So somewhere along the line I forgot this wasn’t a blog JUST FOR TOUHOU. Nothing has been happening with Touhou lately, so have this.
Yeah yeah haven’t posted in a while, that doesn’t matter right now. WATCH THIS.
So I stumbled upon this nifty looking doujin game, Croixleur today. My initial reaction was, “what? where was this?” after seeing C76 in the title. And of course, after seeing gameplay, I immediately wanted to try it out. So if it mentioned C76, it must have a demo somewhere right? Evidently not!! I’ve looked around, and have seen nothing of the sort. At the very least I’ll be keeping tabs on this one!
Edit: Oops, forgot to edit this entry with the new site link! Since it’s being taken over by GameKiss there’s a new website, etc. You can find it here.
Valkyrie Sky is a shmup MMO made by NCSoft. You can create a group up to 3 people to depart onto stages. The main three classes (as far as I know, anyway) are swordsman, mage, and archer. The music is top notch as well. It’s done by dBu Music, who is most easily recognizable from his Touhou arrangement albums.
I’ve been waiting on this ever since the earlier beta test in January, so I’ll certainly be playing this game come October 21st. I’ve been playing Dungeon Fighter Online a lot lately, and have been having fun with that (regardless of the bullshittery done by Nexon America), but I might have to give it a rest when Valkyrie Sky rolls around.

A Japanese speaking friend of mine, @azurarok on Twitter, took a look at this post, and had some things to note on the interview. Here’s what he had to say.
“Well the out of time bit I can understand. It’d been amazing using Nitori and her machines though.
Also, he never says UFO’s overall difficulty is easy. Just that Laser Marisa is the easiest to use in it.
Actually, that might just be a quick remark by the interviewer from what it looks like on the article
Also, it seems like this was done through radio and the guy who wrote the stuff out couldn’t tune in some parts.
Like the “ignores ideas outside Japan” bit. Apparenty he’s had an offer from overseas, and was about to talk about it but the radio cut the details off.
The Mokou/Kaguya/Wriggle/Nitori bit, I actually don’t see him explaining why they weren’t put in at all.
He might’ve meant he didn’t have enough time around with Scarlet Weather Rhapsody since he notes Fatty Catfish and Meiling were to be in SWR. Apparently Tenshi actually replaced Catfish.
And that’s really just about what I can get from it. They’re generally drunk, jumping around on different subjects.”
Original entry after the break.

Been slump on updating due to too much nothing going on. So for the sake of posting here’s a horrible thing that’s even more horrible when it gets stuck in your head, which it will.
But so it isn’t entirely in vain, here’s something good that profited from that video.
About a month old, but it’s the first I’ve seen of it. It makes you wonder what Touhou would be like as a shounen. (bad) Not the best quality, but decent (hurr K-ON) VNs, and pretty entertaining action. Of course, Marisa makes the whole video worth it.
Since it’s already Cirno Day in most parts of the world, this is Doctor NK wishing you all a wonderful Cirnocalypse. All hail ⑨.
All hail ⑨.
I will perhaps later create something nonsensically brilliant tomorrow, but for some strange reason, I’m incredibly tired!
Surprising, right? Thanks to the fine folks at Gensokyo.org, here’s your fully translated UFO goodness incredibly early. Hopefully 12.3 gets translated pretty soon!!

..and it works! But only with Hamachi, until I can manage a forwarded port. For those of you who don’t know, SHOUTcast is an audio stream, that runs through Winamp. I currently have a teststream running, if anyone would like to try it out. Remember, you need Hamachi and Winamp to listen.

Right now it’s just a bunch of C76 stuff. Any and all feedback is helpful!
Edit: Test run complete! Very successful. However, I’ll try to get a port forwarded in order to do this much easier in the future.
