> There was no February.
> Now then, once again snow has suddenly fallen and it's gotten cold this year, but it's finally starting to feel like spring a little.
> So, I'll be participating in the Hakurei Shrine Yearly Festival (Reitaisai) again this year.
> This year's product will be "Touhou Project #13: Touhou Shinreibyou [Mausoleum of Divine spirits] ~Ten Desires." (trial version)
> Touhou has finally made it to number 13 (not that there's been much fuss about it being #13). When I think how long I've been releasing one work a year, there sure have been a lot of different game systems, haven't there?
> I've added a few things that will make the game system a bit more complicated in order to keep the difficulty level down a bit.
> Basically, the story is "Suddenly a large number of spirits appear - the type that are called divine spirits! A young girl appears to investigate, knowing this can't be left unchecked."
> The main characters include Reimu and Marisa as usual, as well as Sanae, who's trying to learn to use divine spirits effectively, and Youmu, who's here to deal with any divine spirits that aren't under her control.
>
> One of my goals is to make it fun to just beat all the enemies even on lower difficulty levels, so I'm releasing a trial version to see how it went.
>
> Watch out for our advanced "business as usual"!
>>6451 Either that or a ZUN screw up; wouldn't be the first time it's happened (MoF Marisa B, the general low quality of Marisa's types in SA, etc).
>>6455 Perhaps, but people are betting more on Mima.
>>6453 Easier to look at/new gameplay functions? For all we know he might have gotten suggestions on how useful that was to people. And it'd be useful to western fans due to how their methods of getting the games don't have a manual.
I'm liking the fact that the life meter is hearts. It was a bit awkward for both lives and bombs to be stars. And as another said: Fuck yeah, Spell Practice is back.
I'm surprised no one pointed out the bizarre icons on the lower left of the screenshots. Any predictions on what the gimmick is going to be this time?
>>6460 you're acting like she hasn't been in many games in general when Sakuya has. PCB, IN,PoFV, IaMP, SWR/12.3. She never steps into an incident unless it's affecting the mansion directly.
Now Youmu's a natural choice for a game like this as part of her job is managing ghosts.

>>6458 Just like we knew who would be in the last game?
Hi! I'm free, free to confront the little woman who banished me, Reimu.
Hi, Everybody, and I'm free to reward you, little mortal, with these Aerosmith tickets.
You'll be getting backstage passes,
You'll get to meet SOUND HOLIC and the whole band.
This Friday at the Coliseum.
Thanks for getting me out of there.
By the way, I'm gonna have to kill you. (pause)
I'll be right back with the traffic and weather together.
