Your dream Touhou game

[SupahVee1234]

If you could combine stages from all the Touhou games to create the best possible combination, how would you do it?

In my opinion:

Stage 1 : Touhou 08
Stage 2 : Touhou 10
Stage 3 : Touhou 11
Stage 4 : Touhou 11
Stage 5 : Touhou 11
Stage 6 : Touhou 11
Extra : Touhou 08

[Helion]

Stage 1: PCB
Stage 2: UFO (yes, I said it)
Stage 3: EOSD, and any other answer is unbiasedly wrong  :V
Stage 4: SA
Stage 5: IN
Stage 6: tie between SA and IN 6B
Extra: definitely IN

[Ragnarok]

Stage 1: Maybe UFO, dunno, don't really care for stage 1
Stage 2: MoF SPIN HINA SPIN!
Stage 3: can't pick nothing right? i don't like third stages -.-, maybe PCB or UFO dunno
Stage 4: SA since satori shows so many interessting spellcards, 2nd would be PCB Prismriver sisters ftw!
Stage 5: normally i'd say IN but i hate those damn rabbit fairys so it's PCB
Stage 6: SA, i really like utsuho^^, thought it was a close call
Extra: wasn't playing any, so either PCB IN or MoF, lets prefer IN Mokou ftw!

i don?t really have any favourite stages.
so... i get it would be any combo anyone would throw together.

as my favourite "game" for that matter, would be an arcade like Touhou game WITH TWO PLAYERS SAMULATIONSLY (player aimed bullets will be aimed at the one with the most score), and you can join any time during the game, DEUS EX MACHINE Style.

Also... Two types of Characters and shots: Main (Reimu,Marisa,Sakuya,...) and Partner (Remilia, Alice, Mima, Cirno, ...).
Main is the normal 0,00 - 0,95 Powered shot, then the Partner will add different options to you.
Also added to it, a Spell gauge instead of Bombs whice allow the player to use the Special Power of the Partner. When pushing the bomb button and letting it go before the gauge charges (in PoFV/PoDD Style) you will use a bomb and deplete the guage by one bar, but holding it and letting it charge up and letting it delplete more than 1 bar, will allow you to use thier special ability.

whoa... i think this is so off-topic... but still... this would be MY "dream touhou game"

[Seian Verian]

Stage 1: PCB
Stage 2: ...SA...
Stage 3: PCB
Stage 4: SA... But with Patchy as the boss~<3
Stage 5: MoF, but with Youmu as the boss (Wait what)
Stage 6: MoF with Yuyuko as the boss

...PCB comes pretty close to being my dream Touhou game to begin with actually...

Oh, also, Byakuren, Remi, and Marisa would be the protagonists :V ...Somehow...

[Solais]

Nah.

My dream Touhou game would have a long storyline, and five episodes with 50+ levels. Touhou Tyrian.

[Ghaleon]

Stage 1: EoSD...every time I play this, I'm reminded of the very first time I tried Touhou, it's a wonderful feeling.
stage 2: SA: music reminds me of playing Seiken densetsu 3 for the first time, I didn't stop until looking for watts to buy fuel for the cannon (and then I had that song stuck in my head all night long), the music is so similar to that cave's song. You have no idea how long I wanted to play SD3, like 10 years. When I finally did it was a dream come true.
stage 3: EoSD: I hate the stage actually, I just like fighting against hong, she's fun and colorful to fight against, yay.
stage 4: SA: I like the bg, and satori's music. Satori herself has some pretty patterns too.
stage 5: MoF, I don't like Sanae, but she's pretty fun to beat up, her music is nice too, and the stage isn't too shabby either.
stage 6: PCB. The stage is lame as fuck, but it's short, and well, Yuyuko makes up for it by feeling like the most epic boss fight in the series IMO.

[Furienify]

1: EoSD/Rumia. Nostalgia~
2: IN/Mystia. Music is great.
3: EoSD/Meiling. Music is great, again, and the fight is pretty fun. This was a hard choice but the only one that came to mind.
4: EoSD/Patchouli. Fun elemental magic, variety, challenging, pretty but not overly elaborate danmaku.
5: MoF/Sanae. Simple, fun, great stage music and design.
6: SA/Utsuho. Great music though I'm not stellar on the danmaku.

Scoring system: PCB/IN point-item-based.
Optional: Border mechanic.

[Ghaleon]

Sorry to be off topic, but I feel like I'm the only person who doesn't like Utusho's music. I mean, I like ALL the final boss music *ALOT*(actually UFO is fairly meh too)  except hers, which I don't even like compared to your average stage music! I mean yes, it does kinda say "nuke" as a song, but that doesn't change the fact it doesn't sound great IMO.

I just had to say it because of Furi's post, I'm so left out >=(. I wish Touhou fan's made Kanako remixes as often as stooopit utusho ones.

[Danielu Yoshikoto]

I wish [...] Kanako remixes [...]

I will do that after i got out off bed.

[Helion]

I want to give an honorable mention to SA stage 5 for having the best stage music in any Touhou ever.

[Helix ⑨]

Stage 1 : PCB
Stage 2 : EoSD
Stage 3 : MoF
Stage 4 : UFO
Stage 5 : PCB (OMG YOUMU!!1)
Stage 6 : PCB
Extra : Tough one, I was gonna say IN but I'm gonna have to go with EoSD because of FLANDRE. And the only extra stage I still consider hard after clearing.

Kinda weird I see no IN on my list

[Polaris]

Stage 1: Perfect Cherry Blossom
Stage 2: Mountain of Faith
Stage 3: Perfect Cherry Blossom
Stage 4: Imperishable Night
Stage 5: Mountain of Faith
Stage 6: Undefined Fantastic Object
Stage EX: Mountain of Faith

I apparently like a lot of stages in MoF and PCB... But UFO's final stage is definitely the best of all the final stages.

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

Stage 1: EoSD
Stage 2: PCB
Stage 3: MoF
Stage 4: MoF but with Patchy as the boss due to a magical accident
Stage 5: SA
Stage 6: IN Final B

Extra: PCB

Scoring system as a combination of MoF's faith chaining and SA's communication multiplier. Stages modified for said scoring system.

[Bananamatic]

1: EoSD
2: EoSD
3: EoSD
4: PCB
5: PCB
6: MoF or IN 6A.
EX: UFO

Scoring system EoSD, PCB engine.

[nintendonut888]

First off, NO HITBOX DIFFERENCES. Everyone has Reimu's hitbox.

Stage 1: UFO
Stage 1 boss: Orange
Stage 2: IN
Stage 2 boss: Kogasa
Stage 3: PCB
Stage 3 boss: PCB
Stage 4: LLS
Stage 4 boss: Yuki and Mai
Stage 5: EoSD
Stage 5 boss: Syou
Stage 6: LLS
Stage 6 boss: Byakuren
Extra stage: MS
Extra boss: Mugetsu and Gengetsu

Scoring method? LLS', which is the only one I like (not that I play for score anyway )

[Sabino]

Mainly for the music...
Stage1:UFO or MoF      I like Stage 1 musics that lets me feel happy
Stage2:SA                 That slightly sad feeling... addictive...
Stage3:IN or EoSD       Why is stage 3 music so awsome?
Stage4:Mof               Although I'm not a big Aya fan, gotta admit the stage and music are beyond words.
Stage5:SA or PCB       Since most of PCB music follow the theme I see PCB as a complete thing compared to others...
Stage6:EoSD or PoFV  I wish for the day that we get to see eiki in traditional touhou  style... than again imagining traditional
                               style last judgment can give you nightmares. 
Ex:IN or UFO             I'd also like to say SA but I see too many SA in  my list.

[Chainsaw Guitar]

Touhou UM series? do want. Though, I am quite contempt with what I have now.

1: EoSD
2: EoSD
3: EoSD
4: MoF
5: MoF
6: PCB
EX: MS

[shadowbringer]

Nah.

My dream Touhou game would have a long storyline, and five episodes with 50+ levels. Touhou Tyrian.

I think 30 is enough :p


as for my dream Touhou shmup.. CAVE and ZUN make a new, arcade Touhou game (or make a crossover. That would be cool :p)

[ebarrett]

1-6/EX: Mystic Square

[orinrin]

as for my dream Touhou shmup.. CAVE and ZUN make a new, arcade Touhou game (or make a crossover. That would be epic :p)

Fixed.

[Danielu Yoshikoto]

CAVE and ZUN make a new, arcade Touhou game

same as mine, or different?

[Sinner]

Stage 1: IN, without a doubt the best opening stage IMO.
Stage 2: PCB,  Legend of Tohno <3
Stage 3: MoF, Mainly for Nitori although Gensokyo that the gods loved is amazing too.
Stage 4: EoSD, Patchy's an awesome boss and both the themes for this stage are great.
Stage 5: I'd say UFO but Shou rapes me and not in a good way. I'd say IN.
Stage 6: PCB, Youmu as a midboss, the stage music and then Yuyuko/Border of Life, to me this is the perfect final stage
Extra: *shrug* I've never actually unlocked any extra stages so I can't say for sure.

[Menreiki]

1-6/EX: Mystic Square

I concur, my dream Touhou game has already been made. Subterranean Animism.

[Turtlesaur]

Stage 1: MoF + Wriggle
Stage 2: PCB + Mystia
Stage 3: MoF for having The Gensokyo the Gods Loved and Nitori.
Stage 4: MoF for having Fall of Fall and Aya.
Stage 5: SA all the way
Stage 6: PCB's short stage + Eirin/Kaguya
Extra: IN's stage + slightly easier Yukari

MoF's scoring/life/bomb system with PCB-style borders.

[shadowbringer]

same as mine, or different?

I think that it would be probably different, since CAVE's scoring systems are usually different.. (the charge system you've mentioned reminds me of Takumi games -- Giga Wing and Mars Matrix, though I'm more familiar with GW, where you have bombs and charged Reflect Barriers) .. I have no idea of what they would do, perhaps even try to adapt the gameplay of previous games (to help those who were more familiar to them) or not..

in b4 the game gets ported to consoles? :p
