I can't recommend VX/VX Ace either.
I did this game on it beacuse I was very experienced with RPG Maker, but there certainly are better engines to make a side-scrolling A-RPG.

You can look in the scripts if you want but don't expect too much, my programming isn't neat and without comment. :p
How do you use the elemental fragments 4/4 should make something right?

How do you use the elemental fragments 4/4 should make something right?

You bring them to the altars after you gather 4/4 each to their respective, fire, water, wind, earth & void ((or whatever called))

if you have all 4 fire fragments, bring them to the fire altar and so on ~

Have fun ^^~
I wonder if u can make touhou wandering souls 2 that have other touhou characters ..good if make it tho..i liked the game to much ^^..it would be nice if u make touhou with all characters
Honestly, inserting 108 more characters in one game to be playable in an action game is very nuts. Even if you can, the developer must sacrifice their uniqueness :(
Any tips how to evade suika ibuki 4 sakes of destiny?
I am playing on hard chaos mode.
Yeah, this spellcard is unusual.

Watch the color of the bullets and touch the sake bottle of the same color, you'll be temporarily invincible.

ATK+1000%, Critical Strike Power+1000%. You can pretty much kill evrything in one hit with this. :p



The final version of the game has been released!

Many thanks to Kumquat, who did nearly everything in this update.

Here's a list of the noteworthy changes:

- Both the English and French texts have been revised.
- Nowhere Dimension's secret stage is now harder (enemies that come from a red vortex will now permanently have the strengthened status).
- Status effects are now cleared when entering or leaving a stage.
- Maid Fairy #2 can now drop the Unflappable Amulet instead of Youmu's weapon.

If you already have version 1.01, you can simply update it by merging these files with the project:

what function does 'supercombo' have?
I want to know What does supercombo mean.
It increases the effectiveness of some of your basic attacks in various ways (power, number of projectiles, additional effects...).

What function does 'Survivor effect' have?

I really want to know it. thank you.
The girl with Survivor effect gets 15 sec of every beneficial status effects except invincibility if you choose her to replace a character that just died.
She gets 30 sec if the two other girls are dead.
I f*ng love this action game. It's my addiction non stop action. XD
I got 2 earth fragments in the forest of magic, but I can not get the other two in which stage I can get others?
You usually get them randomly or i do not know directly how you get them but if you get enough wandering souls you can latter buy them in the shop.

thank you XD
and enjoying msg someone could tell me if you have any chance to launch a version with 2 players? this is the my first touhou game I'm almost 60% XD
to playing the whole day so good this game is.

Nope, I won't update this game anymore, I'm done with it.

Besides, the game is already close to the maximum graphics capabilities of the RMVX engine, a 2 player mode would cause huge framerate loss.
It's true that it would have been awesome though. ^^
