A NES demake of my favorite touhou game (for some weird reason). Really nice!

[@gordonsmith6784]

15:32 I can't believe someone actually made that sprite.

[@kyshotkysbitgame123.9]

NES Touhou Reiiden Music is at Good 8 Bit style

[@kyshotkysbitgame123.9]

This game is great I play this game

[@ASE-PRL]

Interesting demake

[@DrillimationSystems]

You should give the demake a try (and do a video on it).

[@ASE-PRL]

@@DrillimationSystems I might, few things in it I don't mesh with though.

[@ASE-PRL]

I've played through both routes just now on Lunatic, this needs a lot of work in it's current state. Why remove the slide? It's a pivotal part of the game

[@DrillimationSystems]

@@ASE-PRL Well, it is in there. The controls slightly differ than the original. To slide, you have to push the B button while you're moving. If you just push the B button while you're standing still, all Reimu will do is swing her goei.

[@ASE-PRL]

@@DrillimationSystems The build I have does not have it.

[@Aizen_Ezk]

wow this is great. How long did it take you to do it? hehehe my English is bad, sorry...

[@DrillimationSystems]

It took me two months to develop the demake.

[@Aizen_Ezk]

​@@DrillimationSystems you just did? or did they help you?... I'm sorry if my english is bad I'm using a translator on some parts hehehe ñ_ñ

[@DrillimationSystems]

@@Aizen_Ezk Almost the entire game was done singlehandedly by me. I did reuse code from Chuhou Joutai 1, which was in its late stages of development at the time of this game's development.

[@Aizen_Ezk]

@@DrillimationSystems that's awesome, keep it up. Greetings from Argentina...

[@IkaraPopsicle]

Transparency with the score board? how?

[@DrillimationSystems]

I used a different background color. That's why World 4 of Jigoku uses brown instead of red. Same thing goes for Makai as well.

[@MysterionLL-]

There's a nes rom for this?

[@DrillimationSystems]

The game exists as a Windows EXE, but anyone can adapt the game into an NES ROM, as the game's source code is open source. It's available on GitHub.

[@nasrinatiyeh]

This isn't an NES Demake, as it's a computer program.

[@nerd0Chija]

But even if it didn't get programmed and run on the original Famicon/NES, they were doing anything to be as authentic to this hardware as possible.
