26 you see that black and white sphere? it's there but lower, so in short, when your character goes high on screen you get all/most powerups wherever they are.

[@joshuazhao]

I hope ZUN one day will remake the first five games, with the option of choosing between classic graphics and modern graphics. TH04 always freezes on me when I'm about to face Yuuka. Damn emulator.....
