It's been ages since we got a good fully fleshed out Touhou photo game. VD just wasn't it and Tri Focuser came out a little before that, 8 years ago. This game might not be as intrinsically complex as StB or DS, but it certainly has a lot of very interesting and fun ideas and grants some ways to help you out with some of the nastier patterns with the skills you can unlock. Here and then there will be patterns that might introduce some rather sillier stuff or have gimmicks that require you to first understand what is even going on. It can get quite frustrating, especially if you're not used to this kind of bullet hell gameplay, though there are also a couple hints for each scene to bring you on the right track. Sadly for me there also have been a couple performance issues which can be quite lethal in a bullet hell game, though in a scene based game like this it is not as tragic as you can mostly just restart to get back on track. And for a casual playthrough it should not matter too muc...

User Reviews
Developers thought to shut my mouth by banning me on game discussions page will be enough. Well, too bad for them. Pay attention. This game is WOKE. DEI backed pro-european product made by liberals for liberals and to brainwash non-liberals into liberals. Also game itself is pretty broken and unplayable in current state, so take caution before purchasing even if you're one of them. I WILL change my review, ofcourse, after some time passes and they fix their piece of code to have as less bugs and flaws as possible. (i am not very optimistic about that though) This review goal is: 1. To warn you about "nature" of people behind it. For example one look at Benji Tunez (this game' composer) YouTube channel and their community records will be more than enough. 2. To warn you about game' state right now (it's really messy and buggy). UPD: Oh, hello there, Iris-chan. I wish to remind you what there is only LGB. TQ+ are mental disorders and you should get some help before it's too late ;)
Ryann's the goaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat. Outside of that this is a really faithful Touhou game and is really enjoyable to play through (Though I suck at bullet hells)
